Best for Experts
Bottom Line

Due to the miniscule size of its pieces, and detail of each Pokémon, constructing a Nanoblock set will take time, even for veteran LEGO builders.

Pros

160 piece building set. Will take a while to fully assemble. Small, yet detailed pixelated Pokémon model. Many other Pokémon available, including Pichu, Snorlax, and Totodile.

Cons

Some may not appreciate the extra-tiny pieces.

Action figures are one of the most popular Pokemon toys, with multiple versions of every popular Pokemon character available. Action figure sets are also available to make collecting even easier and are great for kids who like to set up different Pokemon scenes when they’re playing. For younger Pokemon fans, plush characters are a great choice. Novelty Pokemon items like coin banks, backpacks, and bath bombs are also available.
