LEGO New Releases for Pokémon Day 2026

February 27th 2026 marked 30 years since the release of the original Pokémon Red and Pokémon Green videogames in Japan (sorry for the reminder, 90s kids...).

To celebrate, a trio of Pokémon LEGO new releases hit the shops, featuring five favourite pocket monsters from the series:

• LEGO Pokémon Eevee (72151)
• LEGO Pokémon Pikachu and Poké Ball (72152)
• LEGO Pokémon Venusaur, Charizard and Blastoise (72153)

Find out more about the new LEGO Pokémon sets below, as well as our custom display case for LEGO Pokémon 72153, which is coming soon.

LEGO Pokémon Eevee (72151)

Price: $59.99

Release Date: February 27th 2026 (Available Now)

Ages: 18+

Pieces: 587

LEGO Insiders Points: 390

Size: Over 19 cm tall

LEGO Eevee (72151) is an adorable start to the line-up of new LEGO Pokémon sets. Brick-built with 587 pieces, it perfectly captures Eevee's personality, perky ears and bushy tail.

Several elements can be posed, including those ears, tail, face, legs and feet, and there are easter eggs throughout the build that hint at Eevee's eight different possible evolutions (including Flareon, Jolteon and Vaporeon).

LEGO Eevee is a cute companion and an excellent start to a LEGO Pokémon display - and as one of the collectible characters in the original Pokémon Red, it's a perfect way to celebrate the 30th anniversary.

LEGO Pokémon Pikachu and Poké Ball (72152)

Price: $199.99

Release Date: February 27th 2026 (Available Now)

Ages: 18+

Pieces: 2,050

LEGO Insiders Points: 1,300

Size: 35 x 26 x 39 cm (H x W x D)

LEGO Pokémon Pikachu (72152) is a surprisingly versatile build with several different customisation options. You can assemble Pikachu in a sitting position with a closed Poké Ball, or create a more dynamic LEGO Pokémon display with Pikachu launching from an open Poké Ball.

A choice of tail tips also allows you to finish your build with a male 'lightning tip' Pikachu or a female 'heart tip' tail form. If you're lucky enough to own two LEGO Pokémon 72152 sets, you could build both!

Like LEGO Eevee, your LEGO Pikachu can be posed with articulated limbs, feet and ears - and at 39 cm long, the finished build is practically life-sized.

LEGO Pokémon Venusaur, Charizard and Blastoise (72153)

Price: $649.99

Release Date: February 27th 2026 (Available Now)

Ages: 18+

Pieces: 6,838

LEGO Insiders Points: 4,225

Size: Over 23 cm (Venusaur), 20 cm (Charizard) and 18 cm (Blastoise) tall

This is the big one - and it really is big, with three different Pokémon figures measuring 18-23 cm tall and standing on a brick-built base that represents the Jungle, Volcano and Beach biomes from the Kanto Region.

With nearly 7,000 pieces, LEGO Pokémon Venusaur, Charizard and Blastoise (72153) is an intricate build, measuring 50 x 54 cm (H x W) when displayed on the included brick-built stand.

You can decide whether to showcase your set as a single dynamic battle scene, or to stand each Pokémon separately on its individual biome as part of an ever-growing LEGO Pokédex display.

Like a true Pokémon Trainer, you'll need patience and commitment to get through this build - so once it's done, make sure you show off LEGO Pokémon 72153 at its best in our made-to-measure display case!

How to display it

We have our acrylic display cases for LEGO 72153 Pokémon Venusaur, Charizard, and Blastoise; LEGO 72151 Eevee; and LEGO 72152 Pikachu and Poké Ball, to keep your new LEGO Pokémon display safe from dust and misplaced pieces. Like all of our custom LEGO display cases, they are made from high-quality acrylic and supplied flat-packed, with quick and easy assembly using our special fittings and screws. The end result are bespoke LEGO display cases that protects your highly collectible LEGO Pokémon displays without distracting from the dynamic poses of the Pokémon. 

Each Pokémon LEGO display case includes a carefully selected background, chosen by our team of passionate Pokémon fans and collectors.

For Venusaur, Charizard, and Blastoise, the backgrounds depict natural wild environments. We designed the bases to seamlessly blend into these scenes without detracting from the LEGO models themselves.

For Pikachu, we matched the action-packed moment as the LEGO bursts out of the Poké Ball. The background conveys Pikachu charging up an electric-type move, ready for battle.

For Eevee, we felt it was essential to honour its many evolutions. Eevee stands in a beautiful pastel flower field, surrounded by flowers that represent each of its Eeveelutions: Jolteon, Vaporeon, Flareon, Umbreon, Espeon, Leafeon, Glaceon, and Sylveon.

How many of the new LEGO Pokémon sets will you add to your display to celebrate the 30th anniversary?
