Theme Analysis
This set sits in the LEGO Icons them which has a great degree of variety in types of LEGO building which this model again shows. The theme has a whopping 7% average annual appreciation which cannot be ignored. We have compiled a summary below of some key LEGO Icon Sets. LEGO Ferris Wheel, LEGO Big Ben, LEGO Sydney Opera House and LEGO Vesta Wind Turbine. The only set here that has struggled so far is one that has been released a couple of times in different guises; the Sydney Opera House.
| Set Number | Set Name | Retired Date | RRP | Current Value | Total Growth | Annualised Growth |
| 10234 | Sydney Opera House | 31/12/2016 | N/A | N/A | N/A | 2% |
| 10247 | Ferris Wheel | 31/12/2018 | N/A | N/A | N/A | 9% |

Comparable Set Analysis
As well being part of a strong theme in LEGO Icons. It can be benchmarked against the following group of sets. LEGO Lord of the Rings; The Fellowship of the Ring, LEGO Lord of the Rings; The Two Towers and LEGO Lord of the rings; The Return of the King. We would also suggest that the LEGO Hobbit group of sets could certainly considered but not used in our assessment. We have shown some comparison data below from LEGO The Battle of Helms Deep, LEGO Uruk-Hai Army, LEGO Pirate Ship Ambush and LEGO Tower of Orthanc. The sets below have an average annualised growth of an amazing 16%.
| Set Number | Set Name | Retired Date | RRP | Current Value | Total Growth | Annualised Growth |
| 10237 | Tower of Orthanc | 31/07/2015 | N/A | N/A | N/A | 19% |
| 79008 | Pirate Ship Ambush | 31/12/2014 | N/A | N/A | N/A | 15% |
| 9471 | Uruk-Hai Army | 31/12/2013 | N/A | N/A | N/A | 20% |
| 9474 | The Battle of Helm's Deep | 31/12/2013 | N/A | N/A | N/A | 15% |
Conclusion
The data has driven a truly exceptional projected annual growth of 12% so this must be a no brainer for us with the strong theme performance and especially that of the comparable sets. A must buy as a LEGO.com exclusive, the only issue is whether you buy to build and/or invest!
