About NHL Championship Challenge

NHL Championship Challenge (3578-1) is a LEGO Sports set released in 2004, currently averaging $296.55 used on BrickLink. It comes with 8 minifigures worth a combined $65.59. The set has retired from retail, so secondary market is the only option. The full parts inventory runs 61 pieces.

Part-out value

The minifigures account for about 22% of the set's value ($65.59 out of $296.55). 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

  • This is a vintage set (2004). Condition of the box and instructions significantly affects value. A complete set with original box and instructions can sell for well above the average.
  • 8 minifigures at $65.59 combined value. That's a solid minifig haul — consider listing the figures individually on BrickLink where per-figure prices tend to be highest.
