LEGO 1987 / Service Packs / Technic Sets

The LEGO Technic Service Packs theme consisted of supplemental sets designed specifically for the LEGO Technic line. Introduced primarily in the 1980s and 1990s, these packs provided specialized Technic parts, components, or mechanisms. Unlike full-fledged sets, these packs focused on offering additional or replacement pieces to enhance or complete existing Technic models. They catered to builders who needed specific parts, whether for customization, expansion, or replacement of lost elements.

1987 LEGO Sets

In 1987, LEGO continued its trajectory of innovation and expansion. A significant highlight of this year was the introduction of the LEGO Technic Computer Control, which allowed enthusiasts to combine traditional LEGO building with basic programming. This set marked one of LEGO's early forays into blending physical brick construction with digital technology, laying foundational stones for more advanced robotics and programmable sets in the years to come. The DUPLO line, designed for younger children, saw consistent growth, reinforcing LEGO's commitment to catering to various age groups.
