They’re gonna trick us with the Star Wars endor brickhead set and it will stay till 2024
This could totally happen!
@@JakesBricks even the obi wan star fighter hearing rumours it might not retire
@@JakesBricks Thor’s hammers a good buy. Got confirmation today Captain Americas Shield will be dropping soon. Also grab the Disney 100 mini fig complete set asap
Yeah i could see that and Ahsoka..
Great video Jake! Appreciate the work that went into it!
💪💪💪
Honestly one thing I disagree on is the BD-1 set. Jedi survivor recently came out & was amazing to play which has probably really helped the desirability to have BD-1. Also BD-1 is a very beloved character, much more than D-O! If you get this set on sale I think it will be a good investment. Great vid as always Jake
I can receive that pushback 💪! We will have to see 🤷♂️
BD-1 will be the next Ghost
Something from great media but more niche, lots will pass on it but once youll play it yeah you will want a bd1
Thanks for making this video Jake! I always enjoy your videos. Definitely going to be picking up a few Heroes of Endor sets!
💪💪🙌
Great to have you making more content again ... 🙂👍
💪💪
I agree with you on: Obi Wan's starfighter, Republic fighter tank (for the minifigs the built is awful) and Inquisitor ship.
Disagree with you: The dioramas will go up really well in the long term, BD-1 is a great built/display and the gunship is a gunship.
Also BD-1 is a beloved character lesser known for sure but still.
Love your feedback! Excited to see how all these sets do. I could totally be wrong with the dioramas
GREAT video Jake - thanks for taking the time! Any suggestions on the best way to track your inventory? A simple excel spreadsheet, or is there an app you’d recommend? Thx for all you do!
I’ve used google sheets most of my time during investing haven’t found any better solutions at this point
I am big on the Ferrix Andor set, the show is just so good and people are starting to get into that were skiddish last year. I think the popularity of the show will go up as time moves forward as people realize how friggen awesome the show is especially if it wins at the emmys, and will want the sets later on. Since these are so limited and not horded should do well. Luthen is such an amazing character and Id like to think people will want that figure in particular. Plus as you said, I don't think they will remake these figures since Andor is so niche, we may get 1 or 2 more Andor sets moving forward I am guessing if we are lucky. Id like a Kinoi Loy, and Dedra, and a translucent holographic Maarva figure for Maarva speech set please!
Great great analysis!
Love these videos please keep doing this type of content
💪💪
Great video. Thanks!
💪💪
I always appreciate your thoughts on sets.
Thx Jay!!!
Cheers buddy, another really informative vid 👍
Thanks Hansel!
Obi-Wan Starfighter and the Bob Fett Star Ship Microfighter have been extended to 2024. I would hold off on those for investing!
Great informative video Jake.
Love more of these on other themes. You’ve done your research and that’s really appreciated thanks.
We should have a pole on which set you are wrong about… lol! Always has to be some, a winner and a looser! ✌️
Yes I am always wrong about some sets. If we did a pole sounds like I would be most wrong about the BD-1
Here for it 🎉
🙌🙌
I signed up for your brickhawk promo a couple months ago and signed up for a premium account after the trial expired. It’s so useful! I never would have heard of it if not for you. ❤
It’s nice to be able to support creators and businesses in the LEGO investor community
That’s awesome! I use it daily!!
Great video 👍
Thx!!!
Boba Fett does have the jet pack in both the starship and throne sets. The difference with the microfighter is it excludes the rangefinder. That’s what makes it exclusive, lol. I have looked at these minifigs and see no difference other than the rangefinder missing from the microfighter version.
Ahhhh yes range finder not jet pack! Thx for the correction Matt!
Great job great assessment the only thing I disagree with is the razor crest . I think this is gold only available at Lego and Amazon and never discounted means it’s been a great seller and always low inventory levels
I’m good with this assessment! Thx Tony!
It has been discounted. I've seen it at $98. However, I think your value assessment is correct, especially if it's extended to a few years out of production.
