Is LEGO Twirling Ariel retired?

What is the price per piece for Twirling Ariel?
At its $10 retail price across 93 pieces, Twirling Ariel works out to about $0.107 per piece. Collectors often use price per piece to judge whether a set is good value.
Is LEGO Twirling Ariel a good investment?
Twirling Ariel currently trades 50.1% 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 Twirling Ariel so expensive?
Twirling Ariel was released in 2025 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.
