It’s nice IF you can turn a profit on collectibles, but I don’t know if I would classify this as an “investment.”

If you enjoy LEGOs, having a collection is a source of joy.

Stepping on them, not so much.
I assumed this was more like "lego flipping" or something where you actually have to build the lego models, and people then buy the finished model instead of doing the work. Am I wrong about that?

I think the idea is the LEGO sets are in the box wrapped in shrink wrap until they are “retired.”

Then a “collector” seeks them out and buys them to keep in the plastic.

It's mostly a short term investment.

Its not my retirement plan.
