Is LEGO Penguin & Snowflake retired?

What is the price per piece for Penguin & Snowflake?
At its $10 retail price across 139 pieces, Penguin & Snowflake works out to about $0.072 per piece. Collectors often use price per piece to judge whether a set is good value.
Is LEGO Penguin & Snowflake a good investment?
Penguin & Snowflake currently trades 349.6% 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 Penguin & Snowflake so expensive?
Penguin & Snowflake was released in 2022 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.
