LEGO® from 2004
LEGO® 2004: Star Wars, Racers and Spider-Man side by side
LEGO® from 2004 clearly shows how many different directions could coexist within a single year. The current collection includes Star Wars, Racers, Spider-Man, Town, DUPLO and compact X-Pod models, among others. For collectors, this is a convenient way to explore one production year without first going through all the themes separately.
A good example is the Imperial Star Destroyer Mini 4492: a compact Star Wars model that takes up little space. Alongside it are racing figures, city sets and a Spider-Man minifigure. The year is therefore the unifying factor, not one fixed building style.
From Ferrari racing figures to compact X-Pods
Those looking for LEGO® Racers from 2004 may also find individual Ferrari drivers and pit crew figures in this collection. The Aero Pod 4348 shows a completely different side of 2004: small, compact and designed to be built in multiple ways.
For minifigure collectors, it is also smart to check both the year and the part number. A LEGO® Spider-Man minifigure from 2004 may look very similar to a later version, while details on the arms, legs or print may differ. The minifigure number then helps you find exactly the right version.
Buying LEGO® from 2004: check the set number and condition
The condition of older LEGO® sets and figures can vary considerably. Therefore, always check the product description, the set or minifigure number and exactly what is included. This includes instructions, stickers, accessories and any specific parts.
De BrickPlaats may offer products as new, used, built or in another clearly indicated condition. So do not look only at the year on the collection page, but especially at the details of the individual product before making your choice.
