Set Value (New/Sealed)

This chart represents the current new/sealed value of the set Mobile Lab since June 2016. Medium accuracy

LEGO 6901 Mobile Lab was a 135 piece Space set with 2 minifigs released in 1980. It includes a small laboratory on six wheels and a red and white classic spaceman minifigures. The current value for a new and sealed Mobile Lab is estimated around $1,114 today with current average yearly gain of about 11% but will level off in the next year closer to a 4% annual growth making it a solid investment. On the open market, a used set will fetch in the range of between $82 and $116 depending on the condition.

Mobile Lab is a pretty rare set these days as we have not seen set 6901-1 currently for sale online or in retail in new and good condition in over one year. The current value of this set might be slightly higher then what we have estimated at this time. The last brand new Mobile Lab seen was sold on ebay.com.

“6901 is celebrating its 40th birthday this year and I think it holds up well in terms of build experience. There's nothing tricky here, but it is an enjoyable build. If we were in 1980, I could definitely recommend the 6901 for the RRP, but at today's market prices (if you... More can find one), not so much.”

“Elevated vehicle with opening side doors, radar, articulated arm that could hold either a sensor array or a shovel with two astronauts and a pair of accessories. There’s nothing inside the vehicle (other than a steering wheel) to make it a lab. It can’t fit both the second... More astronaut and the sensor array at the same time. It looks a bit ridiculous with those 12 tiny wheels.”
