Hoping to snag Lego Pokémon’s massive $650 set? You may be out of luck. The Lego Group opened preorders for its first three Lego Pokémon sets on Monday at 12 a.m. ET — and the most expensive one has already sold out.
Consisting of three fan-favorite Pokémon, Venusaur, Charizard and Blastoise, the nearly 7,000-piece build is the largest and priciest of the drop, clocking in at $649.99 before tax. The still-available sets are more affordable in comparison, with the Pikachu and Poké Ball set retailing for $199.99, and the Eevee set retailing for $59.99, respectively.
While the Pikachu and Poké Ball and Eevee sets will ship on Feb. 27, preorders for the highly coveted Venusaur, Charizard and Blastoise set will resume on Feb. 27. Fans desperate to get their hands on the most expensive set sooner can look to eBay, where some scalpers are selling their “confirmed” preorders — and free gift with purchase — for more than $1,000.
Yahoo is breaking down what else there is to know about the Lego Pokémon collaboration, from detailing the specifications of each set to rounding up fan reactions to the drop’s sky-rocketing demand.
What are the three Lego Pokémon sets?Eevee

The Eevee figure is the least expensive of the Lego Pokémon drop and features movable components, including its ears, so the beloved Pokémon “can be posed into authentic positions.” While completing the build, fans will also come across a “hidden easter egg” that celebrates Eevee’s “many evolutions.”
Dimensions: 7.5 x 6 x 8.5 inches
Pikachu and Poké Ball

In the Pikachu and Poké Ball set, fans can build Pikachu’s famously zigzagged tail in both male and female versions. Like Eevie, the Pikachu and Poké Ball set is movable and can be displayed in a “battle stance” or “resting pose.”
Dimensions: 13.5 x 10.5 x 15.5 inches
Venusaur, Charizard and Blastoise

The largest and most expensive set in the Lego Pokémon drop, Venusaur, Charizard and Blastoise — three notable Grass-, Fire- and Water-type Pokémon — each feature moving pieces. Venusaur has articulated vines and feet; Blastoise has a movable head, arms and water cannons; and Charizard’s wings, legs, arms and head can also be adjusted. Each Pokémon can be mounted onto a single stand or can be posed to stand alone.
Dimensions: 20 x 21 x 14 inches
Are any additional Lego Pokémon sets available?
Two additional Lego Pokémon sets are also up for grabs while supplies last.
The first is a 233-piece Mini Pokémon Center, which can be redeemed for 2,500 Lego Insiders points. The second and perhaps more sought-after set is the 312-piece Kanto Region Badge Collection, which is free with purchases of the Venusaur, Charizard and Blastoise.
Given the Lego Group’s multi-year partnership with the Pokémon Company, which was initially announced last March, fans expect that even more Pokémon sets will become available.
The number of possible Lego Pokémon sets seems limitless, considering that there are 1,025 distinct Pokémon species in the National Pokédex, the catalog of all Pokémon encountered by a trainer, as of early 2026.
Lego Pokémon receives mixed reactions from fans
Pokémon fans are sharing their reactions to the newly unveiled collection on social media. The fandom appears to be split on whether these sets and their retail prices are worth it.
“This looks horrendous. The face looks awful. I think the fingers look really bad. The tail looks OK… The Poké Ball is fine, but I don’t need this giant base. Just give me a $60 Pikachu,” a TikTok user named Josh said of the Pikachu and Poké Ball set. While Josh is interested in purchasing the considerably cheaper Eevie set, he’s dissatisfied with how overpriced the Venusaur, Charizard and Blastoise set is.
“I would buy all three of these separately, but so much of the value is going into the base alone. There’s probably more pieces in the base than probably two of these combined. A hundred bucks each, I’m buying all three,” he added.
Another TikTok user named Shane, however, begs to differ. In a video posted to the video-sharing platform, Shane argues that the Lego Pokémon sets aren’t overpriced — but acknowledges the absence of smaller, more affordable sets.
“They’re about where I’d expect Lego to price these sets,” Shane said. “However, I am disappointed that we don’t have smaller sets and we don’t have minifigures, but I’d expect to see them soon.”
Many fans, however, agree that buying these sets from eBay scalpers isn’t worth the risk.
“It won’t be worth thousands of dollars,” an X user wrote, while another added, “Pokemon Lego is cool … these prices are not. Don’t pay scalper prices do not buy from resellers let this stuff sit on shelves buy on clearance.”
