Pokemon: Everyone Wants the New Diecast Poke Ball

poke ball in hand The Wand Company recently announced the first-ever diecast Poke Ball Replica with motion sensors, and this looks dope. 

Pokemon might be most well known for their games and shows, but every once and a while an awesome collector item comes out too. This time around the item is a diecast Poke Ball with a light-up button that senses when you are close to it. It’s coming soon from The Wand Company who usually makes props, so this is definitely in their ballpark (pun definitely intended). It’s only on pre-order right now, with the full release slated for February 2021.

With that, let’s check out the Poke Ball!

Pokemon: New Diecast Poke Ball

As you can see it’s a relatively simple item, but the quality is sure to shine through.

This means as your hand gets closer the light will light up depending on how close your hand is to grab it! Plus, as you can see in the picture/video you can pick it up out of the display and it will continue to illuminate.

We can assume it’s all battery-operated inside the display and the display wirelessly charges the ball, however, all in all, it’s super slick! The design is clean and simple. An easy grab for any Pokemon fan wanting a quality replica with a neat feature to boot!

There are also plans for the company to make and release a Great Ball, Ultra Ball, and Premiere Ball sometime during 2021!
