Lego Pokemon finally revealed, but what have they done to Pikachu

Lego Pikachu set on a pebbly beach in front of white cliffs.

The first Lego Pokemon sets have finally been shown off, and while most are garnering the "ooohs" and "ahhhs" you'd expect, responses for Pikachu are a bit more… well, mixed.

There are three Lego Pokemon sets heading our way on February 27, 2026: the aforementioned Pikachu, Eevee, and a triple-pack containing Charizard, Blastoise, and Venasaur. The toy-maker says that the latter is one of its "largest ever display sets," and I can believe it. At almost 7,000 pieces, this is a hefty chunk of plastic. (It's certainly challenging the best Lego sets in terms of spectacle, anyway.) However, everyone's favorite electric mouse is dividing opinion. While some seem taken with the little guy, others aren't as positively charged as the franchise's mascot.
