Is there any value in Lego boxes and instructions? 2010-2016?

I'm guessing not but thought I'd ask.

You have boxes and instructions but not the sets? Or are you just looking to keep the sets and flog the boxes etc you no longer need?

Still have all the sets, the bigger ones are built, the rest are all mixed together. Wanting to keep the actual lego but moving house so under pressure to clear the loft!

I sold a load of boxes and instructions on ebay a few years ago. They sold, not for a huge amount.
Sold them as a job lot ans took lots of photos.

I'll probably keep all the instructions for future builds and get rid of the boxes

Bricklink has a whole tab for boxes and instructions. I'm guessing there's limited market for most boxes, with a few for rarer sets which will always be in demand, but it may be worth a try.

Not surprised by the launch tower, but gutted by the shuttle. I wanted that to go with the Saturn V.

It was never very likely though given that they had a very similar set in production up until 2-3 years ago.

Can't say I was surprised by the launch tower either - it would be a bit too niche, given that it would inevitably only appeal to someone who had already bought the Saturn V set. I know it's sold well, but presumably not THAT well.....

Do the people who propose the items such as the gantry make their plans and kit part numbers available?

My lads could be interested in some of the ninjago. Have you got some better picks? I assume you have the Lego for sale as well or only boxes?

Good question. Could be a little project for the Spring!

I had a look at Rebrickable, but couldn't find it. Not sure if it's on any of the other MOC sites.

Only boxes mate sorry, no Lego.

Lego should do a Lego "concierge" service where they will provide parts for anything you want to build, you give them a list and they pick it and pack it and get it to you, they are missing a trick really as to my knowledge the only people doing this are the aftermarket.

When are the new Speed Champion sets due? I've got most of them (apart from the ridiculously expensive F1 sets) and I need my speed champion fix

Similar to their pick a brick service? https://shop.lego.com/en-GB/Pick-A-Brick-11998 not the easiest to choose all the parts for something complicated but doable.

I'm sure I read they were due for a February release when there were some leaked 2018 set pictures late last year. If that's the case, expect an announcement and official set pictures any time now....

Sounds about right. From memory, it was about the same time last year that I picked up the Ford GT/GT40 set on release.
