In addition to the reveal of 72151 Eevee, 72152 Pikachu and Poké Ball and 72153 Venusaur, Charizard and Blastoise, two free ‘gift with purchase’ LEGO Pokémon sets have been announced.
Fans are excited to see the new detailed display models that will launch the new LEGO Pokémon theme – but in addition to those sizable builds, there are two small sets that will be available at LEGO.com. 40892 Kanto Region Badge Collection and 40911 Mini Pokémon Center are free if you qualify for them.
When you preorder or buy 72153 Venusaur, Charizard and Blastoise you will get 40892 Kanto Region Badge Collection for free. It’s a 312 piece set that builds a display box, plus the badges to go inside of it. All eight Pokémon Kanto region badges (Boulder, Cascade, Thunder, Rainbow, Soul, Marsh, Volcano and Earth) are included in the model, which measures 19cm x 10cm x 3cm.
