It looks like one of LEGO’s huge — and hugely anticipated — Pokémon sets will be one of the company’s most expensive ever, retailing for around $650.
According to LegoLeak on Reddit, the upcoming Pokémon range’s biggest set — comprising a chunky 6,838 pieces — will sell for $649.99, whilst the considerably smaller 2,050-piece set will retail for $199.99. The smallest kit of 587 pieces will be the cheapest at around $59.99. All are reportedly rated only suitable for those aged 18 and upwards.
If the leak is correct, the sets will go on sale from March 1, 2026, although Insiders will get access from February 27.
LEGO announced it was entering a “new multi-year partnership” with Pokémon for the first time back in March. Not many details were given at the time, aside from the LEGO Pikachu tail and this line: “Electrify your imagination in 2026 and get ready to build something we’ve never built with LEGO bricks before!”
“Since the debut of the Pokémon franchise, fans have dreamed of becoming Pokémon Trainers, and now they can take that experience even further… one brick at a time,” the blurb teased. “This new partnership will bring the world of Pokémon to life in entirely new ways, allowing fans to build beloved Pokémon in LEGO brick form.”
LEGO and Nintendo have had a fruitful relationship for a number of years now, too. In honor of the 33rd anniversary of the original Mario Kart, IGN has collated all of the LEGO sets based on Mario Kart that are available right now. You’re welcome. Oh, and have you seen LEGO’s homage to 1980s gaming, the Arcade Machine?
