Ichiban Kuji Godzilla « The Legend of the Most Terrifying King of the Monsters »: we’re going big
The new lottery Ichiban Kuji Godzilla « The Legend of the Most Terrifying King of the Monsters » has been announced, and the lineup alone tells you how wild it is: Godzilla (2001) in a staged diorama-style version, Battra (larva) (yes, the one from the Heisei era), and Godzilla Junior. Clearly a Kuji made for fans who love it when it pulls from multiple eras of the saga.

Prize breakdown (the scene shown + what makes them cool)
Prize A: Godzilla (2001) SOFVICS, Owakudani appearance version (approx. 23 cm)
Here we’ve got Godzilla (2001), the incarnation from Godzilla, Mothra and King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All-Out Attack. This Kuji stages him in the “Owakudani appearance” version: a specific “moment-in-time” variant rather than a generic pose, and that’s exactly the kind of choice that hits different when you collect Godzilla by era.
Prize B: Battra (larva) SOFVICS (approx. 19 cm long, approx. 11 cm tall)
Battra in larval form is a direct nod to Godzilla vs. Mothra (Heisei era), when Battra emerges as an “anti-humanity” threat and we get that total chaos between Godzilla, Mothra, and Battra. As a Kuji prize, the larva is rarer than the “final” forms you see all the time, so it’s a great pick to diversify a kaiju collection.
Prize C: Godzilla Junior figure (approx. 12 cm)
Godzilla Junior is pure end-of-Heisei DNA: the “kid” we follow notably in Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla II and Godzilla vs. Destoroyah. The 12 cm size makes it stand out next to the big SOFVICS, and that’s exactly what’s cool about a Kuji: you can line Junior up next to the 2001 versions and really feel that generational gap.
Prize G: Monster head magnets (6 types, not selectable, approx. 4 to 7 cm)
The “monster heads” magnet prize is perfect for adding kaiju variety without taking up space. Important: there are 6 types and you can’t choose, so it’s the ultimate “gacha” prize. For a Godzilla Kuji, it’s typically the kind of set you’ll want to complete.
Last One: Godzilla (2001) night battle SOFVICS, heat breath version (approx. 23 cm)
The Last One is the ultimate carrot: Godzilla (2001) in a night battle, with the heat breath variant. And as always: you get it by pulling the very last remaining ticket. If you like “mid-attack” versions, this is clearly the one that cranks up the tension at the end of a box.
