The scare floor is getting a prize shelf. On 2 October 2026, Bandai Spirits revealed the full line-up for Ichiban Kuji Monsters, Inc., a "no blanks" character kuji based on the Disney and Pixar film. The headline prizes are a Sulley, Mike and Boo figure from the door-vault scene and an "energy tank" coin bank that plays the sound of children's screams as the coins go in.
This is a Japan release, with sales starting on 17 October 2026. Below you will find the full prize list, the key dates in UK time and an honest note on availability.

What is Ichiban Kuji?
Ichiban Kuji is Bandai Spirits' long-running lottery-style prize format. Each ticket wins a prize according to its letter, from A downwards. This Monsters, Inc. edition is a "no blanks" kuji, which means every ticket wins something. Disney and Pixar kuji sit alongside the anime lines in the range, and this one has an easy-to-explain gimmick in the sound-playing energy tank.
The full prize list
Sizes are approximate and come from the official line-up.
- A prize, Hide and Escape Figure (about 14 cm): Sulley and Mike with Boo, in the door-vault scene.
- B prize, "Energy Tank" coin bank (about 16 cm): a tank-shaped money box that plays children's screams and the sound of energy filling up when coins go in.
- C prize, "Chirarin Friends" plush mascot (2 designs to choose from, about 6.5 to 12 cm): Sulley and Mike peeking over the edge of a monitor, hanging from a tank or helmet. The official page warns that it may not hang on screens of some widths.
- D to G prizes, "Displayful" mini figures (one design each, about 4.5 to 5.5 cm): Sulley with Boo's bedroom door, Mike with his company helmet, Randall with an energy tank and Roz with a binder. They can be displayed in their blister packs.
- H prize, Monsters, Inc. corporate assortment (3 designs to choose from): a neck strap with a card holder carrying a Sulley or Mike staff ID.
- I prize, Monsters towel collection (9 designs to choose from): jacquard half towels and microfibre towels.
- J prize, poster and postcard set (10 designs to choose from): an A3 poster with postcards of memorable scenes.
- K prize, stationery collection (9 designs to choose from): a sticker set, a pop-up memo with Roz watching over it, and washi tape printed with "2319".
- Last One prize, Hide and Escape Figure with Randall (about 14 cm): the A prize scene with Randall changing colour as he chases. The last ticket wins it.

The scream-collecting coin bank
If one item is going to get shared around, it is the B prize. It is modelled on the yellow scream canisters from the film, and it reacts when you use it: drop a coin in and it plays children's screams along with the sound of energy filling up. For fans of the film, it is a clever way to turn pocket change into a desk ornament.

Plush, mini figures and the smaller prizes
The C prize plush mascots are designed to peek over the edge of a screen, while the D to G mini figures bring in Randall and Roz alongside Sulley and Mike. Further down the list the everyday prizes cover towels, a poster and postcard set, and stationery, so there is something for collectors and for fans who simply want a Monsters, Inc. towel.
