In 2016 LEGO released 3 Classic sets. The largest Classic set from 2016 was
10654 XL Creative Brick Box with a piece count of 1600 and a retail price of $59.99. The current estimated value of all these Classic sets from this year is about $215.95 which represents a 144% growth.
The LEGO Classic theme comprises sets that offer a broad assortment of bricks and pieces in various colors and shapes. Unlike many other LEGO themes that revolve around specific narratives or characters, the Classic theme emphasizes open-ended creativity, allowing builders to construct whatever they envision. These sets serve as foundational building kits and include various LEGO elements and parts in a variety of packaging.
2016 LEGO Sets
2016 saw some truly iconic releases with sets from Ghostbusters and the introduction of the Nexo Knights. LEGO also released the licensed, but short-lived The Angry Birds Movie theme. However, LEGO did discontinue Legends of Chima, Pirates and also the LEGO Simpsons which only did see a couple of sets. The Creator theme really shined in 2016 with the release of the Volkswagen Beetle (10252-1) and Big Ben (10253-1). The shining star that year for investors was certainly the Ghostbusters Firehouse Headquarters and pretty much all the Speed Champions sets which have seen growth in the triple digits.
