About LEGO Town Classic

LEGO Town was one of the LEGO Group's core themes which was based on town life and included sets such as emergency services like police and fire and civilian sets such as cars. LEGO Town incorporates many subthemes, which focus on a specific area of Town such as airport, artic, city, divers, flight, rescue, space and various others.
1979 LEGO Sets
In 1979, LEGO introduced the Fabuland theme, targeting younger children with a blend of larger parts and regular LEGO bricks. The theme featured anthropomorphic animal characters and provided a storytelling aspect. This year also saw the expansion of the LEGO Space theme, with additional sets being added. Furthermore, the LEGO Castle theme was launched, offering medieval-themed sets with castles, knights, and related elements. These developments in 1979 contributed to the diversification of LEGO's product offerings.
