Nendoroid’s Pokémon Trainer Red Champion Set Is Adorable
It’s Pokémon’s 20th Anniversary, and The Pokémon Company is pulling out all the stops. Each month features a special download in X, Y, Alpha Sapphire, and Omega Ruby; Pokémon Go has captivated millions of gamers; and Sun and Moon are on the way this fall.
We’ve also had the chance to look back on the franchise’s origins. Pokémon Red, Blue, and Yellow are available for download on the 3DS eShop. To celebrate the anniversary, Nendoroid has released a special collector’s set featuring the original Trainer Red and evolved forms of all three starters.
The package comes with two different faces for the Trainer, a backpack accessory, a posing stand, a great ball, an ultra ball, four different arms (including one designed to safely hold the Pokéballs), and elemental accessories for Charizard, Blastoise, and Venusaur.
You can see some of the images we took below. The Pokémon Trainer Red Champion set is available exclusively on the Pokémon Center website for $99.99.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
