For example, I'd love to use the malevolence ass a base for building an better malevolence or invisible hand.
And I recently got into the modular building scene, so having a discontinued modular building sold for 1/3 of its original sale price when adjusted for inflation is a pretty good deal.
The biggest appeal for leppin kits to me is the price. Normally because I am rather poor and I have to spend most of my money on tuition and books, it is very hard for me to afford a normal lego set, especially now with how expensive the brand has gotten and the general decline in the quality of sets does not make me want to buy lego. But with Lepin, I could buy 3 replicas of a successful set for the price of 1 crappy set.
Pic Related costs 50 bucks. It was my most recent lego purchase, but I felt mild buyers remorse. Because even though I enjoyed the set, I felt like my money was wasted on a kit that should be sold for 35 to 40 dollars. (And I bought two)
