Set Value (New/Sealed)

This represents the current new/sealed value of the set Roadway Base Plate since January 1970. Medium accuracy
LEGO 078 Roadway Base Plate was a Samsonite set released in 1970. It is a green baseplate that is 50x50 studs and has a roadway on it.
Roadway Base Plate is an extremely old and very rare LEGO set. We have not seen set 078-1 currently for sale online or in the hundreds of retail stores in good/new condition in over 3,025 days. Because of the rarity of this hard to find set the current estimated value of $945.72 might actually be much lower than the true value, assuming this set can be found for sale.Because Roadway Base Plate is a very old set from 1970, finding it in a sealed and good condition might be difficult thus making the true value even that much higher.
