LEGO 2012 / Exclusive / LEGO Internal Sets

LEGO Internal Sets are specially produced sets not intended for commercial sale but for internal use within the LEGO Group or as part of specific events or promotional activities. These sets often serve purposes such as employee gifts, event giveaways, or corporate gifts and are generally not available to the public. Examples include sets given to employees during holidays or milestone anniversaries and those created for special events like LEGO conventions or partnerships with other companies. Due to their limited production and unique context, Internal Sets are often highly sought after by collectors.

2012 LEGO Sets

2012 was a very important year for LEGO license themes, namely, the contract with Lucasfilm was renewed to extend Star Wars sets until at least 2022. The LEGO Group also celebrated its 80th anniversary in August of that year. 2012 also marked the year for one of the largest number of new and important themes being released which included The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings, Marvel Super Heroes, DC Super Heroes, Monster Fighters, Friends and LEGO Friends. With the introduction of all these new themes LEGO did discontinue a number of beloved themes in 2012 which included Alien Conquest, Atlantis, Pharaoh's Quest, Kingdoms and Harry Potter which did make a return six-years later, thankfully.
