if i can remember when i was a kid and it first came out. i recall it was 1893Lego was first invented in Denmark in 1932, but was not named Lego till later in 1934. Back then they were only producing handmade wooden toys.The first plastic Lego bricks called "Automatic Binding Bricks" were produced in 1949.However, these were based on "Kiddicraft Self-Locking Bricks" produced in 1947.The Lego Group began in the workshop of Ole Kirk Christiansen, a carpenter from Billund, Denmark, who began making wooden toys in 1932. In 1934 his company came to be called Lego. It expanded to producing plastic toys in 1940. In 1949 Lego began producing the now famous interlocking bricks, calling them "Automatic Binding Bricks". These bricks were based largely on the design of Kiddicraft Self-Locking Bricks, which were released in the United Kingdom in 1947. Lego modified the design of the Kiddiecraft brick after examining a sample given to it by a British supplier of an injection-moulding machine that Lego had purchased. The first Lego bricks, manufactured from cellulose acetate, were developed in the spirit of traditional wooden blocks that could be stacked upon one another; but these plastic bricks could be locked together. They had several round studs on top, and a hollow rectangular bottom. The blocks snapped together, but not so tightly that they required extraordinary effort to be separated.The first Lego set was a House.They finally made minifigures in 1950.The first ever minifigure was made in 1946.
