This major toy event, a true celebration for model and figure enthusiasts, is divided into zones for popular series like "One Piece," "Dragon Ball," "Naruto," and "Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba." It also showcases the latest releases from recent hits like "Dandadan" and "Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX," with the event running simultaneously at two venues! Overall, it's truly spectacular. Let's start with the first venue, located at Huashan's West 1 Hall. Upon entering, you're immediately greeted by the incredibly stylish "One Piece" themed blind box toy series, "Luffy’s Memories of Adventure" Vol. 1. The full-wall visual, the giant white statue, and the physical toys—the entire display is just stunningly cool!
▼ Here are the numerous S.H.Figuarts characters that come with an interchangeable head sculpt for Luffy! All lined up.
The Dragon Ball section not only impressively displays S.H.Figuarts characters from the original "Dragon Ball" to "Dragon Ball Daima," but also features the first release from Tamashii Art, "Dragon Ball Son Goku & Shenron," which caused a massive sensation upon its announcement. It's worth noting that both the Dragon Ball zone and the Godzilla zone, which we'll see later, feature the largest number of items ever displayed by TAMASHII NATIONS, making for an absolutely satisfying viewing experience.
▼ The on-site display features an LED lighting effect. If you're there in person, be sure to wait until it lights up!
▼ The back of the Figuarts Zero Goku (Mini) & Shin (Mini) complete figures features a sculpted "Dragon Ball Daima" logo.
■ Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba
▼ It's Tanjiro, equipped with the Flame Hashira's sword guard. That intense expression is so cool!
▼ Rengoku! His expression, showing him fighting relentlessly despite being severely injured, is enough to bring you to tears!
■ Naruto
▼ So emotional! This display case is full of feels!
■ My Hero Academia
▼ Stardust Dragon with its wings spread is just too awesome!
▼ Guts from his time in the Band of the Hawk.
▼ From "JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Part 1: Phantom Blood," it's JoJo Jonathan Joestar, making an elegant appearance!
▼ Malenia, Blade of Miquella from the popular video game "Elden Ring" also gets an S.H.Figuarts figure.
▼ From the Hong Kong police action film "Police Story," it's "Detective Chan Ka-kui"!
▼ Making its Taiwan debut, the new flocked series mofamofy features a soft texture that is incredibly charming and super cute!
Next, the Godzilla zone is incredibly impressive! The exterior of the display case is printed with a massive image of S.H.MonsterArts Godzilla, and as soon as you step inside, you're instantly surrounded by numerous monsters—a truly immersive experience!
The Mazinger Z zone features a display stand shaped like Mazinger Z's head, presenting it in a fortress mode that resembles a city of steel.
▼ A zone that brings together Ultraman, Super Sentai, and Kamen Rider.
▼ The brand new Ultraman Omega, coming soon!
▼ From Toei's 49th Super Sentai series, "Gozyu Sentai Gozyuger," Ookami Red makes a grand appearance! The display case also features an autograph from Shio Touno, who plays Touga Tono / Ookami Red!
▼ Here you can see exactly what "sculpting from the skeleton up" means for the Shinkocchou Seihou line!
■ Mobile Suit Gundam
▼ Lacus's graceful figure—toy fans, you must come and experience it for yourselves!
▼ Next up is the zone for the recent smash hit, "Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX," which sparks widespread discussion among Gundam fans with every new episode. The giant statue and character standees are perfect for taking tons of photos!
▼ The Red Gundam!
▼ The White Gundam
▼ This running pose is reminiscent of the opening sequence!
▼ Unexpectedly, we saw a super gigantic Chogokin robot. The anticipation is huge!
Next, we head to the second venue located in the Taipei City Mall: TAMASHII SPOT TAIPEI. Upon entering, the first thing you see right in the center is the METAL BUILD "God Gundam & God Gundam II." Inside, there are also new items on display, including the S.H.Figuarts "Luffy" from the Egghead Arc, "Ranma" & "Shampoo" from the Figuarts Zero chouette line which focuses on female characters, and the "Super Transformation Mickey Mouse" from the Chogokin series.
Finally, don't miss out on the perks you can enjoy by visiting the exhibition in person! These include photo opportunities at both venues and a gift-with-purchase promotion. Toy fans visiting during the Dragon Boat Festival long weekend shouldn't miss out.
