The first three Lego Pokémon sets launch in February and include a $650 diorama

After teasing its first collaboration with the Pokémon franchise last March but sharing very few details, Lego’s first Pokémon sets are now available for preorder through the company’s online store. The cheapest of the three is an articulated version of Eevee, but there’s also a budget-busting set featuring Charizard, Blastoise, and Venusaur that’s a whopping $649.99. Along with Lego’s first Smart Brick sets launching in March, it’s already shaping up to be an expensive year for Lego fans. Shipping for all three Pokémon sets is expected to start on February 27th.

It’s a 6,838-piece behemoth that includes articulated and poseable versions of the three pokémon plus an elaborate display stand with beach, jungle, and volcano biomes matching their types.

The 2,050-piece set is the second-most expensive in the new collection at $199.99 and includes a fun Easter egg. On its display stand are studs forming the number 25, which is Pikachu’s Pokédex number.

It doesn’t come with a display stand, but the pokémon has a movable head, limbs, and tail, allowing the 7.5-inch-tall figure to be posed.

The 312-piece Kanto Region Badge Collection includes all eight Kanto region badges in a buildable display case, but is only available as a free gift when you purchase the Venusaur, Charizard, and Blastoise set between February 27th and March 8th. There’s also a 233-piece Mini Pokémon Center that’s only available as a Lego Insiders reward (the company’s free loyalty program) when you redeem 2,600 points, according to Jay’s Brick Blog.
