Great read. I for one always thought that licensed sets carry a premium, but stats would show otherwise.

There already was a thread about this article. I merged your post into it.

Excellent work. It must have took you quite some time to do the calculations, but it is worth it. Thanks!

Is that the one in Legoland CA?

I've seen it and took a pic of it.

I was slightly disappointed, that it is attached to the table; I wanted to know first-hand the weight of that beast.

I've been keeping track of prices on lego.com (UK of GB & NI), a few months back they stopped selling for a bit. After that some prices changed:

Full 1×1 from 6p to 8p

Full 1×2 from 10p to 11p

but not all bad news as

Slim 1×1 down from 5p to 4p

So 1/2 price of full 1's now instead of nearly as much. Which I think is a better way.
