Re-Ment has launched a new line of stained glass Pokémon figures as part of a blind box collection. Their release date, February 27, 2021, coincides with the 25th anniversary of Game Freak’s Pokémon series.
There are six different figures to collect and each box will cost 990 yen, which is currently the equivalent of $9.29. The Pokémon available to collect are Pikachu, Mew, Lugia, Umbreon, Gardevoir, and Ho-Oh. Each figure stands in front of a transparent stained-glass background that is embedded in a frame that features the Pokémon’s name written across the top. They are expected to release in a variety of stores across Japan but there is no word yet regarding a worldwide release.
Re-Ment is known for a range of other Pokémon collectibles, as well. It released the blind box Pocket Botanical line of toys in June of 2020, and blind box Pokémon Terrariums for Pokémon Sword and Pokémon Shield. Before that, the company had produced terrariums for other games in the Pokémon franchise. These releases were also originally limited to Japan.
The Pokémon Stained Glass collection is immediately available in Japan.
A remake of Pokémon Diamond and Pokémon Pearl for the Nintendo Switch were announced as part of a Pokémon Presents event yesterday, on February 26, 2021.
