I’m about to splurge on more Pokémon MEGA sets – these Prime Day deals are onix-pected gems

You’re never too old for Pokémon sets! (At least that’s what I’ve been telling myself for the past hour). Getting distracted during the hunt for top-class Amazon Prime Day deals is something I try really hard to avoid, but then I noticed that Amazon has an abundance of Pokémon ~~Lego~~ MEGA Bloks sets on sale as part of its big deals event, and I crumbled. If you’re looking to save big on gaming-related products, check out our Nintendo Switch Prime Day deals guide plus my roundup of the best Prime Day PS5 game deals.

There’s no Shaymin (get it) owning Lego sets as an adult, but I should clarify that these Pokémon sets aren’t officially Lego-branded, but instead are classed as MEGA Bloks which is a different brand of construction toys owned by Mattel (the brand that brought us Barbie).

I already own the Snorlax Mattel MEGA Bloks Pokémon set and I’m obsessed with it. Since completing the build, I’ve been dying to expand my collection on the gaming shelf with some new additions, and I have my eye on this gorgeous mechanized Gyarados set which is now $70 off at Amazon. For all the best Pokémon MEGA deals see below.
