The Pokémon TFG is a collectible miniatures game similar to HeroClix. It is has been designed by Pokemon USA and is based on Satoshi Tajiri's Pokémon media franchise.
It was released in Australia in August 2006 and will come out in Europe and South-East Asia in 2006, USA and Japan in 2007. There is speculation that it will have an Organized Play system similar to the Pokémon TCG, but this has yet to be confirmed by any of the companies distributing the game. The first set released is called Next Quest. The game seems to be played in a luck/strategy format that resembles the boardgame Risk, with most actions being controlled by a spin mechanism. The figures are larger than most other figure games, they are highly detailed and are meant to introduce this type of games to younger players while holding the interest for older players, as Pokémon TCG did for Trading Card Games.
On the upcoming Pokemon 10th anniversary mall tour in the UK, there will be introductions to the new Figure set and set matches.

[edit] Next Quest
The Next Quest set is made up of 42 figures and 8 cards with 4 levels of rarity (indicated by a circle, diamond, black star, or white star symbol on the bases).
The white star means it is super rare. The black star means it is normal rare. The diamond means it is uncommon. The circle means it is common.
In the "Next Quest" sets there are two available starter sets that players can start off with; "Flamethrower" and "Riptide". Both of which start you off with 4 figures.
