About Red Beard Runner

Red Beard Runner (6289-1) is a LEGO Pirates set released in 1996, currently averaging $314.23 used on BrickLink. It comes with 7 minifigures worth a combined $75.00. The set has retired from retail, so secondary market is the only option. The full parts inventory runs 200 pieces.

Part-out value

The minifigures account for about 24% of the set's value ($75.00 out of $314.23). The remaining value is in the parts and the set as a complete package. Selling complete will likely net more than parting out unless you have specific demand for the individual figures.

Seller notes

  • Sealed copies sell for $1111.23 vs $314.23 used — a 254% premium. If you have this set new in sealed box (NISB), price it accordingly.
  • This is a vintage set (1996). Condition of the box and instructions significantly affects value. A complete set with original box and instructions can sell for well above the average.
  • 7 minifigures at $75.00 combined value. That's a solid minifig haul — consider listing the figures individually on BrickLink where per-figure prices tend to be highest.
