LEGO 1996 / Service Packs / Town Sets

The LEGO Town Service Packs theme comprised supplementary sets designed to augment the main LEGO Town line. Available predominantly in the 1980s and 1990s, these packs offered additional parts, accessories, or specific elements related to the Town theme. Instead of presenting full models, the service packs delivered specialized components to enhance, expand, or replace parts in existing Town sets.

In 1996, the LEGO Group continued its legacy of innovation, though it was nearing a challenging period in its history. This year saw the company's ventures into digital media, with the establishment of LEGO Media, marking its initial foray into the world of video games and multimedia. Additionally, the Technic line was rebranded to create a more coherent global brand identity. While traditional brick sets remained popular, the mid-90s marked the beginning of a time when the company recognized the need for diversification and modernization to stay relevant in a rapidly evolving toy market.
