Question 1

Who owns the LEGO sets I invest in?

Accepted Answer

You do. When you invest with Little Brick Capital, you retain full ownership of all LEGO sets purchased on your behalf. We handle the sourcing, authentication, storage, and insurance, but the sets belong entirely to you. You can request physical delivery of your collection at any time.

Question 2

What is the minimum investment amount?

Accepted Answer

The minimum investment is £10,000. This amount allows us to build a diversified portfolio of premium sets while keeping management costs efficient. We also accommodate larger investments of £100,000+ with customised portfolio strategies.

Question 3

What fees do you charge?

Accepted Answer

We charge a simple, one-time management fee of 5% on your invested capital. This covers portfolio curation, sourcing, and management. Storage and insurance costs are deducted upfront for the first three years. There are no hidden fees or annual charges.

Question 4

How do you select which LEGO sets to invest in?

Accepted Answer

We use proprietary data models, historical price tracking, theme analysis, and AI-supported research tools based on twenty years of tested market data. Our selection process considers factors including retirement status, theme popularity, piece count, limited editions, and historical appreciation patterns to identify sets with maximum growth potential.

Question 5

How do you diversify the portfolio?

Accepted Answer

We diversify across multiple dimensions: themes (Star Wars, Creator Expert, Architecture), price points, release years, and risk profiles. This approach includes both proven performers with steady appreciation and emerging sets with higher growth potential, balancing risk and return.

Question 6

What about the risk of LEGO re-releasing sets?

Accepted Answer

We carefully avoid categories prone to frequent reissues and focus on limited editions, exclusive releases, and sets unlikely to return. Our diversification strategy ensures that even if one set is affected, the overall portfolio remains protected.

Question 7

Where and how are the LEGO sets stored?

Accepted Answer

Your LEGO sets are stored in a clean, dry, monitored facility in the UK with professional-grade climate control. The storage environment maintains optimal temperature and humidity levels to preserve box condition. All sets are fully insured at market value and protected by 24/7 security monitoring.

Question 8

Can I take physical possession of my LEGO sets?

Accepted Answer

Yes, absolutely. You can request delivery of your sets at any time. Most investors prefer to keep them in our secure storage to maintain pristine condition and insurance coverage, but the choice is always yours. We can arrange insured shipping to your preferred address.

Question 9

How are my investments insured?

Accepted Answer

All sets are fully insured at current market value, not just the purchase price. This means as your collection appreciates, your insurance coverage automatically increases. The insurance covers damage, theft, and loss, providing complete peace of mind.

Question 10

What returns can I expect?

Accepted Answer

Based on historical performance, well-curated LEGO portfolios have doubled or tripled in value over 4-6 years. For example, a £50,000 investment could potentially grow to £100,000-£150,000 or more. However, past performance doesn't guarantee future results, and returns vary based on market conditions and set selection.

Question 11

How long should I hold my investment?

Accepted Answer

We recommend a minimum holding period of 3-5 years. The strongest gains typically occur 2-6 years after a set retires from production. Premium sets often continue appreciating for decades, so longer holding periods can yield even better returns.

Question 12

How liquid is the LEGO investment market?

Accepted Answer

The LEGO secondary market has strong and consistent buyer demand across multiple platforms. We assist with the liquidation process when you're ready to realise your returns.

Question 13

How do I get started?

Accepted Answer

Simply contact us for an initial consultation. We'll discuss your investment goals, risk tolerance, and timeline. Once you're ready to proceed, you transfer funds, and we immediately begin building your portfolio.

Question 14

How do I track my investment performance?

Accepted Answer

You receive performance reports showing current market values, appreciation rates, and portfolio composition. We also provide market insights and recommendations for optimizing your holdings. You can request an updated valuation at any time.

Question 15

What happens when I want to sell?

Accepted Answer

When you're ready to exit, we provide multiple options: we can facilitate the sale through our network of buyers, list on specialized platforms, or arrange auction house placement for premium pieces. We handle all logistics, authentication documentation, and ensure you achieve optimal prices.
