The LEGO DUPLO theme was introduced as far back as 1969 and is designed for children ages 1 to 5. It features DUPLO figures which are much larger than minifigures and DUPLO blocks which are about twice the length, width, and height of a standard System brick. Like LEGO System, DUPLO also has subthemes that are often junior versions of System themes, like Pirates and Castle and licensed themes like Disney and Super Heros.
2021 LEGO Sets
In 2021, LEGO continued its trajectory of product expansion and innovation. One notable addition was the "LEGO VIDIYO" theme, introduced in partnership with Universal Music Group, which combined physical sets with a digital music video making experience. The company also expanded the "LEGO Art" series, allowing adults and older fans to create wall art based on various franchises. Existing themes like "Star Wars," "City," "Technic," and others received new set additions. Sustainability efforts were underscored with the announcement of prototype bricks made from recycled plastic.
