Hey guys! First post on the forums!
I've been designed video games and board games for a while now and one of my passions has always been building sets. I dip into all the major brands, but I've played Pokemon since I got Pokemon blue when it came out (1998!) Seeing Mega Construx pick up the line and do it justice really has me and my family excited for what the future holds!
Outside of requests for Pokemon (because Ideally I'd like to see them all at some point) I've listed some ideas I had for the line and how it can be expanded and released. I posted this on Reddit and was pretty much met with crickets and some down votes.
Using the new Pokemon sets I want to develop a series of short stories using stop animation that I'll release on my youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X_mrBytIEOI
Finally we are also working on a tactical battle board game (think Final Fantasy Tactics) using Pokemon, that while I cannot do anything official with it, we will be more than happy to release the rule set for when it is done!
Anyway, let me know your thoughts, I'd love to have a discussion!
* Releases focus on a certain Gen (Starting with Gen 1) and have releases from other gens during that annual release window. Each annual release window focuses primarily on a gen with other gens sprinkled in. This is sort of the way it looks to be now with a heavy focus on Gen 1 pokemon.
* Terrain packs. Would love see fleshed terrain packs that come with a Pokemon, maybe 2 but have a comprehensive set of terrain pieces based on common biomes found in the pokemon games.
* Architecture set pieces. Gyms, Pokemon centers, other iconic buildings. Gyms could come with a leader figure and appropriate Pokemon. These would be expensive big set pieces.
* Trainer figures. The pokemon are fairly close to scale, having some scale sized trainer builds would be great. You could have all the iconics and they could come with spare pieces to customize and create your own trainers.
* Evolution combo packs. A great way to revisit Pokemon that have already been released, such as starters since these would include the entire evolutionary line. Could include new combat accessories or different expressions.
* Combat accesory pieces. Sets that just come with a ton of pieces used to represent the many moves Pokemon use. Very cool and useful to set up combat scenes.
