And most of them come from the San Diego Comic Con. This is wild.

Maybe it's because I've only gotten into Lego recently, but I don't really see the point in the minifigs. I just want to build cool stuff.

Thats also true, but just one rare minifig can go for $7k. Idk of any modern sets that go for that much.

Thankfully, I never got into LEGOs (or Minecraft) to warrant such shitty prices.

Are these people kidding?

The prices are high because of the very unique and detailed manufacturing process and how dedicated they are to quality control. Im not saying they arent expensive, but theres a reason for it. Any complaints a customer has with a set they buy, like a missing piece or sticker sheet, are very quickly addressed by LEGO.

Literally just round holes going into round pegs. ('-' )

"That'll be seven thou-thous, please."

Ain't no way people actively choose to buy this shit.

The minifigs are like half the fun of the Star Wars sets, imo.

Thats a bit reductionist. Legos manufacturing process is really down to a science. Its very much not just holes and pegs. I recommend watching their documentary that explores it all.

some people collect only the minifigs and run them all up and down their walls

as such they NEED to complete the collection and will pay any price

there is enough of these people such that they compete for the few available minifigs making the price high
