The LEGO Spider-Man / Spider-Man 2 theme from 2004 was a subtheme based on Spider-Man 2, the film starring Tobey Maguire as Peter Parker. Released under the broader LEGO Spider-Man theme, these sets recreated key scenes from the movie, with Spider-Man, Doctor Octopus and other characters in builds taken from the film.
2004 LEGO Sets
2004 was a pivotal recovery year following financial losses in 2003. LEGO updated its color palette, introducing light nougat for licensed minifigures and brighter grays and browns. The company partnered with Ferrari under LEGO Racers and launched Knights’ Kingdom II, a story-driven reimagining of Castle. QUATRO expanded the preschool range, while World City, Orient Expedition, Spider-Man, and Gravity Games concluded. These shifts, along with strategic licensing, began LEGO’s long-term turnaround.
