The LEGO DUPLO theme is designed for children ages 1 to 5. It features DUPLO figures which are much larger than minifigures and DUPLO blocks which are about twice the length, width, and height of a standard System brick.
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.
