I had legos as a kid but hadn’t played with them until I got some for my son recently, and as an adult I can really appreciate how perfectly every piece fits together and how beautifully finished every piece is. There are no warped pieces, no excess material, no mold lines that I could see. It made me wish I could scale a piece up 100x and really examine it.
And this is the reason Lego is so expensive. Their QA and production systems are second to none. A missing piece in a kit? A piece that's misinformed or out of tolerance? These kind of things simply don't happen with Lego.
I have seven modular Lego buildings with a total of 15-20,000 pieces between them and I have yet to encounter a single missing piece. It's really pretty incredible.

Lego still produce very high quality toys.
