Popularity and Availability

It’s followed closely by Harbormaster’s Office, while Lost City is currently further behind, having filled around 20% of its available slots. Given the unique appeal and limited production, these BrickLink Designer Program Series 3 sets are expected to become rare collectibles on the aftermarket, often fetching higher prices as availability diminishes.
How to Secure Your Series 3 Set Before Time Runs Out
To pre-order a BrickLink Designer Program Series 3 set, visit the LEGO BrickLink store before October 31. Remember, you’ll need to finalize your purchase by 8 pm UK time (or 1 pm Pacific) to ensure you secure your preferred set. Once the deadline passes, these models will no longer be available through official channels, so this is your last chance to grab them without resorting to aftermarket channels.
Given the exclusive nature and limited production run of each set, collectors often turn to the aftermarket for sets they may have missed. In previous series, BrickLink Designer Program sets have appreciated in value, making these models potential investments for LEGO enthusiasts. Sets like The Art of Chocolate and Lost City are particularly attractive to collectors due to their detailed designs and high piece counts, making them prime candidates for future value growth.
