20 Retiring LEGO Sets YOU Should Be Investing In For 2023!

[@LifeBricks]

Gotta be honest, they aren’t retiring much of anything good this year!

[@TCvids_]

I don't know whether to be sad or happy about that. But this year atleast i'll be able to catch up on collecting

[@Maddenhawk]

I was thinking the same thing!

[@Wookiee120]

Ngl, I´m not the biggest Marvel fan either but I bought that Guardians ship and it is a beauty! I totally recommend it!

[@TheOne-pv4rz]

@@HeyJinx Thanks to investors I could buy 'Pirates of Barracuda Bay' this x-mas as I missed out on that set. I happily paid £250 for the set and had a fantastic experience. Also bought Imperial flag ship for £800 a few years ago which made me a very happy camper. Good thing there are people investing!

[@samw7073]

Where's the link to the full list :(

[@Obi-Wan_Kenobi]

Ninjago fan here and the dragons are all pretty solid choices for investments. Off the top of my head, I think the Ninjago Dojo Temple is another stellar choice (it's one of the best buildings Ninjago's released with a great value and is an iconic location). I also wouldn't be surprised if the Crystal King does well since it is a very unique build, represents the climactic battle of the season, and has two exclusive minifigs of popular characters (Harumi and Lloyd).

[@randomrebuilds]

Great advice here! Def gonna pick up that Mustang, Blacksmith shop and Star Wars Head figure.

[@calvinw2104]

Cantina minifigures will pretty much guarantee it's more in demand than the Gunship in the future.

[@LifeBricks]

1:1 comparison you are very correct, I’ll have to see how money is this year to see if I want to throw another $400 at a gunship or a cantina!

[@charchar2267]

All guardians ship figures came in the advent calendar so there is only 1 figure exclusive to the set which is starlords hair and legs.

[@CommanderJona]

2022 was THE big retirement year with at least 10-15 really good sets to invest in

[@mattelder]

Assembly Square- yes long shelf life but good build with variety

[@A..D..D]

I did happen to have 2 Orc’s and 2 Black Falconer’s in package . Was going to save for a while . Must have bought almost 10 of each because I liked them .

[@adamn.4615]

As an HP fan, I am considering The Ministry and 12 Grimmauld Place. Being larger sets that are still fairly new, I’m surprised they’re getting the axe so quickly. 😭 I’d love to have that Mos Eisley Cantina, but not sure if I’ll try for it.

[@noampitlik2332]

I agree with most of your picks, except for Speed Champions and Avatar. Thanks!

[@LifeBricks]

I’m curious to hear, any specific reason why you are choice-fully staying away from those?

[@noampitlik2332]

@@LifeBricks Sure: It's personal. Even though it isn't exactly being a good businessman, I am a big car guy and Speed Champions are rediculously inacurate. I mean for half the price you can get a Jada diecast car that actually looks correct. Legos and cars don't mix and I'm not going there. As for Avatar, I couldn't stand tbe cheesy CGI look and cannot relate to the movie whatsoever. And after doing an analysis of the Lego sets, found them to be lacking in ppp and minifigures.

[@silentsound958]

I think it was a great year for Star Wars lego, I picked up a republic fighter tank just for the Mace Windu! Got to say the best £20 Battle pack for me is the snow troopers, i love them characters, great battle from Hoth can’t be beaten. Keep up the great work.

[@johnc2631]

Isn't the 187th colors in this set the Legends color not the cannon color?

[@LifeBricks]

Yes sir

[@Midnight-gamer]

I was at the Lego store and apparently the daily bugle is retiring and there bringing a same size marvel tower out

[@Daniel_figs]

I havent picked up the republic fighter tank yet so i might need to really soon.

[@81Corvette]

I have two of them I recommend it

[@Daniel_figs]

@@81Corvette do you think getting two was worth it fof like 85$ or no because im thinking of buying 2 also

[@81Corvette]

In my opinion I would say buy two of them I modded mine a little bit and the Mace windu is a good body so either you can make a another Jedi or your other option would be to to sell it after it retires also if you want the mandalorian starfighter Barnes & Noble might still have it for $64 dollars

[@ryandresser9643]

Should you bother opening the box or just keep it closer

[@darthbricks5645]

loved the vid i will only be investing in the clone tank with purple clones this year

[@alexl.8748]

Didn''t the republic fighter tank just release? its retiring this year??

[@LifeBricks]

20 month shelf life looking like indeed

[@matthewwendt7315]

Wow different taste the supra was the knly speed champion i didn't get, always saw it on shelfs didn't seem to sell as well

[@xXH0113TTXx]

got the cantina 100 cad under retail (after 50 cad price hike) very happy about it and cant wait to build

[@ItsGibbaaay]

Where did you get that ford mustang gt behind you?

[@karlschonfeld8628]

The minifigure of the 76193 are Not More exclusive they was all in the 2022 Marvel Adventscalendar

[@delsyncroft]

I'm sad to see the TIE Fighter Go but that's because I'm personally working on a big collection and I want as many as possible

[@LifeBricks]

Yes that’s a sad one, especially with all these other TIE variants coming out!

[@karlschonfeld8628]

What think you about the 40548 as Investment? And about 40573 and 40499 .

[@titanroar1605]

the guardians ship only has 2 exclusive minifigures a lot of them were in the advent calendar

[@radekemmerich6151]

Jurassic worlds biggest set of each wave does great every time. Also viking ship has great potential cus next year, there will be viking village ideas set.

