This was a mini-figure piece, but I remember getting Radagast the Brown, and he had a small tan feather piece on his hat. Shortly after I got him, I dropped that piece on our carper which was tan in color. It was night time, so it was hard to see it. It was such a little piece, I thought it was lost forever. So I was like "oh well, I'll just order a new one on Bricklink." Ummmm...yeah, that piece in that color sold for $60-$70 (which was more than I spent on the figure). I immediately grabbed a flashlight, got on all fours, and explored every inch of that carpeted area. I thankfully found it, put it in his hat, and placed him in the set where I wanted him, never to touch it and accidentally lose it again. LOL
😂 bro the exact same thing happened to me last week lmao, spent an exorbitant amount on the fig, then proceeded to take pictures of it in the park, ended up dropping it, didn’t even realise that the feather came off, then went on bricklink, got the shock of my life. After that, I went and searched for so long and finally got the feather, safe to say that I am never ever removing it from display again. 😅
Same, though first i liked the sets [Bionicle], then i liked the lore, at least the first gen. Second? Meh. Used to be into Star Wars, back when sets were cheaper, the minifigures were yellow, and before Disney took over.
Given how rare (and in-demand) things like the green roof and the orange tail are, I am surprised we haven't seen LEGO designers look for a way to put those parts (and other rare/desirable parts that are non-licensed and still possible to bring back e.g. the sand green 1 x 2 grove brick from the Greengrocer) into new sets... We know there are set designers who are also LEGO fans and would know how desirable some of these parts are...
Most older sets were mass produced and had limited part usage. A lot of the pieces on this list are super specialized or only released in one set, something Lego didn’t really do back then
I wanna cry when I think about all the old Lego pieces I used to have. Id literally have thousands. Star wars episode one sets...darth maul...don't even get me started
I let go of ALL the first wave of LOTR Lego sets, hung on to each of the fellowship figures. Went through the faze of I'm done with this kids stuff being close to 35. I HATE ME. So much value, kept boxes as well and thought 200$ is good. My buddy still flaunts my old stuff
15:15 by definition that would make it more rare than sets that were available for sale in retail stores lol. It should be included in a list of rare Lego parts.
Probably the camera and the colors. Most of the sets are Star Wars so the gray coloring hide the dust. If you look at the Tower of Orthanc part of the video parts of it are caked in dust because they show up really well against black pieces.
I parted together Action Comics #1 last year, and was somewhat crushed when I found out I couldn't get the roof piece. I'm also miffed that we got the original Batman and Wonder Woman, but not Superman, that would have been perfect! I built an alternative and now the model is on my shelf.
It kind of surprises me that one piece is so rare in that color; UCS Star Wars printed pieces I'm expecting to be that rare, but that one piece in that color only ever being in a Comicon exclusive just seems so random. It's so rare there's not even sales data on it as an individual piece.
Are you talking about production only ? I have part 2422 in non production colors they were used by the Windsor design team in the colors green ,blue, old dark grey, light grey and tan
I have one 1x1 5 point crystal in chrome green from 1999 which only appeared in 2 sets ever and both are the only time a piece was ever colored in chrome green. Cost me about $30 in mint condition when I bought it a while back. So I guess I have something in a rare color!
Haha that car roof got me. Some other rare parts that come to mind; white hoses from Market Street, Turntable from Cafe Corner and sails from Imperial Flagship.
Hey Duck, given the size of your LEGO collection, I really hope you own your house and never plan on moving. Moving a large LEGO collection is very, very difficult. The best thing to do is break them all down, and rebuild them in your new home. They are going to fall apart during the move anyway. Anybody else have interesting stories about moving with LEGOs?
