    TLG earn $$$$$$$
    $$$$$$ built fully automated plant
    Automated plant = less workers
    Less workers = less salary pay out!

    But why Lego still so expensive ler???

    Apart from maintenance as bobby has replied, I guess the demand for LEGO product has significantly increased worldwide throughout the years.

    I think the reason Lego is expensive is due to what they used to make Lego; oil.

    Got to wonder what will happen to TLG when there is no more oil Cry

    Lol, TLG is trying to use recycle plastic. People hope they don't screw around with the quality of the bricks though.
