it's because airports shops pay so much for their rent I guess and the airport is full of people who have a few hours to fill waiting for their flight plus "gifts" are probably 80% of the market at an airport, they just stack the shelf and wait for some pidgeon to walk through the door.

When you consider a beer was 7 quid, the price of lego doesn't seem so bad now.
