Onyx_6 Posted March 28 They are tempting, but I cannot seem to figure out how many you get with your purchase. If you get all 4 base plates and the connectors for $25, that is a good deal; if you are only getting some if that, then maybe it isn’t. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hellpop Posted March 28 I wonder if Lego would consider revisiting the X-mansion. It doesn't seem any more impractical than the Disney Castle or the $800 Millenium Falcon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You get 4 base plates and a bunch of the brick connectors. I will say these are not Lego quality. They aren't bad (I have a few different sizes and shapes myself) but be aware they aren't top of the line. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think that Disney and StarWars probably have a bigger fan base, and therefore can more easily be pitched as a money making ventures. An $800 X-men product is probably a much tougher sell.

I'm sure Disney and Marvel have some interesting plans for their Fox acquisition that includes merchandising the hell out of all things X-Men. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

An $800 X-men product is probably a much tougher sell. It wouldn't be that much. The castle is $350, and I don't think it would be more bricks than that. Still a hefty price tag, but I don't really think they'd have much problem moving these sets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I reckon this set would be at least twice the size, with more minifigs. if not $800, i think it would have been over $600. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've been buying up those bootlego figures like a mad man. Official product would be very welcome. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
