Hmm, but Knight Rider was about Hoff and his *car* KITT, rather than a bike ;)

Also, it would be better to combine your answer into a single definitive answer, rather than lots of separate ones, otherwise Chicks won't be able to accept any of them ;)

It would make sense that there wouldn't be very many sets with punny names. Jokes tend to be regional and thus difficult to translate or localize.

I can understand their motivation for avoiding it, but I am always amazed at how our regulars can find things with very little to go on.  I thought that it would be more likely in the promotional sets since those tend to be locally-focused, but flipping through brickset I didn't see anything.

@AlexanderO'Mara: I don't think that's much of a problem, given that localized set names are sometimes not even remotely related in meaning. Having a pun in one language that is entirely absent in another one would thus not pose any issue.

OP, please clarify: Are you looking specifically for *puns*, or for any kinds of jokes (for instance, I'd count the Ninjago *Template of the Ultimate Ultimate Weapon* to be quite joke-like, even though it's not a pun)?

I thought this was going to be harder to find examples of so I aimed the question pretty broadly, but since we've got good answers for the narrower version we should probably stick with puns instead of jokes generally.

Not a pun, but still an "insider joke" - the [Saturn V rocket set](https://brickset.com/article/28363/secrets-of-the-saturn-v)  has a piece count of 1969 which reflects the year of the Apollo 11 moon landing.

# What sets have been named in a punny way?

(Asked by: username_0 on 2018-09-30)

I heard speculation that [set 40358 "Bean There, Donut That"](https://brickset.com/sets/40358-1/Bean-There-Donut-That) is the only set that LEGO ever produced where the name of the set is also a joke. Is that true?  
Or are there other sets names that contain a pun or double meaning?
