LEGO Pokémon Reveals First Sets, Launches February 2026

Must... not buy... at full price at launch... just for the badge set...

Pikachu looks like an abonimation, but the three evolved starters...bye bye money

Hashtag Uglychu. Other sets are fine ( but starters price, well, i dont know.)
I would like to have something like Lego animal crossing, but with Pokemon. Maybe next time...

I may actually consider getting the Eevee LEGO set.

$650, whoo boy.

I like the Pokemon Center. Might try to snag that.

More like gamefreaks of nature… that pikachu is uncanny

Cool for people who like Pokémon. Solid lineup of sets and prices aren’t TOO bad

I might need that Eevee...

Well, making all the LEGO Pokémon sets part of their geared-toward-adults line is certainly a choice. I guess that way they don’t conflict with their current Mega Blocks (or whatever you call them) sets for kids.

It’s good news for me! I won’t be tempted to waste my money on them.

Holy second mortgage, Batman!

Mini Pokémon Center looks cute, but when I saw the picture of the badges posted somewhere on social media, I thought they were fake. 😅

Not a Pokemon fan by any measure, but that Blastoise, Charizard, Ivysaur figure is ace. Too expensive for my blood though.

That Eevee is going to be a gift for my wife!

Me on my way to laugh at poor kids who can’t even afford the entry level set.

Jk, mega blocks has that demo covered it’s nice to see LEGO took this seriously.

One look at those prices and I’m out lol

The Eevee one looks alright, but the only one that I would have gotten is the badge set, and thats locked behind the a $650 Lego. I'll have to pass for now.

Pikachu’s face wouldn’t look nearly as ugly as it does if it weren’t for the other sets that absolutely nail their faces, Pikachu looks like a user made set the kind you see being sold by the knockoff companies.

NINE HUNDRED CANADIAN DOLLARS FOR THE KANTO STARTERS.

They look nice but jeez…I think I’ll wait for a set with Pokémon I have more of a liking towards, like Lugia.

It is a nice detail that you can change Pikachu’s tail towards your preferance.

Pokémon + LEGO = asinine prices.

At least Eevee is affordable but, good grief the rest are ridiculous.

Preordered both Eevee and Pikachu!! Pikachu looks better at different angles, and that Pokeball in LEGO form is a must collect for me. Plus it's a nice display model showing Pikachu hovering over the stand. Instant buy!

Only big bummer is that the Kanto badge collection is locked behind the starter trio set. No way I'm getting that anytime soon 🥲

I want to know why people even like Pokémon any more, considering the quality of the franchise is now at the point of EA Fifa games, Just release it and put quality last should be its new moto considering catch em all is no longer possible.

The trio one is pretty cool. But no way in hell am I paying that much for it. That's my hurdle with LEGO sets. That and I don't know what I would want to do with them after building. Shame. :/

So they’re all either super expensive or special gifts that you can’t just buy.

The Kanto trio set is so ridiculously expensive (that translates to $1,000 in Aussie bucks), and it's a pity that the Pokémon Centre set is gate-kept behind a membership (and I shudder to think of how much Lego I'd even need to buy to be deemed eligible).

Way to put off potential customers who don't normally buy Lego, because that was the one set that I might have considered. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Wasn't going to get these anyway since I'm too busy to spend any time with the LEGOs I already have, but damn... those prices are high. Let's put this into a bit of perspective: a Switch 2 without a game is 200 dollars cheaper than the Kanto starters one 😅.

Well, hopefully anyone who buys these enjoys them 😀. They do look pretty cool.

@RobTheIII You are so so wrong. Yes they are yearly releases, but each one has new mechanics or completely changes some old mechanics so it feels like a different game, despite the overall experience leading the player to the same gameplay beats on the surface.

You may only notice some things if you are hard-core into the franchise, but I promise you they are there.

But enough about FIFA, Pokemon is just a lazy cash grab at this point

I love Lego and have shared that love with my grandkids. They will be bonkers over these!

I know Lego sets can be expensive… but this is really biting the hand that feeds. The trio collection costing more than buying an actual Switch 2 with several Pokémon games is actual insanity.

As a Canadian, my wallet will be on life support if I buy any of these. My wallet was already found dead after the Switch 2.

The Pokemon Center is nice, we like the Pokemon Center.

My thoughts on each set:

• Eevee: Tempting. And cheap enough I will likely bite sometime.
• Pikachu: This reminds me of Pokemon Quest. And not in a good way. Pass.
• All three Kanto starter evolutions: As much as I DO want this trio, $650 is WAAAAY too much.
• Badge set: I'd love this, but unfortunately it's locked behind a $650 paywall. And you know any "standalone" offers will likely be from scalpers.
• Pokemon Center: Cute, but nothing I particularly want.

