Licensed themes are any themes which involve another license. Mainly based on TV series, movies or video games, the bracket could also fall across products such as Coca-Cola and McDonald's sets and promotions.

History[]

The first licensed set was a Wooden toy named Wooden Pluto, being based on Mickey Mouse's pet dog.

The first movie and TV-based licensed themes, Star Wars and Winnie the Pooh, were introduced in 1999. Lucasfilm's license with LEGO has lasted for more than 25 years, and is still ongoing. Disney has been quite on and off in terms of themes.

After the success of these licenses, Warner Bros. decided to jump into the action. They introduced Harry Potter in 2001 and Batman in 2006.

Disney has introduced themes based off several movies, including Toy Story, Cars, Prince of Persia, and Pirates of the Caribbean.
