Set Value (New/Sealed)

This chart represents the current new/sealed value of the set Front Loader since September 2016. Medium accuracy
LEGO 8235 Front Loader was a 165 piece Technic set with 1 figure released in 1995. It was a Tech Play starter set. It was also called "LEGO TECHNIC FL8 Front Loader". The current value for a new and sealed Front Loader is estimated at $100 with an average yearly gain of about 5%. The current used prices for Front Loader can be found in the range of $20 and $29 depending on the set's condition, with an average price of $24 if it is in good overall condition.
Front Loader is an extremely old and very rare LEGO set. We have not seen set 8235-1 currently for sale online or in the hundreds of retail stores in good/new condition in over 802 days. Because of the rarity of this hard to find set the current estimated value of $100.26 might actually be much lower than the true value, assuming this set can be found for sale.

“The 8235 wheel loader, released in 1995, is similar in size and appearance to its 3 year older cousin 8828, but functionally it is quite different. Both have rear wheel rack and pinion steering, but in this case the bucket lift is pivoted about the rear of the vehicle... More resulting in a much higher lift. The dump mechanism uses an over-center linkage with a cam.”

About Technic

TECHNIC is one of The LEGO Company's main lines based on creating detailed model machines and mechanical toys with specialized beams, axles, gears and connectors and primarily designed for older children and adults. The theme was first introduced as the Expert Builder series in 1977, but was officially renamed as TECHNIC in 1984. TECHNIC is still an active theme, and is one of the longest running themes in LEGO history. While most TECHNIC sets are vehicles that use pieces to mimic real vehicles, such as engine pieces, suspension, pneumatic, and transmission pieces, the TECHNIC parts have been used by various other System themes as well as LEGO Mindstorms.
Summary
Technic Front Loader set 8235 was released in August 1995, retailing for $30, but has since been retired. New, unopened Front Loader sets are valued at $100, while used sets can be found for $24.
