About This Set
LEGO dropped the Chicken Skater Pod (853958) in 2019 as part of the Seasonal Easter collection — a smaller set that's great for a quick session at 36 pieces with a retail price of $6.99. You get 1 minifigure in the box, which adds to the collectible appeal.
At $0.194 per piece, it runs a bit higher — but that often reflects larger or more specialized elements.
As a LEGO exclusive, the Chicken Skater Pod has limited retail availability — which often translates to stronger aftermarket performance once it retires.

Investment Analysis
The Chicken Skater Pod (853958) isn't retiring anytime soon, so there's no rush from an investment perspective. Sets tend to appreciate most after they leave shelves, so the real opportunity here is down the road. That said, let's look at what it's got going for it.
Overall, the investment outlook is decent.
What works in its favor:
- LEGO exclusive distribution — limited availability almost always helps post-retirement pricing
At $6.99 retail, the best strategy is to watch for sales and stock up at a discount. Seasonal performs well on the aftermarket, and the Chicken Skater Pod has the right ingredients.
Theme Background
The Chicken Skater Pod falls under the LEGO Seasonal theme, sitting in the Easter subtheme — a dedicated part of the LEGO catalog. Launched in 2019 at $6.99, it sits in the accessible end of Seasonal. The $0.194 per piece reflects the specialized elements and licensing that come with Seasonal.
The Easter subcategory within Seasonal 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 Seasonal collection.
Why This Set Is Special
LEGO Exclusive. Only available through LEGO.com and official LEGO stores — limited distribution that typically drives stronger post-retirement appreciation.
