    I heard they’re retiring that this year and I’m devastated. U can’t afford the $800 millennium falcon, much less make room for it.

      Believe it or not Keynesian economic researchers at Stanford did a study in 2014 that concluded the eight-hundo Millennium Falcon lego is exponentially more unattainable than similarly priced consumer goods and they coined this market phenomena “Meesa-Utility-Theory”

    I literally went through this pyramid while standing in the LEGO store a couple years ago. Was like, yeah you know what, this will bring me a lot of joy for years both building it and looking at it. Also it was right after it came back in sale and they were $1000 on eBay. So I was like yeah I need to buy it now! So yeah anyway I spent $800 on a LEGO set lmao
