There are many different LEGO sets, both current and older, that can be appreciated and sought after by collectors.

The most sought-after and expensive LEGO figures are those from limited editions, such as "Cafe Corner" from the Modular Buildings series, "Taj Mahal" from the Creator Expert series, and "Mr. Gold" from the Minifigures series. The most unique LEGO figures are the ones that were only available for a short time or were released for special occasions, like "TC-14" from Celebration V in 2010 or "H. Perry" from LEGOLAND California in 2008. Collectors especially strive to acquire such rare figures, which contributes to their high prices in the secondary market.

The most sought-after/worst sets are the first Lego sets due to their small quantity. Expensive and collectible are also figures from the LEGO Collectible Minifigures series. Collectible and expensive are also figures from popular movies or games such as Star Wars, Harry Potter, or figures from the Marvel movie series that are rare to come across. However, it is still better to observe the situation on the Lego market as prices change from day to day.

At the beginning, I will say that there are many of them, but the largest number of figures sought after by collectors are figures from collector's minifigure series, especially from the first years of release. The second part consists of figures from licensed series (Star Wars, Harry Potter, Indiana Jones, Pirates of the Caribbean). It is worth mentioning the Davy Jones figure, which reaches prices of several hundred zlotys on bricklink. Expensive and sought after are also figures from several decades ago, referring to figures from the 80s and 90s, such as space western and system figures. However, the most expensive category is comprised of figures from "Comic Con," for example, Deadpool Duck. The prices of these figures reach tens of thousands of zlotys. An interesting figure is also Yoda with the "I ❤️ NY" T-shirt, which could be obtained for free on Times Square in 2013, and currently its price reaches even tens of thousands of zlotys. Lastly, I would like to add one of the most expensive figures in my opinion, which every collector would want, namely Mr. Gold, which could be obtained in limited quantities in the 10th minifigure series. Its price reaches even 20,000 zlotys.

In Warsaw, at the Blue City Shopping Center, yesterday I came across a booth only with figurines. They have many of them, for example, Mr Gold costs 4999.00 zł, Captain America 2012 costs 2900.00 zł. The booth is located on level -1.
