Hi all,

 

I rcently noticed the new Lego Juniors series on the shelves, Batman, "Defend the Batcave" (10672) and Spiderman, "Spider-Car Pursuit" (10665).

They look pretty cool, and although in the "juniors" range, considering the cool mini figures, and the interest in super hero sets at the moment, does anyone have any thoughts on whether these might be a good investment or not?

 

This is my first post, and have only been collecting for a month or so, and haven't even listed my inventory yet. Go easy on me.....Lol

 

Thanks in advance,

Sean

since you normally can't find it right now, you can buy it and sell it for a quick flip

Where might I ask did you find those? I haven't even heard of this line of sets.

I would not try to hold long term. If you can quickly flip for a margin that you are ok with then have at it.

And welcome to the site.

I'm from Australia,

We just got a small shipment in some of our stores here in the last week.

Not sure why Australia seems to have them first though?

people are selling the juniors batcave on ebay for around $75

It's being sold here at Big W, a retailer for $35, and Target for $40

since you normally can't find it right now, you can buy it and sell it for a quick flip

I agree with this. Buy to flip it faster than The Flash as all these Junior sets should be available in a month or two to everbody at retail.

 

I haven't even heard of this line of sets.

Here is quick listing of all known sets for the line.

Thanks for all your replies guys, I think I'll head out this afternoon and grab a few, then list them.

Thank you for the welcome too!

Brilliant marketing!  "Juniors - Easy to Build".

Both the superhero sets look great for parting out as the designs for minifigs have not changed. So flip the figs and lego for free. Maybe even some coin too.

buy it, list it online for double (or more) the price. If it doesn't sell within the next month, return it.

What's everyone's opinion on the LEGO juniors now that they have been around for awhile? It looks like the CAGR values are actually pretty good. Just curious if other members are buying the sets and doing quick flips on them. Thanks

Not sure about all the Juniors sets, however, Defend the Batcave in particular will do well long term.

I parted this one out before xmas for profit and then sold them during xmas last year for $50 (buy in 22.50) when they sold out everywhere.

This has the limited retro batman and robin minifigures which are based on the 60's TV series.

The only other set that has these minifigures is a rare 2014 san diego comic con set.

The Joker minifigure is sort of rare too and sells pretty easy.

A few rare bricks and plates on top of the minifigures makes this a parter outer set or long term hold.

The minifigures alone were going for $30+ when it first came out.

Once it is EOL and a new crop of obsessive collector batman lego freaks come out of their dark ages, they will bid this set up to $75.

Small box, easy to ship, takes up little space.  

What's not to love.

LEGO Juniors.  Its not Duplo.

Defend the Batcave is a solid set that should produce nice EOL profit.  I am less sure about the spidermna/superman sets.

I grabbed about 10-15 of the Spider-Man sets on clearance for $5. Anyone buying to hold them long term will have to compete with other sellers that have low buy in

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Brickpicker mobile app

Batcave is solid at $20 or less. I have about $20 or so and will unload at around $50 in time. You just can't beat the minifigs in this set

Batcave for the win. Super easy to ship and I was selling them for a tidy profit last Christmas, too.

 

It pays to watch sets when they go TOOS. If there's a bump then, EOL should pay well.
