0 CNH1974 Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 I have the Lego Collector guide 2011 ed. It should show all sets from 1950-2011 incl promotional sets. And they are not in there. Going by the design, they are early 80s pre 85 I would say. They look to be some sort of promotional set, maybe local to Oz only. Quote
0 MartinP Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 I am guessing that these sets are promos. Sometimes promos do not have set numbers. I came to this conclusion after looking at all the sets from the Town theme in the 1980's. Quote
0 Jopat1504 Posted October 7, 2013 Author Posted October 7, 2013 Thanks for that. I had tried everywhere to locate them. Any idea on value? They have a bit of discolouration, last one is is missing a figurine and one is missing the Red Cross block otherwise complete. Looking to sell them so any help on value would be good. Thanks again Quote

Thanks again My best guess is that they are worth about $5-$10 each, but I am not 100% sure. I do not own that many sets from the 1980's. Currently my oldest set is from 1992. Quote

0 CNH1974 Posted October 8, 2013 Posted October 8, 2013 I have just discovered this site, they have inventories of sets that Peeron do not. Like 577 :) Quote
0 Jopat1504 Posted October 30, 2013 Author Posted October 30, 2013 Go email back from Lego as sent them an email. They have no record of the sets and are advising they are probably rare as they are not coming up with any information. I ll keep searching Quote

Bad thing that you cannot identify them, good thing because it means that they are rare. Quote
