Lego City (stylized as LEGO City) is a theme under which Lego building sets are released based on city life, with the models depicting city and emergency services (such as police and fire), airport, train, construction, and civilian services. It evolved from LEGOLAND Town as one of the three original themes that Lego produced upon its launch of the Lego minifigure in 1978 along with Castle and Space, with each of the three themes representing the 'Past' (Castle), 'Present' (Town) and 'Future' (Space). The Town brand was briefly replaced with Lego World City in 2003 and 2004 before it was simply rebranded as Lego City in 2005.
Overview
[edit]The Lego City theme traces its origins to Lego Town, a theme introduced with the first minifigures in 1978, when a completely new range of buildings and vehicles were introduced for the European markets, although Lego sets with city buildings and vehicles had been commonplace since the late 1960s.[2]
Prior to 1978, LEGOLAND-branded sets were focused mainly around buildings and vehicles which were intended to function more as static models. In 1975, a precursor to the minifigure was introduced, in the same scale but without moving parts. These "stiffs" (as they are nicknamed by LEGO enthusiasts) were still unable to ride the vehicles. This was changed with the new minifigures - in 1978 in Europa and 1979 in North America the first vehicles that were minifigure compatible were also released. In 1980, the Trains theme was completely revamped to complement the Town sets. By 1983, the remaining vehicle based sets that were not minifigure compatible had been discontinued.
All sets were originally released under the "LEGOLAND" label until it was discontinued and replaced with "Lego System" branding in 1991. Eventually, different sub-themes under the "Town" brand were used to tie together related sets, such as police, coast guard, emergency services, airport, road rescue, trains, fire, and harbor. In 1999 Lego Town was replaced by City which was known as Lego City Center in The United States.[citation needed] The theme was discontinued in 2002, and replaced by Lego World City in 2003. During the Christmas season, a City-themed advent calendar set is sold through the online Lego Shop and at retailers.
On June 22, 2019, Lego City Adventures aired on Nickelodeon during a Saturday morning lineup along with SpongeBob SquarePants. From 2020 on, the annual City Advent Calendars would be based on the show specifically, rather than Lego City in general.
In June 2020, following the murder of George Floyd by police, Lego made an announcement that they would temporarily stop marketing police-related Lego City sets. Due to misinformation claiming that they removed these sets from being sold that led to backlash, Lego issued a follow-up statement emphasizing that the sets were still for sale and that digital advertising for the sets would just be temporarily halted.[3][4][5]
In January 2021, Lego released a new plate-based road system for the City theme that differed from its predecessor, which used baseplates whose height equaled one-half of plate.[6] However, this system was criticized by some members of the Lego community due to its alleged incompatibility with the former baseplates, which had been gradually reduced in usage and limited to sets such as Lego Modular Buildings, and are less cost-effective.[7]
Sub-themes
[edit]According to BrickLink, The Lego Group has released 1476 playsets and promotional packs of the Lego City theme.[1]
Outside of Lego City's generic city and town life based sets that are released regularly (with Fire and Police being the two most prolific - both of which have been the flagship sets throughout the history of the theme), City has had various subthemes, many of which are recurring. Under the Lego Town theme, the subthemes released during the 1990s and early 2000s also had individualized branding and labeling. In 2003 and 2004,[8] the only town-based sets were released under the "World City" label. Since the launch of City in 2005, they are just labeled as City sets but often have multiple sets based around a single concept released at the same time during Lego's release schedule.
Many of these subthemes would diverge notably from the urban city life depicted in general sets, including such themes as leisure resorts, rural farming and space port rocket launching.
In September 2021, Matthew Ashton, The Lego Group's Vice President of Design announced the City alongside Friends, Creator, Classic, Technic, Speed Champions, Monkie Kid, Ninjago, Collectible Minifigures and DOTS themes were continue until at least 2023.[9]
From 1991 to 2002, sub-themes included Arctic, Boats, City Center, Classic, Coastguard, Construction, Drivers, Extreme Team, Fire, Flight, Football, Launch Command, Leisure, Maintenance, Medical, Outback, Paradisa, Police, Race, Racing, Res-Q, Shell, Space Port, Telekom, and Vehicles.[citation needed]
From 2005 to the present, sub-themes have included Airport,[10] Arctic,[11] Cargo, Coast Guard,[12] Construction, Deep Sea Explorers, Farm,[13][14][15][16] Fire, General, Harbour, Jungle, Medical, Mining,[11] Police,[11][17][18] Seasonal, Space, Town,[19] Trains,[15][16] Traffic,[20] Volcano Explorers,[10] and Wildlife Rescue.[21][22]
Stuntz is a sub-theme and was launched on 1 October 2021. Total of 10 sets being released and featured fly-wheel powered bike functionality. Also included launch ramps, flywheel stunt bikes, obstacles, building Lego flames and dare-devil type challenges.[23][24][15][25][16]
Octan
[edit]![](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/9b/Octan_logo.svg/220px-Octan_logo.svg.png)
Octan is a fictional oil company that has appeared in multiple Lego sets since 1992.[26][27] Prior to this, logos of the real-world oil companies were used. Esso was used up until 1966, when it was replaced by Shell in all markets except the United States, where Exxon was used instead. The Shell logo continued to be used on promotional sets after that time. In 2014, Lego announced it would not renew its marketing agreement with Shell, under pressure from the environmental group Greenpeace.[28]
Octan first appeared in the 1992 sets "6397 Gas N' Wash Express" and "6594 Gas Transit".[27] Since the release of the Octan name, Lego has not signed any further deals with Shell or other gas corporations, as Octan was made the primary vehicle fluid company.
Octan (or oktan) is the Danish word for octane, a component of gasoline.
Octan has appeared in a number of Lego video games. Lego Island for example features an Octan gas station and the company sponsors the race track.
In The Lego Movie, Octan is the base company of the main antagonist Lord Business. His company is the producer of almost all of the commodities in his dominion.
In the Lego set "7747 Wind Turbine Transport", a variant of the Octan logo is depicted which reads "Octan Energy", implying a new division responsible for renewable energy. In the set "60016 Tanker Truck", another variant is seen with "Energy" in much larger and fully green type. Set "60257 Service Station" is one of several that feature a third, seemingly finalized design, depicting "OctanE" with orange and blue replacing red and green respectively, as the logo on an EV station, and at least one race car sponsor (Set 60256).[original research?]
In a number of Town and City sets it is shown that Octan has a racing team that competes in at least Formula One, GT racing and rallying.[27]
Video games
[edit]A video game developed by TT Fusion called Lego City Undercover was released for the Wii U on March 18, 2013; a port of the game was released April 4, 2017, on Microsoft Windows, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.[29][30][31] A prequel to the game was also released for the Nintendo 3DS on April 21, 2013.[32] Lego City content, based on Lego City Undercover, was added to the toys-to-life video game Lego Dimensions on May 9, 2017, via a "fun pack" containing a Chase McCain minifigure and a constructible Police Helicopter.
