Audi RS Q e-tron leads Jun 22 — cooldown lifted, +42.92% forecast unlocked
LEGO Technic 42160 Audi RS Q e-tron ($126.70, −29.6% vs. $179.99 MSRP) takes the Jun 22 lead on the day its 7-day cooldown expires and fresh Jun 2026 BrickRanker data confirms the strongest forecast mid in the tracked cohort at +42.92%. Ferrari Daytona SP3 (42143) enters as secondary on a $5.15 price drop. Eleven sets in the active pool. Sideboard: 42161 Huracán Tecnica is 88 days stale with 4 days to BrickRanker's 90-day delisting threshold on Jun 26. 15th consecutive ultra-stable session; 45th consecutive zero-listing platform scan; retirement tracker adds a new Wicked theme (40 themes, 110 sets).
Cooldown expired today on 42160 Audi RS Q e-tron, making it fully eligible for the lead for the first time since Jun 15 — and today's BrickRanker data confirms why it was worth the wait. At $126.70 (−29.6% vs. $179.99 MSRP), this is the set with the strongest 2-year post-retirement appreciation forecast in the entire 11-set tracked pool. The day's only material price move belongs to the secondary: 42143 Ferrari Daytona SP3 dropped $5.15 to $330.02, deepening its discount to −26.7%. On the sideboard, 42161 Huracán Tecnica is now 88 days stale — four days from BrickRanker's 90-day delisting threshold on Jun 26. 1

#1 — 42160 Audi RS Q e-tron
Set 42160-1 | LEGO Technic | 914 pieces | 0 minifigures | MSRP $179.99 | Estimated retirement Jul 31, 2026
Loading stats card…
At $126.70 versus the $179.99 MSRP, the Audi RS Q e-tron sits at a −29.6% discount — mid-tier by raw discount depth compared to the N-1 Starfighter's −37.5% or Home One's −32.8%, but the discount is not the lead argument here. The forecast is. 1
BrickRanker's 2-year post-retirement model projects +42.92% mid appreciation, with a band running from +32.49% to +60.22% — a 27.73 percentage-point spread. Both the midpoint and the floor are the highest of any set in today's 11-set tracked pool. The floor at +32.49% means even BrickRanker's conservative estimate clears +30%, and the ceiling at +60.22% would represent a return on secondary cost of roughly $76 on a $126.70 buy-in. 1
This forecast became available today because the cooldown — put in place after the Jun 8 radar featured this set as lead — expired at midnight. Data is fresh as of Jun 2026, including two sales recorded this month at an average of $148.83. That recent-sale price ($148.83) is 17.5% above the 6-month average ($126.70), a signal that current demand may be running slightly ahead of the rolling average. 1
The set covers the Dakar Rally competitor jointly developed by Audi Sport, EKMC, and Q Performance — part of the Technic scale model line that has produced the Bugatti Chiron (42083) and Ferrari Daytona SP3 (42143), both of which have appreciated post-retirement. At 914 pieces, price-per-brick is $0.139 — on the higher end for Technic scale models but consistent with licensed vehicle sets in this tier.
Retirement is estimated at Jul 31, 2026, roughly five weeks out. The BrickRanker "Retiring soon!" tag is confirmed on the set page. 1
Authentication notes
Technic scale model fakes in this price range most commonly source knock-off bag contents at retail and re-bag them in counterfeit boxes. For 42160 specifically:
- Gearbox function: the set includes a functional differential and working suspension. Any sealed listing that ships with rattling or unusually light bag weights relative to declared piece count should be verified before opening.
- Sticker sheet: 42160 uses a dedicated sticker sheet with Audi RS Q e-tron livery decals. Counterfeits typically use lower-resolution printed substitutes; look for crisp vector edges on the racing decals in listing photos.
- Box printing: the authentic box has a matte-finish surface on the lid. Glossy box surfaces or color-shifted red-and-orange livery photography are a counterfeit signal in Technic licensed sets.
- Sealed verification: check all three primary seal strips (top edge, two side panels). Both strips must show continuous LEGO tape without cuts or re-adhesion marks.
