The LEGO Universal Building Set theme, also often referred to as the 'Universal' theme, was a series of sets released primarily in the 1970s and 1980s. These sets were somewhat similar in concept to the LEGO Basic theme. The primary characteristic of the Universal Building Set theme was its emphasis on open-ended creativity. The sets didn't belong to any specific storyline or detailed theme, like castle or space. Instead, they provided a mix of basic bricks and some specialized pieces, allowing builders to create a wide variety of models from a single set.
1991 LEGO Sets
In 1991, LEGO introduced the Paradisa theme, targeting a broader audience, particularly girls, with its pastel color scheme, beachfront settings, and vacation-themed elements. Unlike previous LEGO Town sets, Paradisa featured palm trees, beach houses, horses, and cafes, offering a more relaxed and lifestyle-based play experience while maintaining full compatibility with other LEGO themes.
