That sounds like an issue with the stores you go to. Even in big department stores I see generic Lego sets (City, Technic, Duplo, etc) next to licensed ones.
- Freak_NL 3y agoYeah, Duplo, City, and Technic are the basic ranges any toy store is bound to have.
- bombcar 3y agoHalf the Duplo and Technic are now licensed, but I suspect the Technic licenses may be nearly free or even paid to Lego - they’re selling Ford cars to Ford fans. The licenses obviously don’t cost a ton as the price per piece on the Duplo is comparable to other “sets” - the “big box of parts” is cheaper as always, but I wonder how much of that is “we out left over pieces and spend no design time”.
