Ichiban Kuji Persona 30th Anniversary (2026): Confirmed Prizes and the P3, P4, P5 MASTERLISE Figures

The Ichiban Kuji Persona 30th Anniversary launches in Japan on November 28, 2026, and BANDAI SPIRITS has already revealed its headline figures. This guide lists every confirmed prize, the sizes in centimeters, and how collectors outside Japan can actually get one. If you play Persona 3, 4, or 5, this is the anniversary set to watch.

What Is the Ichiban Kuji Persona 30th Anniversary?

The Ichiban Kuji Persona 30th Anniversary is a BANDAI SPIRITS prize lottery that celebrates 30 years of Atlus's Persona series. It goes on sale in Japan from November 28, 2026, at 850 yen (tax included) per draw, and every ticket wins something — there are no blanks.

The set runs from Prize A through Prize I, plus a Last One Prize and a Double Chance campaign, for 80 items in a full case. The draw for fans is the trio of protagonists from Persona 3, Persona 4, and Persona 5, all sculpted in Bandai's premium MASTERLISE EXPIECE line so they display together at a matched scale.

As of this writing Bandai has shown the three protagonist figures and the Last One Prize; Prize A and Prizes E through I are still hidden on the official site, with more announcements promised. If you already plan to chase this set from overseas, Akibato ships Ichiban Kuji figures from Japan — the current Ichiban Kuji shelf shows what is in stock right now.

Every Confirmed Prize So Far

Here is what Bandai has officially revealed, in prize order. Sizes are approximate and taken from the official product page.

• Prize B — Persona 3 Protagonist, MASTERLISE EXPIECE, about 20 cm
• Prize C — Persona 4 Protagonist, MASTERLISE EXPIECE, about 18 cm
• Prize D — Persona 5 Protagonist (Joker), MASTERLISE EXPIECE, about 17 cm
• Last One Prize — "PERSONA30th THE GIGANT NAME", a sculpted logo figure about 40 cm
• Prize A, Prizes E–I, and the Double Chance campaign — not yet revealed

Note that the three heroes are the mid-tier figure prizes, not Prize A. Bandai has held the top prize back, which usually signals that the largest or most elaborate item in the set is still to come.

The Three Protagonist MASTERLISE Figures to Chase

The appeal is simple: the three most iconic Persona leads, sculpted in the same premium line at a matched scale, so they line up as a trio on one shelf.

MASTERLISE is Bandai's higher-grade prize-figure line, and the EXPIECE tag marks its larger, more detailed tier — closer to a boxed scale figure than a standard prize figure in paint and finish. For the full breakdown of what that label means, see our guide on what MASTERLISE means and whether the figures are worth it.

The Persona 3 and Persona 4 protagonists are shown in dynamic, battle-ready poses that reference their own games, while the Persona 5 lead appears as Joker in his Phantom Thief attire. All three carry the crisp, matte MASTERLISE finish the line is known for, and at roughly 17–20 cm they read as a deliberate matched set rather than three unrelated prizes.

The Last One Prize: "PERSONA30th THE GIGANT NAME"

The Last One Prize — awarded to whoever draws the final ticket in a set — is not a character figure this time. It is a roughly 40 cm sculpted logo piece called "PERSONA30th THE GIGANT NAME," built around the series' 30th-anniversary commemorative artwork.

It is the largest item revealed so far and works as the centerpiece of a Persona display. Because Last One Prizes are limited to one per set, they are usually the single hardest item to secure and the first to climb in price on the aftermarket. If you want the full explanation of how that prize is won, our Ichiban Kuji buying guide covers it alongside the other tiers.

How Big Are the Figures in cm?

All three protagonist figures sit in the compact-but-detailed range typical of MASTERLISE EXPIECE prizes:

• Persona 3 Protagonist — about 20 cm
• Persona 4 Protagonist — about 18 cm
• Persona 5 Protagonist (Joker) — about 17 cm
• Last One "GIGANT NAME" logo figure — about 40 cm

For how those numbers compare to boxed statues, see our reference on anime figure scale sizes in cm. In short, these prize figures are a little smaller than a typical 1/8 scale statue (around 21–23 cm) but noticeably larger than most chibi or Q-style prizes.

Why the Persona 30th Anniversary Set Matters

Persona turns 30 in 2026. The series began as a spin-off of Atlus's Shin Megami Tensei franchise and grew into one of the most recognizable names in Japanese role-playing games, with Persona 5 in particular breaking the series into the Western mainstream.

That history is why Bandai is leading with the P3, P4, and P5 protagonists rather than a single character: the three leads represent the modern era that most overseas fans discovered the series through. For collectors, an anniversary Ichiban Kuji is often the flagship figure event of the year for a franchise, so demand — and resale pressure on the best prizes — tends to run high.

How to Get the Persona 30th Ichiban Kuji Outside Japan

Ichiban Kuji is sold as a physical, in-store lottery in Japan — at convenience stores, hobby shops, and bookstores — so you cannot simply add a chosen prize to a cart on release day. Outside Japan there are three realistic routes:

• Buy the single prize you want from a Japan-based store that draws sets and sells the individual figures.
• Buy a full set if you want the whole lineup, including the Last One Prize.
• Use a proxy service to draw tickets on your behalf, accepting that you receive random prizes.

We compare the costs and trade-offs of each in our guide to buying Ichiban Kuji outside Japan. Because the figures are region-locked at launch, deciding early whether you want a single figure or the full case is what usually determines the price you pay.

What We Still Don't Know

The reveal so far is deliberately partial. Prize A is the biggest open question: it is typically a large or premium item, and Bandai has not shown it. Prizes E through I — usually goods such as towels, keychains, and art boards — and the Double Chance campaign figure are also unannounced.

It is also unclear whether characters beyond the three leads will appear anywhere in the set. Bandai has said only that further details will follow closer to the November 28 launch, so the lineup below Prize B may still grow.
