How much do we have to pay John Deere to repair this when it breaks?

You're worried about that? The original assembly fee is outrageous!

Website showed the right price when I added to my cart.

Pretty nice looking set, but I may be over budget for LEGO this year. Was probably the case last year.

I thought new laws gave you the "Right to Repair" your own Lego John Deere.

Thanks for the heads up, I just ordered it. It's $200 on the Lego website which is overpriced for this set without motor functionality, but at $140 I'll bite.

What ever happened to the power functions and why don't these large sets come with them anymore?

Because Lego decided to charge more for less. Why include the power functions when they can charge us suckers for it separately?

It does come with power functions but in this case the motor turns the pneumatic pump. I remember a set with similar features when I was a kid, not john deere branded though.

When I was a kid, if your Lego tractor lost a piece you could just replace with any extra Lego you had lying around. Try that now and your Lego tractor will stop working and you'll have to wait weeks for an authorized John Deere Lego builder to come out to your house with their proprietary diagnostic tool. They claim it's for security and safety reasons.