[@ryandresser9643]

I have my Lego cantina built and what not will it still be worth anything

[@michaelfinny7538]

Hey, great video as always and food for thought in terms of starting to plan investments for 2023. I do have a question for you. You keep pointing off to your left when you say you have sealed sets. Have you made a video showing all your inventory? You did that recently right or am I misremembering? Keep the videos coming. Thanks.

[@doomhammer]

Aren’t they also retiring the UCS AT-AT?

[@Maddenhawk]

I dont see Lego making another UCS Republic Gunship for the next 20-30 years, especially with all the backlash they got with it.

[@LifeBricks]

100%, they’ve got another 10 prequel UCS to make every 5 years until the next UCS gunship!

[@Ash1ey_Cosplayss]

Firstly I love the vid great investments. Secondly I'm so jealous of people in the US right now. Because you guys are getting these sets for 40%+ off and I can speak for all of Europe but where I live (Ireland) the Max you can get off is about 10-15% if your lucky. And seeing you guys get 30$ sets for under 20$ is so painful. Happy you could find these for yourself. (If anyone in Europe knows any places that you can find similar deals such as these in the US and wouldn't mind spreading the knowledge I'd love to know) once again thanks for the great vid keep them coming 😃😃

[@richerichism]

If the upcoming Ashoka show blows up....

[@NannyJacksKitchen]

Cant wait to watch this. 1 second early gang

[@ricardomilos8224]

Die Cantina und Republik Fighter Tank Sind ein muss!! Werden meiner Meinung nach extrem im Preis steigen wenn sie EOL sind

[@anonymoussdmtsemployee7770]

I thought I would have gone more value for some of those sets I guess not I guess it's like stock market crashes sometimes sometimes it goes back up

[@tristanbahena9256]

Thank you for all the information and I’m totally gonna be buying the republic fighter tank cause they are going to go up in price for the clones

[@zombieheadshot4737]

Does Costco still have the blacksmith on sale?

[@matthewwendt7315]

How does one find...a deep discount....??

[@angiiivee25]

If you have to ask you’re not going deep enough

[@stevelaprade5161]

Where do you find lego on sale? I never see them on sale other than the lego website if you can get them quick

[@LifeBricks]

Walmart clearance for me, where I get 90% of my LEGO for 30-90% off

[@leacdn4197]

Another great take. Keep being you!

[@lordbenji1989]

Prolly buying 5-10 more cantinas, 2-3 for addon to my planned tatooine moc and 7ish for resale.

How do you find the sets on sale/discount? New to this channel and loving the content, thank you!

[@giop2rexcommander]

Lloyds golden ultra dragon is a good investment the oni lloyd s 35$ by its self and the crystal king is like 14$ so if you can get it on heavy is discount and its not selling that much so its very possible but a better set is the nya samuri x mech 2022 it has alot of exculives and is 120$ and the oni garmdon is 22$ so that a better choice i feel also the lloyd is in a foil pack but they did not put the mask and its still 35$ and t even in a foil pack for like 4$

[@Kinsey_]

Yeah I was just gonna mention the foil pack since it’s just missing the oni mask Rumor has it they’re gonna release oni garmadon in a foil pack

[@Towwny]

What's the number of the Avatar set behind you on the shelf? :)

[@kbctiger]

Great video. I think Mos Eisley is $800 or so within 2 years of retirement...hope for some deals on it this year.

[@ryandresser9643]

Will my mos Eisley be worth anything I have it built same with the figures

[@rogerhalt3991]

It’s on sale in the UK for £276. I might bute

[@quacksnapjdnd]

Cool

[@Josh-jj3ie]

bro half these sets came out last year i dont think they are retiring this year. next year maybe... but dont go urgently spend money on them

[@LifeBricks]

Lego’s releasing 800-1,000 sets a year the past 5 years. We’ve seen more then ever lately sets of a genuine 12-16 month shelf life. I don’t doubt this entire list Brick Fanatics has up is 90% right even this early. Gotta free up room

[@broncojuan]

Hearing somebody say "I'm a Prequel guy" makes me sad... I just attempted to do a complete chronological rewatch of everything currently on Disney+, and I have to be honest, I skipped forward to the Duel of the Fates, and the Duel on Mustafar. The pod race couldn't even hold my attention. That said, I agree that the gunship is a better investment then Mos Eisley.

[@06Pine]

Avatar. Hard pass

[@Jimmyjam788]

Saving up for the Star Wars UCS sets retiring this year. Hopefully I can put enough together.

[@clips1071]

You got time dw

[@NomadX7]

I still don't get the sealed collecting! Maybe having 2 of each ok! Sealed for me is investing and not collecting! No pleasure in them! The fun of the build, the minifigs, ...! Collecting sealed stuff is just collecting €$£¥! Why don't collect coins! Same stuff! The difference is to brag... I I have this and that and those.... but not apreciate the art, the mechanic or engeniring of it! It's just box art with plastic inside.... ! It's odd but for each is own! Would like to collect them sealed but there's money for just a few.... not card boxes stacked for 10/20 years! I get it.. but don't get it yet! Odd....

[@titanroar1605]

because it’s fun to collect the sets and see them on a set and then the sets increase in value anyways

[@NomadX7]

@@titanroar1605 Right... it's like having a Lamborgini and keep it in the garage and never drive it to increase value! Just to say you have this and that and keep the dollars go up. Gotcha
