Lego set numbering system?


What is the logic behind how Lego numbers their sets? Does it have to do with the number of pieces?

Thanks for any insight.

  • It seems to basicly be a bit random, but I think sets from themes released over a few years have close numbering. (e.g. sets from Star Wars in 2008 will probably have similar numbers) Kingcjc 20:37, November 20, 2009 (UTC)

I know it has nothing to do with number of parts, it may have to do with what theme it is. Im guessing though, they probably just attach a number to each set. Also, the numbers i have noticed do stay within a theme for each year (Like in 2003 all Bionicle sets the first digit of the number sequence is the same) but im not sure if this continues for multiple years.Brickmacktalkcontribs
