This series is all about how LEGO building has progressed, trying to pinpoint the goals, priorities, and ideas behind the design process across the history of building. The Post-Classic Era is named because of how starkly it bucked against everything that defined the Classic Era. This time period was all about special parts, crazy colour variety, and thought-out worlds.
LEGO as we know it today was forged in the experimentation of this Era. Movie licenses, advanced adult-oriented models, buildable action figures, moulded dinosaurs, themes associated with animated stories, and more all began around the turn of the millennium as LEGO tried everything possible to dig themselves out of financial trouble.
A lot of LEGO from this time is strange to look at, but for some people it has a special place in their hearts, being wonderfully weird. How do you feel about the Post-Classic Era? Do you like the explosion of strange shapes and colours, or do you prefer a more simple use of basic bricks?
