Not only are Technic sets authentic-looking, but they give you some extra parts and stickers for extra builds.

Released in 2017 and comprised of 4,867 pieces, Ninjago City retailed for $300 and came with 16 minifigures and a sliding elevator to connect the set's three levels.

\n

This huge playset measures two feet high and sixteen inches deep and has multiple interactive features, like a sushi conveyor belt and a swiveling crab oven.

\n

This was the flagship of \"The Lego Ninjago Movie\" line and is still an extremely popular set. It now commands a price triple of that when it first hit the market.

We're not entirely sure what makes this one so expensive, but we'd wager that it has to do with the Volkswagen Beetle having a cult following, and that this 1,626-piece set would look quite good on display.

Cloud City has a strange price on BrickLink, which has several sets listed for below $20 in 2020. Which is odd, because you'll never find this set for that price.

BrickEconomy has the average price for a new, sealed set at $1,500, which is more in line with what we've seen sell on eBay.

One of the numerous \"Star Wars\" movie tie-in kits, the snowspeeders were the small orange and white fighter ships that the Rebel Alliance flew in battle in the movie \"The Empire Strikes Back.\"

\n

One reason for the high value of this limited-edition speeder (which launched with a retail price of $200) was the designers’ attention to small details: the correct angle of the lasers, detailed controls in the co*ckpit and power-coupling stickers.

\n

The snowspeeder often goes on sale for over $1,000, but usually sells for less. Brinklink has only one recorded sale in 2020 for an unused item for $500, while BrickEconomy has the worth of a new snowspeeder pegged at $850.

The Y-Wing Attack Starfighter is a 1,485-part Star Wars set that came out in 2004 but is modeled after the ship from the original trilogy.

\n

It's a very impressive ship with tons of great details and a nice stand. It's one of the less popular UCS sets, but that's probably because the Y-Wing isn't nearly as famous as the X-Wing.

What's a better ode to your Lego collection than a huge Lego statue of a Lego minifigure? This guy stands 20 inches tall and is made up of 1,849 pieces. It was made in 2000 and has since been retired.

\n

Most of these you'll find used, and several have sold for not much higher than its original $140 retail price. But if you can find one new in the box, they're much more expensive.

\n

Expect to pay around $1,100 for a Lego minifigure sculpture in good condition.

The Imperial Star Destroyer was sold until 2008 and was, at that time, the largest set ever made by Lego.

\n

The Imperial Star Destroyer set was a first in two ways: the first Lego model to contain more than 3,000 pieces and the first recommended for fans over 16.

The Space Police Mission Commander is a transforming police spaceship/base that was released in 1989 as part of Lego's Space line (transforming figures were all the rage back then, after all).

\n

The Mission Commander is quite rare, with BrickLink having no recorded sales in 2020. However, we found an unopened set on eBay that sold from Budapest for $1,137 after 49 bids in late June 2020.

\n

There's another one up for sale at $2,540 from Germany, and BrickEconomy values this set at $2,005.

The Maersk Container Lorry kit features a blue Maersk Line (the Danish shipping company) truck cab. The cab comes with two trailers, one full-size and the second smaller, to carry a gray storage container.

\n

The kit includes the figures of a driver, and the truck’s doors open so he can be seated inside. As the truck is rarer than the Maersk Line ship, its value, if you can find one, is considerably higher.

\n

BrinkLink has two sealed sets of these for sale via third-party sellers, one for $2,006 and another for $3,730.

Cafe Corner, along with Green Grocer, are extremely sought-after models. BrickEconomy says an unopened Cafe Corner is worth about $2,100, and it's more common to see these sell around $2,000 on eBay.

The Skull's Eye Schooner is part of the original Pirates series from Lego and was the holy grail of that set. It's an awesome four-mast pirate ship with cannons, crow's nest, lifeboats, working anchor and a hoist for a treasure chest.

\n

BrickLink says the average price for an unopened chest is around $2,200, but with $1,400, you can sail the high seas of Legoland in this ship.

\n

That's how much most of them have sold for on eBay. Used can sell in the $600 range for high-quality sets with the box.

Based on the famous Taj Mahal tomb in India, this set was part of Lego’s Sculptures series. At the time of its release, it was the largest kit ever released by Lego with 5,900 pieces.

\n

The Taj Mahal was meant for experienced builders and not intended for play once it was finished. The model accurately reproduces the minarets, domes, finials and arches of the original building.

\n

Despite the disparity between asking price and realized sale price recorded by BrickLink, BrickEconomy has this set valued at $1,188.

The Black Seas Barracuda set the standard for all subsequent Lego pirate ships when it was released in 1989.

It was the biggest and best part of the original Pirate line and was so popular that it was re-released as part of the Lego Legends series in 2001.

The Statue of Liberty 3450 was the largest Lego set at the time of its release, with 2,800 pieces.

The finished model stood 33 inches tall without her pedestal and was made completely of a brand new Lego product — sand green bricks.

\n

Prices for this one may vary wildly. BrickEconomy says a new and sealed Statue of Liberty is worth nearly $8,000.

Once built, Lego’s Grand Carousel plays music while the carousel figures move up and down, just like a real merry-go-round. The kit contains a Power Functions motor and a \"sound brick\" to make this possible.

\n

The kit has over 3,000 pieces, nine figures and was targeted at teen and adult Lego enthusiasts.

\n

The top of the carousel is even made of canvas.

Even at the time of its release, this Star Wars tie-in set was one of the most expensive Lego had ever produced, retailing for $500. Millennium Falcon 10179 is ranked as the third-largest set ever made by Lego, with over 5,000 separate pieces and a 311-page instruction manual. For a while there, it was selling for $4,000.

\n

The kit includes figures of Obi-Wan Kenobi, Chewbacca, Princess Leia, Luke Skywalker and Han Solo. Lego sold a limited number of first edition versions that came with a special certificate of authenticity, which makes them even more valuable.

\n

This was heralded as the most expensive Lego set ever just a few years ago. Sometimes you can find it for $1,200 on eBay, other times the price shoots up to nearly $4,000 again.

The Airport Shuttle was released in 1990, as part of the Town Airport series, and features two battery-powered rail cars that run on a looping track. Each car has a separate compartment for the driver.

\n

The kit also includes two ground-level waiting stations, complete with seating, phone booth, lockboxes, street lamps and a hamburger stand. Nine minifigures are included.

\n

Lego outsourced production of the monorail tracks to another company, which went bankrupt and the tools to make the tracks were lost, so no more monorail sets could be made, which makes this set especially valuable. This set is exceedingly rare to find new in a box.

This Moulding Machines is a 795-piece set that depicts the very plastic-injection molding machines that Lego uses to make its bricks.

\n

But why is it so expensive? Because 4000001 was given out, for free, to those who attended the Lego Inside Tour in May 2011. Only 68 were made.

\n

This is one of the rarest Lego set ever made and almost never goes up on sale. One person on a popular Lego forum, Euro Bricks, said they opened their Lego tour gift because they didn't believe it would sell.

\n

They may have been wrong. One signed by Lego designer Melody Louise Caddick went up on eBay for $10,000 in June 2020. It sold after the seller accepted the best offer.
