Mewtwo in 2026: Plush, TCG Singles, and the November Preorder
By Dexhaul Team · August 22, 2026
Mewtwo is one of the few Pokémon where you genuinely need to know which market you are shopping in before you spend a dollar.
The current catalogue spans three separate product timelines that barely overlap. There is physical merchandise: plush, Funko Pops, and model kits. There are TCG singles, ranging from a $24 modern holofoil to a $575 Secret Rare from 2017.
And there is a November 2026 preorder for the 30th Anniversary figure collection, which is its own thing entirely. Conflating these three markets is the most common Mewtwo buying mistake. This guide separates them.
The November Preorder: 30th Celebration Figure Collection
The most time-sensitive Mewtwo product right now is not a card or a plush.
The Pokemon TCG 30th Celebration Figure Collection for Mewtwo is currently listed as a preorder with a November 2026 ship window. Pokémon's 30th Anniversary celebration has been rolling out across 2026, and Mewtwo is one of the confirmed figures in this sub-series.
MHDEALSPLUS lists it at $89.95 USD. Galactic Toys and Collectibles has the same item at $94.95. Lazarus Games lists it at $129.95, reflecting individual retailer markup on a product with a finite production window.
The confirmed promotional card contents have not been published as of writing. What is known from the broader 30th Celebration line is that these collections pair a commemorative figure with exclusive promotional cards not available in standard packs. Whether the card list is finalized or not, the figure itself is the primary reason collectors are preordering.
If you plan to own one, the practical decision is preorder timing and retailer choice. The lowest listed price in the current catalogue is $89.95.
After the release window closes, the secondary market price typically moves upward on commemorative anniversary products. Preordering does not guarantee you get the lowest possible price, but it gives you a known price from a retailer whose listing is live now.
TCG Singles: How to Read the $24 to $575 Price Range
Mewtwo has been printed in the Pokémon TCG continuously since the original Base Set, which means the singles catalogue spans more than 25 years of sets, mechanics, and illustration styles. Three variables drive price: the card's era, its rarity code, and its illustration.
Era matters because sets with shorter print runs are harder to find in high grades today. Rarity code matters because the modern Special Art Rare tier (introduced in 2022 Japanese sets) commands significantly higher prices than standard holofoils in the same set. Illustration matters because some Mewtwo cards carry full-art treatments that collectors treat as standalone pieces regardless of the card's in-game power.
The accessible modern tier
The Pokemon Card 151 holofoil (#183/165, SV2a) at $24.24 is the lowest-price recognizable modern Mewtwo in the catalogue. Card 151 revisited the original 151 Pokémon in the Scarlet and Violet era, and Mewtwo's inclusion carries real weight for collectors who want a current-era card with deep nostalgia backing.
The Special Art Rare tier
VSTAR Universe (S12a) launched in Japan in December 2022 as a premium compilation set introducing the Special Art Rare classification. Mewtwo VSTAR (#221/172) is a Special Art Rare in that set, currently listed at $147 to $175 depending on the seller.
The English equivalent appeared in Crown Zenith's Galarian Gallery subset in January 2023 and lists at $277.99. The price gap between the Japanese and English versions reflects print run size, not any difference in the card itself. Crown Zenith had a smaller print allocation in the Galarian Gallery subset, which is why the English version runs higher.
The high end
The Mewtwo GX Secret Rare from Shining Legends (#78/73) sits at $575. Shining Legends was a 2017 special set with a short print window and a distinctive Shining Pokémon mechanic.
The Secret Rare is a Rainbow Rare variant, and its price reflects the combination of era scarcity and a full-art treatment that has aged unusually well visually. If you are not specifically targeting this card and its era, there is nothing at the lower price tiers you are missing by skipping it.
The Current-Set Card: SV10 Team Rocket's Mewtwo ex
Team Rocket's Mewtwo ex (#130/098) from The Glory of Team Rocket (SV10) is the most recent Mewtwo card in the catalogue and the only one with current competitive format relevance.
At $50.75, this card sits at a price point that reflects both its position as an over-numbered Secret Rare (#130/098) and its Team Rocket branding, which has historical collector resonance. SV10 reintroduced Team Rocket into the Scarlet and Violet era, and this Mewtwo carries the iconic team's insignia alongside the new ex mechanic. For collectors tracking the full Mewtwo singles timeline, SV10 is the 2026 entry point.
Physical Merchandise: Plush, Pops, and Model Kits
Outside TCG, Mewtwo merchandise falls into three clear tiers based on what you are buying and why.
Plush
The Pokemon ALL STAR COLLECTION Plush Mewtwo from Sanei Boeki (listed at $41.48) is the most consistently available Mewtwo plush in the current independent market. The ALL STAR COLLECTION line is a Japanese-origin production known for using textured fabrics that distinguish it from lower-cost alternatives.
Mewtwo's distinctive silhouette, with its tail, forehead extension, and narrow build, is genuinely difficult to produce well in plush form. The Sanei version is one of the cleaner executions currently available outside the Pokémon Center.
Funko Pop
Funko Pop #581 (Mewtwo) is available from $14.99 to $23.00 depending on the seller and whether a protector case is included. The Eternal Forge lists the standard version at $14.99.
XO Steele Collectibles lists the same figure with a protector at $15.99. These are identical figures; the protector is the only difference between the two listings.
Model kits
The Pokemon Model Kit Mewtwo is a Bandai snap-fit plastic kit at $18. No glue or paint is required.
The finished model is smaller than the plush and intended for collectors who want the build process as part of the experience. At $18, it is the lowest-cost three-dimensional Mewtwo product in the catalogue with an assembly component, sitting clearly apart from both the plush and Pop categories in what it offers.
How to Choose Your Starting Point
The three markets do not recommend themselves to the same buyer.
If the November figure collection is your goal, preorder now and choose the retailer whose listed price you are comfortable with. If you are building a TCG singles collection, identify which era and rarity tier your budget supports before you start: $24 for a modern holofoil, $147 for a Special Art Rare Japanese single, or $277 for the English equivalent. If you want physical merchandise without the TCG angle, the ALL STAR COLLECTION plush at $41.48 is the most defensible choice at its price point.
The one thing these markets have in common is that Mewtwo's status as a Psychic-type Legendary from the first generation means every product in the catalogue has decades of cultural context behind it. That context is baked into prices across all three tiers.
