Lego is a Danish toy company established in 1932 that specializes in creating play experiences for children that aid the development of creativity through construction. As Lego increasingly capitalized on older demographics Duplo was launched in 1969, for 1 ½ to 5-year-old children specifically. Lego often partners with brands to create themed sets, and in 2013, Lego partnered with Disney to create these sets in promotion of the 2013 movie Planes. (Ref. 3) The movie premiered in Canada on August 9, 2013 to largely negative reviews. However, the film was a box office success, grossing $149,883,071, and received two sequels. (Ref. 4) The popularity of the movie among audiences is a testament to the interest in vehicles specifically aircrafts from young Canadians.

Function

For children ages 2 to 5 years old to play with while engaging with themes of aviation in relation to Disney’s Planes.

Technical

This set endeavors to teach young children the tools and processes necessary to maintain aircrafts in flight condition. The Skipper’s Flight School V39 model includes assorted standard and decorated Duplo bricks, traffic cones, trophy and podium, and personified vehicles from the movie. (Ref. 3)
