Hospital (231-1) 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 $1,321.66 may be much lower than its true market value. Released in 1978, sealed sets in good condition are especially difficult to find, often commanding a premium well above estimates.

Insights

Released during the maxifigure era and now retired, Hospital (231) is an early Homemaker Rooms hospital with a named-era nurse that attracts vintage-town and pre-minifigure collectors, and its scarce sealed copies and unique era-specific parts support durable niche demand while trading volume remains thin and condition sensitivity increases volatility.

Set Facts

This set is only released in Europe, the UK, Australia, and Canada.
The set includes a male doctor minifigure, a female nurse minifigure, and two child minifigures, one boy and one girl, as patients.
The build features two hospital beds with night closets, an examination table with a lamp, and a cabinet containing medical instruments.
The walls are decorated with red cross symbols, a chart, a painting, a clock, and room numbers labeled "A" and "B."
