The LEGO DUPLO theme 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.
1985 LEGO Sets
In 1985, LEGO continued to innovate and diversify its offerings, reinforcing its position in the global toy market. A significant milestone this year was the introduction of the LEGO Paradisa theme, which targeted a broader audience, particularly girls, by focusing on more relaxed, vacation-themed sets with pastel colors and new minifigure designs. Paradisa was one of LEGO's early attempts to cater specifically to female audiences before the introduction of themes like Friends decades later. Additionally, the foundational themes like City and Castle continued to expand with new sets.