Saw the snowtrooper Battlepack in a Supermarket here in germany for 50% off. I bought the rest that was available, for 10 dollars i dont think you can do something wrong with this set. Especcially if someone wants to fill the USC AT-AT, he needs these specific snowtroopers. Great video :)
Great pick up!!
My 2023 Star Wars Hit list is:
Ahsoka
Republic Fighter Tank
Inquistor Scythe
Ambush on Ferrix
Dagobah Jedi Training Diorama (at the $58 price)
I'm going to wait one more month to see if Battle of Endor Heroes is still on the retirement list because I completely agree, it jumps to my #1 set if it really retires this year.
I saw a StoneWars list a few days ago that said Obi Wan's Jedi Starfighter was pushed back to next year. If Brick Fanatics says the same thing next month, its off my list.
Oh shoot I check both regularly I need to check back on the stonewars list
Hi Jake,
Great video, love your content.
Can you also make a "Every LEGO Marvel set retiring in 2023 with grade" video?
Keep up the good work!
Coming soon 😉
As a clone army builder, I can confirm we do like those tanks. I have 4 sealed already, planning on opening two. I also have 2 187th troopers in my collection also.
💪💪💪
I'd like to see a video like this about Speed Champions.
👍👍
14:18 Looks like the General Jan Dodonna is coming out in the new Yavin-4 playset.
Same torso?
JAKEEEEE
You forgot the Mos Eisley Cantina!!!
The most important one!
I don’t believe it is retiring this year
Hey man, that's what i wanted 😊 What about Mos Eisley Cantina?
Not retiring till next year so I’d hold off for now
Thank you for talking sense about the Helmets, people have been going nuts investing with them based on the 1 retired helmet, investors are hording the crap out of these and I just don't think they will do great down the line. The Dark Trooper helmet is so ridiculously hyped up by investors, it is set up to fail on the after retirement market, every youtube channel is buying dozens of them, same with people on reddit, very very over horded.
I agree with you. However, it's not just one helmet that did good. The stormtroopers helmet has made me crazy money
@@thegreatpiginthesky3904 fair enough👍
Neo Dragon! Glad we are on the same page! I do think the next few will fall in their investment potential. People will get weary of investing in them and then they will do well again. It will probably be an up and down cycle but the line is probably here to stay!
Hey Jake, awesome video. I was doing research on Star Wars TM Millennium Falcon 75192 and was curious what your thoughts are on that set moving forward. I won the set for free at a work conference, so no money into it but wasn't sure if I should sell it now or wait to see if it increases in value down the road.
I would sell now! It is going to be on the market for a loooooong time!
Hi great video as always. Did you or will you cover in some of your videos these sets retiring this year: haunted house, bookshop , colosseum, friends apartments and marvel guardian ship 76193 i would really like to know your coment on these sets. Icons summary video would be great
I plan to! More videos to come
Hi there!
I am a LEGO addict, mainly LEGO STAR WARS theme.
I collect mainly star wars minifigures and UCS Star wars sets.
I have been watching lately tons and tons of inventory in bricklink , mostly new UCS minifigures.
I have sent a message to one of the suppliers asking how did he get so many minifigures especially when we are talking about a 240 euros UCS X-wing set! I mean.... Having 50 of these made me think something is wrong...
So... we talked through e-mail and he even told me he already has the new UCS VENATOR Rex at sale and he sent me pics... The only thing they are missing is the pauldron which is made in another factory so they cant get theyr hands on it. The minifigures come from Mexico factory btw....
Anyway... i dont collect and hoard onto a bazilion sets to make money. I sometimes buy more than 1 to sell later and keep my hobby up (since we all know how expensive this hobby is....)
Thing is.. even though im not able to collect every single minifigure without saving money for it i want to have them all in the long run. I am now worried this scheme might hurt the entire LEGO market and flood the world with minifigures.
I am not saying only the rich should have the minifigures and how hard it is for some to obtain the most expensive ones BUT... What about quality?!
