The LEGO Model Team theme introduced in 1986 included larger scale vehicle models with more attention to details, such as steering and drive functionality as well as visual realism of the vehicles. Model Team was discontinued after 1999 and replaced by the Creator theme.
1993 LEGO Sets
1993 introduced LEGO Belville, aimed primarily at girls with larger figures, bright colors, and lifestyle-focused play. DUPLO expanded with new trains and early learning sets, while the Castle line added Dragon Masters, introducing fantasy elements like dragons and wizards. LEGO also reissued Space Police I for a new generation of builders. Facing growing demand and capacity limits, LEGO began reassessing its manufacturing strategy. The year was both a creative and operational turning point as the company prepared for large-scale global expansion.
