If you haven't heard, Pokémon is celebrating its 30th anniversary in 2026, and after all these years, it's kind of amazing how many of the original 151 are still among the franchise's most beloved Pokémon. The likes of Charizard and Pikachu obviously get most of the attention, while Eevee and its original three Eeveelutions, Vaporeon, Jolteon, and Flareon, are similarly iconic. Mew and Mewtwo continue to hold a special place in Pokémon history, and even somewhat obscure Mon like Arcanine remain Gen 1 standouts. However, the original Ghost-type trio, Gastly, Haunter, and Gengar, arguably rank among the most popular and unique Pokémon lines from the Kanto region. From Gastly's eerie appearance to Gengar's mischievous grin, these three have kept things spooky for three decades, and their popularity has hardly waned over all these years. Now, with Pokémon celebrating its milestone anniversary, the iconic trio is getting an absolutely stunning new redesign. Pokémon's iconic Ghost-type evolution line is officially getting a stunning new collectible courtesy of Sideshow, bringing Gastly, Haunter, and Gengar together in an impressive diorama. The statue was first unveiled during PokémonXP 2026 in San Francisco this past August, where Sideshow showcased several upcoming collectibles celebrating the franchise's 30th anniversary. At the time, fans could register for updates on the Gengar Diorama, but pricing and release details had yet to be confirmed. Now, the Gengar Diorama is officially available for pre-order through Sideshow, with a list price of $645. That's certainly a premium price for a Pokémon collectible, although the statue is much larger and more elaborate than your typical figurine. Constructed from polystone, it measures approximately 14.5 inches tall, 9.2 inches wide, and 9.4 inches deep, making it an impressive centerpiece for any Pokémon collection. You can take a look below: Sideshow currently says the statue will ship between November 2027 and February 2028, although the product listing notes that fulfillment could extend all the way into May 2028. Pre-orders are limited to two per customer if you have deep pockets, and Sideshow offers interest-free payment plans if you don't. Shipping and applicable taxes are not included in that list price, so collectors should keep that in mind before ordering. The new Gengar Diorama is also far from the only Pokémon collectible available through Sideshow. The company has an extensive lineup of premium statues and figures, including a life-size Eevee, a life-size Pikachu, and an adorable Snorlax Diorama. There's also an impressive Charizard statue, while a new Mewtwo collectible statue was unveiled alongside this Gengar line redesign at PokémonXP earlier this year as well. For anyone looking to build a vibrant collection of their favorite Pokémon and fill their homes with lifelike dioramas and Gen 1 statues, Sideshow has plenty of options, although these premium statues aren't exactly budget-friendly. Still, there's something fitting about seeing Gastly, Haunter, and Gengar get such an elaborate tribute during Pokémon's 30th anniversary. After three decades and hundreds of new Pokémon introduced over the years, the original Ghost-type trio remains every bit as beloved as it was in the 90s, and this gorgeous new collectible is a perfect way to celebrate that legacy.
