** The 2024 "City Space" sets abandon all pretense of being based on real space vehicles in favor of sci-fi designs, and introduce color-coded spacesuits for the minifigs, essentially becoming a sneaky [[Toys/LEGOSpace Futuron]] revival.

The sets were mind-bogglingly simple to build, with buildings made of a few specialized "juniorized" parts, cars with single-piece chassis, printed-on headlights and no doors, and uninspired designs. Thankfully the juniorization has mostly stopped after [[AuthorsSavingThrow LEGO realized its mistakes]].
* EnsembleDarkhorse: [[VideoGame/LEGOCityUndercover Chase McCain]] only appeared in two sets (not counting the promotional polybag and his ''VideoGame/LEGODimensions'' Fun Pack), but he's usually the main selling point of both because of his home game.

** The rescue helicopter set, for as small as it is (literally just being that of a helicopter and 3 minifigurines--not even a heli pad or station), ''handily'' achieved this status after them memes hit.
