Five New LEGO Pokémon Sets on Brick-Tracker
On the night of July 8, five new LEGO Pokémon sets appeared on Brick-Tracker. And I have to say, honestly: After the Pikachu set—which was a real disappointment to me personally—LEGO is finally showing here that it can create some really great Pokémon sets.
The set includes Arkani, Rayquaza, Mampfaxo, a large Poké Ball featuring Trainer Moments, and a buildable Red figure. Arkani is definitely my favorite. But the Poké Ball might also turn out to be more exciting in the long run than it seems at first glance.
LEGO Pokémon 72160 Arkani
1,190 pieces, released in 2026, expected to reach EOL in 2028, MSRP of 99.99 euros, and best price so far of 74.99 euros.
To me, Arkani is the best set in this wave. Its shape is instantly recognizable, the colors are just right, and the model finally looks like a Pokémon you’d really want to display on your shelf. Movable parts like the tail also make the set come to life right away.
Even now, the best price is around a 25 percent discount. If Arkani ever becomes available at about a 40 percent discount, that would be a no-brainer for me.

LEGO Pokémon 72168 Rayquaza
1,083 pieces, released in 2026, expected to reach EOL in 2028, MSRP of 129.99 euros, and best price so far of 99.99 euros.
Rayquaza is much more unique. This set is on the pricier side and even includes a Zinnia Trainer Minifigure. I like that because it means LEGO isn’t just building individual Pokémon, but is slowly starting to create actual scenes and collectible moments.
We’ll have to wait and see if Rayquaza looks a little too flat in real life. But in the pictures, it already looks much more exciting than Pikachu.

LEGO Pokémon 72150 Mampfaxo
757 pieces, released in 2026, expected to reach EOL in 2028, MSRP of 69.99 euros, and best price so far of 51.99 euros.
Mampfaxo isn’t exactly a standout for me, but it’s a nice set. It seems well-made and should be especially interesting once Amazon and other sellers start offering their typical discounts of 35 to 40 percent.
I don’t need it right away for the MSRP. But it can work really well as a compact Pokémon travel set.

LEGO Pokémon 72154 Poké Ball with Trainer Moments
2,386 pieces, release year 2026, expected EOL in 2028, and a MSRP of 259.99 euros.
The Poké Ball is expensive, no question. But I find the concept really exciting. It reminds me a lot of the LEGO Super Mario 64 Question Mark Block 71395: an iconic display piece on the outside, with little scenes to discover on the inside.
To be honest, I underestimated the Mario Block back then. It wasn’t popular everywhere for a long time, was discounted, and still performed quite well after EOL. That’s exactly why I wouldn’t be too quick to write off the Poké Ball.
The new small figures of Pikachu and Eevee, as well as the three Trainer Minifigures, stand out in particular here. It is precisely these kinds of exclusive elements that could prove decisive later on.

LEGO Pokémon 40868 Red
930 pieces, released in 2026, expected to reach EOL in 2028, and a MSRP of 79.99 euros.
Personally, I think Red is the weakest set in this wave. Anyone who likes large, buildable Minifigures will surely enjoy it. To me, though, the cap and head look a little too helmet-like, and the Poké Ball in his hand looks more angular than round.

My Conclusion
Arkani is definitely my favorite. Rayquaza looks exciting, Mampfaxo could be a good value set, and the Poké Ball might turn out to be much more interesting in the long run—thanks to its figures and interior scenes—than its high MSRP would suggest.
Red, on the other hand, isn’t my personal favorite. Overall, though, this wave is significantly better than the first Pikachu. LEGO Pokémon finally feels more like LEGO and more like Pokémon here.
