There are so many LEGO sets that it would make your head spin. From massive dioramas to tiny builds for kids, any collector can find something to fit their tastes. Some of the biggest licensed sets carry absurd price tags, though. Let’s take a look at some of the most expensive LEGO sets the company has ever sold.
MSRP Only
This article will only focus on the original MSRP of sets that were available at retail. While many of these sets command much steeper prices these days, and some of the promotional kits and minifigures can go for thousands of dollars, we’re just interested in the prices of products that LEGO has released to mass markets.
29. Republic Gunship: $400
Released in 2021, this Republic-era LAAT-class ship was one of the most iconic transports used by the Clone Troopers during the battle of Geonosis and beyond. Fans of the Clone Wars era are quite fond of the Prequel films’ aesthetic, which is on display here.
28. Mos Eisley Cantina: $400
Star Wars mega fans have no shortage of amazing LEGO sets to choose from. For instance, the 2020 Mos Eisley Cantina set, which comes with 21 minifigures, allows builders to reenact the legendary scenes that play out in this wretched hive of scum and villainy.
27. Grand Piano: $400
Have you ever wanted to build a working grand piano? You can with this LEGO set. If you connect the paired app, this impressive replica can create real music from its LEGO brick keys. It’s a beautiful work of art that can also allow you to make music!
26. 2008 Death Star: $400
The original LEGO Death Star was released in 2008 and was one of the priciest kits available at retail. These days, it goes for as much as $800. It would likely go for more if it weren’t for the more modern version of the kit offering a slightly better build experience and finished product.
25. Super Star Destroyer: $400
When LEGO introduced the SSD in 2011, it was a bit pricey at $400. Still, that’s got nothing on the resale price the iconic old set has now. These days, you won’t find secondhand listings of the retired set for less than $1,200. And that’s if you’re lucky!
