Minifigures There are three minifigures in the set, Red, Picnicker, and Professor Oak. Red is the main protagonist is the first Pokemon game and he’s wearing his red vest with the yellow backpack.

The cap that he wears is also molded onto his anime style hair. The Picnicker is a random charater that you encounter thoughout the games. He has on the green shirt with red tie and green shorts. His double-sided head shows him with smiles on both sides. Like with Red, his hair is molded on to his cap. Lastly we have Professor Oak who is also recognizable since the beginning.

Last Day for LEGO 2x Insiders Points – October 2026

Today is the last day to get your orders in for the LEGO 2x Insiders Points shopping event. You can still get double the points on all orders until 9pm PT. Who knows when LEGO will bring back a general 2x points event again. Perhaps it could be during next month’s Black Friday event but that’s usually for select sets. Unfortunately, the LEGO Restaurants of the World: Italy (40909) as well as its replacement, Mexico (40907), GWPs have both sold out for the US but there are still discounted sets to get more for your money. Also be sure to check out the Retiring Soon page to see if there’s anything you still want to pick up for they go away forever. Finally, it is also the last day for The Brick Fan readers to pick up the LEGO Ninjago Mini Ninja Combo Mech (30699) polybag with one of the many codes that you can use below.

Review: 42682 Nature Glamping Cabin

Review: 42682 Nature Glamping Cabin

There's a subset of sets in this Friends wave that have to do with forest or autumn. 42682 Nature Glamping Cabin has neither the words "forest" or "autumn" in the set name, but I've been lumping it in the same grouping. I was not impressed with the last Friends glamping effort ( 41392 Nature Glamping), so here's hoping this one is a bit better. Continue reading » © 2026 Brickset.com .

Review: 72165 Umbreon vs. Garchomp Championship Battle

A shark-dinosaur facing a fox-rabbit might seem like an unfair fight—but appearances can be deceptive! In this case, the smaller, more limber creature comes out on top simply by virtue of not falling apart during play. This pairing of a large final evolution (Garchomp, evolved from Gabite, evolved from Gible…) with an Eeveelution mirrors the arrangement we already saw with Charizard vs. Jolteon. This time, it is accompanied by an impressive trophy: now you can become the very best. Please note, this set does not contain a SMART Brick. Continue reading » © 2026 Brickset.com .
