$136 -$2200 a month?

Did you know Michael Jordan makes between $10 bucks to $99 Trillion a month.

But this isn’t a fact about Lego, i’ve been duped !
No but seriously this supposed “fact” is based on very rough estimations of an unofficial website, and tbh, i’m not sure people are really interested in TTV’s income…


Did you know ? Lego has produced at least 48 lego bricks in it’s entire career !

If mini-tires are counted as full ones Lego would be the world’s largest tire company.

Wants to make a topic about Lego facts, starts out with a fact about TTV…

Lol! Don’t worry, I’m not getting on your case or anything.

Anyways, I got a pretty cool fact I picked up from a Lego magazine once. Apparently the original Lego bricks were completely hollow.

I didn’t realize these were fun facts… I just kinda thought they were common knowledge…

Did you know Lego has made enough minifigs to fill an Olympic sized swimming pool?

I am not surprised, that certainly sounds plausible.

Eh… It was the first thing that popped into my head.

What’s the link to those fact you just said?

There is no link because it was sarcasm.

Of course Michael Jordan makes between $10 and $99 trillion a month. Anyone with a paying job does. Because that ratio is ridiculously large and doesn’t actually tell you anything about his salary as it could be any number in-between 10 dollars to 99 trillion dollars.
It’s only a “fact” because there’s no room for error. You’ve chosen the least amount he could possibly make versus the highest amount he could possibly make. It’s not something that needs to be proven as it is inherently correct regardless of how you look at it.

^This? This is same thing. It’s useless information that doesn’t actually tell you anything other than “TTV makes money”. It is a “fact” simply because there is no margin for error, and any guesses as to how much profit is actually made based off this info is pure conjecture.

You might as well have opened the topic by stating “the sky is blue” :stuck_out_tongue:

Edited Title and Moved to LEGO


Here’s a simple, lil’ fact. The second Modular Building, 10190 Market Street, was not released under the usual Advanced Models line, but the Factory theme. LEGO Factory allowed fans to design their own sets and buy them from TLG itself. Some of these models were later released as official sets, with Market Street being one of them.

The current tallest LEGO tower is 113 feet tall!

You know, I’ve seen the fact in LEGO books that says “With eight 2x4 LEGO bricks of the same color, (insert number here) different combinations can be made.” I’ve always wondered why they included color in that statistic, it really doesn’t affect the number of combinations that could be made.
