oneknightr Posted July 25, 2014 Posted July 25, 2014 Am I the only one who is curious about what the box will look like of this one? For me it is very important. I have seen no pictures of it. Also not on lego. I'm curious but it's not a dealbreaker for me if it looks bad. I'm buying it for the Tumbler. Quote
Ed Mack Posted July 25, 2014 Posted July 25, 2014 It seems that most "exceptional" sets will triple or even quadruple(or more) in value with time(3-5 years). These sets can continue to appreciate for even a longer time in some cases...or until another comparable set is released. Even with similar sets in existence, some older exceptional LEGO sets still appreciate. It seems the older STAR WARS sets are getting a boost from the new movie(s) and interest in the theme. I think the above estimate of $600-$800 in 2019/2020 is a good one, maybe even conservative if the set is limited in any way. Quote
glenbart Posted July 25, 2014 Posted July 25, 2014 I think there is a photo of the box in a link at the start of this post. The artwork is very straight forward, it may not be the one we see. Quote
Ciglione Posted July 25, 2014 Posted July 25, 2014 I am expecting the box will be legendary. It is the best kept secret so far. Quote

Also not on lego. Indeed it is very important, because that's the first thing you see when you are interested about something, and if you hesitate it will certainly help to "take the plunge"... I think a very cool looking box helps the set a little (let's say +5% -don't seriously consider it, it's just to explain myself-) but an hideous one drop it too IMO (let's say -10%). So it's very important IMHO and I also wonder how the minifigs will be displayed on the front. Quote
Ciglione Posted July 25, 2014 Posted July 25, 2014 I am dreaming... an all black box with a big yellow and black batman sign and the tumbler in very dark black but just a bit less black than the box (a bit like the black album of Metallica). Quote
nolanfan34 Posted July 25, 2014 Posted July 25, 2014 I can't wait to see the box as well. They have been knocking it out of the park on the box art lately on the special sets IMO. Quote

That sounds bada$$.....Kind of a mix of flat and glossy black, right? Quote
Ciglione Posted July 25, 2014 Posted July 25, 2014 That sounds bada$$.....Kind of a mix of flat and glossy black, right? Yes... with a flap in the front that you can open and you can see a bit of the parts on the inside like the boxes back in the day... still dreaming... Quote
biniou Posted July 25, 2014 Posted July 25, 2014 Yes... with a flap in the front that you can open and you can see a bit of the parts on the inside like the boxes back in the day... still dreaming... yeah and when you open the flap it projects a bat-signal... 1 Quote
Ciglione Posted July 25, 2014 Posted July 25, 2014 with a big 75th anniversary logo also ... Yes... and the box is numbered: 1/500... still dreaming... 1 Quote

Ed Mack Posted July 25, 2014 Posted July 25, 2014 ... in an illegal workshop by chinese people located in your cellar ? Illegal? I pay top dollar to produce such works of art! LEGO contacted me to do all their new UCS boxes. Wait till I get my Brother P-Touch label maker from Amazon! Quote

It is 10,000 pieces in my box. It's a "Special Ed" set. I really didn't want to show too much. I might be in trouble with LEGO the way it is showing everyone this exclusive collector's set before launch. There is even an Adam West signature on the box. 1 Quote
