I don’t understand the interest in lego sets. They were great to me as a kid because they were cheap and you could build whatever. But now as an adult they do have these expensive ass sets that always look fugly as hell and you really can only build what the box shows as the pieces are custom to the set
Completely agree. I loved Legos as a kid but now they suck. Why would I want to buy a set that can realistically only be used with that set. It’s way too complicated. I want to dump them all in a bin then build whatever I want and not have to sort through all these useless niche fucking pieces.

While you may not like the new sets, I don’t think Lego has ever been cheap (source on price over time.
I think as kids, we just never realize how much things actually cost.
I only remember getting lego buckets and occasionally a lego design book. This is in the early 80’s
Both exist though and it’s surprising the number of pieces they reuse and adapt just by changing their color
