LEGO 2004 / Explore / Little Robots Sets

The LEGO Explore Little Robots theme is a subset of the LEGO Explore line, centered on characters and elements from the children's show "Little Robots." The sets, tailored for younger children, feature larger, easy-to-assemble pieces that depict familiar characters and scenes from the television series. By providing tangible building experiences based on the show's content, the theme aims to foster imaginative play while allowing children to interact with their favorite "Little Robots" characters in a tactile manner.

2004 LEGO Sets

In 2004, LEGO underwent a major shakeup as it worked to recover from record losses in 2003. This year saw significant changes in product strategy, color design, and partnerships, all of which played a role in LEGO’s long-term turnaround. One of the most controversial changes was the replacement of several long-standing LEGO colors, including gray, dark gray, brown, and violet, with newer, more vibrant shades. This shift also included the introduction of light nougat, which became the standard skin tone for many licensed minifigures.
