there are tons of them in China, you can buy them on AliExpress, though that are expensive there for 1/2-1/3rd of Lego

but you wouldn't believe if I told you how much it cost in China, you can buy sets with hundreds of pieces for like 3-4 euros, I couldn't believe it when I saw the prices, Lego prices are highway robbery for piece of plastic

and don't tell me about paying for their creativity, there are alternate builds made by fans for free which are better than the original sets