Lego has really lost their mind with these prices. Truly ridiculous.

Love the gen 1 starters but those prices are ludicrous, feels like exploiting the nostalgia!

I sincerely hope the Pikachu set is not the final design. It really needs some more work... it's nearly as bad as the Shadow the Hedgehog set.

Wake me up when there's Gen 7 themed sets.

About 10c per piece or lower. Decent prices for licensed Lego.

@Yosher Actually per piece the Eevee is the most expensive and the starters set is the cheapest. And all are BELOW normal licensed Lego prices.

The price per brick cost is actually fairly reasonable by Lego licensed property standards, I'm just not sure they needed to make them this big? That being said the three starter evolutions set is gorgeous and I love the badges GWP.

For the 99% of us priced out by this I urge you to check out the Mega Bloks Pokemon Movement range. They are brilliantly designed and excellent value for money.

@Ooccoo_Jr Yeah, especially the 18+ sets have been increasing in size the last few years. But those are directed at adults who have more patience than most children to build a large set like this. Also a lot of people build Lego to "wind down".

@Kiz3000 Oof, that's going to hit someone's sour spot.

way to expensive (at least the big set and the pika set)

@ShadLink As someone who owns the UCS Millenium Falcon believe me, I know!

Amazing sets but not anything I can justify spending that much money on.

@Yosher The others are just huge sets. The price per piece on both Pikachu and the starters is actually on the lower end of the spectrum.

Eevee is by far the best one both design and value wise and even then it's overpriced as f***

Why is Blastoise more pose-able than Charizard? LMFAO

@Ooccoo_Jr The biggest set I have is the Ferrari Daytona SP3. Which I thought was huge (and took almost 2 weeks to fully build). This Pokémon set is absolutely massive in comparison.

No thanks. I'll pick up another 5€ nanoblock Pokémon next time I'm in Japan instead.

Oh thank heavens, they're not what I wanted from Pokemon Lego at all. The Mini Pokemon Centre is what I'd prefer, tbh. Minifigure sized trainers and building little Pokemon towns and routes would appeal to me far more..

@ShadLink
That Ferrari looks super impressive you can tell it has a massive part count just by looking at it, I’d struggle to guess that the starter set is about 700 shy of doubling its 3,778 part count.

@Sonicka it’s crazy for what is effectively loads of plastic. I’d rather have a ps5 pro for the same price (when it was on sale anyway).

@Robot99 You will not see these sets discounted ... and the badge set is a gift with purchase set ... which means you have to buy the big set to get it.

no thanks. I'd rather get games

For everyone complaining about the prices ... LEGO typically charges 10 - 12 cents per piece. So the bigger the piece count, the bigger the price. Granted it does not matter what size the actual pieces are - a 1 X 1 stud and a 24 X 24 plate will essentially have the same price. But just based on piece count, these sets are on the lower end of the price per piece sets and do not seem to include a licensing tax compared to the Star Wars sets and others.

I don't understand why the Kanto starters can't be sold as individual sets that you can put together once you have all three, should you decide to purchase all three of them. I don't have that kind of money, just give me Charizard.
But wait, there's more! You NEED to buy the trio to get the stupid badge set that could have just been sold on its own, but no, who needs money, am I right? Certainly not our customers, and we don't need them to be able to buy this badge set as a standalone purchase. That would be too affordable for them! Can't have that! Oh and that Pokémon Center? I've spent quite a bit on LEGOs over the past couple of years and I only have HALF the required points for it! This is what happens when two companies that are overrun with greed collaborate with each other. To hell with LEGO, to hell with Pokémon! I will not be purchasing from either company!

The Kanto starters are legit perfect. That’s a very hard not purchase for me as that’s a hefty chunk of my rent right there lol.

If they make a Ditto or a Gyarados one. Or Espeon. Well I'll have to get them....

Bloody hell, those starters evolutions are beyond expensive.
And they kinda have an… element of designed by Micheal Bay, so full of jagged edges. I mean, yeah they’re Lego, but the Megabloks Charizard and Pikachu are not as ugly… and a lot cheaper. Eevee looks good though. Will consider on a discount.

All looks and are priced as expected. Almost 7000 pcs for the starters is an absolutely insane build and priced accordingly. Getting them all.

Got the Lego Game Boy DMG. Now my wallet must go to the dark side of the save deposit box! 😭

You build it once and can’t reasonably ever build it again. Then it sits somewhere as a generic piece of plastic

The starters is the coolest set ever, but not for 650 bucks🥀

Eevee and the starters look good, Pikachu looks hideous.

@Lizuka $200, please!

Ok, nobody tell me partner she's getting a Lego Eevee for her birthday. These are great.

