\t\t\t<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n \n\tDesigned as premium display builds rather than traditional playsets, the initial rollout includes three headline releases featuring five fan-favorite Pok\u00e9mon: Pikachu<\/a>, Eevee<\/a>, Venusaur, Charizard and Blastoise. <\/a>The sets invite fans to \u201cbuild their Trainer journey, brick by brick,\u201d translating Pok\u00e9mon\u2019s instantly recognizable designs into detailed, poseable LEGO models aimed at collectors and longtime fans as much as younger builders.<\/p>\n \n\t\u201cBringing the world of Pok\u00e9mon to life in LEGO bricks is both an exciting opportunity and a great responsibility,\u201d Julia Goldin, LEGO Group\u2019s chief product and marketing officer, said in a statement. \u201cWe\u2019ve worked to combine our worlds in a way that truly celebrates the creativity, adventure, and wonder that Pok\u00e9mon represents. This partnership opens up a whole new range of possibilities for Trainers and builders alike, and we can\u2019t wait for fans to experience these new Lego Pok\u00e9mon sets.\u201d<\/p>\n \n\tAnchoring the lineup is Pok\u00e9mon Pikachu and Pok\u00e9 Ball<\/a>, a 2,050-piece build that recreates one of the franchise\u2019s most iconic images: Pikachu leaping into action from an opened Pok\u00e9 Ball. The dynamic display includes a black lightning-bolt base, crackling energy effects and a hidden \u201c25\u201d Easter egg referencing Pikachu\u2019s Pok\u00e9dex number. Builders can configure Pikachu in either a mid-battle stance or a seated pose alongside a closed Pok\u00e9 Ball.<\/p>\n \n\tThe most ambitious release is Pok\u00e9mon Venusaur, Charizard and Blastoise, <\/a>a sprawling 6,838-piece display set that brings the fully evolved Kanto starters together for the first time in Lego form. Each Pok\u00e9mon features unique articulation and sits atop a shared action base inspired by their respective biomes, with additional hidden details embedded throughout the build. LEGO bills the set as one of its largest character display models to date, positioning it as release for adult fans and collectors.<\/p>\n \n\tRounding out the launch is Pok\u00e9mon Eevee<\/a>, a 587-piece set that features a poseable head, tail and limbs, allowing Eevee to be displayed at rest or in motion. <\/p>\n![\"Pokemon](\"https:\/\/variety.com\/wp-content\/themes\/pmc-variety-2020\/assets\/public\/lazyload-fallback.gif\")
