76291 LEGO Marvel: The Avengers Assemble: Age of Ultron | Recreate Epic Battles with LEGO Marvel's Avengers Assemble: Age of Ultron Set!

Published: 4 months ago

Last Updated: 1 month ago

The Marvel theme, particularly the Avengers, has enjoyed immense popularity, captivating audiences worldwide with its compelling characters and thrilling storylines. LEGO tapped into this enthusiasm by launching the LEGO Marvel Super Heroes theme in 2012. Since then, LEGO has consistently delighted fans with a variety of LEGO Marvel sets that bring the action-packed adventures of the Avengers to life. From the iconic Quinjet and Avengers Tower to detailed renditions of epic battle scenes, these sets have become favourites among LEGO enthusiasts and Marvel fans alike. The combination of beloved Superheroes, intricate designs, and interactive play features has cemented LEGO Marvel sets as highly sought-after collectibles, (especially LEGO Marvel Minifigures) allowing fans to build and relive the excitement of the Marvel universe in their own homes. Ahead of its release on August 1st, but available for pre-order now at the LEGO store, we take a look at one of the new Marvel LEGO sets - The Avengers Assemble: Age of Ultron.

Set Details

The LEGO Marvel The Avengers Assemble: Age of Ultron (76291) set brings to life the thrilling opening battle from the 2015 blockbuster Avengers: Age of Ultron. Comprising of 613 pieces, this August 2024 release is designed to delight fans of Super Hero playsets, LEGO Marvel minifigures, and model-making enthusiasts aged 10 and up. The set features iconic Marvel characters, including Hawkeye, Black Widow, Captain America, Iron Man, Thor, a large Hulk figure, and three Hydra Troopers minifigures. With a mega, modular design, the five modules can be reconfigured for endless play possibilities or combined to create a stunning display piece. The set is also packed with various weapons, accessories, and a push-along off-road vehicle.

Investment Potential

LEGO 76921 is a great multi-faceted LEGO Marvel Super Heroes set and sure to be a big hit with Marvel Super Heroes fans, coming with just over 600 pieces which make up 5 reconfigurable modules. The $100 / £90 RRP equates to quite a high 16c / 15p per brick, but this at least partly assuaged by the inclusion of 8 LEGO minifigures as well as 1 big figure of the Hulk.

Launching at the start of August 2024, is this going to be a strong LEGO investment?

Theme Analysis

The LEGO Marvel Superheroes theme was launched in 2012 and since then over 300 sets have been released of which nearly 250 are now retired. The retired LEGO Marvel Super Heroes sets deliver an average annualised growth of 10% with quite a wide range of sets and theme, some successful, some less so.

Below we have looked at some of the retired LEGO sets within the LEGO Marvel Super Heroes theme including LEGO Spider Man: Web Warriors Ultimate Bridge Battle (76057) which has more than doubled in value since retiring in 2017 with an RRP of $100 and now worth over $260 (16% annualised growth), LEGO Super Hero Airport Battle which has more than doubled its $80 RRP since retiring in 2017 (14% annualised growth) and LEGO Quinjet Aerial Battle (6869) which has seen 66% growth since retiring in 2013 (5% annualised growth).

Set Number Set Name Retired Date RRP Current Value Total Growth Annualised Growth
6869 Quinjet Aerial Battle 31/12/2013 $70 $121 73% 5%
76051 Super Hero Airport Battle 31/12/2017 $80 $199 149% 14%
76057 Spider-Man: Web Warriors Ultimate Bridge Battle 31/12/2017 $100 $309 209% 18%

Comparable Set Analysis

LEGO the Avengers: Age of Ultron sub-theme has performed in line with the overall LEGO Marvel Super Heroes theme delivering average annualised growth of 10%. We took a look at some of the retired LEGO sets below including LEGO Attack on Avengers Tower (76038) which has seen 177% growth from its $60 RRP since retiring in 2016 (15% annualised growth), LEGO The Hydra Fortress Smash which has seen just over 150% growth since retiring in 2015 with a $50 RRP (12% annualised growth) and LEGO The Avengers Quinjet City Chase which has seen nearly 70% growth since retiring in 2016 (7% annualised growth).

Set Number Set Name Retired Date RRP Current Value Total Growth Annualised Growth
76032 The Avengers Quinjet City Chase 31/12/2016 $80 $137 71% 7%
76038 Attack on Avengers Tower 31/12/2016 $60 $163 172% 14%
76041 The Hydra Fortress Smash 31/12/2015 $50 $130 160% 12%
76105 The Hulkbuster: Ultron Edition 31/12/2019 $120 $155 29% 6%

Conclusion

LEGO 76291 is a great looking LEGO set from a solid if unspectacular theme (albeit with a few gems included). Both the overall LEGO Marvel Super Heroes theme and the LEGO Avengers: Age of Ultron sub-theme both have historic returns of 10% on average and we think it is very possible this set will slightly outperform that when it retires. The only slight concern for us at Investabrick is the high price per brick but this is somewhat negated by the LEGO minifigures included.

If you are looking to purchaser to build, then LEGO 76291 is already available to pre-order from LEGO now and will be shipped for the start of August.
