Jungle Exploration is a subtheme of City that consists of 8 sets that ran from 2024 to 2025. Most sets were released in 2024 which accounted for 5 sets. As of today, the average annual growth of sets in City Jungle Exploration is approximately 17.0% but this should level out to around 11.9% in the coming years. This change in annual growth is primarily due to the initial retirement of these sets.
The LEGO City Jungle Exploration theme, introduced in 2017, focuses on adventurous expeditions in dense jungle environments. This subtheme features sets that include various exploration vehicles such as helicopters, boats, and off-road trucks, along with detailed jungle landscapes. These landscapes often include ancient ruins, hidden treasures, and exotic animals like tigers, crocodiles, and spiders. The theme is designed to encourage imaginative play centered around exploration and discovery, with minifigures portraying explorers, scientists, and researchers. Sets like the Jungle Mobile Lab, Jungle Air Drop Helicopter, and Jungle Exploration Site are some of the notable sets.
