More valuable than two Apple shares

"Although it was released back in 2007, Lego’s “Ultimate Collector’s Edition Millennium Falcon” is still the biggest set they’ve ever released. It’s not in production anymore, but you can still pick one up for the price of a small car on Amazon." via Wired

I actually bought one of these back in November 2009 for my daughter. $499.99 from the US Lego website. She was obviously too young and I guess I really wanted it for myself, but did think we might be able to build it together when she was older. So imagine my surprise when I came across the listing in Amazon, offering this model at nearly $2000. In the same time period an investment in Gold in dollar terms has yielded 160%, Apple shares 270%, the Lego kit, 400%.
