Is LEGO Ultimate Build Lightning McQueen a good investment?
Ultimate Build Lightning McQueen currently trades 520.9% above its $43 retail price, and it is retired, so no new supply is entering the market.

Why is LEGO Ultimate Build Lightning McQueen so expensive?
Ultimate Build Lightning McQueen was released in 2011 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.
