Pokémon Epic Battle Figures 2026: Every 12-Inch Jazwares Release
By Dexhaul Team · October 7, 2026 · 6 min read
Jazwares' Epic Battle Figures are the largest standard Pokémon action figures in the mainstream toy market: 12 inches tall, fully articulated, and shipped with a character-specific display stand.
The line is made by Jazwares, one of the primary holders of the Pokémon toy license in North America, and covers a broad spread of the Pokédex: starter final forms, Legendary picks, and rarer mid-tier species.
Six figures are confirmed in the current catalogue. Observed prices range from $24.99 for Skeledirge to $89.99 for Lugia, as of October 7, 2026.

Where to Start
Three figures cover the main entry points in the line, based on budget and character preference.
Budget pick: Skeledirge
Skeledirge is currently the most affordable entry point at $24.99 USD observed. It ships with a flat Display Stand and gives a full look at the line's articulation range on a mid-size Pokémon.
If you want to test whether Epic Battle Figures work for your display shelf before buying a more expensive piece, Skeledirge is the right starting point. It is also the only Gen 9 starter currently in the line.
Mid-range: Golurk
Golurk runs $30.99 to $36.00 from independent sellers, sitting in the middle of the range. The figure is listed as poseable rather than stand-mounted: its joints are designed to hold a position without a base underneath it.
This makes Golurk a better choice for dynamic battle stances. It is Wave 9 of the series, labeled "Golemastoc" in some European listings (that is the French name for the same Pokémon).
Collector centrepiece: Lugia
Lugia is the standout piece in the line for one specific reason: it is the only Epic Battle Figure that ships with a Flight Stand rather than a flat display base. The stand raises Lugia in its wings-spread hover position, not resting feet-down on a shelf.
That single detail separates it from every other figure in the series. Observed prices range from $54.32 to $89.99, with the spread driven by import markup across different sellers rather than any difference in the figure itself.
The Gyarados Select Evolution Pack
Gyarados also ships as part of the Select Evolution Pack: the only multi-figure release in the Epic Battle series.
The pack bundles the standard 12-inch Gyarados with a 2-inch Magikarp figure, both with an Exclusive Finish treatment. The Magikarp is not sold on its own in the Epic Battle line.
Observed prices for the pack run from $43.08 to $55.84, which puts it close to the $50.00 standalone Gyarados price. The pack is the better pick if you want the evolution display, and roughly equivalent to the standalone if you only want Gyarados.
Greninja Availability
Greninja is a confirmed entry in the Epic Battle line but currently ships mainly through European sellers, with pricing in EUR. Buyers outside Europe should factor currency conversion into the price before ordering.
Tyrantrum follows a similar pattern: it is in the line and in stock, but the current catalogue stock comes from European sellers at around $48.00 equivalent. Confirmed stock from North American sellers does exist for Gyarados, Skeledirge, Lugia, and Golurk. For a broader look at what figure formats DexHaul covers, see the Pokémon figures guide.
Telling an Authentic Figure from a Fake
Authentic Jazwares Epic Battle Figures carry the Jazwares name and The Pokémon Company International licensing text printed on the packaging. The SKU on official boxes starts with the prefix "PKW," which is the Jazwares Pokémon product identifier used across their licensed range.
Three checks before buying from an unfamiliar listing:
Check the box hologram
The Pokémon brand hologram sticker on genuine packaging shifts color slightly when you tilt or touch it. A flat printed sticker that does not shift is a warning sign.
Test the articulation joints
Authentic figures have tight, consistent joints that hold a posed position without flopping. Unlicensed copies typically have joints that are too loose to hold any pose. If a listing photo shows the figure in a position that clearly requires joint tension, ask the seller to confirm the joints hold.
Confirm the stand type
Lugia ships with a Flight Stand (it displays the figure airborne, feet off the base). If a Lugia listing shows it on a flat generic base, the stand has either been replaced or the figure is not the authentic release. Skeledirge and Gyarados should come with flat Display Stands; Golurk and Greninja are poseable without any stand.
Display and Care
At 12 inches, these figures need real shelf depth. A standard action figure shelf with 12 to 14 inches of clearance handles them comfortably. Keep them away from direct sunlight: UV exposure fades the painted plastic on articulated joints over time, especially on colored accent areas.
Use a soft brush to dust articulation points rather than wiping them, since wiping can stress painted joint surfaces. The Flight Stand included with Lugia is designed specifically for that figure and is not interchangeable with the Display Stands from other releases in the line.
See the Pokémon statues and resin figures guide if you are looking for display-only collector pieces rather than poseable action figures.
Epic Battle Figures as Q4 Gifts
These make strong picks for the Q4 gifting window. Skeledirge at $24.99 lands comfortably under $30. Lugia's flight-display pose is the kind of visual impact that works well as a centrepiece gift.
The Select Evolution Pack (Magikarp plus Gyarados) is the best option for someone who wants a matched set in a single box. For a broader roundup of Pokémon gift ideas across all budgets, see the Pokémon holiday gift guide.
Frequently Asked Questions
How tall are Jazwares Epic Battle Figures?
Each figure stands 12 inches (approximately 30 cm) tall, making them the largest standard figures in the mainstream Jazwares Pokémon line.
What is the difference between a Display Stand and a Flight Stand?
A Display Stand is a flat base the figure clips onto in a standing position. Lugia's Flight Stand elevates the figure in a hover pose with its wings spread. Lugia is the only current Epic Battle Figure in the catalogue shipped with a Flight Stand.
Is the Select Evolution Pack the same Gyarados as the standalone figure?
Yes. The pack contains the same 12-inch Gyarados plus a 2-inch Magikarp with an Exclusive Finish. The Magikarp is not available separately in the Epic Battle line.
Are Epic Battle Figures compatible with other Pokémon figure lines?
They share no interchangeable parts with Moncolle, Scale World, or Battle Feature figures. Scale is also different: Epic Battle Figures are 12 inches, while Moncolle runs 1.5 to 5 cm. They can be displayed alongside each other but are not designed to interact.
Can I find these at retail stores?
Epic Battle Figures originally released through major US toy retailers. Current catalogue stock sits mainly with independent online sellers; check the figures collection on DexHaul for today's availability.
