One thousand pieces out of 40,000 is the right amount of puzzle for a Pokémon fan who already has the cards. That's the Pokemon Collectors Eevee & Park, £14.39, a slice of a giant Pokémon puzzle without the huge commitment of the whole thing.
Cards are for collecting and swapping. A fan who already has them has done the hunting, so what's left is things to build and things to look at. Here's how the five break down.
Which ones are for building?
The Eevee puzzle is 70 x 50 cm when it's finished, and the page says it's for adults as well as children of 12 and over. The whole 40,000-piece puzzle has 40 times as many pieces, so this is a very reasonable bite. The picture is printed on linen-textured paper over extra-thick card, so there's no glare on it.
If a flat picture isn't enough, the MegaBloks Pokemon Lapras Set is £49.49 for 527 pieces. It features a Motion Brick, and turning the crank moves Lapras's head left and right. The page calls it mechanised and highly detailed. That's 527 pieces for one gesture, which seems a fair rate.
The finished Lapras stands 7 inches tall, and the pieces combine with other MEGA Pokémon sets. The page gives no age, so read the box before you hand it over.
Then there's the Pokemon Storage Box 3D Puzzle, £17.99. It's 216 plastic pieces and 7 accessories that click together without glue into a chest, for fans aged 8 and over. The page calls it storage, and a chest you built yourself is a fair thing to keep treasure in. It doesn't give a size, though, so don't promise it the whole card collection.
What goes on the shelf?
The Pop! Vinyl Pokemon Umbreon is £14.39 and stands about 3.75 inches (9.5 cm) tall. The page says it's vinyl and suits a desk or a display case, which is where an Umbreon would want to be. It's the same price as the Eevee puzzle, so the only question is whether your Pokémon lies flat or stands up. The page describes it as one more for a growing collection of Funko Pop figures.
One of these is a mystery
The Pokemon Battle Feature Figure Charizard is £11.99. The title promises a Charizard with a battle feature, and we'd love to tell you what the feature does. The page says only that Pokemon made it, and gives no age. It's the cheapest of the five, so it suits a fan who likes a surprise.
The Umbreon and the Charizard together come to £26.38, which is still less than the Lapras.
