Fabuland is a theme that was released in 1979 and discontinued in 1989, lasting a full decade. The theme includes many sets depicting the land of Fabuland, and the many characters who inhabit it.

Overview

Fabuland characters have human-like bodies with animal heads. They are a little larger than regular Minifigures but not as large as those from the DUPLO theme, and are designed to be a transition from DUPLO to regular LEGO.

Fabuland has a unique look, and uses regular LEGO bricks and specially designed elements for the theme, such as walls, vehicle elements and roof pieces. The studs on the Fabuland bricks are normal size, but contain many elements that are unique to Fabuland and different from any other theme. Various Fabuland elements have made a return to the LEGO universe in various themes, such as Harry Potter, Castle, Belville, LEGO Games, 4 Juniors, Star Wars and SpongeBob SquarePants.

Fabuland was the first LEGO theme to feature named characters with backstories. The larger sets included an instruction book that depicted the various characters building the set and when the set was completed it contained an additional story about the set and other Fabuland characters that were not in the set. In addition, various storybooks were also sold separately. In 1986, a Fabuland-themed stop-motion puppet animation series was also produced by Film Fair Productions in the UK entitled "Edward and Friends". "Edward and Friends" aired in Canada on TVO and in the UK. A total of 19 episodes were released on VHS. There was also a story book line that contained 7 books from the series using stills from the TV show. The episodes were 5 minutes in length and taught moral stories about tolerance and helping others.

Although Fabuland has been discontinued, In 2000 LEGO released the Mickey Mouse theme the sets were largely Fabuland-based but did not have the same feel or detail as the original Fabuland theme. Mickey and Minnie were unique and used new body styles.
