About LEGO Town Shops and Services
LEGO Service and Repair is a Town subtheme which ran from 1980 to 2003 and was centered around car workshops, service stations, shops and stores. In total, it contained 27 sets and was later replaced by the City theme.
1988 LEGO Sets
In 1988, Castle introduced the Black Knights era with imposing fortresses and dragon heraldry, while Town delivered large, feature-packed sets such as racetracks and service complexes. Futuron and Blacktron—introduced the prior year—remained central to Space, with sleek exploration craft set against bold, antagonist designs.
