The LEGO Pokémon Pikachu and Poké Ball set recreates one of the franchise's most iconic scenes with a 2,050-piece build. The brick-built Pikachu is shown in a dynamic pose, leaping from a Poké Ball mounted on a black lightning rod-shaped base.

Fans can pose the build in a battle stance or seated position, with the set featuring easter eggs including a "25" on the base, signifying Pikachu's Pokédex number.

The 587-piece LEGO Pokémon Eevee set brings the cherished character to life with movable tail, head and limbs, allowing builders to pose the fan-favourite at rest or ready for action.

The set includes compatibility with the Build Together app, enabling fans to construct alongside friends and family.

Julia Goldin, chief product & marketing officer of the LEGO Group, said bringing the world of Pokémon to life in LEGO bricks was both an exciting opportunity and a great responsibility.

"This partnership opens up a whole new range of possibilities for Trainers and builders alike, and we can't wait for fans to experience these new LEGO Pokémon sets," she said.

Siddharth Muthyala, design director on LEGO Pokémon, described it as an incredible honour to help bring these Pokémon to life in brick form for the first time, noting the team approached the design with immense care and passion.

From January (12) to February (27), fans can participate in a digital scavenger hunt across LEGO and Pokémon platforms, with the grand prize including a trip to experience the 2026 Pokémon World Championships in San Francisco and all three new sets.

The sets will be available in LEGO stores, Pokémon Centers, and selected retailers worldwide from February 27, 2026.

Matilda Baxter hits back at critics over her "Barbie waist" surgery results

Highlights:

  • Matilda Baxter, reported to have close to a million Instagram followers, has responded publicly to what she describes as cruel comments about her appearance.
  • Baxter underwent a rib-contouring procedure, marketed online as a "Barbie waist" surgery, in Bali earlier this year.
  • The procedure isn't currently available in Australia, and medical professionals have raised concerns about both the health risks involved and the body standard it promotes.

Matilda Baxter has had enough of reading comments about her body. The influencer, known to her large Instagram following as Tilds Search, has addressed what she describes as cruel criticism of her appearance since undergoing a rib-contouring procedure in Bali earlier this year. Reports on her exact age vary, with some outlets putting her at 21 and others at 23.

What actually happened?

Baxter travelled to Bali as part of a sponsored trip alongside other influencers to undergo a procedure marketed as a "Barbie waist" surgery, which reshapes the lower floating ribs to create a dramatically narrower waist without removing bone. When she first shared the results, she posted a video of herself in lingerie, calling the transformation "insane" and telling followers it wasn't edited. Since then, she has continued to post updates on her changed appearance, including a comparison between how she looked in 2023 and how she looks now, defending her decision each time criticism has followed.