I bet these minifigures dont have the standards regarding quality lego has. So the heavy collector might end with crappy minifigures thinking theyr real lego which will eventually devalue the hole collection to the point its not fun anymore.
Just like knockoffs... you can buy old ucs sets from lepin or whatever but its not the same... the value is not the same... you can let the dust cover the set and you wont bother about it because it was so.... cheap? I clean my lego sets and i manage my lego minifigure collection with pride and taste. I watch it everyday before going to work because i do love it.
My question is what will LEGO do about it? It seems there is no information about this whatsoever....
Have a great day/life everyone! :)
Just replied to your other comment!
I think you are underestimating BD-1. He's a fan-favourite character in a popular and successful game series rather than a forgettable character in a divisive movie. I wouldn't bet the farm on him but I think he'll do pretty well.
You could totally be right but even the track record of BB-8 & R2 haven’t been great… but hey we will see 🤷♂️
Do you have instructions or another video on how to make that Star Wars logo out of Lego?
I don’t sorry maybe I could make a video
Great video! Are you also doing a Harry Potter or general eol investment video?
More video to come. Check out my top 10 video here czcams.com/video/ntyGD5qzM7A/video.html
Awesome video, how can you find what is being retired each year? Just starting to film videos with my sons who are obsessed with dinosaurs for now. Hoping one day its star wars do I need to stock up now?
There are several sources I have directly but the most reliable public sources are promo bricks, brickfantics and stone wars
Love the video, what are your thoughts on the justifier as an investment at an all in price of $110?
$110 is way better!
I think your wrong about BD-1 for 3 reasons. One, its a great build and a respectable shelf piece from a design standpoint, especially at $100, being much larger, with almost twice the piece count, than the D-0 droid you referenced. Two, trying to compare it to a droid from a majority opinion, unpopular SW title is not comparable, especially considering how popular Fallen Order is. And three, Jedi Survivor did just come out so this set, even though its from Fallen Order will share in that hype, unless Lego decides to release a new version for Survivor. This set should see some great jumps for the next couple years. I wouldnt be surprised if it jumps anywhere from 50-75% by next year alone, seeing how well Survivor is doing, with talks of the third game already starting.
Would love to see this happen for those that choose to invest in it! We will see 🤷♂️🤷♂️
It is rumored that the Omega minifig will appear in the advent calendar this year, that might decrease the value of the fig and therefore decrease the value of the Justifier.
Hadn’t heard that rumor but if true that would 100% decrease the value!
A lot of people have said it. Primarily LifeBricks and MandRProductions. Who are big Lego CZcamsrs that are very affiliated with leakers
Edit: more people besides those two, but I watch them the most
I was looking for this comment. I might just bite the bullet and buy the Cad Bane minifigure before it goes up once it retires
Is the Justifier at $120 a good price for investment? I would think that great cad bane figure might be worth close to $70-80 by itself in a year. I think this set has been passed over by too many people.
@@bbafett it’s not bad! But I really don’t know if this set can get to $240 in a year or two
I bought the UCS Gunship day one and never built it, so have the initial misprinted version with the incorrect logo on the box. Just wondering if that would add anything to the value.
It actually could be! Only a few collectors know about the error so it might be tough to find a buyer but it certainly doesn’t hurt the value
General Dodonna is coming in a Yarvin 4 Set in August this year. ;-)
Yeah, and the set is garbage
Same exact fig?
I'm really surprised that you rated the Luke Skywalker Helmet higher than the Dark Trooper Helmet. Where I live, there are retailers which are selling both helmets for 49,99 € and guess which set is ALWAYS sold out and which one is always still on the shelves ;-) Great video though!
Hmmmm I just think Luke is more iconic! But we will see
@@JakesBricks yes, time will tell!
That could just mean that one it's being horded by Investors and the other one isn't wich comes to less stock on the aftermarket 😉
@@brickhunts It also means that there is no demand for the Luke Helmet.