Secondary — 42143 Ferrari Daytona SP3
Set 42143-1 | LEGO Technic | 3,778 pieces | 0 minifigures | MSRP $449.99 | Estimated retirement Jul 31, 2026
Loading stats card…
The Ferrari Daytona SP3 dropped $5.15 overnight — from ~$335.17 to $330.02 — the only price move in today's session that clears the $0.25 materiality threshold. Its discount deepened from −25.5% yesterday to −26.7% against the $449.99 MSRP. 2
With 321 total recorded sales, the Daytona SP3 has the highest secondary market liquidity of any set in today's pool. A 3,778-piece flagship Technic model at $330 translates to a $0.087 price-per-brick — notably cheaper than its original $449.99 retail pricing, and below the Audi's current per-brick cost despite being a far larger build. 2
The 2-year post-retirement forecast is +28.70% mid, with a band from +1.68% to +40.10% — a 38.42pp spread, the widest of any set in today's pool. The near-zero lower bound (+1.68%) reflects genuine model uncertainty: at $449.99 MSRP, the set's secondary market trajectory has more variables than a $50–$60 midrange set. Buyers treating this as a hold rather than a flip should weight the wide band accordingly. 2
The $5.15 drop is a single-day move. It does not indicate a trend break — the Daytona SP3 has traded in a narrow range over the past two weeks on this radar. The cooldown for this set expired today alongside the Audi, making it eligible as either a primary or secondary pick.
Other eligible entries
75325 The Mandalorian's N-1 Starfighter — deepest discount at −37.5%
Set 75325-1 | LEGO Star Wars | 412 pieces | 4 minifigures (2 exclusive) | MSRP $59.99 | Estimated retirement Jul 31, 2026
BR average: $37.49 (−37.5% vs. $59.99 MSRP), data fresh Jun 2026. The deepest single-entry discount in today's pool, but the forecast carries a 34.34pp band spanning −2.49% to +31.85% — the negative lower bound is the only such figure among today's eligible sets. Two exclusive minifigures (Peli Motto $7.28, Din Djarin $6.06) represent 61% of the set's $37.49 market value and provide a partial floor. Cooldown active until Jun 28. 3
75405 Home One Starcruiser — −32.8%, fresh data
Set 75405-1 | LEGO Star Wars | 559 pieces | 0 minifigures | MSRP $69.99 | Estimated retirement Jul 31, 2026
BR average: $47.07 (−32.8% vs. $69.99 MSRP), Jun 2026 data including one June sale at $54.28. Forecast: +20.57% mid (band 13.71%–31.85%, 18.14pp). No minifigures; all value is tied to the Mon Calamari cruiser model. Cooldown active until Jun 28. 4
75404 Acclamator-class Assault Ship — −27.6%, 101 sales
Set 75404-1 | LEGO Star Wars | 450 pieces | 0 minifigures | MSRP $49.99 | Estimated retirement Jul 31, 2026
BR average: $36.18 (−27.6% vs. $49.99 MSRP), Jun 2026 data. Forecast: +21.20% mid (band 10.81%–29.97%, 19.16pp). 101 total sales — solid volume for a set this size. Cooldown active until Jun 26. 6
75333 Obi-Wan Kenobi's Jedi Starfighter — tightest forecast band, highest volume
Set 75333-1 | LEGO Star Wars | 282 pieces | 3 minifigures (all exclusive) | MSRP $29.99 | Estimated retirement Jul 31, 2026
BR average: $22.65 (−24.5% vs. $29.99 MSRP), Jun 2026 data including 12 June sales at an average of $31.52. The 10.67pp forecast band (+12.18%–+22.85%, mid +18.07%) is the tightest in today's full pool — and with 1,568 total recorded sales, also the most liquid set tracked. All three minifigures are exclusive: Taun We ($7.28), Obi-Wan Kenobi ($5.29), and R4-P17 ($3.97), combined $16.54 = 73% of set value. Cooldown expires tomorrow (Jun 23). 9
75401 Ahsoka's Jedi Interceptor — exclusive Anakin, 74% minifig value share
Set 75401-1 | LEGO Star Wars | 290 pieces | 3 minifigures (2 exclusive) | MSRP $44.99 | Estimated retirement Jul 31, 2026
BR average: $33.95 (−24.5% vs. $44.99 MSRP), Jun 2026 first-baseline data. Forecast: +14.13% mid (band 2.39%–22.74%, 20.35pp). Anakin Skywalker ($9.92) and Ahsoka Tano in Padawan attire ($9.59) are both exclusive to this set; combined with R7-A7 ($5.52), minifigures represent 74% of the $33.95 market price. 8
31208 Hokusai – The Great Wave — +30.12% forecast, retiring Jul 31
Set 31208-1 | LEGO Art | 1,810 pieces | 0 minifigures | MSRP $99.99 | Estimated retirement Jul 31, 2026
BR average: $77.34 (−22.7% vs. $99.99 MSRP), Jun 2026 data. The 2-year forecast is +30.12% mid (band 21.93%–35.49%, 13.56pp) — the second-tightest band in today's pool after the Obi-Wan Starfighter, and among the three sets with both a tight band and a meaningful appreciation mid. Cooldown active until Jun 28. 10
10338 Bumblebee — 31 days stale, cooldown expires Jun 26
Set 10338-1 | LEGO Icons | 950 pieces | 0 minifigures | MSRP $89.99 | Estimated retirement Jul 31, 2026
BR average: $65.91 (−26.8% vs. $89.99 MSRP). Data is ~31 days old (last updated May 26). Forecast: +23.57% mid (band 6.98%–32.37%, 25.39pp). Cooldown active until Jun 26; reassess when both the cooldown expires and data hopefully refreshes simultaneously. 7
Discount vs. MSRP comparison

Jun 22 discount comparison, all tracked sets. Fountain Garden (57d stale) and Bumblebee (~31d stale) marked with single asterisk — figures may not reflect current market.

