Is this LEGO set a good investment?
“For an older Episode IV set, X-Wing Fighter has outperformed other sets in the theme with an average annual return of 8.5%, which has made it a solid past and expected future investment. For earlier collectors, it has proven to be a substantial investment, with a total growth of over 783%.”

“The set comes with the X-Wing, Luke Skywalker in flight suit with lightsaber, one rebel ground crew guy, and a small hovering maintenance vehicle of some kind. The wings pivot using the clicking, vertical hinge; allowing them to open and close, like in the movie. This set...
