Explore introduced four different ways of exploring play: explore being me explore together explore imagination and explore logic. The new brand name was used to emphasise the relationship between the bricks and the child's learning. The name Duplo was dropped again in favour of Explore in 2002. Duplo Primo was later renamed Lego Primo.
Most of the products in this line were not construction toys. In 1995, Duplo Primo was launched, which was a line aimed at children aged between 6 and 24 months. In 2005, Lego started selling Duplo trains themed as Thomas the Tank Engine. ġ993 brought a grey rail train system with a stop and start track.
DUPLO BLOCK SETS DRIVERS
In 1992, Duplo Toolo was introduced, which was a range of construction sets using screw drivers and was aimed at children between the ages of three and six. This included a Duplo people mother, father, and smaller child. In 1986, a Duplo doll house with sliding doors was introduced. Also in 1983, set number 2700 was introduced with a model of a steam engine with two train cars. These figures have a moveable head, arms, and legs and look like large Lego minifigures, but cannot be taken apart, making them safer for small children. In 1983, other Duplo figures appeared, often called Duplo people. Some brick sets were sold inside a plush version of the rabbit from the logo, that zipped closed. The name Duplo was brought back in 1979, along with a new reworked logo. The new sets included figures, doors, and two-by-six brick wagons that could act as a car or train. Small figures the size of two-by-two bricks were introduced, made up of a cylindrical head and a tapered, limbless body, similar in design to Fisher-Price's Little People. In 1977, the Duplo name was dropped in favor of Lego Preschool. With these new Duplo sets, Lego began targeting children 1 + 1⁄ 2 years old with the intention that when the children became older, their Duplo bricks could be used together with regular Lego bricks. New additions included a round-topped two-by-two stud brick and a small four-wheeled wagon with two rows of six studs. In 1975, Duplo became its own product brand, with five sets made up exclusively of Duplo bricks. In 1972, the Duplo brick with two rows of two studs was introduced. In the product catalog for 1971, the sets were described as being for children from 1 to 2 years, but were still sold mixed with Lego bricks, normally designed for ages 3 to 12. The following year, two more sets were added with blue and red wheel plates.
Launch and release Duplo bricks alongside a smaller red regular-sized Lego brick Duplo and regular-sized Lego compatibility demonstratedĭuplo bricks were introduced in 1969, in four colors: red, yellow, blue, and white. Duplo is derived from the Latin word for "duplex", meaning double. In 1968, second generation owner Godtfred Kirk Christiansen provided the idea of hollowing out the studs on the Duplo bricks to make them compatible with the system. The company initially struggled to find a scale that would fit with the existing Lego System of Play, exploring 3:1 and 4:1 scales, but eventually settled on a 2:1 scale.
Duplo products are manufactured in Nyíregyháza, Hungary.īefore its introduction in 1969, The Lego Group investigated ways to produce safe, age-appropriate Lego bricks that were larger in size than traditional bricks in order to target young children aged one-and-a-half years and above. Initially launched in 1969, the Duplo range has expanded since then to include sets with figures, cars, houses, and trains. Despite their size, they are still compatible with traditional Lego bricks. Duplo bricks are twice the size of traditional Lego bricks, making them easier to handle and less likely to be swallowed by younger children.
