Collector-focused builds for Pikachu, Eevee, plus the Kanto starters carry premium price tags, launching with limited bonuses tied to Pokémon’s 30th anniversary.

Overview

  • Preorders are live on Lego.com for three display sets shipping February 27: Eevee (587 pieces, $59.99), Pikachu & Poké Ball (2,050 pieces, $199.99), and the Venusaur/Charizard/Blastoise diorama (6,838 pieces, $649.99).
  • Purchases of the large starter trio set through Lego’s official channels include a Kanto Region Badge Collection gift with purchase during a limited window starting February 27, while supplies last.
  • A Mini Pokémon Center build will be available as a limited Lego Insiders reward redeemable with points, subject to availability.
  • Pricing has prompted complaints from some fans online, and media reports noted the $649.99 set’s preorders were temporarily listed as sold out on Lego’s website.
  • Regional pricing differs, with the starter trio set listed at CAD $899.99 in Canada, underscoring the line’s adult-collector positioning for the 30th anniversary.
