Is this LEGO set a good investment?
“Most Power Functions sets have been increasing in value upwards of 5% per year but LEGO Battery Box has consistently outperformed this by 60% with a typical yearly return of 13%.”
Review brought to you by BrickEconomy Bot
BrickEconomy Expert Review
“I've found the Power Functions (PF) battery box to be a mixed bag. While it offers a cost-effective alternative to the newer AAA battery boxes, its bulkiness and weight present significant drawbacks. The heavy design necessitates additional motors for mobility in vehicles, and the protruding parts, along with an oversized switch, contribute to its cumbersome nature.”
