Frequently asked questions
How much is LEGO Ship (4018-1) worth?
LEGO Ship is worth approximately $7 on the secondary market today, based on current listings and completed sales. BrickStats updates this value daily.
Is LEGO Ship retired?
Yes — Ship (4018-1) 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 Ship gone up in value?
Yes. Ship launched at $2 and now trades around $7, an increase of 256.5%. See the price history chart for how it got there.
What is the price per piece for Ship?
At its $2 retail price across 12 pieces, Ship works out to about $0.167 per piece. Collectors often use price per piece to judge whether a set is good value.
Is LEGO Ship a good investment?
Ship currently trades 256.5% above its $2 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 Ship so expensive?
Ship was released in 2001 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.
