Everyone's freaking out at the rumored $650 Lego Pokemon set, but here's why I wouldn't panic just yet

According to rumors that have emerged from the long grass like a wild Pikachu, there's going to be a $650 Lego Pokemon set. Seeing as this is more expensive than a Switch 2 and a couple of games, some fans are understandably... well, let's say perturbed. Everyone's wracking their brains trying to work out what it could be as well, because apparently it'll come with over 6,000 pieces.

Here's the thing, though; I'm not even sure we need to worry that much. To be precise, I have my doubts it's actually going to happen. I appreciate that I may end up looking very silly in a few months if this rumored Lego Pokemon set ends up being real, and that's OK. I'm not saying the rumor definitely isn't true. There's a good chance it could be. However, something about this doesn't sit right with me.
