1975 - present


Duplo is a form of LEGO intended for smaller children and was introduced as a brand in 1975 although the blocks had already been around since 1972. The blocks are much bigger than the LEGO System line, and consists of various blocks and figures.

In 1977 the Duplo name was dropped in favor of Lego Preschool but it was brought back in 1979 when also the first rabbit logo was introduced, as well as the first real Duplo minifigures with movable limbs.

The name Duplo was dropped again in favor of Explore in 2002. In the 2004 spring catalog there was a reminder that Duplo was now called Explore, but that fall the well known Duplo name was back yet again.
