The X-Files gives a little less than similar sets
Below average
#41 of 51 Ideas sets with 1,000+ pieces
Eight minifigures give The X-Files about twice the usual figure rate for a big Ideas set, and early builders rate it 4.3 of 5. But it has about 19% less plastic per dollar than typical, about 73 pieces per $10 against 99, and costs roughly 14% more than its contents usually would, which puts it below average.
