They've been seen in opposition to their fellow second-generation faction Blacktron Future Generation, but they've also sought out Spyrius agents late in their cycle.

Their uniforms are nearly identical to Futuron, but stick strictly to black and white suits with red visors. Their ships also have a distinct color scheme of black and blue with red windshields. Space Police set the standard for their mechanical designs and the practice of carrying interchangeable cells aboard all but their smallest vessels. Space Police I emerged during the transition from Blacktron to Blacktron Future Generation and dealt with both in their respective periods of activity. A handful of Space Police sets contained Blacktron characters for the police to pursue and apprehend.

"LEGO Space Police" is a term referring to three separate-yet-related Franchise/{{LEGO}} [[Toys/LEGOThemes themes]] which, [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin much as the title suggests]], are about SpacePolice organizations.

Both themes share a common set of enemies in the Blacktron faction of Toys/LEGOSpace as a whole, and a handful of Space Police sets contained Blacktron characters for the police to pursue and apprehend.

After a sizable SequelGap, Space Police was revived in 2009 and ran until 2010, and this revival is commonly called [[http://www.brickset.com/browse/themes/?theme=Space&subtheme=Space%20Police%203 "Space Police 3."]] The reboot was a seismic shift in design aesthetic, both for the police and their targets; the line now played host to a wide variety of alien criminals and their vehicles.

* GenerationXerox: Design philosophy didn’t changed much between the first and second generations, most notably retaining the double-decker cockpit wedge on larger craft.
* HeWhoMustNotBeSeen: The Galactic Council, the lawmaking body of the setting who the Space Police II answer to (and who are mentioned all of once in [[AllThereInTheManual a brief flavor write-up in the pack-in catalogs]]).
* InstantMilitia: Not confirmed in canon, but the sudden emergence of the original Space Police I (not to mention some uniform similarities) makes it seem as though they immediately sprung from the Futuron ranks fully trained and equipped to fight space crime.
* ISOStandardHumanSpaceship: Not so much in design as in color; the later Space Police II ships replace the red/black/blue balance motif with mostly gray and black punctuated by small red highlights and green windows.
* NamesTheSame: The third run had an alien by the name of Slizer, who shares his name with [[{{Slizers}} an entire LEGO theme]].
* OddlySmallOrganization: At least if you’re of the mind that every set is a one-of-a-kind ship in the setting, as Space Police II has one of the lowest number of sets in the Space theme. If not it’s more a case of Oddly Non-Diverse Organization, and with the general theme of increased regimentation this seems the more likely possibility.
* PaletteSwap: The uniforms of the Space Police I cops share the Futuron design but change to more distinct colors evocative of modern police uniforms and squad cars.
* PimpDuds: Brick Daddy, much to the [[MemeticMutation amusement of fans]].
* PrisonShip: A staple occurrence across all three runs.
* RedHerring: Blacktron of LEGOSpace was the enemy faction opposing the original Space Police runs. Come the third run, one of the aliens, Rench, had the Blacktron logo on his uniform, which itself strongly resembled the Blacktron I uniforms. Some fans hoped we would see a return soon. but then Space Police 3 got cancelled.
* [[RedArmbandOfLeadership Red Shoulders of Leadership]]: The Galactic Chief of the second run wears a striking red pair of naval-style epaulets over his spacesuit.
* RefugeInAudacity: There's a PIMP. [[WhatDoYouMeanItsForKids In a LEGO SET.]]
* [[SealedEvilInACan Sealed Evil in a Cell]]: Any set including a cell also had at least one enemy minifigure - Blacktron for the first two runs, an alien for the third - to fill it with. In the original run they were more like "normal" prison cells, but the other two provided cells similar in appearance to stasis pods.
* ShoutOut: Space Police II is possibly one to [[GreenLantern another intergalactic peacekeeping force clad in green, black and white]].
* SpaceBase: The largest sets for Space Police I and III are space police stations, and several of the aliens' sets in III fell into this.
* SpacePolice: [[CaptainObvious Duh]]. A Space Police 3 set is pictured on the trope page.
