Pokemon fans will undoubtedly want to get their hands on these premium Poke Balls that are being produced by Bandai Namco. The metal Poke Balls called “Pokemon Poke Ball Collection ULTRA” will be releasing sometime next year. There are six different designs with a total of 10 Poke Balls. As you can see in the image below there’s the original Poke Ball, Great Ball, Ultra Ball, Master Ball, Luxury Ball, and finally the Beast Ball.
I’ve never found a commercially produced Poké Ball that looked just like the real thing. Either they don’t open, are plastic, have a flat bottom, bulky hinges, don’t have hinges at all and open up like a capsule (which could be cool if it were designed to look like the original gen 1 capsule-design balls), are a strange size, and/or they contain weird design features that the creator just thought looked cool.
These are probably the best I’ve seen, but I find it kind of strange that no one has really tried to make a perfect replica. I’m probably just too picky.
They look okay, but the buttons are weird. I agree, it’s weird that there’s never been a proper replica.
Depending on their price & quality, I might get the Master, Luxury, & Beast Ball. Hopefully they do open & have secure locks so I can use them to store change.
I’ll take an original, keep us posted.
I’m not even that big of a Pokémon fan but I’ve always wanted a properly done Poke ball.
