THE Bold Prediction 2019 versions


Recommended Posts

I'll go first

Disney will go full press on marketing the 90 year old mouse...as a tester for the century mark coming up...ANYTHING w/ that 90 year emblem becomes collectible...especially high quality name brand licensed material NOT MADE BY DISNEY...enter the Brick Headz Mickey...I predict unprecedented growth 100x RRP for a MINT IN BOX (this will also start a new precedent on box condition valuation since the brickheadz boxes are so important for value...non-lego investors will see gold and keep inflating the price until the mouse turns 100. Instantly making this a top 10 mickey collectible going into 2028.  

 

Side note: popularity of the collectible boost BH sales overall w/ HArry potter series hitting 10x RRP 

Go BOLD or go home

President Trump, after learning of the LEGO Great Wall of China, changes his plan and begins construction on the “Make America Great Wall of America” between the US and Mexico...but abandons it after realizing it will cost more than traditional building materials. Unwilling to admit defeat, he builds 50 feet out of Chinese bogus bricks and it falls apart immediately.

Jeff Bezos will buy Lego and make it Amazon’s official toy brand, only available online or in Whole Foods.

Third party sellers revolt, beginning a prolonged insurgency from their strongholds in rural Dollar Generals. The war ends when Bezos receives gov. Approval to weaponize delivery drones and Alexia becomes Skynet.

You don't think eBay would actually be nice to us, would you? Amazon have gating so why not eBay? If LEGO are so Hell bent on punishing resellers...

Looks like Don is well and truly screwed, starting a Trade war with China to fill your own coffers is not a stay in power kinda move dont think he will give a rats ass though,

what about Rees Mogg and his buddies.

you ve got to be either totally new or completely out of your mind to expect that BrickHeadz (originally sold for 9.99 USD) - would in a year of even 5 yrs achieve 999 USD per box.. that is totally insane from several reasons, first of them being that they were so damn cheap that they were / have been massively hoarded all over the world, so there will never be a dry source to get some on a 2nd market..

and that's my point.

you do realize if Fort Knox was to start "selling" the price of gold would plummet...ANY high valued anything is valued BECAUSE its hoarded by hoarding experts...I have no doubt folks are hoarding these...and  most will sell it all pretty fast once it hits 10x...that's when the expert speculators w/ 6 figures to invest come into the picture.

Mickey Mouse is turning 100 freaking years old...going to any Disney theme park one thing is clear. The world loves that damn mouse.

Your underestimating the power of people who rate $5 profit as a win.

Wait....are you actually serious about this?

I would bet everything in my brickfolio, and you would only have to bet one Chima Fire bike that neither one of these Mouses will ever get to $500. My guess is that $100 by next Christmas is possible, but that is close to the ceiling.

Lego will probably rerelease a Mickey Mouse/Minnie Mouse 2 pack before then ?

2019

- Everyone realizes they didnt want  Brickheadz to begin with- investors shocked!

- Ebay slowing sales they finally lower their rates to bring back sellers.

- Tower Bridge first set to be granted evergreen status because Lego can’t move the last 2 sets they had since 2015.

- Lego brings back either Classic Space or Castle in limited sets.

- Star Wars is lowest selling line and (agree) and sets after episode 9 are scaled back.

- Huge Lego Forma push with life sized moving statues at one of the toy fairs and they be creepy. Forma master set hits 10x RRP

all depends on the seller count.  with all the attention 41625 has been getting the seller count has doubled in the last week on amazon but is still an incredibly low 11.

by comparison, minnie mouse has 30 reseller scum plying their overpriced wares.

by further comparison, captain america bh, probably the top performers of series one and going for just over $27 and has 13 sellers.

if there is one class of fan whose rabidity cannot be underestimated, it is that of the disney fan.

when there are 3 people left selling these on amazon, the price will be well north of $100.

doubt we get a 90th anniversary steam boat willie mickey-minnie two pack - they would have just done that.  

and they did just release new mickey and minnie figure sets.

in 2019 i'm expecting  donald-daisy, pluto-goofy, and peter pan - capn hook bhz to be released. 

my ultra-bold prediction is that in 2020  we get a fantasia mickey wizard remake as a tie in to the 80th anniversary of film's release.
