The Melon Farm Reviews
Is this LEGO set a good investment?
“As a Minecraft set, 21138 LEGO The Melon Farm is a good investment and has been slightly outperforming a typical Minecraft set with an average annual growth hovering around 10%. While not the best year over year return for this theme, it still is a terrific investment for collectors.”

“I think LEGO have done an excellent job here. It's a bargain price, you have the previously exclusive Villager, and a pig, and new melon parts, plus it will easily integrate into an existing layout. These all appeal to the existing Minecraft collector.”
