In 1985 LEGO released 24 Town sets across 15 subthemes. The largest Town set from 1985 was 6392 Airport with a piece count of 530 and a retail price of $52.75. The current estimated value of all these Town sets from this year is about $22,853.91 which represents a 8757.3% growth.

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.

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.
