About Town Classic

The Town Classic minifigures are among the very first LEGO minifigures, from the years the minifigure was introduced, 1978 to 1981. They all share the same smiling face, and their torsos are plain colours or simple prints such as suits with buttons, shirts with a few buttons and a gold necklace. Shell workers in white staff the petrol stations, and construction workers, a chef and townspeople fill the first town sets. Some sets from just before 1978 have the older LEGOLAND figures, which have no arms and no printed face.