Sideboard: stale data
🚨 42161 Lamborghini Huracán Tecnica — 4 days to delisting threshold
BrickRanker's last recorded sale for the Huracán Tecnica was March 26, 2026 — the data is now 88 days stale as of Jun 22. The 90-day no-sale delisting threshold triggers Jun 26, four days from today. If no new marketplace sale is recorded and processed before then, BrickRanker may drop this set from active rankings. 1112
The numbers on file — $37.66 (−24.7% vs. $49.99 MSRP), 806 pieces, Technic, +38.89% forecast mid (band 26.24%–49.06%, 22.82pp) — are three months old and based on 23 total lifetime sales. The +38.89% mid is the second-highest forecast in the tracked pool (behind only the Audi's +42.92%), but it is anchored to a Mar 26 snapshot. The last two recorded sales were both at $42.05 on Mar 26. Do not treat $37.66 as a live price. 11
The set remains present in the BrickRanker retirement tracker with a Jul 31, 2026 tag. A single new sale clearing before Jun 26 could refresh the data and restore the set to active tracking. If no sale appears, this radar loses its BR data source for 42161. 12
10359 Fountain Garden — 57 days stale, widest forecast band
BR average: $67.64 (−32.3% vs. $99.99 MSRP), data last updated Apr 26. Forecast: +29.04% mid (band 9.61%–41.67%, 32.06pp) — the widest band in today's pool. At 26 total lifetime sales the data foundation is thin, and the 57-day data gap means $67.64 is directionally useful at best. Not yet near the 90-day threshold (33 days remaining), but trending there without a refresh. 5
Session notes
15th consecutive ultra-stable session. Every price change in today's window came in below the $0.25 materiality threshold except for the Ferrari Daytona SP3's $5.15 drop — 10 of 11 tracked sets moved less than $0.05. The sustained downward drift continues: all non-stale set prices either held flat or ticked slightly lower, and no pre-retirement scarcity premium has emerged for any Jul 31 set in the five weeks since retirement dates were confirmed. 112
Retirement tracker: 110 sets, 40 themes (+1 from Jun 21). BrickRanker added the Wicked theme today, bringing the theme total from 39 to 40. Three sets entered: 75682 Elphaba & Glinda Figures, 75683 Glinda & Elphaba's Dormitory, and 75684 Welcome to Emerald City. The total retiring-soon set count holds at 110. All 11 sets tracked by this radar retain their "Retiring soon!" tags with Jul 31, 2026 dates. 12
Cooldown calendar. Two cooldowns expired today (42160 Audi RS Q e-tron, 42143 Ferrari Daytona SP3 — both eligible and featured above). Active cooldowns: Obi-Wan Jedi Starfighter expires Jun 23; Acclamator and Bumblebee expire Jun 26; Batmobile and Mona Lisa expire Jun 26; Dune Ornithopter, Bugatti Bolide, and Great Pyramid expire Jun 25; Hokusai and N-1 Starfighter expire Jun 28. 12
45th consecutive zero-listing platform run. eBay, BrickLink, Mercari, Vinted, and Depop returned zero confirmed new listings for sealed retired LEGO sets across 45 consecutive daily checks. BrickRanker 6-month rolling averages remain the sole actionable price reference for this radar.
Price data: BrickRanker 6-month rolling averages fetched Jun 22, 2026 (window ending ~15:00 ET). All figures USD. Retirement dates are BrickRanker estimates and subject to change. 10338 Bumblebee data is May 2026 (~31 days stale) — treat as directional. 10359 Fountain Garden data is Apr 26 (57 days stale) — do not use as a live quote. 42161 Huracán Tecnica data is Mar 26 (88 days stale), delisting threshold Jun 26 — not an actionable price.
