Frequently asked questions

Is LEGO Santa Claus retired?
Yes — Santa Claus (40001-1) 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.

What is the price per piece for Santa Claus?
At its $5 retail price across 42 pieces, Santa Claus works out to about $0.119 per piece. Collectors often use price per piece to judge whether a set is good value.
Is LEGO Santa Claus a good investment?
Santa Claus currently trades 38.7% above its $5 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 Santa Claus so expensive?
Santa Claus was released in 2009 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.
