The three forms of minifigures, or DUPLO figures are more sizable and stable, [1] and the blocks are about twice the length, width, and height of their equivalent System brick and half the length of a QUATRO brick. It can be noted that DUPLO is compatible with normal System bricks, but only with 2x2s and further because it's too big for 1x1 and 1x2x3 bricks.
First bricks (1969 - 1975) The first DUPLO bricks and the name DUPLO appeared first in the year 1969.[2] There were originally four colours: Red, Yellow, Blue, and White. They were designed to connect more with System bricks than the newer DUPLO bricks of recent years. The bricks were 18 times larger than a regular system brick. They were released in sets 510, and 511, both with System bricks. They were considered to be System-Duplo sets, aimed at younger children. This was the beginning of the LEGO Group's products for the younger market. Two more sets were introduced the next year, adding new blue and red wheel plates. The sets were designed for 1 to 2-year-olds, but were continued to be mixed with System blocks. [3] In 1972, the first 2x2 studded brick was introduced. When DUPLO/Pre-School sets were introduced in their final form in 1969, the first DUPLO sets had a green LEGO logo. This logo was short lived, and by 1971 new DUPLO sets were introduced that used the red LEGO logo, and the text 'DUPLO' in green on the box'.
Start of the theme (1975-1980) In 1975 DUPLO became an independent theme, with five sets made up exclusively of DUPLO bricks. In 1977, the decision was taken to rename DUPLO Preschool. In the Preschool range, new DUPLO bricks were introduced, including arches and the first DUPLO figures, which did not have movable limbs. In 1979, the theme was returned to the name of DUPLO, and received its logo, a rabbit designed in a style similar to PRIMO's elephant. Continuation and new ideas (1980 - 2000) In 1983, DUPLO Figures were similar to their current design, with moveable limbs. They were more like larger minifigures than their predecessor, minus the ability to be taken apart, due to their target audience being young children. It also saw the first DUPLO Trains, and the DUPLO Baby series. 1992 saw the introduction of Toolo, in which screws where used to keep pieces together. In 1993, a grey-train rail system, 4.5v arrived. Since then there have been two others.
Only two motorized sets were released in the DUPLO theme. In 1995, DUPLO Primo was launched. (DUPLO Baby in America) On the first of January in 1997, Primo and DUPLO were officially renamed LEGO DUPLO and LEGO PRIMO. 1999 saw licensed sets introduced to DUPLO, with Winnie the Pooh Explore and licensed success (2000 to present) In 2001, DUPLO released Bob the Builder sets, which have since become one of the longest running licensed themes. In 2002, the name was once again dropped, and the theme combined with LEGO Baby to form Explore, which tried to encourage children to explore life. In late 2004, however, Explore ended and DUPLO was once again back. 2005 saw the introduction of Thomas and Friends DUPLO Train sets. In 2010, a deal with Disney saw the return of Disney characters in DUPLO sets, unseen since Mickey Mouse. Toy Story and Disney Cars all saw several sets released. Disney Cars has been released in DUPLO and Lego sets. Further more, in 2011, a second line of Winnie the Pooh sets was released, in 2012 Disney Princess was released, in 2013 Mickey Mouse & Friends, Planes and Jake and the Never Land Pirates were released, in 2014 DC Universe will be released.
With the success of the Friends line, DUPLO added more female characters and girl based sets in 2012, 2013 and 2014. Like System, DUPLO also has subthemes released. These are often juniorized versions of System themes, like Pirates and Castle. Dacta or Educational DUPLO sets are those released under LEGO's educational brand, Dacta. They are often designed for schools and include things like LEGO tables. DUPLO Town sets were introduced in 1978. The sets ranged from fire and police to circus and race related sets.
