Spyrius was a LEGO Space subtheme released in 1994 that consisted of 9 sets until it was discontinued in 1996 (with some additional released sets a couple years later). The story line featured a group of spies that frequently stole technology from other factions with their robots. The Spyrius' base was found on one of the outer planets of the galaxies, also called Spyrius. After stealing items from other space factions, they would bring their catches back to their planet, and guard it with their giant robots.
1994 LEGO Sets
In 1994, LEGO experienced both milestones and challenges. While the company opened its third LEGOLAND theme park in Carlsbad, California, showcasing its global appeal, it also faced production issues. For the first time, LEGO's manufacturing exceeded its molding capacity, leading to a situation where demand outstripped supply. This capacity challenge, combined with increasing competition in the toy market, prompted the company to start reevaluating its operations and strategies to ensure sustainability and continued growth in the years ahead.
