What sets include the Blue Beetle minifigure?
Blue Beetle appears in 1 set: Batman: Scarecrow Harvest of Fear (76054-1, ~$96.09). Since it was only in one set, it can't be sourced elsewhere — that scarcity is reflected in the price.
How do I identify Blue Beetle?
Look for the BrickLink ID sh0278 — it's the definitive identifier for this figure. Blue Beetle is made up of 5 parts (a standard minifigure assembly). The parts breakdown on this page shows each component with colors. If you have a loose figure and aren't sure what it is, the brick'em scanner can identify it from a photo in a few seconds.
What's the best way to sell Blue Beetle?
List it individually on BrickLink with the ID sh0278 — buyers search by part number and will find it. Include clear photos showing condition. At $33.61, it's worth the time to list separately rather than bundling. If you have several Super Heroes figures, listing them all at once saves on the per-item effort.
Does condition matter for Blue Beetle?
At $33.61 average, yes. Buyers at this price point expect a complete figure with all accessories, no major scratches on printed elements, and tight joints. Minor play wear is generally acceptable, but cracked or heavily scratched torso prints will drop the price below average. If you have the figure new/sealed (averaging $38.05), keep it protected — the premium for mint condition is significant.
