The Lego Pokémon pre-order queue is open for five new builds, with Arcanine, Munchlax and Rayquaza listed to ship from Aug. 1 and two more sets due from Oct. 1, according to Lego product listings reported by Mashable.
The new batch puts familiar Pokémon faces and trainer-themed builds into brick form across a wide price range. The least expensive listing is the Munchlax set at $69.99, while the priciest is the Iconic Trainer Moments Poké Ball at $299.99.
Which Lego Pokémon sets are available to pre-order?
The pre-order lineup includes three Pokémon character builds arriving first, followed by two trainer-themed releases in October. Lego’s listings give the names, prices and shipping windows for each set.
- Lego Pokémon Arcanine: $109.99 at Lego, shipping from Aug. 1.
- Lego Pokémon Munchlax: $69.99 at Lego, shipping from Aug. 1.
- Lego Pokémon Rayquaza: $129.99 at Lego, shipping from Aug. 1.
- Lego Pokémon Iconic Trainer Moments Poké Ball: $299.99 at Lego, shipping from Oct. 1.
- Lego Pokémon Up-Scaled Red Minifigure: $79.99 at Lego, shipping from Oct. 1.
For buyers trying to pick a starter from the shelf, the release calendar is split cleanly. The Pokémon builds land first in August, while the Poké Ball and Red figure are set for the October wave.
What comes with the Lego Pokémon Arcanine set?
The Arcanine build is the most detailed set described in the product information reported by Mashable. It is a 1,190-piece model of the Pokémon, with movable parts including the tail, legs, feet, head and mouth.
Lego lists the Arcanine set for adults ages 18 and up. The source information ties that recommendation to the set listing, but does not give the same piece-count or age-rating details for the other four builds.
At $109.99, Arcanine sits between Munchlax and Rayquaza on price among the Aug. 1 releases. Rayquaza is listed higher at $129.99, while Munchlax is lower at $69.99.
What does the October Lego Pokémon wave include?
The October listings move beyond individual Pokémon models. Lego’s Iconic Trainer Moments Poké Ball is listed at $299.99, making it the most expensive set in the group, and the Up-Scaled Red Minifigure is listed at $79.99.
Red is the trainer character named in Lego’s product listing. The set is described as an up-scaled minifigure, while the Poké Ball listing carries the “Iconic Trainer Moments” name.
All five products are being offered as pre-orders through Lego, according to the listings. The key details for now are the two shipping windows: Aug. 1 for Arcanine, Munchlax and Rayquaza, then Oct. 1 for the Poké Ball build and Red minifigure.
