A 100% Steel Ball Run Kuji (and yes, that’s an event)
We’re talking about an Ichiban Kuji JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure Steel Ball Run centered on the wildest race in the JoJo universe: the crossing of the United States, its deadly stages, alliances that blow up, and the duo that carries the whole arc: Johnny Joestar and Gyro Zeppeli. The official line-up already announces MASTERLISE pieces, a “mount” prize (yes), and a Last One that reeks of an iconic rival.
Confirmed prizes (MASTERLISE): the heart of the race
Here is everything officially listed so far for this Ichiban Kuji Steel Ball Run. Some prizes (F to J) are still hidden: no guesswork, we’re waiting for the reveal. In the meantime, the headliners are already very real, with announced sizes and HD visuals.
- A: Johnny Joestar MASTERLISE (figure, approx. 13 cm)
- B: Gyro Zeppeli MASTERLISE (figure, approx. 25 cm)
- C: Slow Dancer MASTERLISE (Johnny’s mount, approx. 25 cm)
- D: Lucy Steel MASTERLISE (visual not provided here, but prize confirmed in the official list)
- E: Steven Steel (small storage, “box”/catch-all tray, prize confirmed?)
- F to J: mystery prizes (announced but not detailed yet)
- Last One: Diego Brando MASTERLISE (approx. 25 cm, obtained by drawing the very last ticket)
Spotlight on the pieces with HD images (one per prize, clean)
The official visuals make the intent crystal clear: fully committed “Steel Ball Run arc” picks. We’re looking at characters and elements directly tied to the heart of the race (not just a vague “best of”). And just having Slow Dancer in MASTERLISE is an ultra-specific Steel Ball Run proposition.
A: Johnny Joestar MASTERLISE (approx. 13 cm)
Johnny Joestar, protagonist of Steel Ball Run, in his “race” era: the one where he clings to every stage to move forward, physically and mentally, through clashes and revelations tied to the competition. The announced format is more compact (about 13 cm), which makes it super collectible next to the big pieces in the line.
B: Gyro Zeppeli MASTERLISE (approx. 25 cm)
Gyro Zeppeli in large-format MASTERLISE (about 25 cm) is exactly what we want to do justice to Johnny’s key partner in Steel Ball Run. In the story, Gyro isn’t “just” an ally: he’s the one who pulls him into the race’s momentum, its techniques and mindset, and who becomes a pillar of the arc as the stages go by. This is clearly a “main event” piece of the lottery.
C: Slow Dancer MASTERLISE (approx. 25 cm)
The prize that screams Steel Ball Run at 200%: Slow Dancer, Johnny’s mount during the race. In this arc, the horses aren’t just scenery: they’re part of the adventure’s very identity (stage pacing, strategies, chases, duels). The piece is announced at about 25 cm, so it has real presence—and it’s a much rarer pick than yet another “standing hero” figure.
Last One: Diego Brando MASTERLISE (approx. 25 cm)
The Last One (the reward for the last ticket) is dedicated to Diego Brando, a major rival in Steel Ball Run. Announced size: about 25 cm. It’s exactly the kind of prize that sparks end-of-box rushes: a central arc character, in MASTERLISE, locked behind the “last draw” mechanic.
Practical info: Ichiban Kuji JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure Steel Ball Run goes on in-store sale starting June 27, 2026 (rolling release). Official price: 850 yen per draw (tax included, 10% rate).
Collector’s note: prizes F to J are still unrevealed, and the announced Double Chance reprises Diego Brando MASTERLISE. As soon as the full line-up drops, that’s when this Kuji can go from “already cool” to “can’t-miss.”
Out of stock = game over: as always with Ichiban Kuji, it ends when there’s none left. If you wanted a Kuji that truly breathes Steel Ball Run (Johnny, Gyro, Slow Dancer, Diego), this one is clearly worth watching very closely.