The Trash Compactor set is a big bummer....the torsos of Luke and Han are in the new Stormtrooper Mech and R2D2 and 3CPO will be out in this print in more Sets....I bougt one for myself but wouldn't invest in it...I think the X-Wing and the Tie-Fighter are desirable because of their price point....Lego will continue to increase their prices so if the next models will cost around 100€/$ you could probably sell them for this price because they fit more to the scale of the Minifigures....the previous ones are way too big....but amazing video as always greetings from Germany🙂
Great great thoughts! Thanks Sebastian!
Obi wans Starfighter got updated to retiring to 2024, but I still might look for a few
I saw some rumors of that! Sounds like it is all but confirmed now
be careful, the obi wan starfighter minifig ( the obi wan one) is not unique, you can have the same in the lego star wars magasin of may 2023
Ahhh good to know
I know this question doesnt pertain to lego investing I was just wondering what style of shelving do you use for your lego investing storage ?
Costco and Sams shelves are great!
Well I was going to grab 10 sets of Battle for Endor but seeing as my hunch was so right im going out for 30-50. In Aus we can grab 15 at a time so time to stock up.
Noice!
Hi Jake, thanks for great overview!
Honestly, I do not see any rational reasons Lego can retire Endor Brickheadz… Other Star Wars Brickheadz as Obi Van vs Vader and Tusken raider are staying and Lego is releasing Brickbuild Yavin 4, so it should only increase hype for this episodes
We will see very soon
I agree! I was surprised to see it on brickfanatics retiring list last this month. We will see
Does the Ashoka brickheadz gonna get restock?
It’s In stock in the US currently
hey, when you say 'next christmas' for example on the 40623 set, do you mean christmas 2023 or 2024?
2024
Yes 2024
I agree with all you said but I would swap the andor and obi-wan sets as star wars fans are meh or love Ando and are meh about obi-wan or hate it.
I could see this 💪
How are they predicting a 2023 retirement for the Battle of Endor Heroes set?
I dunno? The LEGO Group be crazy
Good job, but even better if you can summarize the sets with highest grades in order in the video or somekind of excel spreadsheet. Thanks
Would an excel spreadsheet be better than the video?
@@JakesBricksBoth would be cool.
How many will lego let u buy at a time in store?
2-5 usually
Will the UCS razor crest be retiring in 2023 as well?
Nope.
*I have bought the Justifier today for 111 euros but got a 20€ discount for my next LEGO purchase of 50€!*
I also do think that the Brickheadz & Republic Fighter Tank will do really well. I have spare 187th to sell later.
They won't probably return since The Clone Wars has ended and there are a lot of other Clone legions & Star Wars projects that can have sets instead. It won't be in the January 2024 Battle Pack so that will already bring it's value up.
Love these thoughts thanks for sharing!!
@@JakesBricks You're welcome, I personally don't invest a lot and I have only been collecting LEGO Star Wars for a year now but I've now invested in 3 sets and I'll hopefully see the benefits of it in 2-3 years
What are your toughts on the 75192?
I think it will be on the market for 10+ years so I would avoid it for investing
27:49 I believe the Han and Luke stormtrooper bodies are no long unique since the leak of the storm trooper mech
Oooohhhh… that might be true 😬😬
Storm trooper mech only comes with one storm trooper I believe
Is the UCS Mos Eisley Cantina retiring this year?
Nope
Any chance we could get a marvel themed video like this one?
I do need to make one yes!
Great video - basing the grading system on MSRP is great - keeps people who don't do their homework from flooding into all the best sets.
Agreeeeed! 💪
What do you think of the horizon zero dawn set?
I talk about it in this video! czcams.com/video/ntyGD5qzM7A/video.html
>the scene where han gets his mudflaps jangled by a trash monster is the most iconic scene of the ot
You been investing in pcp?
Tons is PCP 😜
Great video! Would you buy The Justifier for $130??
ehhhhh maybe. I would want a better deal
Jake they removed the cantina from the retirement list?
Yup!
Can you do the same video with Harry Potter sets?
