The LEGOLAND Vehicle theme is a subset of the broader LEGOLAND line from the 1970s and 1980s. This specific theme concentrated on various vehicles, from cars and trucks to boats and airplanes. Using a more simplistic design approach characteristic of that era, the sets aimed to recreate everyday transportation modes.
1977 LEGO Sets
In 1977, LEGO expanded its product range with new sets that focused on city life, introducing models of houses, stores, and vehicles. This year also saw the introduction of the LEGO Expert Builder series, which laid the foundation for what would later become the LEGO Technic theme. These sets featured specialized elements such as beams, gears, axles, and connectors, allowing for more mechanically complex builds, including cars, airplanes, and construction equipment.
