The Skeleton Attack Reviews
Is this LEGO set a good investment?
“Over that last few years The Skeleton Attack has been a particularly good investment for Minecraft collectors with an annualized growth of upwards of 18.9% per year. However, there is market indication that the set will experience a slight annual growth decrease in the coming years, but this should be only by a few percentage points at most. When compared to the vast majority of set in the Minecraft theme, this set is still an excellent investment for collectors.”
Review brought to you by BrickEconomy Bot
“There are already many LEGO Minecraft sets, and The Skeleton Attack is a welcomed addition. Although mostly for Minecraft fans, LEGO lovers will enjoy assembling this set and playing with the mini-figures.”

“This is a good installment into the Lego Minecraft series. The price per piece ratio is great and a good number of both minifigures and figures alike are included. The builds for these sets are very simple, with most construction being standard, not studs on the side.”
