Prediction Insights

A modern City minifigure with a generic Arctic Explorer look, retail-wide availability has limited scarcity and common print parts raise remake and variant churn risk, so upside appears modest for investors until it retires.

Investors

Is this LEGO minifigure a good investment?

“There are currently several Arctic Explorer minifigs figures. This one (cty1657) is exclusive to a single set, making it slightly more desirable to collectors and investors. Additionally, it’s not as widely owned as other Arctic Explorer versions.”

Review brought to you by BrickEconomy Bot

Review for LEGO set 60379 Research Submarine from True North Bricks

“The Deep Sea Explorer Submarine is a good set. There isn’t much that I don’t like about it. For a City set, it is a decent value. You get a large, detailed build that looks great too. Additionally, the character count is amazing, and you acquire a large great white shark.... More Despite being a fun idea, the mech was poorly executed though. Additionally, the sunken treasure story is overdone at this point and its time for some fresh material.”
