The Nanoblock
A block full of history
It is a range of construction toys from the Kawada company, created in 1952 in Tokyo and which specialized directly in construction toys. It was in 1962 that the brand began to really make itself known with its first range of figurines called "Diablock", a construction game that strangely resembled the concept of the LEGO brand.
The bricks are nevertheless much larger, intended for young children, and of more diverse shapes. The construction sets are simple: house, fire truck or even a small store. It was in 1983 that the first SF series arrived, named "Super Adventure". There are now more detailed robots and ships that appeal to new types of consumers !
The evolution then continues over the years, keeping this idea of bricks for everyone !
We find here the "Super Adventure" edition of 2003, released to celebrate the success of the range for its 40 years.
From 2008, the range offers more bricks in bulk, allowing the user to express their creativity without limit !
The beginnings of Nanoblock
It was also during the same year that Kawada diversified its catalog by attacking adults this time with its "Nanoblock" range. The principle is still similar to LEGO, but this time the pieces are only a few millimeters thick !
Named "NB-001 Standard Color Set", it is the first product released under this name! It offers different models to build, including of course the iconic Tokyo Tower.
The latter has also recently come out and is available at Artoyz !
The arrival of the range in France
Nanoblock Pokemon
In 2013, the first models were made available in Japan, and in 2015 the Pokemon line was distributed in the United States and other countries.
Pokemon also offers miniature Nanoblock models named "Mininano", which are about 30% smaller than standard Pokemon nanoblocks. These are grouped according to their types !
