Frequently asked questions
How much is LEGO Race Plane (42117-1) worth?
LEGO Race Plane is worth approximately $30 on the secondary market today, based on current listings and completed sales. BrickStats updates this value daily.
Is LEGO Race Plane retired?
Yes — Race Plane (42117-1) 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 Race Plane gone up in value?

What is the price per piece for Race Plane?
At its $10 retail price across 145 pieces, Race Plane works out to about $0.069 per piece. Collectors often use price per piece to judge whether a set is good value.
Is LEGO Race Plane a good investment?
Race Plane currently trades 200.2% 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 Race Plane so expensive?
Race Plane was released in 2021 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.
