Today, Nintendo and The Pokémon Company unveiled the upcoming near field communication toys for Pokémon Scramble U. Phew, finally!
The set includes Bulbasaur, Pikachu, Torchic, Piplup, Lucario, Victini and one special (or secret) Pokémon. According to The Pokémon Company, this is the “first set”. The official release indicates that there will be more NFC Pocket Monster figures in the future.
As mentioned before, each figure is priced at ¥200 ($2) and will be sold through a capsule toy machine vending machine. That means you won’t know what you’re getting! And that means people will probably end up spending a lot to complete their set.
There’s also a nifty carrying case for kids to cart around their figures in. The suggested retail price is ¥780 ($8).
