![]() ![]() The top and sides of the box show top and side views of the completed BrickHeadz, while the back of the box shows alternate views of the characters.Įach BrickHeadz character comes in its own bag of parts, with a separate mini-booklet of instructions. The top and bottom halves of the box are sealed with a piece of LEGO BrickHeadz tape, while the two halves of the box are made from a premium heavy-duty cardboard that’s even thicker than the boxes for LEGO Ideas and Architecture sets (the two other themes that are marketed beyond the core ages 5-12 and AFOL demographics). Unlike any other LEGO sets we’ve built, the box for Boba and Han slides open vertically. This review, in addition to providing a vicarious build experience for those not privileged enough to attend NYCC or able to purchase the set on the secondary market, will discuss LEGO’s business practice of releasing limited-run products in ways that prevent most actual builders and LEGO fans from ever getting their hands on the set. We reviewed Detention Block Rescue (the set LEGO sold at Star Wars Celebration earlier this year), and we recently purchased the New York Comic-Con exclusive 41498 Boba Fett & Han Solo in Carbonite BrickHeadz on eBay for $105 so we could bring our readers another review of a set you may not be able to get yourselves.Ĥ1498 Boba Fett & Han Solo in Carbonite includes 329 pieces, and while it was sold at the event for an already inflated $40, its original price during NYCC frankly doesn’t matter - it’s currently available ranging from $110 to $300 for Buy It Now listings on eBay and $112 to $145 for marketplace listings. Invariably, the sets reflect highly collectable subject matter like Star Wars and Marvel super heroes. Over the last few years, LEGO has released a number of limited-run sets and sold them at non-LEGO events like San Diego Comic-Con.
