🏆 Best For: Ideal for younger LEGO fans and those who enjoy simple, functional builds. ⏱ 2 hr build 🧩 120 pcs
★★★☆☆ 3.8

Fans appreciate the Brick Calendar for its functional design and the inclusion of collectible minifigure parts. However, some find the build too simple and the overall value limited compared to other LEGO sets.

📝 Our Take

The Brick Calendar is a charming and functional LEGO set. Released in 2011, it provides a unique way to display the date using LEGO bricks, making it a delightful addition to any LEGO enthusiast's desk or shelf.

This set is perfect for LEGO fans who enjoy both building and functional displays. The simple build and compact size make it a quick and satisfying project, while the inclusion of minifigure accessories adds a playful touch.

Skip this if you prefer more complex or challenging LEGO builds. Those seeking a larger, more intricate calendar display might consider building a custom MOC instead.

📈 Investment Analysis

→ Price stable
B-
Investment Grade
⏳ Active
The Brick Calendar, being a retired set from 2011, has potential as an investment. Its relatively low piece count and original MSRP suggest that appreciation will be gradual rather than explosive. However, its unique function and the inclusion of collectible minifigure parts contribute to its appeal among collectors. The stable price trend indicates consistent demand, making it a reasonable, albeit not spectacular, investment opportunity. As a retired set, its value is likely to increase slowly over time, particularly if kept in mint condition with the original packaging.
