One Punch Man Figures 2026: What to Buy Before Season 3 Part 2
One Punch Man figures 2026 shoppers are asking a new question now that Season 3 Part 2 is confirmed for January 2027, picking up right after Saitama's one-punch defeat of Monster King Orochi left the Garou fight unresolved. That announcement has pulled collectors back toward Saitama and Garou merch, but most of the buying guides online were written months before the trailer dropped. Here is what's actually confirmed, what the old guides are missing, and where to look next.
What Was Just Confirmed About Season 3 Part 2
Bandai Namco Filmworks revealed a new trailer and key visual on October 10, 2026, setting a January 2027 premiere for the second cour of One-Punch Man Season 3. J.C.Staff and director Shinpei Nagai are both returning, and JAM Project is back for the opening theme, titled "Never Done - SUPREME POWER VS ULTIMATE FEAR -."
The trailer picks up directly from Part 1's cliffhanger: Saitama had already defeated Monster King Orochi off-panel, leaving his confrontation with Garou unresolved. Part 2's footage makes that fight, plus a major battle for S-Class hero Tatsumaki, the clear focus of the new episodes.
Why the Timing Matters for Collectors
Figure manufacturers plan releases around licensed anime windows, and a confirmed Saitama-versus-Garou arc is exactly the kind of moment that drives new product lines. The figures below were already in motion before the Part 2 trailer, which means collectors who buy now are picking up pieces tied to the exact fight the new season is building toward, rather than guessing at a future wave.
Akibato ships prize and scale figures from Japan for collectors outside the country, so if you're filling out a One-Punch Man shelf before January, the figures below are the ones worth tracking first.
3 Saitama and Garou Figures Already Confirmed for 2026
Three separate figures spanning two price tiers have confirmed 2026 release windows. None of them were made in response to the Part 2 announcement — they were already on manufacturers' schedules — but all three are tied to the Saitama-Garou rivalry the new season will resolve.
| Figure | Maker / Line | Release | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Garou, hyper-articulated | Kaiyodo, Revoltech Amazing Yamaguchi | May 2026 | ¥10,450 (about $70) |
| Saitama, Serious Punch reissue | Kaiyodo, Revoltech Amazing Yamaguchi | July 2026 | Approx. $84–$125 depending on retailer |
| Saitama, "One Punch Life" | Banpresto prize figure | April 2026 | Prize-figure pricing (no fixed retail) |
Kaiyodo's Revoltech Line: Built for Posing, Not Shelf-Standing
The Garou figure in Kaiyodo's Revoltech Amazing Yamaguchi line ships with five interchangeable face parts, ten optional hands, and effect parts for his "Water Stream Rock Smashing Fist" technique, all built around Kaiyodo's revolver-joint articulation system. The companion Saitama reissue stands about 155mm tall, includes six face parts, five hand parts, three power-effect parts, and a wired fabric cape, so both figures can be posed mid-fight rather than displayed standing still. That matters for anyone planning to display the Saitama-Garou confrontation Part 2 is building toward, since static prize figures can't recreate the same pose.
Banpresto's Prize Figures: The Budget Entry Point
Banpresto's "One Punch Life Saitama" is a roughly 200mm PVC prize figure, pre-assembled and priced well under the Kaiyodo line. Banpresto prize figures are typically sold through claw machines in Japan before reaching secondary retailers and resale platforms abroad, which is why pricing on them floats rather than being fixed at a single retail number.
What the Existing Buying Guides Get Wrong
The most-cited One Punch Man merch guide online was published in April 2026, months before the Part 2 trailer existed. It still recommends a solid lineup — Prime 1 Studio's Masterline Genos statue, Max Factory's figma Saitama, Good Smile's Nendoroid, and Kotobukiya's ARTFX J line among them — but it frames all of it around "final arcs through 2026," with no mention of the January 2027 premiere or the Saitama-Garou payoff now confirmed for it. A guide written before the announcement can't tell you which of 2026's figures actually line up with what's coming next; this one can.
What to Watch For After the Part 2 Premiere
New figure waves typically follow a season's premiere by a few months once a studio locks specific fight scenes into the animation. Expect Bandai Spirits' prize-figure lines (Banpresto, Furyu) to announce Garou and Tatsumaki pieces tied to Part 2's actual episodes once it starts airing in January 2027, with premium scale figures from makers like Prime 1 Studio and Good Smile Company following later in the year if the arc lands well with fans. None of that is confirmed yet, so treat it as a buying calendar to watch rather than a release list to preorder against.
For collectors deciding where to put their budget before January, the practical split is: Kaiyodo's Revoltech pair if you want display pieces that can actually be posed mid-fight, and Banpresto's prize figure if you just want a Saitama on the shelf without the higher price tag. Neither choice locks you out of buying a Part 2-specific figure later, since manufacturers rarely retire a character's older line just because a new story arc starts animating.

FAQ: One-Punch Man Figures and Season 3 Part 2
When does One-Punch Man Season 3 Part 2 premiere?
January 2027, confirmed by Bandai Namco Filmworks in the trailer released October 10, 2026.
Is there a Tatsumaki figure tied to Part 2 yet?
No. As of this writing, no manufacturer has announced a Tatsumaki figure specifically tied to Part 2's storyline, even though the trailer makes her fight a focus of the new episodes.
Are the 2026 Saitama and Garou figures based on Part 2's story?
No. All three figures above were already scheduled before the Part 2 trailer existed. They're tied to the characters and their long-running rivalry, not to specific Part 2 scenes.
Can collectors outside Japan buy these figures?
Yes. Kaiyodo's Revoltech line and Banpresto's prize figures are both sold through Japanese retailers and resellers that ship internationally, which is also how pieces from these same manufacturers reach stores like Akibato once they clear Japan's domestic release window.
Where to Buy One-Punch Man Figures Shipped From Japan
Akibato doesn't carry a dedicated One-Punch Man collection yet, but its general figures collection restocks regularly with prize and scale figures sourced from Japan, including pieces from the same Banpresto and Kaiyodo lines covered above. If you already collect from Banpresto's prize-figure lines, the same sourcing applies to One-Punch Man pieces as they go up for resale.