Coming soon
Just got that obi set for 25 bucks at Walmart
SICK!
I love your commentary on Lego investing but what a lot of people don't take into consideration when 'investing' in large Lego sets are the cost to ship which would eat a lot of the profit margins away. So for instance, you were saying for the Razor Crest "I hope this set would be $180 to $200" inferring that's a good return, it's not. The ROI on that would be very marginal and hardly worth the time and space 'investing'. Fees would be 15% so that's $26 to $30. Shipping cost to safely ship securely, packing materials etc would easily be $20 to $25. So no profits there. Hence most of the time, I stay away from big sets for investing. ROI isn't great. A $30 set that you purchase for $16-$18 on sale when it goes to $70 and shipping costs of $10-$12 gives superior ROI. I have sold some of my large UCS sets that I purchased for 20% off for say $500 only to make a paltry $100 bucks after fees and shipping. Hardly worth my space.
I have talked about this on other videos and you are correct! Facebook and other places to sell allow you to avoid fees and shipping at times. But to actually profit an ROI at 100% on that set it would have to get to $300 so you are right
I disagree on the BD-1 I have never seen that set for under $100 and I think have some demand because of the game
I can see it! Lots of Costco’s were clearing them out for $50 after Christmas but for e-commerce I agree there have not been many discounts
@@JakesBricks fair point. loved the video tho. I will be picking up some brickheads
I don't know what to think. Agree with the top 6 sets you mentioned but they are so obvious there will be millions of them hoarded by investors. I am going to diversify a little more and hold some B-C rated sets as well. Then again last years winners were pretty obvious also like anything Mandalorian. Tough year for sure, just try get the best discounts you can ..
Ya this year my be tough for Star Wars sets… who knows really 🤷♂️🤷♂️
im saving this clip, i honestly think u got a lot of these WRONG but i guess we will see. those helmets will do great along with a few others you said wont. time will tell and im looking forward to looking back at this clip in a year.
Same
Which ones do you disagree with 🤔🤔
I totally agree with him about the helmets becoming to well known now and everyone hoards them.
What about the Cantina?
Not retiring till 2024
@@JakesBricks Got you, do you still think it’ll do good in retirement though?
nice video! Yeah Andor was a really good series. Miles better than Kenobi and the most recent Mandalorian season. Its a shame it doesn’t get more love. i gotta start investing earlier this year so I don’t have to rush fro everything at the end of the year. I guess i would miss out on some holiday deals though.
End of year has better sales though… keep that in mind
When does Mos Eisley retire?
2024 (at least)
I believe 2024 maybe even 2025
36:00 if it drops to $60, I could just about justify it
True true!
Love the vid but it’s Ton Wii not Ton Way
Always appreciate the correction! Thx!!
Am i the only one anoyed by him saying “Taun Wey”
Wait how do you pronounce it??? 🤷♂️
Your take on the dark trooper did not age well lol. It'll hit 90 by mid 2025 easily
The cantina is not retired in 2023 ?
No. It's next year.
@@josiahlee4512 so basically its resale value won't shoot up after retirement right
What Josiah said… looks like 2024
@@JakesBricks hi Jake. Do you think the cantina is being hoarded? I think there's a high possibility that people think it's gonna triple in price after retirement
Waiting for Harry Potter
I’ll add it to the list
@JakesBricks I'd love to see a retiring grade for Marvel / superhero (could add batman sets) themed video.
Love your videos, your enthousiastic view on legos and investing. Thanks for all this!
1:56 Glad you call the Slave 1 by its proper name. Disney is trying to cancel the word slave, but I will never call it anything other than the Slave 1. Black people are not offended by this. It's just Disney doing what they do these days.
I mean I am certainly not in the business of calling something out of principal... It's just what I remember calling it as a kid
Hey Jake, what do you think about a 43 euro Skywalker helmet? At 70 I agree it's not a great investment, would you consider it a great deal at 43?
Thx
43 is not bad should be worth 80-85 euro right after retirement so that’s a decent number
