Distributed only in the United States and Canada, it was an FAO Schwarz exclusive in the U.S. The set is closely related to 450-2 Deluxe Building Set but adds two blue 700eX 10 x 20 early baseplates that fit into the middle of the storage tray and swaps in light gray tires instead of black. Packaged with a compartmentalized storage case, it reflects the Samsonite-era approach to LEGO’s early North American assortments. Based on current trends, this set could be valued near $591 within the next year.
Deluxe Set with Storage Case (502-1) 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 $557.67 may be much lower than its true market value. Released in 1968, sealed sets in good condition are especially difficult to find, often commanding a premium well above estimates.
