So Lego is for the environment is it?...LIES! If Lego was so environmental they would bring back 9v system so we dont get through half a ton of batteries per year, or at least bring back the rechargeable battery that they removed for some reason. We now know these new wheels are utter garbage and that its better to get the old style wheels and put bearings on them.
I’m honestly waiting for your payment if the Castle at the minifigure scale would be a 4 m one (twice as large). You understood only 14 rooms are finished and furnished in the real castle. My design is a work of art, for the love of building and replicating, not for playability.
It is not the designer that is setting the price, it is the 3rd party market of bricks. Using the Rebrickable inventory option, it determined that the price for all new bricks was about $4700. The piece count is approximately 57000+ pieces. At the accepted Lego kit price per piece of 10 cents per piece, then the price for all would be approximately $5700. $4700 is a lot better than the going rate. Using the other approved China links in the description, they price it at approximately $2700 for China bricks. Even better than the 10 cent per piece of the accepted rate.
I saw this at Brickworld Chicago 2024 this week. Very impressive. Having been the Neuschwanstein, viewing it made it more relatable to the actual detail and scale of this model.
Thanks for your appreciations! Having the chance of visiting the Real Castle and also to see my work of art in Chicago, makes you a specialist in Neuschwanstein!
Would be so much easier sell for me if it included build variants like earlier Icons cars. Build it as either the flashy 5000QV or the original clean LP400, without the wing and fender flares. Also perhaps different color.
