About 1998 LEGO Sets

In 1998 LEGO released 362 sets, many of which today are highly collectable and have proved to be solid investments to the LEGO collector community.

Based on the 362 sets released for that year, the retail value was $6,490.29 with a current value of $38,960.45 for the combined new/factory sealed sets. As of present, the best performing theme for 1998 is currently Adventurers which has seen an average annual growth of upwards of 6% to date. With the 64 sets that year, the Town theme had the most released sets.

1998 marked LEGO’s leap into programmable play with the launch of LEGO Mindstorms, combining motors, sensors, and code for user-built robots. LEGO also entered digital entertainment with games like LEGO Creator, LEGO Loco, and LEGO Chess. New themes included Adventurers, following Johnny Thunder’s global expeditions, and Insectoids, a sci-fi successor to Exploriens. LEGO Castle revisited classic factions such as Crusaders and Dragon Masters, reconnecting with its medieval roots while bridging into modern set design.
