About This Set

LEGO dropped the Eeyore (40797) in 2025 as part of the BrickHeadz Disney collection — a smaller set that's great for a quick session at 156 pieces with a retail price of $12.99.

The price-per-piece works out to $0.083, which is solid for what you're getting.

As a LEGO exclusive, the Eeyore has limited retail availability — which often translates to stronger aftermarket performance once it retires.

Key Features

  • 156 pieces — Quick, focused build that's fun without the time commitment
  • LEGO Exclusive — Limited distribution that typically drives stronger aftermarket value
  • $0.083 per piece — In line with BrickHeadz pricing
  • Disney subtheme — A popular subcategory within BrickHeadz
  • Released 2025 — BrickHeadz sets from this period are known for their build quality

Investment Analysis

The Eeyore (40797) is on its way out this year — and that's exactly when things get interesting from an investment standpoint. Once it's gone from shelves, secondary market prices usually start climbing. If you've had your eye on this one, the clock is ticking.

Overall, the investment outlook is strong.

What works in its favor:

  • Strong price-per-piece at $0.083 — lots of brick for the money
  • LEGO exclusive distribution — limited availability almost always helps post-retirement pricing

With retirement approaching, picking up the Eeyore at or below its $12.99 retail price is the move. BrickHeadz sets with these characteristics don't tend to stay cheap for long once they're gone.

Theme Background

The Eeyore falls under the LEGO BrickHeadz theme, sitting in the Disney subtheme — a dedicated part of the LEGO catalog. Launched in 2025 at $12.99, it sits in the accessible end of BrickHeadz. The $0.083 price-per-piece makes it one of the stronger values in BrickHeadz right now.

The Disney subcategory within BrickHeadz has its own collector base, and sets in this range tend to hold interest well after retirement. Worth keeping on the radar if you're building a BrickHeadz collection.

Why This Set Is Special

Part-out value 2.2x retail. The individual parts are worth $28.60 on BrickLink — 2.2x the $12.99 retail price. Exceptional part-out value.

  • LEGO Exclusive — Only available through LEGO.com and official LEGO stores — limited distribution that typically drives stronger post-retirement appreciation.
