LEGO® Nutcracker is worth approximately $19 on the secondary market today, based on current listings and completed sales. BrickStats updates this value daily.
Is LEGO® Nutcracker retired?
Yes — LEGO® Nutcracker (40640-1) has been retired by LEGO and is no longer in production. Retired sets have fixed supply, which is why their prices are driven purely by the resale market.
Has LEGO® Nutcracker gone up in value?
Yes. LEGO® Nutcracker launched at $13 and now trades around $19, an increase of 46.2%. See the price history chart for how it got there.
What is the price per piece for LEGO® Nutcracker?
At its $13 retail price across 208 pieces, LEGO® Nutcracker works out to about $0.062 per piece. Collectors often use price per piece to judge whether a set is good value.
Is LEGO® Nutcracker a good investment?
LEGO® Nutcracker currently trades 46.2% above its $13 retail price, and it is retired, so no new supply is entering the market. Past performance is not a prediction — condition, packaging and how long you hold all affect what a set actually sells for. BrickStats reports the numbers rather than giving investment advice.
Why is LEGO® Nutcracker so expensive?
LEGO® Nutcracker was released in 2023 and has since retired. Once LEGO stops producing a set, the only supply is what is already in circulation, so sealed copies in good condition compete for a shrinking pool of stock. That scarcity, not the parts, is what moves the price.
