Theme Analysis

When we looked deep into the data surrounding this new sub theme, we were very excited to look at such amazing growth in such a short period of time. The sets were originally priced at £45-£55 (current sets priced £60-£70).

They were all on sale for between 21 and 24 months so relatively short sale period (although Darth Vader is on sale for longer now) we love to see this from an investment perspective. The sets that we looked at were the 75274 Lego TIE Fighter Pilot Helmet, 75276 Lego Stormtrooper Helmet, 75305 Lego Scout Trooper Helmet and the 75277 Lego Boba Fett Helmet but others you may like to consider are the 75304 Lego Darth Vader Helmet, 75327 Lego Luke Skywalker Helmet, 75328 Lego The Mandalorian Helmet, 75343 Lego Dark Trooper Helmet, 75349 Lego Captain Rex Helmet, 75350 Lego Clone Commander Cody Helmet and the 75351 Lego Princess Leia Helmet.

Conclusion

These retired sets show outstanding growth and have data that cannot be argued with. We would suggest that LEGO Investors buy all current LEGO Star Wars Helmets when they have the opportunity to do so. This is certainly a theme where we would be doubling down on any potential investments.
