Insights

Released as a regional fast-food promotional Duplo piece, Penguin (set 1739) is retired and has constrained supply that can make sealed copies scarce, and its small, non-System Duplo format and thin trading volume mean it is better suited to completion-focused collectors than as a core long-term investment.

Set Facts

It was released as a promotional set with McDonald's in the UK.

About Duplo

The LEGO DUPLO theme was introduced as far back as 1969 and 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. Like LEGO System, DUPLO also has subthemes that are often junior versions of System themes, like Pirates and Castle and licensed themes like Disney and Super Heros.
