Re:a simple lego block costs 1 cent to make (Score 1)

I am an expert on injection moulding. Making one Lego brick is easy. Making 200 million to exactly the same dimensions and colour and with no errors within a completely automated process is extremely difficult. Throw on top of that the requirement that those bricks you make today have to grip to ones made 30 years ago - tight enough not to come apart, not too tight that kids need a wrench - and it becomes a real mind boggling challenge. Just about anyone that knows anything about injection moulding recognise Lego as being up with the very best in the world at what they do.
