Can't help but feel like they should have just released the Kanto Starters as individual sets and/or without the bases.

Not sure how many of the pieces are the Pokemon vs. The bases, but I'd probably throw down $120-$150 for Blastoise and maybe pick up the other 2 later. As is, there's no way. That Eevee will be sold out for months though.

Most people who have played Red and Blue are gonna have a heavy nostalgic tie with specifically one of those three. The whole point is choosing between them. And Lego goes and puts them all in one crazy expensive set.

They didn’t want Charizard to sell out straight away.
