The 30th Celebration Figure Collections launch on Friday, November 6, 2026, at $29.99 MSRP each. Every box packs a foil promo card, an oversize card, a sculpted figure and 5 booster packs from the 30th Celebration expansion. Two separate boxes, one preorder trap, and two chase cards that are not inside: here is the full picture.

What is inside the 30th Celebration Figure Collection?
Each box contains 1 foil promo card featuring Mew or Mewtwo, 1 oversize card with the same artwork, 1 sculpted figure of that Pokémon and 5 booster packs from the 30th Celebration expansion. That is the lineup confirmed by the pokemon.com product page, and the icons printed on the boxes say exactly the same thing.
Both promos are already visible on the box art. The Mew card is a 60 HP promo floating through a sunlit clearing, stamped with the Pikachu 30th anniversary medallion. The Mewtwo card is a 130 HP promo mid psychic storm, purple lightning and levitating rocks included. The oversize card blows the same artwork up to shelf format, the kind of piece that never sees a binder. These are commemorative medallion cards, not the Mew ex and Mewtwo ex everyone is talking about: more on that below, because the difference is worth real money.

Mew or Mewtwo: what actually changes between the two boxes?
Same contents, two opposite moods. The Mew box is daytime: teal and green packaging, a pale pink figure sitting in a tuft of grass dotted with white flowers, lavender spikes behind it. The Mewtwo box is nighttime: deep purple packaging and a battle-ready figure standing on a base of violet crystals, tail coiled around it.
That duel is no accident, it is the through line of the whole 30th anniversary lineup, from October's Day and Night Mini Tins to November's Ultra-Premium Collections. The pokemon.com product page sums up the choice: "greet a new day with Mew or take on the night with Mewtwo". On our side of the counter, the duel glows: the Mew crystal LED Poké Ball and the Mewtwo crystal LED Poké Ball carry both rivals laser-etched in 3D inside the crystal, at €29.99 a lamp. Same number as the box's dollar price, funny how that lines up.

Can you pick your figure, or is it random?
Depends on the store, and that is this product's number one trap. In the United States, Best Buy and GameStop sell a single "styles may vary" listing: you pay $29.99, the store ships Mew or Mewtwo at random, one box per order. Yet pokemon.com presents two distinct boxes, and hobby stores list them separately.
Most European retailers name the reference outright, and French stores already list the Mewtwo box as its own preorder for November 6. So one reflex before paying: check that the product page names the Pokémon you want. If it says "Mew or Mewtwo" with no further detail, you are flipping a coin on your figure, better to know that before the unboxing.

How much do they cost, and what is a fair preorder price?
MSRP is $29.99 per box, per the launch price list compiled by Bill's Archive and echoed across the hobby press. In France, stores that already show a price put the box around €39.99, while others still list it unpriced as of August 20, 2026: the final grid is not set.
Scalping is not waiting, though. One US retailer offered the Mew plus Mewtwo pair at $149.99 in preorder, two and a half times the combined $59.98 MSRP, and still sold out within weeks. My shopkeeper's advice, the same I gave for September's Sylveon ex boxes: never pay that premium on a mass-produced product headed for big-box shelves. If a preorder climbs far past the $30 mark per box, walk away, these will be in stores for the holidays.

Are the Mew ex and Mewtwo ex chase cards inside?
No, and that nuance separates disappointed buyers from happy ones. The expansion's two stars, Mew ex and Mewtwo ex in the new Futuristic rarity, illustrated by YOSHIROTTEN, the artist behind the 30th anniversary key visual, are secret cards numbered 158/128 and 157/128. They come out of booster packs, luck included. The Figure Collection guarantees its 60 HP or 130 HP promo and its oversize card, not the Futuristic rares.
Both cards are worth a look: Mew ex at 160 HP copies attacks from your bench through its ability, while Mewtwo ex at 230 HP peppers every opposing Pokémon ex for 50 damage before swinging for 230. The Pokémon Company's trailer shows them both, and our article on the 30th anniversary card leak covers the rest of the set, 128 numbered cards plus secrets, every single one foil, basic Energy included.

