Honkai: Star Rail Ichiban Kuji Vol.3: Every Prize and POTEPOTTE Plush
Ichiban Kuji Honkai: Star Rail Vol.3 is BANDAI SPIRITS' third prize lottery for HoYoverse's turn-based RPG, and it went on sale in Japanese stores on September 12, 2026. The headline draws are three extra-large POTEPOTTE plushes of the Amphoreus cast, with a fourth waiting as the Last One Prize.
This guide lays out every tier from A Prize down to the Last One Prize, the price per draw, the release dates, and the flat goods most collectors overlook. It also explains what a POTEPOTTE plush actually is, who the featured characters are, and how fans outside Japan can pull the set. Every figure and date below is drawn from the official Ichiban Kuji page and Japanese hobby press, cross-checked against the listing running at Akibato.
Ichiban Kuji Honkai: Star Rail Vol.3: Release Date and Price

- Maker: BANDAI SPIRITS

Because the set sells through Japanese convenience stores and the domestic Ichiban Kuji ONLINE shop, overseas collectors usually rely on a store that draws on their behalf.

All 9 Prizes in Honkai: Star Rail Ichiban Kuji Vol.3
The Vol.3 lineup runs nine tiers, and the top three plus the Last One are all POTEPOTTE plushes. The middle and lower tiers are flat goods with generous type counts, so even a losing plush ticket still lands a usable item.
POTEPOTTE plush prizes (A, B, C, and Last One)
- A Prize: POTEPOTTE Plush — Cyrene (about 38cm)
- B Prize: POTEPOTTE Plush — Phainon (about 38cm)
- C Prize: POTEPOTTE Plush — Mydei (about 38cm)
- Last One Prize: POTEPOTTE Plush — Castorice (about 38cm)
The flat-good tiers (D through H)
- D Prize: Acrylic Board (6 types, about 19cm)
- E Prize: Plush Band (8 types, about 8cm)
- F Prize: Plate (13 types, about 10cm)
- G Prize: Acrylic Charm (13 types, about 8cm)
- H Prize: Clear File & Ticket Case Set (13 types)
There is also a Double Chance Campaign: entrants can win a POTEPOTTE Plush of Phainon in a special Double Chance version, limited to 30 units. It is a separate draw from the numbered tiers, so it does not change your odds on the A-through-H prizes.
What Is a POTEPOTTE Plush?
A POTEPOTTE plush is BANDAI SPIRITS' seated, round-bodied plush template, built around a soft sitting pose with a slightly tilted head and resting paws. For Vol.3 the format is scaled up to roughly 38cm tall, which is closer to a display centerpiece than a keychain-sized toy.
That size is the reason this series matters to collectors rather than casual buyers. At about 38cm, the Cyrene, Phainon, Mydei, and Castorice plushes are the largest prizes in the set and the hardest single tickets to pull, which is exactly why the flat-good tiers exist to soften an unlucky draw.
Who Are Cyrene, Phainon, Mydei, and Castorice?
All four plush characters come from Amphoreus, the setting introduced across Honkai: Star Rail's 3.x updates. If you paused the game before that arc, these are the faces that dominate its story and its recent playable roster.
Phainon and Cyrene are central figures in the Amphoreus storyline, while Mydei and Castorice arrived as playable Amphoreus characters that fans spent months pulling for in-game. Turning that specific cast into 38cm plushes is a deliberate move at the current wave of player attention, which is part of why Vol.3 sold quickly at launch.
Which Prize Should You Chase in Vol.3?
If you are drawing for a single character, the answer is simple: the A, B, and C plushes are the only guaranteed way to get Cyrene, Phainon, or Mydei at the 38cm size, and each is its own tier. There is no way to choose which plush you receive from a normal draw.
The Castorice plush is trickier because it is the Last One Prize, awarded only to whoever takes the final ticket from a kit. If Castorice is your target, watch the Last One rules closely; our guide to the Ichiban Kuji Last One Prize explains how that reward is claimed and why it usually costs more on the secondary market. Collectors who want a broad, lower-stakes pull instead often prefer the plentiful F and G tiers, or a character-driven set like the Pokemon 30th Anniversary Vol.2 kuji.
How to Draw Honkai: Star Rail Ichiban Kuji Vol.3 Outside Japan
Ichiban Kuji is sold physically inside Japan, so there is no official worldwide checkout button. Overseas fans have two realistic routes: a proxy-buying service that draws for you, or a Japan-based shop that runs the lottery and ships the prize out.
Our walkthrough on how to buy Ichiban Kuji outside Japan compares those routes and the costs to expect. If you would rather skip the setup, Akibato draws Vol.3 in Japan and ships internationally — you can see the live set in the Ichiban Kuji collection. Star Rail fans building a wider shelf also tend to browse the store's anime figures for scale and prize pieces to pair with the plushes.