Do you have any Grangemouth bricks though? Cos I stay a couple of miles away from where they where made and my school had some, had being the key word😉
One nit-pick: You show up why some pieces are expensive - especially because they are used in certain sought-after sets. But you say that that makes them "rare". It's what makes them expensive/valuable, but doesn't change the rarity. There are certainly some bricks that are rarer, but nobody cares for them.
Hmmm; are you maybe seeing the new Singapore Skyline with Marina Bay Sands? The tile from that one only say "Singapore" on it. The original Marina Bay Sands sells for 800 to 1000 sealed. It's a cool set! Just out of our range!
You are talking about the new one not the first original one that prices up to $1000 and I actually have it and so glad I do. I’m glad I did not pass that up.
Rarest single piece I have is the Vampire pointed hair style in red. I got it for a custom Ganandorf minifig I was making. Only 2 are on the bricklink store currently. Never officially made in red and are extremely rare pieces that are only factory mistakes and extras. I think I spent like 70$ on that hair piece alone. The remaining 2 are over a hundred dollars. Sorry about that
Hey DuckBricks. How do you take care of the dust and your snapped clear hinge From MK 1 UCS Snow Speeder looks brown in the video, must be dark inside the cockpit.
The black sword that came with the Armor Shop from the 90s Castle series. Caused a couple fights on my street when one came up missing. AFAIK it’s a one-of-a-kind piece, never saw one in another set. Talking specifically about the original sword with the rounded tip. The other 99.999999999% of them are dark grey. The brown cape was pretty rare too but I had a couple of those. The Blacksmith Shop set was easy to find, unlike the Armor Shop.
DuckBricks saying “[This list] won’t be including any Bionicle masks” over an instrumental version of “As Above, So Below” is incredibly ironic Also, I’m assuming this means we’ll be getting independent lists for those four exclusionary categories if we haven’t already (minifig parts, Bonk kanohi & related parts, animals, and electronics bricks)
Hi there, I don't own any of the pieces here, but do have a story similar. I had bought a LEGO lot not long ago for $30 for 9 lbs sight unseen. I checked the pieces afterwards to find....NOT 1, NOT 2, NOT even 3.....but FOUR of the white thick windows complete with glass from the Corner Cafe. It actually has 5, so i looked them up on Bricklink & low and behold they are sold for $30-$40 each (I have 4)!! That's about 4 times what i paid for the whole lot, just for 4 pieces! Did I make a killing or what!?
Back in the 70s my cousin had a 4x1 that said Bäcker, with a pretzel on either side. It had to have been from the late 50s or early 60s as they were 6-10 years older than me.
I was definitely going to mention the green roof if you didn’t! I just recently parted out that action comics set, but had to build my own green roof to replace that piece
It makes me feel so much better hearing you saying you can’t justify spending over $100 on a single LEGO piece 😅 as a Bionicle collector I know there are a few things that I will never have in my collection such as the G2 LEGO your exclusive trans blue Gali mask
Hmm, I actually bought the bulk of 10237 The Tower of Orthanc at a charity thrift store as a steal some years ago. I need to check my old Orthanc bag and see if the ball was included or if it had rolled away before it ended up there...
He just happened to own "the ten most expensive LEGO pieces!" - either he's so lucky OR: he made the list based off sets he owned just to flex his collection
12:10: Ya wanna know the really tragic (and ironic) thing about that piece? It actually looks MUCH closer to how Zamor spheres are described in Bionicle's story than the solid green ones the Piraka sets came with by default. Why must you taunt us, Lego? Why..? T_T
Looking at the thumbnail I thought I was going to luck out with the zamar sphere because I thought it was one from the Bionicle playsets that had the black and gold spheres. Guess not 😕
Am I the only one completely anxious that he keeps walking backwards through that extremely cramped space without crashing into anything

