Insights

Retired in the late 1990s and drawn from the Town ResQ subtheme, Res-Q Runner has sealed scarcity from its limited polybag distribution and benefits from 90s Town nostalgia, and its small, non-unique build implies a modest upside with higher volatility.

Set Facts

The set contains a black and yellow jet ski and one RES-Q driver minifigure.
It is the same as sets 6415 RES-Q Jet-Ski and 6428 Wave Saver.

About Town Res-Q

LEGO Res-Q is a subtheme of Town that focused on rescue missions that ran from 1998 to 1999 with most sets released in 1999. The Res-Q sets consist of a total of 6 land vehicles and two motorcycles. Most Res-Q sets, except for the Speedboat, had a bright yellow and black color scheme. After the theme's discontinuation, the Res-Q organization made a few cameo appearances in other LEGO themes.

Res-Q consists of 11 sets that ran from 1998 to 1999. As of today, 6479 Emergency Response Center is the most valuable Res-Q set with an estimated new/factory sealed value of $259.

Boat includes a small craft which can be launched and sent to more dangerous and craggy parts of the sea shore. From 7 years.
