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.
1999 LEGO Sets
1999 was a landmark year with the launch of LEGO Star Wars, the company’s first licensed theme, debuting alongside The Phantom Menace. This partnership with Lucasfilm transformed LEGO’s strategy and ushered in the era of licensed themes. New original lines included Rock Raiders, Slizers (Throwbots), and Adventurers: Jungle, while LEGO Education was formally established from LEGO Dacta. Several older themes—Cyberslam, TechPlay, UFO, Insectoids, Znap, and Model Team—were retired, marking a clear generational shift toward modern play concepts and digital engagement.
