In much the same way we had with the question on categorising bricks, I think this is something better handled by other sites out there: BrickLink's list of Set Categories, or from their main catalogue page you can see a dropdown with themes listed. Peeron's Theme Tree starts here, with the core LEGO System themes starting here. BrickSet also has a list of themes, as well as the Theme Browser which lists the most popular on the page, and the complete set in a dropdown.

Each franchise has its own Adventure World, and all after Year 2 have a Battle Arena. Warner Bros. and TT Games have announced that more franchises are scheduled to be added to the game, with launches spanning from now to early 2018, and most of the in-game content being introduced through digitally downloaded updates. There are a total of 30 franchises altogetherPlease take a moment and read the Toybox of FAIL Disclaimer. Thanks!-=-I still haven't made it out to see Transformers 2 in the theater - from the reviews my friends have given me, I'll probably wait until it hits video before I bother with it.But what, in the meantime, can I use to fill the void of transforming robots in my life? Well, maybe a bootleg will help.
Sounds impressive and Transformer-y, anyway.Of course, it's NOT.To appreciate the FAIL of today's bootleg, let me familiarize you with a LEGO set from 2004. It's from the tail end of the Alpha Team theme, when the Agents-Precursors were chillin' in the arctic.This is set 4742 - Chill Speeder. Like most of the arctic Alpha Team sets, this small vehicle "transforms" into a walking Mech-Suit for the driver. It's a fairly clever set with some decent engineering and play value.Do you have the product image locked in your mind. Let's move on with the FAIL.Number 504 in the Zephyr Knight "oversized impulse item" line, the is a more-or-less direct copy of the Chill Speeder. The art focuses more on the "Robot mode" of the speeder, but you can see the vehicle mode clearly in the background on the right. It's even in roughly the same pose as the LEGO box art.I'm sure you noticed it, but it's worth mentioning the duplication of the Transformers Font in the logo art of this bootleg. The more toy lines they can claim kinship to, the more they're stealing from the advertising budgets of others.
It just makes good/illegal sense.The back of the package has the usual "build other versions" photo montage we've come to know and loathe. What's odd is that they don't show the robot mode of the basic assembly as an "alternate version."If you look, you'll see two little "T" buttons on the back. One reads "T: Amusement" and the other "T: Intelligence". We've seen these before on other Zephyr Knight bootlegs - but strangely the other toys have had a third "T", as seen from this image from The Equation Races Car...Apparently even Zephyr Knight wouldn't label this bootleg "Interesting."The side of the box has some product shots from "upcoming" Zephyr Knight sets:Note how the box style will apparently be going back to standard-sized impulse with "Snow Surface Prowl Car."I can hardly wait.This is the Mini-Figure that comes with the Ice Car Transformer. He's a clone of various LEGO figures - spanning several themes. (An Adventure torso, a Racer head, and an Alpha Team cap) What's cute is that Zephyr Knight tried to copy the style of the Arctic Alpha Team by giving the figure one black and one colored arm.
