Revealed on 12 January 2026, the debut wave turns five fan favourites—Pikachu, Eevee, Venusaur, Charizard and Blastoise—into premium 18+ display builds.
LEGO Pokémon Sets: What’s Launching First
This isn’t a rumour. LEGO calls it the first-ever collection of LEGO Pokémon sets, with three headline products leading the launch.
The crossover follows the multi-year LEGO–Pokémon partnership announced on 18 March 2025, with products planned “from 2026.”
One official note worth tracking: LEGO says the sets will be sold via LEGO channels and “selected retailers around the world” from launch day.
Full Breakdown: Set List, Price, Pieces And Set Numbers
All three main sets are listed as 18+. Pre-orders began 12 January 2026, with availability from 27 February 2026.

- Pieces: 587
- Price: €59.99 / $59.99 / £54.99
- Release: 27 Feb 2026 | Pre-order: 12 Jan 2026
LEGO says Eevee has a movable tail, head and limbs, and supports its Build Together app feature.
2) LEGO Pokémon Pikachu And Poké Ball (Set 72152)
- Pieces: 2,050
- Price: €199.99 / $199.99 / £179.99
- Release: 27 Feb 2026 | Pre-order: 12 Jan 2026
LEGO highlights a “25” easter egg on the base (Pikachu’s Pokédex number) and a poseable build staged as Pikachu jumps out of the Poké Ball.
3) LEGO Pokémon Venusaur, Charizard And Blastoise (Set 72153)
- Pieces: 6,838
- Price: €649.99 / $649.99 / £579.99
- Release: 27 Feb 2026 | Pre-order: 12 Jan 2026
LEGO describes it as one of its largest-ever display sets, with each Pokémon articulated and displayable solo or together on a shared base featuring hidden details.
Bonuses And Collector Extras: Free Kanto Badges + Pokémon Center Reward
Gift With Purchase: Kanto Region Badge Collection (Set 40892)
LEGO confirms a Kanto Region Badge Collection (40892) as a gift with purchase when buying set 72153, available 27 February–3 March 2026, while stocks last (LEGO.com + LEGO branded stores).
The badge case is a 312-piece build, and LEGO lists its size at 3 cm × 19 cm × 10 cm. Brick Fanatics’ early look matches the same dimensions and “eight Kanto badges” format.
LEGO Insiders Reward: Mini Pokémon Center (2,500 points)
LEGO says Insiders members can redeem 2,500 points for a Mini Pokémon Center reward from 27 February 2026 (select markets, while stocks last).
Trainer Challenge Scavenger Hunt: How It Works
LEGO also announced a “Find & Catch Them All” scavenger hunt running 12 January–27 February 2026, with clues across LEGO and Pokémon digital content.
The grand prize includes experiencing Pokémon World Championships 2026 in San Francisco (including Championship Sunday at Chase Center) plus all three new LEGO Pokémon sets.
Local Impact Section: What India & J&K Fans Should Watch
LEGO’s official announcement doesn’t list India-specific pricing or retail partners yet, but it does confirm availability via LEGO’s own channels and selected retailers worldwide from 27 February 2026.
What this means for J&K buyers (practical, not hype):
- If you want the GWP Kanto badges, the window is short: 27 Feb–3 Mar 2026, and it’s “while stocks last”.
- LEGO Shop pages show purchase limits on some regions (often limit 1), which can affect availability during the first rush.
- If you’re an Insiders member, check that the Mini Pokémon Center reward is offered in your market before planning redemptions.
Official quotes (non-local, but primary-source): LEGO’s Julia Goldin called bringing Pokémon to LEGO bricks an “exciting opportunity” and a “great responsibility.”
Key Highlights / Summary Box
- First-ever LEGO Pokémon sets launch 27 February 2026; pre-orders started 12 January 2026.
- Three 18+ sets lead the drop: Eevee (72151), Pikachu & Poké Ball (72152), Kanto Trio (72153).
- Early extras include GWP Kanto badges (27 Feb–3 Mar) and a 2,500-point Insiders Mini Pokémon Center reward.
Conclusion / Verdict
LEGO and Pokémon are starting big: three premium display builds, a time-limited launch-week bonus, and a scavenger hunt designed for collectors.
If you’re buying from India or J&K, the safest approach is to track official launch listings and move early if you want the badge GWP. Stay tuned for more updates from KittoNews.
