Save yourself £580 with this LEGO Pokémon GWP alternate build

Keen to pick up the LEGO Pokémon GWP, 40892 Kanto Region Badge Collection, but less keen on the price threshold? Here's how to sidestep it.

LEGO Pokémon 40892 Kanto Region Badge Collection has already proved to be the hottest promotional product of the LEGO Group's year, and we're expecting it to be more of the same during the theme's official launch tomorrow. However, there's a steep entry point to acquire it, with it coming exclusively with purchases of 72153 Venusaur, Charizard and Blastoise at its hefty price of £579.99 / $649.99 / €649.99.

On the other hand, you can save yourself the cash with a custom build inspired by the exclusive gift-with-purchase. LEGO YouTuber Wylie Bricks has shared how he put together a near-perfect recreation of 40892 Kanto Region Badge Collection, missing only the exclusive stickers that are included in the set.

The LEGO YouTuber has shared links to buy the parts for his custom build via Pick a Brick and BrickLink in the description of his video, as well as details on how to build the display stand too. Even if you pick up the official GWP, the buildable stand could prove handy for displaying the original model too.

Hear from Wylie Bricks on what went into the design of the alternate set in his YouTube video below.
