Scalpers have wasted no time turning the free Lego Pokémon Kanto Region Badge Collection into a pricey collector’s item. Although this set is not available for individual purchase and is only offered as a pre-order bonus, resellers are already listing it online for up to $300. The collection’s limited availability has created a buzz among fans eager to get their hands on something unique linked to the Lego Pokémon collaboration. It’s a clear example of how quickly demand drives up secondary market prices, even for promotional items that aren’t officially sold on their own. For those hoping to secure the badges, pre-ordering now seems the only option before prices inevitably climb.