I lost it, and I have no idea where in the house.
You must know your lego vault room well to so casually walk backwards while even talking with animated body movements and not disturb a single piece
Or he's watching himself on the screen he's holding .
I certainly don't own any of the valuable parts, but I do own the party bus, so like, close, right? Close enough. 😂
😂
I didnt even relise how much the green roof was even worth or the story behind it cause i got it as a gift from my freind in a 1kg bag of lego
0:02 one missed step and it’s game over for all of the Lego on the walls
The joy he'd have replacing them all, are u kiddin'?

Every day I am thankful for not being interested in collecting Star Wars
Instead I am cursed with Bionicle.
I am burdened with both. A cruel fate.
@@TheSculptedBrick you and your wallet have my condolences 🙏
Blessing and curse that Bionicle is discontinued, at least we don’t have to keep up with a constant flow of new sets 😅😢

15:15 by definition that would make it more rare than sets that were available for sale in retail stores lol. It should be included in a list of rare Lego parts.
Maybe it just doesn’t show up on camera properly, but how do your sets not look like they are fully caked in dust?
Probably the camera and the colors. Most of the sets are Star Wars so the gray coloring hide the dust. If you look at the Tower of Orthanc part of the video parts of it are caked in dust because they show up really well against black pieces.
Lego world has a different atmosphere obvs!!
i'd be afraid to walk into that room let alone do it backwards
Bull in a lego room?
Marina Bay Sands was available in Toys R Us stores in Singapore as well, it was not exclusive to the Marina Bay Sands gift shop.
Guess which piece I’m missing from The Tower of Orthanc?
y is him walking down the stairs backwards so impressive to me
The green car roof is on bricklink since June 30, 2023 selling for $700...
I mean at that price you may as well just buy the entire set which costs about as much.
Man, I had no idea some Bionicle masks are so valuable. Really crazy and ridiculous when you consider they're just alternate colors.
Imagine moving a lego set and accidentaly lose 150$
Genuinely happened to me…ordered the stupid ball last week…
@@tealnairn You dropped the ball on that one...
(Sorry...)
You should have excluded printed pieces.
I parted together Action Comics #1 last year, and was somewhat crushed when I found out I couldn't get the roof piece. I'm also miffed that we got the original Batman and Wonder Woman, but not Superman, that would have been perfect! I built an alternative and now the model is on my shelf.

@@troodon1096 There's currently one on BrickLink available for 700$. What a great deal!
Some wild parts in this; I can't believe what the carousel sound brick is going for! Wild. We've got a few on the list! Another great video!
I was surprised the sound brick has been around since 09. Dunno why, I thought the it was something newer.
Are you talking about production only ? I have part 2422 in non production colors they were used by the Windsor design team in the colors green ,blue, old dark grey, light grey and tan

I got one from Countdown Corner, one of the 2 sets. Those were the days.
man really couldnt take 20 seconds to dust his snow speeders before filming smh my head
Shake my head my head
Haha that car roof got me. Some other rare parts that come to mind; white hoses from Market Street, Turntable from Cafe Corner and sails from Imperial Flagship.
I recently built the flagship how are the sails worth?
Market Street and Cafe Corner, the first two of the modular series. Still got both intact, but with a few extra pieces from play years back.
Nice collection!! 💛
you cant trick us, the beginning of the vid has to be reversed! Only a mad man would walk backwards through a room full of lego structures
What about the UNICEF logo pattern panel?
The orange tail fin piece appeared in the 2018 Arctic quad copter, so the piece must only be rare with the specific sticker

I bought a random box of Lego. Was a bit expensive. Got a near mint Black Spaceman. My fav!
Where do you draw the line between hoarding and collecting?
6:08 as a singapore collector and fan of architecture theme, I find it weird how the thing is nowhere to be found in the lego store around the country
Love your videos man!
@BrickmasterCB2010 Yeah
Us too!
Great vid I'm glad you set those parameters
The fact that I used to work at a Lego resale store and we had like 10 of that green honorable mention part 💀
How do you even keep this clean???? I only have a shelf full of legos and I take an hour to clean them. Imagine cleaning this??? 😭😭😭

There are certainly some bricks that are rarer, but nobody cares for them.
You can buy a brand new, sealed Marina Bay Sands set right now for around 80USD, why does that single piece cost the same?
Hmmm; are you maybe seeing the new Singapore Skyline with Marina Bay Sands? The tile from that one only say "Singapore" on it. The original Marina Bay Sands sells for 800 to 1000 sealed. It's a cool set! Just out of our range!

You can build an even better snowspeeder cockpit if you use more than one clear window piece.

No way, I have a few of these but the sentimental value is priceless. Its not just plastic

Hey DuckBricks. How do you take care of the dust and your snapped clear hinge From MK 1 UCS Snow Speeder looks brown in the video, must be dark inside the cockpit.

bro, how often do you dust?
Is this essenger i can hear in the background? Or is it cyroshell?
It’s both actually
Man, I have that Slave I canopy piece, but I was an idiot child and sharpied "Slave I" onto it lmao
Denatured alcohol can remove Sharpie ink without damaging the piece.
