Welcome to the busy world of LEGO® City where everyday heroes, adventurous explorers and quirky characters come to life! Whether your child spends hours playing with LEGO City sets or watching the LEGO City No Limits show, this guide is your passport to understanding who’s who in the LEGO City universe. Let’s meet the stars of the theme…
The LEGO City No Limits crew are best friends with a shared passion for city life, challenges and going extreme with no limits! While there’s only one set currently featuring these characters, they’re stars in their own right:
Just Jason – The Adrenaline Fiend!
With big stunts and a big heart, thrill-seeker Jason pushes himself to the limit with extreme sports and daring feats… gulp! He’s the main Brickles family member and part of the No Limits Crew – along with BYTZ, Mech-Max and Wanda About. Rocket Racer (vlogger and stunt rider) is his absolute icon, and the very mention of him can bring Jason to the point of fainting! He loves to push the boundaries with extreme sports. Sometimes he can find himself out of his depth – especially when it comes to math. But with the help of his friends and a bit of self-belief, he can rise to the challenge!
BYTZ – The Tech Genius!
Former pizza delivery boy, now a technician guru and the go-to gadget guy – BYTZ is an innovator who’s buzzing with energy. His true love? Slushies! You can find him tinkering with the Slushy Van, driving it or handing out free slushies to all the city folk. His nemesis? Pirate impressions. Arghhh, what a shame.
Wanda About – The Fearless Explorer
An adventurer at heart, Wanda is always documenting her discoveries and encouraging others to go beyond limits, exploring other environments outside of LEGO City. Brimming with positivity, she’s a steadfast cheerleader for her friends – always fighting their corner and celebrating their achievements. Once there’s a goal in view, Wanda is determined to see it through – whatever it takes. This is especially true when it comes to her years-long pursuit of pirate treasure.
Mech-Max – The Car Wizard
The ultimate builder! Mech-Max is a skilled mechanic at the Custom Car Garage where she fixes and levels up people’s rides. She’s passionate about building, creating cool things and – you guessed it – cars! Her motto? “Don’t just do something – overdo it!”. You can’t go too big, too colorful or too technical when it comes to the creations Mech-Max makes. In fact, anything goes! She’s made many bots in her time – from security bots to helper bots, and has assisted with numerous stunts.
Meet the Brickles
Unconventional? Tick. Hilarious? Tick. Chaotic? Tick. Loads of fun? Double tick! The Brickles are the multi-generational family belonging to Just Jason, and trust me, there’s never a dull moment with this family. Together, they have enough energy to power the whole of Bricksburg. They throw themselves into every challenge and adventure that comes their way. They’re supportive of one another and always have each other’s back. Well, that is, when they’re not competing with each other in some wacky, hilarious challenge! After all, “Brickles never quit!”.
Jenny – Out-of-this world Mom!
Brave and super supportive with a ‘shoot for the stars’ attitude, Jenny the astronaut and mom goes above and beyond, encouraging her family to dream big, wherever the adventure leads you. After all, that’s how she became an astronaut! While inspiring her family to try new things, she also shows a lot of care and heart. She makes sure everyone is kept safe and is okay. Her career shows that with determination and passion, your dreams can become a reality.
Ted – One-of-a-kind Dad!
Perhaps the quietest of the family, Jason’s dad. He may stay under the radar, but strength isn’t always loud. He shows courage when it matters most. He’s super supportive of his family and encourages them when they’re faced with challenges – he’s a steady anchor with unmatched moves that can kick butt when the moment calls for it!
Drea – Game On!
Jason’s younger sister Drea is an avid gamer who knows everything about every game EVER. Extremely intelligent and inventive, she can solve problems that her brother or others can’t. Unlike her impulsive brother, Drea is more logical and methodical in sticky situations. Just like any sibling, she can sometimes tease Jason for being a bit reckless, but she always pulls through and saves the day. The brains of the Brickles family, Drea has got this, whether it’s finding solutions or inventing clever gadgets to help on whatever adventure they’re on. She’s independent, confident and isn’t afraid to take control (or take the controller!).
Lina – You go, Grandma!
This ain’t your ordinary grandma. This grandma takes no nonsense and is as tough as they come. As a top police officer, she’s fearless and ready to dive into action – nothing stops her from protecting the City and her family. She’s wise and offers nuggets of wisdom and sometimes a bit of discipline. But she always has her family’s best interests at heart. She holds the family together, keeping them grounded but will dive, duck and roll into whatever wild adventure comes her way. Lina is proof that age really does have no limits – she’s just as daring, determined and, of course, as cool as any of those youngins!
One of the best parts of LEGO City is the ability to step into the shoes (or helmets) of its characters. Whether kids want to catch robbers like Duke DeTain, explore outer space as an astronaut, or save the day as a firefighter, LEGO City sets bring these stories to life.
Firefighters to the Rescue
Every child loves a hero, and LEGO City Firefighters make saving the day extra exciting. Sets with elements like helicopters or fire engines let kids imagine putting out fires and rescuing cats from trees. Cool!
Space Explorers
The LEGO City Space theme is a stellar way to encourage kids to dream big. Role-play as astronauts discovering new planets or launching rockets. Now, that’s out-of-this-world awesome!
Adventurers and Builders
From archeologists digging for treasure to construction workers building the city skyline, LEGO City offers endless role-playing opportunities.
LEGO City Adventures is an animated TV series set in the LEGO City universe. First released in 2019, it follows the everyday lives and adventures of the City’s residents. There’s humor, action, fun – and lots of it! With themes like police and crime, construction and vehicles, family and friendship and, of course, LEGO creativity – there’s something for everyone to enjoy.
LEGO City isn’t just about playing. By stepping into the roles of their favorite characters, kids develop creativity, storytelling skills, and even problem-solving abilities.
