About LEGO Town Promotional
Town Promotional gathers the Town sets made for companies between 1978 and 2004. Many were made for airlines, like 611 Air Canada Jet Plane (1988), 1973 Emirates Airliner (1989) and 1100 Sky Pirates (2001), which was sold only on board.
2000 LEGO Sets
2000 was a year of transition and innovation for LEGO. The company introduced RoboRiders, Knights’ Kingdom, Life on Mars, Studios, and a Soccer/Football theme while retiring veteran designer Jens Nygaard Knudsen, creator of the minifigure. Star Wars launched its first Ultimate Collector Series sets—the X-wing Fighter (7191) and TIE Interceptor (7181)—establishing LEGO’s adult collector market. BIONICLE debuted in select regions, setting the stage for a major global launch. Recognized as 'Toy of the Century,' the LEGO brick entered the new millennium as both a cultural icon and a growing creative platform.
