Highlights
Quality
The robie house has an incredible amount of detail with the small brick parts.
The only complaint i have is with the base design.
Its a bit tricky, even with the large instruction manual, but was 7 hours of excitement for me.
My one star off is for some annoyances with the instructions/assembly.
Price
Everything about the piece is wonderful; except the price.
If your reaction to the price is d n!
I meet all three descriptions, so although the price was a bit steep, to me it was worth it.
Packaging/appearance
Nothing was opened, but the packaging was slightly damaged (slightly).
Initial design costs, dies, materials, producton, packaging, great instruction booklet, etc.
Competitiveness
Most of the parts are of the red 1x2 plate variety, which you can get in bulk on a lego marketplace like bricklink for a lot less.
Let's not lose sight of the other aspects involved such as:1.
