UCS Slave I #75060 VS UCS Executer SSD #10221
The LEGO community is discussing the investment potential of two iconic Ultimate Collector Series (UCS) sets: the Slave I (set 75060) and the Super Star Destroyer (SSD) Executor (set 10221). The original poster is seeking advice on which set is likely to appreciate more in value, considering factors like box condition and potential issues with the Slave I's older red bricks.
The original poster acquired both sets sealed at a mid-market price. The Super Star Destroyer's box condition is less than ideal, while the Slave I's box is in better shape. A key concern raised is the Slave I's use of brittle red pieces, a known issue in LEGO sets from the time of its production in 2015. The poster acknowledges that paying the current market value isn't ideal but is the reality of the situation.
The discussion centers on which set presents a better investment opportunity for long-term growth. The Slave I, with its iconic design and potential for future demand, is pitted against the Super Star Destroyer, a massive and impressive model. The condition of the boxes and the potential for brick degradation in the Slave I are important factors to consider when evaluating the investment potential.
For collectors looking to preserve their sets, a LEGO display case might be a worthwhile investment.

I’m also concerned about the fact that the slave I used brittle red pieces...
