Frequently asked questions
How much is LEGO Monkey King (40381-1) worth?
LEGO Monkey King is worth approximately $25 on the secondary market today, based on current listings and completed sales. BrickStats updates this value daily.
Is LEGO Monkey King retired?
Yes — Monkey King (40381-1) 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 Monkey King gone up in value?
Yes. Monkey King launched at $10 and now trades around $25, an increase of 149.9%. See the price history chart for how it got there.
What is the price per piece for Monkey King?
At its $10 retail price across 175 pieces, Monkey King works out to about $0.057 per piece. Collectors often use price per piece to judge whether a set is good value.
Is LEGO Monkey King a good investment?
Monkey King currently trades 149.9% above its $10 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 Monkey King so expensive?
Monkey King was released in 2020 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.
