Damn. I know Lego is pretty valuable, but still, why would anyone make a point to steal them? Sad. ☹️
- They were used as a currency for selling drugs at one point. Easy to flip and stable value.
  
  Honestly, nothing surprises me anymore these days. It just seems rather sad and petty for people to go stealing Lego of all things though, no matter the reason.
- They recovered 200000 worth of Lego's at msrp. They can go for 3-4 time their msrp at events and etc.
  
  I hate to be that guy, but LEGO is both singular and plural. Legos, or as you stated, Lego's, is not a word.
