April 6, 201411 yr A 1961 725 town plan. Got it for $40 off Craigslist about 10 years ago. Largest set sold in Lego's first year in America.
April 6, 201411 yr Still have my 8860 car from 1980. My 8 yo bday present. 30 years later it's lead to closets full of modulars...
April 6, 201411 yr At this point, it is a sealed Taj Mahal, followed by 10030 Sent from my iPhone using Brickpicker
April 6, 201411 yr Probably an AT-OT dropship now that I sold my Cafe Corner. I keep hoping I can get one (AT-OT) cheap on eBay to build and then resell....it has eluded me for a while now.
April 19, 201411 yr Picked up this set recently in a mixed lot with a few other vintage sets, with the box and instructions in excellent condition, and only missing the arial and the yellow ladder and one little sticker. Really nice set with a great mix of parts, that was only released in Europe at the time I think (1977).
April 19, 201411 yr This one I believe. how's it different than the regular clone trooper lieutenant? cause i've got like a half dozen of these guys i've owned a lot of big sets but i keep selling them and buying more stuff
April 19, 201411 yr My father bought be tons of lego when I was growing up and I still have #4005 tugboat, in a box, sealed. Not sure if it's worth anything, but it was the first set he bought when I was born and held onto it for years.
April 19, 201411 yr Five of the Lego Movie promo tins given out to members of the press (TLMPS-1). i want one of these!
May 5, 201411 yr I have only 2 sets which might be rare but I am not sure. 10121 NBA Basketball Teams (MISB) and 9465 Monster Fighters - the Zombies (NISB) As I only started in December with the collecting/investing game, I do not have really rare sets yet. I hope the sets I bought the last months all will become rare! haha
May 5, 201411 yr I think my rarest set is the 6987 Message Intercept Base from 1988 and some other Sets from the Space Themes. Actually, it are the 10174, 8043 and 8110. I had also the 10178 and 10212, but sold them. And now i hit me in the face that i gave them away.
May 5, 201411 yr Emerald Night and 10210 Imperial Flagship. These are the rarest in my stash, but not really rare in the absolute sense. Also have the 8480 Technic Space Shuttle from my childhood which is truly an awesome set, one of the best Technics ever made, but looking at its prices it is not too hard to get.
May 5, 201411 yr 6281 Pirates Perilous Pitfall, with instructions and Box. When I bought the set the box had been folded over at some point allowing everything to fit in a smaller shipping box. :-( Pieces are Nrmt. Another possible display piece. Many copies of the Skull Eye Schooner 6286. Two very near mint as they were display pieces. (no box though) Aside of that, Monster Fighters Zombies sets (6). Not terribly rare just a short production run.
May 14, 201411 yr Rarest stuff I own are the Toy Fair Promos as they're all x of 125: 2008 NY Toy Fair Han Solo / Indiana Jones Transformation Chamber: http://brickset.com/sets/PROMOSW005-1/Han-Solo-Indiana-Jones-Transformation 2012 NY Toy Fair Iron Man / Captain America w/ Lanyard and plastic bag: http://brickset.com/sets/LCP2012-1/Iron-Man-Captain-America-(2012-Collectors-Preview) 2013 NY Toy Fair Yoda Diorama:http://www.actionfigureinsider.com/the-2013-lego-press-event-toy-fair-exclusive/

(Both characters are played by Chris Pratt.)
May 14, 201411 yr I had no idea about the existence of the 2008 promo, but now my life shall not be complete until I own one! It's a sweet promo as the top actually spins around and it's enclosed in a box similar to the Yoda one.
May 18, 201411 yr i had a Mr.Gold sold it. regret selling my Emerald Night will get another soon. Guess my rarest right now is fire brigade is all i have.
May 30, 201411 yr Had a sealed 10179 and decided to sell it about a month ago due to hearing about the new UCS Falcon rumors, needing money to buy other sets, and realizing that I will never ever open it to build. I guess my rarest current set is Diagon Alley.
