LEGO and Pokémon continue to expand their highly anticipated collaboration with the LEGO Pokémon Up-Scaled Red Minifigure (40868), a large-scale display model celebrating one of the franchise's most iconic Trainers. Launching on October 1, 2026, this 930-piece set transforms Red into a poseable brick-built figure designed for both play and display.
Standing over 27 cm (10 inches) tall, the finished model captures Red's classic appearance from the early Pokémon games. From his signature red cap and vest to his blue trousers and backpack, the build stays faithful to the character that introduced millions of players to the Pokémon world.
A Display Piece with Play Features
Unlike a standard LEGO minifigure, the Up-Scaled Red Minifigure is built at a much larger scale, allowing for impressive detail while retaining the familiar proportions of a LEGO character.
The model includes multiple points of articulation, with movable arms, legs, hands and head, making it easy to create different display poses. Red's iconic Poké Ball is also included. It can be placed in either hand, giving the finished build a dynamic appearance whether displayed on a shelf or desk.
With its combination of articulation and display appeal, the set is designed to satisfy both younger builders and long-time Pokémon fans looking for a standout collectable.
