vicious_violet Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 Now I would not call myself a LEGO investor, I am just looking to sell my large collection of LEGO sets ( around 135 sets) and make some profit. I have a large amount of Indiana Jones sets including some of the bigger ones like Temple of Doom, The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull and Temple Escape and am looking for advice to see if it would be better to sell them now or if they are likely to grow on the market. I would really appreciate this.......Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbacunn Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 Only thing that would make them go up in value at this point is new movies. Seems likely there will be new movies but it will probably be at least 2 years. If you want to hold that long you could do better with them.

KShine Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 This theme has been a bit odd, in that I feel it has fluctuated more than other themes have over time. I buy/sell this theme all the time, and would say that it is currently in the lower end of its range. But since you are not looking to invest, but to liquidate - it might be less hassle for you, if you just sold. There are more movies coming, so interest in the theme will be higher than it is now - and the prices will go up. Whether it is worth your time to wait (and keep track of prices, etc) is up to you to decide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exciter1 Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 I've been happy with the fluctuation to the low end. I've picked about the entire theme in the past couple months. Only two sets to go. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the Indy sets are great - they also adapted well to the LEGO video games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I picked up some decently priced lots to get me started and I've hit some good auctions since then. My son was having a blast with "Temple of Doom" and I only showed him that one scene. I still remember the whole PG-13 creation after it came out. I was about that age, 12 or so, when the controversy hit. I was a little shocked by the footage and wondered how that stuff made it's way into a PG movie. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To add to this topic it depends on which set, you can still get away selling some of the Indiana Jones sets for double their retail in my case used versions of the sets but it seems like some of have just done better than others in the secondary market.

Cool, I haven't started looking for those yet. Shoot me an offline offer, if you're interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like everyone has their used 7196 for 50$ CAD but none of them are really selling for any price :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
