The LEGO Action Wheelers theme was part of the DUPLO brand and series of Race inspired themes. Included figures in the sets were based on the DUPLO styles. The sets themselves typically feature race cars or other supporting vehicles that came with a screwdriver or other tools where the child can take apart some pieces of the vehicles and re-assemble or replace parts. The Dozer set featured a remote control. The Action Wheelers theme ran in two waves with a totla of nine sets from 2000 and ended in 2001 when the Race theme was discontinued.
2000 LEGO Sets
The year 2000 marked a significant transition for LEGO, as the company balanced new innovations with major milestones. One of the most notable events was the retirement of Jens Nygaard Knudsen, the legendary set designer and inventor of the LEGO minifigure. His contributions shaped LEGO’s modern identity, and his departure signaled the end of an era.
