    As you might be able to tell, I’m binging your videos a bit. This is excellent as are all your videos. Now, the one I can’t seem to find is the one where you spoke about selling on eBay and profit margins. I’ll keep looking but if you could shoot me that link, I would be very grateful. Cheers.

    What do you think about the unique Pieces in 75327? Especially the two printed Rebel Discs

    • @JakesBricks
      @JakesBricks  2 роки тому

      Those pieces should definitely help the value! But bc the helmets are now considered great investments I think they will be overly hoarded. And that piece specially I personally don’t think is as attractive to MOC builders compared to the imperial discs in the tie fighter helmet

    I think if they make another Bro Thor, it would be an time heist armored up Bro Thor or different versions from Endgame. I think Bro Thor has potential to have multiple versions but never the same one as the last version if you follow what I mean.

    There is one set that haunts me. It's the spiderman truck vs mysterio one with the lime green stand that mysterio has. I believe that single peice is why the set is like 50% more than it realistically should be. I overlooked it when it was on shelves and now I cant look at my standless mysterio the same haha.

    Why do your videos always default to the distracting close captioning -- which I always have to turn off?
    Anyway, glad I don't care anything for the helmets or huge scale cars. To me, the helmets are too small and end up looking overly blocky. And I never liked those huge cars because for their size, they have lots of gaps and lack windows. I like the scale of the 007 and Ghostbusters car. They end up looking much more realistic, ironically.

    • @JakesBricks
      @JakesBricks  2 роки тому +1

      Sorry Studebricker! I always have default closed captioning on for those that watch videos with low audio quality or no volume. I figured it would be more helpful than hurtful. But good to know that’s not always the case.

    What’s makes u an expert on what will be valuable and what won’t 🤷🏻‍♂️U have as much of an idea as any of us to be honest. Iv many misb sets worth a lot of money ie emerald night,train shed 10027 Modular’s like town hall iv got them all but at the time who knew what they would be worth now. It’s all luck. The likes of Modular’s are always a good bet.

      Far from an expert! Just a guy who has been buying/selling and investing in LEGO for 7 years. Hoping to share my experience so other collectors can fund their building hobby like I do! A ton of it is luck I would agree but there are some factors and indicators that help when buying sets instead of just walking into target and pulling a set off the shelf hoping it goes up in value
