Such a cool set with amazing details!
on August 30, 2026

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Lego Pokémon Cubone and Genger's spooky showdown is such an awesome set! My kids absolutely love this one, especially because Cubone and Ganger are such cool characters. They were excited about this set before we even started building, and the finished result definitely did not disappoint. There is so much cool detail packed into the set. The spooky theme is really fun, the characters look fantastic, and there are so many little details to notice as you're putting everything together. It makes the building experience just as much fun as actually playing with it afterward. Like the previous Lego sets we've built, this was a really enjoyable project to do together as a family. The instructions were easy to follow, the build kept the kids interested, and seeing Cubone and Ganger come together was probably their favorite part. It has that perfect mix of being fun to build while also giving the kids something really cool to play with and display when they're finished. Overall, this is another fantastic Lego Pokémon set. The characters, spooky details, and overall design make it stand out, and it was a huge hit with my kids. Definitely a fun set for Pokémon fans and we would absolutely recommend!

Awesome evolution of the traditional Lego experience!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Fantastic evolution of the traditional Lego experience. Still the same fun of building Legos but now with a much more engaging playthrough experience once they are built. Now my kids enjoy building Legos just as much as I do.

Do not buy

The Lego set doesn't come with the even one smart brick that you need to use how it's advertised. You can't even buy smart bricks individually. Don't buy just going to disappoint.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
Response from LEGOBy Katie, LEGO® Customer Service, August 24, 2026
We're sorry for any disappointment about what's included with your new LEGO SMART Play Compatible set. While this set include SMART Tags, you will need a SMART Brick to help bring them to life. SMART Bricks are found in LEGO SMART Play All-in-One sets and come with everything you need to start playing: The SMART Brick, SMART Tags and the SMART Charger.

Fun but wish all came with smart bricks

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product in exchange for my honest review. This was so much fun to build! These are a couple of my son and my favorite characters. The instructions were so easy to ready and easy to assemble. I love that the pieces came in eco friendly bags instead of plastics. I only wish that all sets came with smart bricks or could at least buy smart bricks separately. I found out after looking that you can’t. Only in certain sets. Disappointing cuz you can’t have a brick for each character since they all have that capability. Still super fun build. Gengar was so much bigger than expected but we loved it! Wish Cubone was bigger too haha. These will definitely get a lot of play time out of them!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This set is so cool- my son said that ‘all the kids will be obsessed’z. The spooky Pokémon characters take this interactive build toy up a level to new heights.

These are awesome!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our family LOVES gengar so this was a huge hit! We don’t have the smart blocks so it didn’t make the characters move but oh well. We still made them battle cubone and of course gengar won! lol it was easy to put together they packaged each character separately. It’s pretty simple and easy instructions step by step

Great for Gengar and Cubone fans!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This has been a great set to put together! The size is just right and not too bulky so it can fit on a shelf for a great display! The Gengar is also very fun to play with as the tongue wobbles around. I’d give it a 10/10
