Surprise by giving some old already retired LEGO set that is not anymore available in LEGO store. Try to find best deals on eBay or similar market places. If you know that the person you want to make happy with your gift is for example a Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings or Star Wars fan, it can make your decision making easier. :-)
Price: Largely depends on the set or LEGO theme you choose. It can cost you a fortune ($3,500 and more) if you decide to hunt Taj Mahal set or similar extraordinary ones. :-) Good luck !

Subscription boxes are relatively new and fast growing business segment. I personally like the subscription boxes a lot. :-) I like the waiting, the wondering what's gonna be inside, whether I will find something extra or unexpected... At the end of the day, there are only two options. Either you will be pleasantly surprised by what you got or disappointed. But I like this game a lot ! I think that in overall it's a very nice product for every LEGO fan. There are a few LEGO subscription boxes, I reviewed MinifigBox subscription recently and I liked it a lot. Here's the link to my review, if you're interested. :-)
Price: MinifigBox subscription costs from $19.17 to $24.99 per 1 box per month - the longer the timeframe of your subscription, the lower the price per box.

You can for example create for someone your own LEGO display with his or her favourite Minifigure. Remember that creativity has no boundaries. :-) You can start by inspiring by my post How to create an original LEGO display ? :-)
