A set that we had on our Black Friday Wishlist, the LEGO® Icons 10323 PAC-MAN Arcade, a captivating addition to the Icons theme, originally boasted a retail price of £229.99. However, it's now available at a reduced price of £184.99, reflecting a 20% discount as part of the LEGO Insiders Members Sale promotion. This exclusive LEGO set, features 2651 pieces and includes one minifigure. As a licensed sub-theme, it holds the iconic status of PAC-MAN Arcade, captivating fans with its nostalgic appeal. Launched in June 2023, this LEGO masterpiece is available exclusively on LEGO.com. While the discounted price makes it an attractive buy for collectors, it's worth noting that the model is expected to have a shelf life of a couple more years. Despite this, the PAC-MAN Arcade is projected to have a 25% increase in value over the next five years, with an impressive 12% annual growth rate, showcasing its enduring popularity within the LEGO community.
10255 LEGO® Icons Assembly Square
The LEGO® Icons 10255 Assembly Square, a remarkable addition to the Icons theme under the Creator Expert umbrella, was originally priced at £259.99. Now available at a discounted rate of £209.99, representing a 19% reduction, this set is a compelling purchase for enthusiasts. Known for its impressive piece count of 4002 and including nine minifigures, Assembly Square falls under the subtheme of Modular Buildings. Launched in January 2017, this iconic set is marked as "Retiring Soon," indicating its imminent departure from the market. With a launch price per piece of 6p, this set boasts a projected five-year value of £571, showcasing an impressive 120% increase. The forecasted annual growth stands at 18%, with the Icons theme expected to grow by 12% and the Modular Buildings subtheme by an even more robust 25%. This is a definite buy for us!
10315 LEGO® Icons Tranquil Gardens
The LEGO® Icons 10315 Tranquil Gardens, a recent addition to the Icons theme, initially debuted with a retail price of £94.99. Currently, it will be available at a discounted price of £75, reflecting a 21% reduction, making it particularly appealing to budget-conscious buyers. Despite its new status in the market, caution is advised as it is expected to remain in production for an extended period before retirement. Notably, the set is currently discounted to £75 at retailers like Amazon and Smyths, providing an additional opportunity for enthusiasts to acquire it at a lower cost, but casting doubt with us as to its true investment potential. Launched in August 2023 with 1363 pieces and no minifigures, Tranquil Gardens presents a price per piece of 7p. The projected five-year value is estimated at £115, indicating a 21% increase. Looking ahead, the forecasted annual growth is 10%, with the Icons theme expected to grow by 12%. We would look to avoid this set as an investment now due to its long shelf life and current discounts despite only launching recently.
10265 LEGO® Icons Ford Mustang
The LEGO® Icons 10265 Ford Mustang, a standout creation in the Icons theme under the Vehicles subtheme, was initially priced at £149.99. With a current discounted rate of £119.99, reflecting a 20% reduction, this set is highly recommended for purchase. Despite having a long shelf life, the Ford Mustang is set to retire soon, adding a sense of urgency for collectors. Launched in March 2019 with 1471 pieces and no minifigures, this Creator Expert model has earned a solid reputation within its subtheme. The launch price per piece was £0.10, and the projected five-year value stands at an impressive £257, indicating a substantial 71% increase. Looking forward, the set is forecasted to experience a 12% annual growth, with the Icons theme and the Vehicles subtheme projected to grow by 12% and 15%, respectively. We would race to snap up one of these sets at discount!