@AllBLK yes, Lego is greedy but I know for a fact from a friend of a friend that Nintendo's asking fee to use their IP's costs Lego more than Disney's.

Which is insane when you think how many more Disney sets there are compared to Nintendo. I'm sure a big reason for the prices is Nintendo.

@Indielink @ShadLink I am aware, but doesn't change the fact that Eevee is the most affordable one, even if it's more expensive on a per-brick basis.

You know, I'd wonder if enough people would buy this to make it worth it, but... it's Pokémon. It's very likely gonna sell like hotcakes despite the price.

How about I pay 80 bucks for the starter trio set? I mean that's a lot of money still... Just crazy.

@foursider I think it's just the mouth. If the sticker/piece has the mouth closed, it would look quite a bit better.

The starter set is indeed very expensive and II can't afford it either like a lot of people have mentioned in the comments but as a lego enthusiast it's important to memtion that lego set pricing has to be taken in the perspectibe of the number of pieces
From that perspective the pricing of that set is very reasonable
I usualy benchmark sets on the Lego Lamborghini Sian , which is 400 euros for 4000 pieces , from that perspective over 6800 pieces for 650 is pretty matching even if unaffordable because of it's size (but not nintendo or lego greed for once)
(The Sian is lego technic tho so not a 1 to 1 but the point stands imho)

@SillyG
Around 400 dollars worth of lego (actually marginally less of it's several sets)
If you're already a regular lego buyer ober several years it's not that much , but it's understandable that a lot of nintendo fans aren't and therefore frustrated , it would bebinteresting to know if thebexclusivity is annintendo or lego dexision and why it was done (except with the kanto set it was probably to push people to buy the expensive set obviously , but thr lego points part is odd)

@Yosher Lego is always roughly 10ct per piece.

@KayFiOS
Odd that you don't have the points if you have years wirth of lego , it shouldbbe less than 400 euros for these points , have you registered most of your legos ? If not you might still be able to register them tobget the points mecessary (also maybe you bouggt them not from the site or stores
(Also sorry everyone from commenting in this section so much , I just love lego a liot

Imagine paying 200 bucks for that ugly Pikachu. The Eevee looks great tho! And only 60!

Not interested in any of these. Should have released bigger Pokémon Center with minifigures instead. I also wished for LEGO to release models of Pokémon cities/towns or buildings that I can integrate into my LEGO city.

I was excited until I saw those prices. Woof.

@NFrealinkling
Lol what a crazy thing to say... the big one is 3 medium sized pokemon for 700 dollars. The 7th most expensive lego set of all time. You could get the same 3 mega block pokemon for 120 and they look better. And any lego regular knows the price per piece thing hasn't mattered since 2015. They just add 2,500 1 stud pieces to meet the formula.

@15roundTKO my formula for seeing if a set is worth it is 10 cents per piece, which all these sets fall under. For being a licensed theme and having a lot of big pieces (both of which normally make the price bigger), this is a pretty good deal. Most people on here seem to love the sets but are turned away by the price, but that’s just normal Lego for a set that big. Like you said, it’s one of the most expensive, but it’s also one of the biggest. If you wanted something cheaper, it would have to be smaller

@NFrealinkling
You didn't even read my comment and you're straight up wrong. But if you buy that thing for 700 dollars I hope it's worth it. (It's not.) I was a big time Lego buyer (along with my kids) for 10 years, but this nonsense is out of control. Also cant help but reiterate the 10 cent a piece thing is soooo not true any longer. "Your formula" is something you latched onto from circa 2010. Which is not "your" formula. Smh. If you would in reality spend 700$ on that, look for a worthy charity instead.

The prices is what you get for not having child/slave labour involved.

@LastFootnote I mean, if you prefer sets for kids, then go ahead.

@15roundTKO I’m not buying any of these sets, as I don’t play Pokémon, but I agree with you that over $600 is a lot to spend on a Lego. But saying that it should’ve been cheaper is in reality asking for it to be smaller. As for the 10 cents per piece, I’m not saying that it’s MY formula, I heard it from other people years ago, it’s just what I use at a quick glance to see if I personally think a set is worth it. If you have a different method, more power to you. If you’re saying that it’s ’out of control’ in regard to how big the sets are…I mean just don’t buy them 🤷‍♂️

@Fiskern I have kids, so yeah I do prefer sets for kids. They’re something we can do together and get lots of mileage out of. These big display pieces are fun to build, but then they just take up space.

@LastFootnote as I said: Go ahead.

@Fiskern Go ahead and what?

Why are the badges just a gift and not a solitary selling item
I don't have a Lego collection but I would collect and display all the badge sets and I'm not spending like £600 just to get it
Oh well will just go back to my poke ball 3d printed wall
