While the Sculptures sub-theme ended shortly one year after its debut, the Aircraft sub-theme continued with three consecutive sets from 2001 to 2003 and two sets in 20, where the subtheme officially ended with an overhaul of the original Sopwith Camel set. These sets featured large-scale sculptures and planes based on real-world aircraft, such as a model based on the Wright Flyer. In the early 2000s (decade), Lego created various uncategorized exclusive sets relating to aircraft and sculptures, beginning with the Statue of Liberty and Sopwith Camel sets, which eventually evolved into sub-themes themselves. Sub-themes Įven though most sub-themes are not official and are rather classified by the majority of the Lego community, some, such as the Modular Buildings, are officially classified and recognized by the Lego company. In 2022, The Lego Group announced the Lego Creator Expert theme will rebranded as Lego Icons in June 2022 and will be on packaging on 1 January 2023.

The Lego Creator Expert theme remains, however, boxes do not feature the logo and feature an all-black design. The Lego Group cited the reason as to make it easier for adults to see which sets were meant for their age range. In 2020, The Lego Group announced that they will be retiring the Lego Creator Expert branding and replace it with 18 +.

Older exclusives, such as set 10214: Tower Bridge, were merged into the newly created subtheme Retirement of branding This established theme of advanced models was considered to help shape Creator Expert's reputation for unorthodox techniques and distant design from typical models, with old exclusives receiving updated packaging and being merged into the newly created subtheme. In 2013, advanced models were officially classified as under Lego Creator Expert, a subtheme of Lego Creator, and received their own logo (which was updated multiple times in the future), beginning with the Palace Cinema modular building.

In this timeframe, multiple subthemes were released, such as the Modular Buildings, a series of resident, retail, and restaurant buildings introduced in 2007 and Winter Village Collection, a series of winter- holiday themed models, sometimes delving into deep fiction, introduced in 2009. Future advanced models received packaging without a logo and sold as Lego exclusives, beginning with the Statue of Liberty set in 2000. Advanced Lego models began being featured in the mid-1980s under the Lego Model Team subtheme (a subtheme of Lego System) and were discontinued in 1999 (with the exception of a re-release in 2004).
