Minifigs are very expensive to produce, compared to "regular" bricks. (However, the size of the pieces has less to do with the price than the actual amount of plastic.)

Creator sets have a lot more pieces than minifigure sets at the same price.

The Ultimate Lego Death Star II set is now onsale for $200 USD down from $270 USD...it has 3417 pieces. So 386 pieces cost $200 USD? The Ultimate Millenium Falcon at $500 USD has 5195 pieces so that would be $100 for 1392 pieces... a far better deal and the Falcon is cooler (I have it sitting in my movie room on it's own table while my other SW Legos look on with envy). I didn't buy the Ultimate DSII (and won't for even $200), so definately not buying this one. I'd buy another Falcon (to paint it black) first. No idea what Lego is thinking with a $400 price tag on it. $400? The Ultimate Lego Death Star II set is now onsale for $200 USD down from $270 USD…it has 3417 pieces. So 386 pieces cost $200 USD?

I'm beginning to get really fed up with this company, where I can only buy half the products they advertise for on their website.
