LEGO 102-2 Imagination Basic Set 2 is a Samsonite Basic Set released in 1971, consisting of 426 pieces. Sold exclusively through JCPenney in the United States, it offered a wide selection of standard bricks, plates, and basic elements designed for open-ended creative construction. The set was packaged in a sturdy box with illustrated model ideas, encouraging freeform building rather than themed designs.
Produced during the Samsonite licensing period (1961–1972), when LEGO manufacturing and distribution in North America were handled separately from The LEGO Group in Denmark, LEGO 102-2 exemplifies Samsonite’s approach to large general-purpose sets. Based on current trends, this set could be valued near $471 within the next year.
Imagination Basic Set 2 (102-2) is a very old and rare LEGO set. It has not been available online or in retail stores in good/new condition for over 2 years. Because of its scarcity, the current estimated value of in new condition of $439.24 may be much lower than its true market value. Released in 1971, sealed sets in good condition are especially difficult to find, often commanding a premium well above estimates.
There are currently no new/sealed listings available for Imagination Basic Set 2 at this time.
