But it's not just rare pieces that are selling well, with standard sets now frequently worth more than when they were new and even old bags of unsorted bricks in demand. “With the soar in popularity of Lego with both adults and children, the effect on the values of both rare, hard to find sets and new releases has been incredible," said Bev Channell, event director for Lego event BRICK 2015, running at Birmingham's NEC this week. “It’s well worth searching through your old sets to see what treasures are hiding there.” The bigger, rarer sets tend to be worth the most - but with Lego frequently refreshing its range that means any old set that's large enough could be worth upwards of £1,000. Currently, these are the most valuable sets: Sadly, to get the best prices for your Lego, it needs to be “mint in box” - which means not opened since it was bought and still factory sealed.




The good news for people who want to play with their toys is that you can still get good returns for assembled models – as long as there are no pieces missing. The easiest Lego sets to sell are Star Wars themed, with Millennium Falcons, Death Stars and X-Wings all selling well – and some prices in the thousands. But there's much more than just Star Wars selling. A look at the best-selling kits on BrickPicker shows trains, play houses, dinosaurs, Harry Potter sets, Back to the Future Deloreans and Pirate sets all featuring. Most of the sales take place on eBay, with BrickPicker providing lists of the top selling and biggest rising prices – as well as a tool letting you compare the price of sets. You can also search on eBay for sold prices of similar sets. If you've got a box of Lego, rather than a specific set, you can bulk-sell as well – although prices for these are a lot lower. That said, if you have the time and can split the box out by category (be it Star Wars, pirates, Medieval, Technic or whatever) these smaller – more specific - bundles will frequently sell for more than a job-lot of unsorted bricks.




To get the most value, you need to be selling pristine-condition Lego toys. “As with any sort of collectible, the safe storage of the collectible is very important,” Ed Mack explains in a piece on How to make money from Lego . “Although the actual Lego brick is pretty much indestructible under normal conditions, the Lego boxes and instructions need special care.” That means quite a lot of space to store them all if you're trying to make money from them, and possibly adding the cost to your insurance. Then there are the seller fees on eBay. And the shipping costs – remember, Lego is bulky and could cost quite a bit to ship. And if you're selling to a collector, they'll expect it to arrive in good condition, so packing costs go up again. Oh, and don't count your profits before you sell – the price of a set can drop fast if Lego re-introduces it while prices can rise as well as fall in line with demand too. Is Lego better than gold? 500+ VOTES SO FAR The market for old toys on eBay is much bigger than just Lego.




If you've got some old childhood clutter just gathering dust, here are 8 ways to tell if your old toys could be worth more then just memories while our guide to getting the most cash when selling old toys on eBay can be found here.It's no secret that we at GeekTech are fans of both Lego and robots. So when the two can come together in the form of a , color us interested.Lego's robot creating kit (and associated software) has come far in capturing people's imaginations since 1998, when the first kit was released. It allowed you to create specific robots easily out of a box. Fast-forward to the present: Lego is on Mindstorm NXT 2.0 and there are now Android apps, cool controllers, and dedicated Websites for hacks using the Mindstorm NXT kits. So dust off that Mindstorm kit and check out some of our favorite robots that you can make:Ever felt a little thirsty, but were tied up working on something else? this soda-fetching Mindstorm robot is here to help. Originally made as a class project, the bartender robot is controlled remotely by a computer, powered by Bluetooth.




The computer sends the robot a list of set instructions, like "look for soda". The robot will follow the instructions to the "soda station" and then return it to a pre-set location (like a sofa). Check out the little bot in the video: The Gymnastic robot is a pretty simple Mindstorm bot. It's attached to a bar, which it flips over, much like (surprise!) a gymnast. However, it also acts in a very human way. Rather than instantly being able to go straight over the bar, it rocks back and forth to gain traction to push it. It also has similar joints to a human (minus the legs), making for natural looking flips. Watch the , and then to try for yourself.That's right, give the Portrayer Robot any image to draw and it will copy it identically. Other than the Mindstorm kit, the robot is made up of a felt tip pen (you can choose the color) and some clever computer software. The software was developed by MATLAB, and the robot is programmed using NXC. Simply upload the image you want the robot to draw to the software, vectorize it and the robot will get sketching.




Look at it draw the Mona Lisa below: So, you're feeling lazy enough to get the Bartender bot above to fetch your drinks. But after having so many, you're feeling the need to go to the bathroom. There's a Mindstorm robot to even flush the toilet for you.Will Gorman built Roboflush, the robot that sits on the side of your toilet and automatically flushes -- it has an ultrasonic sensor sitting on top of the lid. Read on to get the instructions to make this and see it in action (it's not a graphic video, I promise!).One way of really showing off to your friends would be to challenge them to a game of soccer, but with robots. Other than the Mindstorm kit, these autonomous football robots come equipt with a color camera, compass, radar and light detector. Combine all these gadgets together and these robots are quite nifty at tracking where the ball is on the pitch. There's no denying that robots can beat us at most things (like, say Jeopardy, or ), so it's no surprise that by Danny Benedettelli can solve a Rubix Cube in under a minute.
