I have a few of each and someone is asking to trade their Bespin Duel for one of my Nebulon. Currently it looks like both sets run ~$80 on Ebay, but it seems like Bespin Duel has had more opportunities to purchase, making it a little easier to get, and potentially won't see as much of a % increase over time vs the Nebulon? Is that fair logic? I'm thinking I will decline the request.. Thoughts?

The exclusive Luke minifig from Bespin has made it's way onto the Lego Star Wars magazine in the UK. I think it's also attached to the magazine for another European country (Germany?). The value of that figure is predictably plumeting after going for over £20 a couple of months ago. This will probably have a knock on affect on the value of the Bespin Duel set.

nope, just an strong presumption based on how long besping lasted, it was everywhere for a while, target for a few days, lego sah for a while, even made it to non lego retail stores...

frigate was one night on amazon, and a very brief sellout later at its official launch

there is no comparison between these ..... my opinion .....  if you need a bespin or want one then trade ..... if your thinking of doing it for investment that is a bad idea

Steven Segal says take it to the bank

bespin was limit 1 per order at target and many resellers were banned at target which is why it lasted so long  bespin would have poofed quickly if target had made it limit 3 or higher.    nebulon was available initially in a stealthy yellow lego box as the set photo first night of amazon prime day with some nonsense set name and description to the average consumer in limitless order.  i placed and received my first 3 digit order of a single set with the neb b  .  i think they will both do very well.  the selling price cap on neb b on amazon is a wrinkle to contend with .  target's insistence on shipping bespin 1x at a time resulted in varying degrees of damage to majority of my bespin boxes so i think minty bespins may be very rare.  i could see both sets $160-200 in a year.  bespins already selling for $119.99 for me on amazon fbm so $160 is not that big a stretch.  nebulon b is capped at $104.

grabbed one and hopefully it comes in decent shape, Disney is notorious for their horrible packaging.

Maybe the smaller sets.  I've ordered three Disney Castles from them over the past year and every one came in original LEGO shipping box packed within a box.

Just placed a personal order since my 2 SAH got cancelled. Really hoping I can grab at least one for me this time.

I offloaded my bespins for 200 a piece in switzerland, folks here pay a premium for hard to get sets. I bought some additional nebulons from amazon and ebay (probably from someone here) I think they will do well here as long as you don't ask for the sky... some other folks are asking for 240 a pop.

These don't appear to have the comic con square on them. If so, that'll make Amazon impossible for me to sell them there because the two versions will mix freely.

I don’t think the Amazon listing showed the SDCC logo either but they did have it when they were delivered.

Ok, let's hope they're all the same and that Disney doesn't get any more in stock.

The listing (which is now sold out) did have a picture with the cc symbol on the box. I think you are safe.
