Rumour: LEGO's Next Big Pokémon Set Might Have Been Revealed

Would totally buy that since I can’t get the big plushie.

Arcanine is a good one. I'm surprised they haven't dropped a LEGO Porygon set yet. With its blocky shape, it makes perfect sense to me.

Why are they all 18+ sets, kids like Pokemon too

Arcanine is one of those Pokémon who was far more popular in the early days simply because there were less creatures around to choose from.

I would like if... How to put it... B list Pokémon got sets instead of all the usual suspects.

@acNewUpdates : One of the pieces is for Arcanine's naughty bits, hence the age restriction.

It looks better than the pikachu set.

@acNewUpdates There's apparently regular playsets aimed at kids coming later this year.

Pokemon sets really are the infinite money glitch, there are hundreds upon hundreds of viable sets they could release

Yo, Arcanine looks sick! 😎
versus
Yo, Pikachu looks sick 😢

@Tyranexx

Not Lego, but point taken.

@koopababble That looks pretty close to what I was imagining, though on a smaller scale. I'd take it!

I hope they don't limit themselves to Gen 1.

Also, I think Necrozma's fairly geometric design would lend itself well to Lego.

If you buy some spare parts, you can make this Growlithe to go alongside it: https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-210238/Agilinzzz/growlithe-pokemon/

The new leaks are fun, but unfortunately that new smart brick gimmick really jacks up the price.

Jigglypuff in concert is my dream come true! Also the Cubone set with Gengar! Awesome stuff!

ohhhhh no not more smart brick slop

@dragwhite how come it’s slop? Genuinely asking, it’s not something I know much about at all

@aaalexander
the sets themselves are incredibly overpriced for what they're worth, the "smart brick" functions last for 45 minutes on a 2 hour charge and the battery depletes super quickly even when in use,

builds have to be incredibly chunky in order to accomodate the brick within them and the noises produced by the brick itself aren't exactly accurate either

@dragwhite oh right, wow! It’s a neat idea but the execution doesn’t sound good at all. 45 minutes use for 2 hour charge is nuts!

Why freaking smart play, no one likes those sets

That Arcanine looks sick! Arcanine's one of my favorite Pokémon, so if the price is similar to the Eevee set, I'll be picking this one up for sure!
EDIT: Okay, so it apparently has twice as many pieces as the Eevee set, so it'll probably cost upwards of $110... That's a tougher sell, but I may still save up for it and buy it eventually.
