Sideshow officially unveils incredible Gengar evolution line diorama, a collectible rather than a redesign

A tribute to the Ghost trio

Gastly, Haunter and Gengar are among the original Kanto Pokémon that have maintained a strong following. Their eerie designs and Gengar’s mischievous grin have helped keep the Ghost-type line recognizable across three decades.

For Pokémon’s 30th anniversary in 2026, Sideshow has brought all three together in a detailed Gengar Diorama. The collectible offers an elaborate tribute to the original trio.

Pre-orders and statue details

The diorama was first shown at PokémonXP 2026 in San Francisco in August. Sideshow displayed it among collectibles planned for the anniversary, but pricing and release timing were not confirmed then.

Pre-orders are now available through Sideshow, with a listed price of $645. Made from polystone, the statue measures approximately 14.5 inches tall, 9.2 inches wide and 9.4 inches deep.

Sideshow estimates shipping between November 2027 and February 2028, while the product listing says fulfillment may extend to May 2028. Orders are limited to two per customer. Interest-free payment plans are offered, but shipping and applicable taxes are extra.

Part of a larger collection

Sideshow’s Pokémon offerings also include life-size Eevee and Pikachu figures, a Snorlax diorama and a Charizard statue. A Mewtwo collectible statue was unveiled alongside the Gengar line redesign at PokémonXP earlier this year.

The Gengar diorama is a premium-priced option for collectors. Its anniversary timing recognizes the continuing appeal of Gastly, Haunter and Gengar, despite the many Pokémon introduced since the trio’s debut.
