Theme Analysis

LEGO Marvel Superheroes is a solid theme based on historic performance delivering annualised returns of 11% across nearly 150 retired sets, so purchasing from within this theme at such a discount makes this a very interesting proposition.

We took a look at some of the bigger LEGO Marvel Superheroes and were very encouraged by the performance of LEGO Marvel Superheroes The SHIELD Helicarrier (76042) which has grown 70% in value since retiring in 2017 and LEGO Marvel Superheroes Spider-Man: Web Warriors Ultimate Bridge Battle (76057) which has almost doubled in value to £195 since also retiring in 2017.

76042 The SHIELD Helicarrier 31/12/2017 $350 $532 52% 6%
76057 Spider-Man: Web Warriors Ultimate Bridge Battle 31/12/2017 $100 $309 209% 18%
76105 The Hulkbuster: Ultron Edition 31/12/2019 $120 $155 29% 6%

Comparable Set Analysis

The sub theme this set is in, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness only has 1 recently retired set so we have chosen to look at the 2 Sanctum Sanctorum sets that have previously retired. Both

have shown decent post-retirement performance especially LEGO Marvel Superheroes Sanctum Sanctorum Showdown which has nearly doubled in value since retiring in 2019 at an annual rate of 20% growth.

76060 Doctor Strange's Sanctum Sanctorum 31/07/2017 $30 $55 83% 9%
