Winter Village is a series of Creator/Advanced Model sets that are focused around the winter holiday season. Initially released in 2009 with the Winter Village Toy Shop, LEGO released new sets under the Winter Village subtheme almost yearly around the holidays with sets focusing around Christmas.
2009 LEGO Sets
2009 celebrated the 10th anniversary of LEGO Star Wars and the 50th anniversary of the LEGO brick. New themes included Space Police III, Power Miners, and a revival of Pirates, while Agents 2.0 continued the high-tech spy concept. LEGO Mindstorms NXT 2.0 refined its robotics platform with enhanced sensors and programmability. The year also saw the conclusion of the original Batman line, Exo-Force, Mars Mission, and Belville, as LEGO phased out older themes in favor of new directions.
