Lego bricks do not come cheap. Just ask Zhao, the Chinese artist whose Lego sculpture worth $15,000 fell victim to the clumsiness of a small child at a Lego Expo on Sunday. The sculpture, a brick version of Nick from the animated film Zootopia, fell to pieces within an hour of the exhibit's opening. SEE ALSO: Sneakers made of only legos are perfect for playtime and game time On the bright side, $15,000 worth of Lego bricks are worth the same amount whether they're assembled or dissembled. And though that number may seem high, it's not particularly surprising considering the prices of retired Lego sets that fetch much more than their original retail prices. This is some seriously pricey plastic. Wildly Expensive Lego Sets LEGO has revealed three new sets based on The LEGO Batman Movie, which will be released globally in 2017. Revealed on LEGO's Facebook page, the first set includes the Batcave, four variations of Batman, Bruce Wayne in a tuxedo, Alfred, Penguin, Batman's "Riptide" boat, and a duck-shaped vehicle labeled "duck and cover."
The Arkham Asylum set, meanwhile, appears to be the largest of the three. This set includes the asylum, Batman, Robin, police officers, and a handful of notable villains — The Joker, Dr. Quinzel, Two-Face, and more. Note the Two-Face figure appears to be based on Billy Dee Williams' portrayal of Harvey Dent in Batman (1989). The set also includes a police cruiser, security screening station, and plenty of accessories. Rounding out the list of new reveals is a smaller set focused on Mr. Freeze. The highlights of this set are Mr. Freeze himself, Freeze's Robotic suit, and a flamethrower-wielding Batman. The LEGO Batman Movie is expected to hit theaters February 10, 2017.

The whole point of LEGO Technic is about creating complex, realistic, working machines like the one in this Top Ten List… What would be of a LEGO Technic blog without a top ten list? I have built a list with the Technic sets I have been more impressed. I have a few of them and I will try for sure to get the rest. So here is the listBecause the Unimog 400 is a big big vehicle which includes Power Functions set and features a pneumatically powered, articulated crane with working grab and a recovery winch on the front. Read here my review of the LEGO 8110 Unimog.
You can still buy LEGO Technic 8110 Mercedes-Benz Unimog U 400 at Amazon but you better hurry up because it is already retired.I could give you a thousand reasons why this model should be here, but you better read my review of this fantastic set and discover it by yourself. You can buy the LEGO Technic 42009 Mobile Crane at Amazon.Because it features a double IR control and lots of Power Function motors. You can buy LEGO Technic 8043: LEGO Power Functions Motorized Excavator at Amazon but the price is plainly nuts.Just look how cool it looks, I couldn’t but buy it. Also it has IR remote control, two L Motors and one of the new servo motors ( no more rubber bands on the steering ). Read my review of this fantastic set here. You should definitively buy LEGO Technic 9398: 4X4 Crawler at AmazonAlthough it won’t take off the ground it is a really cool looking helicopter and you can add Power Functions so the rotor spins like a real helicopter. This is one of the next model I will buy.
Here is my review. I really enjoyed this set. You can order LEGO Technic 9396: Rescue Helicopter now from Amazon. There has been a few great cars on LEGO Technic, like an Enzo Ferrari. This supercar is an example of how cool it can look… although if you google a bit you will see MOC by people that make this car look like a toy. You can buy LEGO Technic 8070: Supercar from Amazon.You won’t believe how big and cool this car is. When I built it I was simply amazed. In my opinion one of the best LEGO set I have ever built in price/quality. Don’t miss my review. It is not yet late to buy it at Amazon. I am sure you won’t regret it.This is maybe the coolest set ever released by LEGO in the Technic range. With Mindstorms you can create your own robots and machines. It is so nice that I already have two EV3 and one NXT 2.0 Here you have some examples of robot I have built like the Line Follower or the Color Sorter Go and buy one before you regret about it at Amazon
I am a 100% serious. This is one of the most enlightening Technic sets that I have touch. When you build it you have the sense of understanding. You are one with the LEGO. And what the hell… the experience only cost 9€. You must read my review of the Model A and Model B. Go and check if Amazon still has it in stock because it is worth every pound you spend on it.When LEGO retired the Unimog they had a new secret weapon. This is the new set that add Power functions and pneumatic pumps for a fraction of the price of the Unimog. Right now available at Amazon I couldn’t end this list without a bike. And this bike is at the same time wonderfull and affordable. You can’t be serious? Did you see this beauty? Read my review and know why you shouldn’t miss this bike. Get one from Amazon for barely £20 Here you have the instructions booklets to build this LEGO Technic model, given that you have the parts. My best advise is get a big model and buy the rest of parts from Bricklink.