The Ditto Premium Collection, the other box of the day
November 6, 2026 also brings the Ditto Premium Collection at $39.99 MSRP: 8 booster packs, a Ditto promo card in illustration rare style and a colorful acrylic card display. It sits right between the $29.99 figures and the $179.99 Ultra-Premium Collections.
Its promo is already out and it is a good one: Ditto, 70 HP, numbered MEP 106, illustrated by Ounishi, with three badly disguised Ditto crashing a group of Cherubi. The card's single attack transforms Ditto into any Pokémon from your deck on a successful coin flip. Very on brand for thirty years of failed transformations.

Figure, Ditto or Ultra-Premium: which November 6 box should you pick?
It comes down to budget and what you want on the shelf. The table lines up the final wave's four boxes at US MSRP:
| November 6 box | US MSRP | Boosters | Guaranteed in the box |
|---|---|---|---|
| Figure Collection – Mew | $29.99 | 5 | Mew 60 HP promo, oversize card, figure |
| Figure Collection – Mewtwo | $29.99 | 5 | Mewtwo 130 HP promo, oversize card, figure |
| Ditto Premium Collection | $39.99 | 8 | MEP 106 illustration rare promo, acrylic display |
| Ultra-Premium Day or Night | $179.99 | 29 + 1 Classic | 2 MEP promos, playmat, deck box, dice |
For a display piece, the figure wins: it is the only product in the entire 30th anniversary lineup that is not made of paper. For boosters per dollar, the Ditto Premium Collection beats the figures. And for the whole package, we already put the Day and Night Ultra-Premium Collections under the microscope: thirty boosters, but $179.99. One telling detail about this duo's pull: in our own blog stats, "mewtwo" is the query that surfaces us most often on Bing. The Mewtwo box will sell out first, as usual.
Frequently asked questions about the 30th Celebration Figure Collections
When do the Mew and Mewtwo Figure Collections come out?
Friday, November 6, 2026, at hobby shops and mass retail, alongside the Ditto Premium Collection and the Ultra-Premium Collections. It is the final wave of the 30th anniversary lineup that opened on September 16.
How big is the figure?
The Pokémon Company has not published dimensions. On the visuals, it is a display piece with a sculpted base, flowering grass for Mew, purple crystals for Mewtwo, in the usual footprint of the TCG's figure collections. We will update this page as soon as exact measurements circulate.
Are the box promos the Mew ex and Mewtwo ex cards?
No. The boxes guarantee a Mew 60 HP or Mewtwo 130 HP promo with the 30th anniversary medallion, plus the same artwork as an oversize card. The Futuristic rare Mew ex and Mewtwo ex, numbered 158/128 and 157/128, are secret cards pulled from boosters.
Do the 5 boosters guarantee 30th anniversary Pikachu cards?
Yes, mechanically: every 30th Celebration booster contains one foil Pikachu out of the 30 artworks commissioned from 30 artists. A Figure Collection therefore delivers five in one sitting, duplicates possible. Every card in the set is foil, basic Energy included.
Do the Figure Collections come out in other languages?
Yes. The 30th anniversary lineup launches in English, French, German, Spanish and more on the same day worldwide, and European stores already list both references as November 6 preorders. Stores showing a price put each box around €39.99.
Is there a Mew lamp to go with the figure?
That is our aisle: the Mew LED Poké Ball on a wooden stand carries the Mythical Pokémon 3D-etched inside a crystal sphere, at €29.99. Figure by day, lamp by night: the day-and-night duel, bedside edition.
To light up the rest of the team next to the boxes, our light-up Poké Ball collection lines up 29 Pokémon laser-etched in crystal, Mew and Mewtwo front and center, at €29.99 a lamp.
