Brainiac
Released in 2015, SH0159 is the original LEGO Brainiac minifigure. 1 further variant have been produced since, with the most recent in 2018.
At £16.55, SH0159 is the highest-valued Brainiac variant on the secondary market — 8.7× the price of the most affordable variant (SH0484 - Brainiac - Short Legs at £1.90).
SH0159 ranks in the top 25% of all minifigures tracked on Brickpit by used value, and in the top 25% within the DC Comics Super Heroes theme (397 figures).
As the highest-valued Brainiac variant, SH0159's premium likely reflects its age. Collectors should note the significant spread across Brainiac variants before committing at this price point.
