About LEGO Exclusive

Exclusive is where LEGO sets land that belong to no regular theme, mostly store exclusives, gifts with purchase, event models and one-off projects. Sets here include 40516 Everyone is Awesome from 2021, a rainbow display of single-color minifigures, and the Up-Scaled minifigures such as 40819 Up-Scaled Racing Driver Minifigure.
2008 LEGO Sets
2008 celebrated two milestones: the 50th anniversary of the LEGO brick and the 30th anniversary of the minifigure. LEGO Cuusoo (later LEGO Ideas) launched in Japan, paving the way for fan-designed sets. Indiana Jones joined Star Wars as LEGO’s second Lucasfilm theme, and Speed Racer appeared briefly alongside it. In-house lines included Agents and the debut of LEGO Architecture, aimed at adult collectors. The Green Grocer (10185) further elevated the Modular Buildings line, confirming its status among LEGO’s most prestigious collections.
