Pokemon Announces New Eevee Funko Collection

The Pokemon Company International today announced a new line of collectible figures, in collaboration with Funko, based on the ever-popular Pokemon Eevee called An Afternoon with Eevee & Friends. This follows on the popular A Day with Pikachu figure collection from last year, and will feature Eevee and its various evolutions. New figures in the collection will release through October 2020, with the first set to launch next week.

More specifically, the first figure in the collection -- featuring a pair of Eevee in a flowery field -- will launch on February 18th between 9 and 9:30am PT via the Pokemon Center. If the A Day with Pikachu collection is any benchmark, each figure will likely cost $14.99, and will sell out rather quickly while also sometimes appearing at retailers like GameStop seemingly at random.

You can check out the first figure in the An Afternoon with Eevee & Friends collection, in all its glory, below:
