About LEGO Town Divers

LEGO Divers is a subtheme of the Town introduced in 1997 that was based around maritime exploration with all its twelve sets being released in that single year. The Divers theme's sets featured mini submarines, divers and underwater bases as well as surface ships and various forms of sea life. Divers were later replaced under the City theme and renamed Deep Sea Explorers.
1997 LEGO Sets
In 1997, the LEGO Group faced significant challenges as it grappled with a changing toy market and internal organizational shifts. While the company introduced its first-ever licensed theme, "Star Wars," laying the groundwork for one of its most successful and enduring lines, it also experienced a dip in sales for the first time since its inception. The LEGO Group recognized the need to innovate and diversify its product offerings beyond traditional brick sets, leading to endeavors in new areas like software and video games, with the launch of LEGO Island, its first PC game. This year marked a period of introspection and transformation for the iconic toy company.
