LEGO Fabuland Sets

The Fabuland theme included sets that depicted the land of Fabuland and introduced Fabuland Figures, characters with human-like bodies with various animal heads. Fabuland was the first LEGO theme to introduce named characters that focused around a story and was the first LEGO theme to feature licensed products such as storybooks, playing cards, children’s clothing and animated TV series to enhance the playing experience through storytelling and role play. The FABULAND figures have heads of a mammal, a reptile or a bird sometimes topped by a peaked hat, and arms and legs with motion very similar to LEGO minifigures.

The theme was one of the longest running LEGO themes which was introduced in 1979 and discontinued a decade later in 1989. The theme was known for its creative characters, scenic settings, and unique storytelling through building instructions. Fabuland's legacy continues through its specialized parts, many of which have been reused in other LEGO themes over the years.
