How LEGOs Came Back - Video

In 2003, LEGO was losing nearly $1 million a day.

The company had chased every trend — theme parks, video games, clothing, even jewelry — while flooding stores with expensive sets that barely resembled the classic brick.
Sales collapsed, and LEGO posted its biggest losses in history.

Facing bankruptcy, new leadership sold off distractions, simplified the product line, and focused on what fans actually wanted — creative, buildable sets.
Smart partnerships with Star Wars and Harry Potter revived the brand.

By listening to its core audience, LEGO rebuilt itself — snapping back from failure to become the world’s most powerful toy brand.
