TECHNIC is one of The LEGO Company's main lines based on creating detailed model machines and mechanical toys with specialized beams, axles, gears and connectors and primarily designed for older children and adults. The theme was first introduced as the Expert Builder series in 1977, but was officially renamed as TECHNIC in 1984. TECHNIC is still an active theme, and is one of the longest running themes in LEGO history. While most TECHNIC sets are vehicles that use pieces to mimic real vehicles, such as engine pieces, suspension, pneumatic, and transmission pieces, the TECHNIC parts have been used by various other System themes as well as LEGO Mindstorms.
1985 LEGO Sets
In 1985, LEGO continued to innovate and diversify its offerings, reinforcing its position in the global toy market. A significant milestone this year was the introduction of the LEGO Paradisa theme, which targeted a broader audience, particularly girls, by focusing on more relaxed, vacation-themed sets with pastel colors and new minifigure designs. Paradisa was one of LEGO's early attempts to cater specifically to female audiences before the introduction of themes like Friends decades later. Additionally, the foundational themes like City and Castle continued to expand with new sets.
