About 1963 LEGO Sets

1963 was pivotal for material and design innovation. LEGO completed its transition from cellulose acetate to acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), improving color stability, durability, and clutch power. The company also launched Modulex—a smaller, precision-scaled building system for architects—produced by the new subsidiary Modulex A/S. Modulex elements were based on a 5mm grid and designed for 1:20 scale modeling, expanding LEGO’s presence into professional design and planning.
