Set Value (New/Sealed)

This chart represents the current new/sealed value of the set Big Ben since November 2018. Very high accuracy
This model of the iconic London landmark is quite impressive, standing at over 23 inches (60 cm) tall and containing 4163 pieces. It is a certain that the launch of Big Ben signals the retirement of one of the existing landmark sets because there is limited shelf space, and slots in the product lineup, so naturally something will have to be discontinued to make room for the Big Ben. Big Ben is a Creator Expert set released on June 15, 2016 for VIP members and July 1 as a general release. It was designed by Jamie Berard. A smaller-scaled Architecture model of Big Ben (21013) was released in 2012.

It was retired in November 2018 with a lifespan of 28 months. Today's value for a new/sealed Big Ben is estimated around $380 with a average yearly gain of 4% and is expected to level off closer to 3% soon. On the secondary markets, the typical price range for the set MISB/NISB is between $365 and $414. The current used prices for Big Ben can be found in the range of $239 and $309 depending on the set's condition, with an average price of $257 if it is in good overall condition.

“This is an incredible model. 10253 Big Ben looks spectacular from most angles and the level of detail represented by intricate assemblies on the exterior is unmatched. Furthermore, the numerous tiny statues are authentic and the arrangement of the windows is an almost exact... More replica of the real building.”

“The Big Ben towers over all other LEGO models at 23” (60cm) high and features a detailed facade built using LEGO statues, shields and windows. The clock tower sports 4 adjustable clock dials and even a removable roof, allowing access to the belfry.”

Get up close to Big Ben! The clock was first started on May 31st 1859, and Big Ben’s first chime rang from the 96-meter Elizabeth Tower on July 11th of the same year. This over 23” (60cm) high LEGO® interpretation of the iconic structure is a tribute to its engineering and architecture. It features a detailed facade with statues, shields and windows, and a clock tower with 4 adjustable clock dials and a removable roof allowing access to the belfry, plus buildable exterior elements including a sidewalk, lawn and a tree depicting the building’s location. This model makes a great display piece for the home or office. The building is over 23” high, 7” deep and 17” wide. Includes Elizabeth Tower, Palace of Westminster, sidewalk, lawn and tree.
