S.H.Figuarts

S.H.Figuarts is in a dense release period, with preorders and lotteries running through October 2026 for figures shipping between November 2026 and June 2027. The line spans Ultraman, Kamen Rider, One Piece, Dragon Ball, Naruto, My Hero Academia, Demon Slayer, Jujutsu Kaisen, Frieren, Berserk, Gundam SEED Destiny, Marvel Gamerverse, and a Tokyo Yakult Swallows mascot.

Synthesized from 30 Yomimono stories · updated 19h ago

S.H.Figuarts releases in this window are organized around arc and scene pairings rather than standalone characters. The One Piece Marineford Summit War line runs through Shanks, Sir Crocodile, Sakazuki, and Edward Newgate, each carrying bonus face parts for the separately sold Luffy figure, and the Whitebeard Marineford figure is priced at 28,600 yen with orders closing once the prepared quantity is reached. My Hero Academia gets a childhood Midoriya and Bakugo set plus All For One, whose bonus head parts fit the Bakugo -The Beginning- figure. Naruto figures similarly include bonus faces for other Naruto releases, and the Hashirama Senju -Reanimation- figure returned through a second Premium Bandai lottery.

Kamen Rider Kabuto's 20th anniversary drives a cluster of Shinkocchou Seihou releases: Dark Kabuto, the KickHopper and PunchHopper two-figure set, and Ryuki's Kamen Rider Scissors with a Volcancer option set that opened a second lottery round. Ultraman's 60th anniversary produces Gillis, sculpted by Yuji Sakai, and Ultraman Hikari, while Imitation Ultraman and Fake Ultraman are tied to TAMASHII NATIONS LIVE ACTION FIGURE EXPO 2026 and episode 18 of the original series.

Across the line, release dates cluster in early 2027: January for Shanks, Choso, Guts, and Kira Yamato; February for Dark Kabuto and Minato Namikaze; March for Gillis, Sakazuki, Stark, the Frieren and Fern re-releases, Black Deku, and the Jujutsu Kaisen reprints; April for Tengen Uzui, Luffy, Scissors, All For One, and Hashirama; May for Ultraman Hikari, the childhood Midoriya and Bakugo set, and the Volcancer set; June for Whitebeard. Distribution splits between general retail and Premium Bandai, where several items run lotteries or first-come sales for CLUB TAMASHII MEMBERS tiers.
