Aliexpress has what you are looking for at amazing prices.
Their Lego F1 cars are like 30 bucks and are amazing.

There are some cheap knock off alternatives.

Prices are obscene and I am sort of glad that they have outgrown Legos, they're more geared towards young adults with expendable funds if my local Lego store is the same across the country.

You’re not entitled to Legos.

They get a lot more expensive than that

I agree but if they are for actual kids and they are going to end up being hit with a tennis racket and run over with the mower 6 months after they put them together well………

A lot of those sets arent meant for display and not for kids imo. Minas Tirith is going to be over 8k pieces. I would only put it together once

Believe it or not, Lego prices have actually remained relatively stable over the years.
The general rule of thumb is assume $0.10/piece

Took my kids legos across the street to neighbors kid in 2021, tub probably weighed 75#’s. Hope to never step on another Lego block again.

I’m in agreement. Kids toys should not be in the hundreds

Yep, Legos have barely gone up. They were always expensive.

they have totally reinvented their product and are making a fortune

No shite. We are taking our kids on their once in a lifetime trip to Disney innMay and I thought it would be cool to get the Disney castle Lego set. It’s $400. F all that.

Pretty sure most of the cost is in the licensing.
I used to manage imports and exports for Lego into the United States. You’d be floored at the mark ups on unit cost. It was staggering to see landed cost va what is charged to the consumer.
