Ivysaur: the bud is about to bloom and he knows it. TOMY’s Monster Collection Master Ball is fully functional. Open it, set the lever inside, and the spring catch snaps the ball shut when it lands on your Pokmon, just like a real catch. The attached return string pulls it back to your hand after the throw, so it never ends up under the desk.

The 2″ Ivysaur figure sits inside the ball, so you can run the full catch-release-catch loop as many times as you want. He’s the stage where Bulbasaur gets serious, and a Master Ball is the appropriate level of serious.

What’s in the box

• Working Master Ball (2″ x 2″, purple and white with the signature “M”)
• Ivysaur figure, Monster Collection scale (2″)
• TOMY retail box, #MB-6 in the Master Ball series

Good to know

• Plastic. Built to be thrown, not just displayed.
• Ball and figure both work with the rest of the TOMY Monster Collection line.
