I was extremely excited to see Lego and Pokémon collaborating and even more excited to see that one of my favorites, little Eevee, would be one of the first to be released. I thoroughly enjoyed putting the set together and watching how Lego bricks slowly became the cute and cuddly creature in the photo.
Step number 183 in the build process was particularly noteworthy for both Lego and Pokémon's attention to detail. There are 8 small pieces that are each a different color which are not visible in the final product, but the 8 small pieces are different colors: one for each evolution of Eevee.
For those like me who enjoy Lego and also started your original journey with Pokémon on the early Game Boy games, I also recommend checking out the Nintendo Game Boy Lego build, as it is also a fun build and pairs nicely for display.
My son finally built the LEGO Pokémon Eevee set and… wow. This little fluffball might be one of the cutest builds ever. 🦊⚡
The build itself is super relaxing and surprisingly clever. The way the designers shaped Eevee’s big ears and fluffy collar with small pieces is honestly impressive—it actually captures that “adorable but ready to battle” Pokémon vibe perfectly.
The poseable head and tail are a great touch too. Once you’re done, it feels less like a static model and more like a tiny Eevee companion watching over my sons bedroom.
Build time was short enough to be chill but long enough to feel satisfying, and the instructions were super easy to follow. We especially loved the subtle nod to the Eeveelutions. Whether you’re a Pokémon fan, a LEGO collector, or just someone who likes cute things on their shelf, this set is an instant win.
⭐ Final verdict: 10/10, Now excuse us while we wait for them to release all the Eeveelutions…Gotta Build ‘Em All!
This, to me, is the strongest set of the three sets released on February 27th, 2026. It's affordable and looks the most like the Pokémon that it's based on. However, I have a 3 main gripes.
1. Building it was pretty fun, but there are some holes on the inside that I feel like could have been built a better way.
2.The model is pretty flimsy, and can only be stably positioned in a few angles. I understand that this is a display set and not a playset (hence the 18+), but that doesn't excuse a model that only looks good on a shelf.
3.This is more of an overall problem, but the set has no models to go with it in this collection. He looks really lonely without other in-scale pokemon!
(Also, I need to mention: In the photo, I added a few extra pieces to give colors onto the ears. This step is not included in the base manual.)
