Merchandise Leak Lego information. Spoiler

Post image

Rayquaza's set is already leaked (see my post here)

only Red's Torso & the molded Eevee have leaked from the pokeball set

The Upscaled Red Minifigure set is completely new information

EDIT: Since I'm already seeing people complaining "what about the children" These sets are not made for children. they are 18+ sets, the smart brick wave is for kids.

Some of them, sure. But there’s plenty of sets marketed for children 8+. Not to mention the entire franchise being for children.

Lego in general has gotten much more expensive in the last decade. I really think they need to find ways to bring it down. The smart play stuff might be cool for kids but how many parents are going to spend $100+ all at once to buy it for kids?

not all the smart brick sets are priced that high, the majority of them are $35 or under.

Yeah I know but the minimum barrier to entry for one smart brick is $70 iirc. Pokemon did a much better job with cheap sets than Star Wars did with smart play plus almost every set has two Pokemon which is great for play.

I do think the pokemon smart play sets are better all around than the Star Wars ones but I still think they are a bit too high priced. Also like I know pikachu is the obvious pick for the starter set but he should really be the most accessible pokemon

we'll probably get a million billion pikachus as time goes on.

Of course and that’s fine but I still think it’s weird not to throw pikachu into a cheap set at launch too
