| The three sets that have sold out so far have reeled in almost $20,000,0000 if
they have a production max of 30,000 of each. I hope they see the demand for
castle is strong.

And that is without the unsold out sets in the calculation?
200mil+ in a few days is insane..

1. It’s twenty millions, not two hundreds.
2. TLG’s revenue is around $10 billions per year (DKK 64.6 billions in 2022).
That’s $27 millions a day. So, with BDP, they are making about a day’s sale
in a day.
Best case: if buying from BDP is just a plus and not a move,— that is, if all
the people who are buying BDP sets aren’t choosing between buying BDP and buying
something else from LEGO—, as there’s 3 BDP Series per year, that will make 3
days more revenue per year, so +0.82%.

| It is a big earner for the designers though. 5% of net sales. Even if they take
off VAT and delivery costs to get the net sales figure, for the big sets it could
still be about 10 years salary depending on occupation. That will be a hefty
tax bill too.

Yep

|
IIUC, it should just be taxed as income here, as a salary even, though a one-time,
hefty salary 
Nice problems to have

| LEGO knows there is demand for Castle which is why we have gotten sets like the
Lion Knights Castle and the (soon to be released) Medieval Market set. LEGO also
sees that the demand for Castle is generally comming from AFOLs and adults who
want detailed sets with lots of cool parts and not from kids or others looking
for the sets you get in a typical Castle theme.
Plus LEGO already has (in their eyes at least) themes such as Harry Potter that
fill the spot in their lineup where a full non-licensed Castle theme might go.
