Insights

Released in 2009 and retired in 2010, BBQ Stand 8398 is a small City impulse-style release whose short production run has left sealed copies relatively scarce, and while scarcity has driven post-retirement gains, common parts and a generic chef minifigure mean upside is modest and can be volatile.

Set Facts

The set includes a barbecue stand with a grill, condiments (represented by yellow and red taps), an umbrella, and a turkey drumstick accessory.
It features a single minifigure, Heimlich Stewblaster.
The barbecue stand's design includes a grill with orange transparent studs to represent fire and a transparent lid for the container piece.
In the United States and Canada the set was not released until August 2009.

“This little, simple set is very good and you can do a lot with it. The food stand looks great and includes a grill, mini fridge, mustard and ketchup dispensers, and a umbrella to shield the cook from the sun. The cook looks good and the chicken leg is a nice and needed... More addition. The only thing that is needed for this set is a customer to buy the food. I would recommend this set.”
