If you are looking for hot items in games and toys, Batman Legos look like a winner right now. Even though I already have tons of estate sale items, I look constantly for interesting auctions so I know what else to keep my eyes open for when I go out. Actually, I'm trying not to buy anything else at this point, but finding hot items is sort of a favorite thing that I enjoy doing.  I've been watching these for a little while because I have an old Batman toy set from the early 90s that I've been a little bit lazy about listing due to all of the small parts that need packed.


Whether you are buying or selling, consider this an alert to you. My poking around led me down a path that ended with a search for "Batman Legos" and what I found was tons of action on the selling front for Legos toys.  I found that just about any lego building system related to Batman is getting snapped up like crazy. If past trends hold true, I would imagine that these are going to just become more valuable and harder to find as we get closer to the holidays.  If Batman Lego Sets are selling like hotcakes in August, look out as we approach November and December.

Personally, I try to avoid holiday rushes on items like this because it can be so hard to predict what will happen to prices. I'm a parent though, and I know that it can get pretty frustrating when your child wants that one certain toy and you can't seem to find it anywhere!

So anyway, the hottest of the hot Batman Lego products right now seem to be:

Batman Lego 7783 Batcave: Penguin and Mr. Freeze Invasion

Batman Lego 7781 The Batmobile: Two Face's Escape

Batman Lego 7785 Arkham Asylum

Batman Lego 7782 The Batwing : The Joker's Aerial Assault

There are plenty of others, but these are pulling lots of bids right now. You can click on any of the items for more details. If you are a buyer, it’s up to you whether you want to roll the dice and wait to see if things cool off or not. By doing that of course, you run the risk of ending up with nothing at all.

If you are a potential seller looking for hot items, these seem to be a definite winner. Toys and games can be very tough to predict until you see what actually starts to sell. These are selling very well and I was also able to find several reviews that seem to indicate that Lego has done a good job with these sets. I’ve always enjoyed Legos toys but I prefer to build “freestyle” structures.

If you are a general Lego or Batman Legos fan, you've got to check out this video I found on YouTube.  It is outstanding and I can only imagine how much time was put into getting it to look so good!

Batman Legos Video Games

There are also some very popular Batman video games from Lego.  If you can find them, you're probably going to be able to turn them around in a hurry if you want to sell them.  If you are looking to buy them, well, good luck and you might want to consider finding them online.  Early.

The costs for these is running about the same right now as I'm checking, regardless of the game platform.  The most popular versions listed are Playstation 3 and Will (as you might expect) but there are also plenty of listings for Playstation 2, Xbox 360 and Nintendo DS.

The good news here is that even if you are having trouble finding these games for sale in retail outlets near you, the high competition between sellers on eBay right now should keep the games from reaching any outrageously high dollar amounts.  Another bonus with listings of this sort is that there is often a good mix of new and used items available.  Whichever you may choose, be absolutely sure that you check out the seller's return policy.  eBay has been doing a good job of getting their sellers to make things very clear lately.  If you still have any questions though, always ask!

LEGO toys and LEGO Figures have been popular for quite a while now, and they will probably stay popular as long as little kids enjoy building things!
