But we’ve eliminated such ephemera to narrow the list to models, sets, and minifigures that are, or once were, available to the general public. LEGO lore (get used to that term) tells of employee exclusives, such as a solid-gold 14k Lego brick, which is valued somewhere between $9,000 and $14,000. So we set out to find and share the most valuable and rare LEGO sets and minifigures ever made.

“Properties such as Star Wars, for example, benefited from the restart of the movie franchise and the fact that people who loved Star Wars as kids - but didn’t have the money to buy sets that cost hundreds of dollars - are now buying them.” “Most high-priced sets are recent, but not that recent,” van IJken says. I’ll send out links to order the Homecoming sets via the Marvel Toy News Twitter and Facebook Pages once they actually go up for sale.Gerben van IJken, a full-time LEGO investor and appraiser with the E.U.-based auction platform Catawiki, cites rarity, detail, and demand as reasons for increased value in some LEGO collectibles. Ordinarily that would be a bit of a bummer, but the environment in this scene is really simple in the trailer, so it’s tough to fault TLG here–especially considering the reasonable $19.99 price-tag for a licensed set containing three Minifigures.īoth of the movie LEGO Spider-Man Homecoming sets have an official release date of June 1st 2017, and may actually be held off shelves until that date if the boxes are labeled with that as an official release date. The 76082 ATM Bank Heist LEGO set bank playset itself is really simplistic, consisting of mainly just plain blue and grey bricks, a neon green motorcycle and some stickers. (I’m curious to see if these thugs will actually have a giant missile launcher in the movie, though…) I won’t hold my breath for TLG to ever release Thor and Iron Man Robber Minifigures to complete this scene, but I’m glad we’re getting these very fun scene-specific enemies for Spidey to fight anyway.
The Power Blast” feature looks to just be some “web fists” that you can flick at the bad guys.Īnd speaking of the bad guys, that’s far and away my favorite part of this set: two “Masked Robber” Minifigures are included with this set–the Captain America Mask Robber and the Hulk Mask Robber. I sort of prefer last year’s web effects pieces to the “Power Blast!”, but at least LEGO is trying new things to keep Spidey minfigs fresh. The Spider-Man minifigure comes with a “Power Blast” action feature for the first time ever.
Only one of those scenes seems like it would make a marketable LEGO set, and luckily that’s the one of the two that TLG decided to make in brick-built form! This is the cheaper of the two LEGO Spider-Man Homecoming sets, priced at just $19.99 and likely to be the target of parents of kids who just want a movie Spider-Man minifigure. I’ve seen the trailer for the Spider-Man Homecoming movie about a half-dozen times now, but the only things my brain has retained from those viewings are 1) Peter and the-guy-who-should-be-Ganke drooling over some girl in the cafeteria and 2) the scene with Spider-Man foiling a bank robbery being carried out by superhero-masked crooks.
