About LEGO Town Accessories
Town Accessories are the packs that filled out a LEGO Town layout between 1978 and 2002, with no building of their own. Road plates make up the largest part. They came as pairs of 32x32 baseplates printed as straight, curved, T-junction or crossroad sections, and were reissued several times up to 2002. Minifigure packs are the other staple, such as 6308 Policemen (1982), 6307 Firemen (1983) and 6309 Town Minifigures (1988), which has a mechanic, a police officer, a doctor, a firefighter and an aircraft controller. The rest are road signs, trees, flowers, flags and fences.
1998 LEGO Sets
1998 marked LEGO’s leap into programmable play with the launch of LEGO Mindstorms, combining motors, sensors, and code for user-built robots. LEGO also entered digital entertainment with games like LEGO Creator, LEGO Loco, and LEGO Chess. New themes included Adventurers, following Johnny Thunder’s global expeditions, and Insectoids, a sci-fi successor to Exploriens. LEGO Castle revisited classic factions such as Crusaders and Dragon Masters, reconnecting with its medieval roots while bridging into modern set design.
