About LEGO Town Postal
The LEGO Town / Postal theme, active from 1982 to 1998, highlighted mail and delivery services within a LEGO city. Key sets include 6362 Post Office, which served as the central hub for postal operations, and 6689 Post-Station, a smaller facility for local mail handling. The 6651 Mail Truck was essential for transporting letters and packages around the town.
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.
