New JJBA Stardust Crusaders prize lottery focuses on the series’ most popular Stand users
A new “Ichiban Kuji” lottery from Bandai Spirits has been announced, this time centered on the iconic third part of the JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure saga, Stardust Crusaders.
“Ichiban Kuji” is a popular “no-lose” prize lottery system sold at convenience stores and hobby shops across Japan, where every ticket purchased wins an item from a tiered lineup of exclusive merchandise.
Stardust Crusaders is the arc that first introduced the concept of “Stands,” the psychic manifestations of a user’s fighting spirit, which has since become the defining power system of the entire franchise.
This new lottery, titled “-STAND RUSH!-,” features an extensive lineup of high-quality figures from Bandai Spirits’ “MASTERLISE” brand, known for its large scale and detailed sculpting.
The top prizes include figures of the protagonist Jotaro Kujo and his stand, Star Platinum, as well as the primary antagonist DIO and his powerful stand, The World.
The full prize lineup for the lottery is as follows:
- Prize A: Jotaro Kujo MASTERLISE Figure
This prize is a large-scale figure of the series protagonist, Jotaro Kujo.
- Prize B: Star Platinum MASTERLISE Figure
This prize is a large-scale figure of Jotaro’s powerful Stand, Star Platinum.
- Prize C: DIO MASTERLISE Figure
This prize is a large-scale figure of the primary antagonist, DIO.
- Prize D: The World MASTERLISE Figure
This prize is a large-scale figure of DIO’s time-stopping Stand, The World.
- Prize E: Hol Horse MASTERLISE Figure
This prize is a large-scale figure of the gunslinging Stand user, Hol Horse.
- Prize F: Jean Pierre Polnareff & Silver Chariot (Child) MASTERLISE Figure
This unique figure depicts Polnareff after being de-aged by Alessi’s Stand, Sethan, alongside his own Stand.
- Prize G: Alessi’s Stand “Sethan” Die-Cut Mat
This is a die-cut floor mat designed with the motif of Alessi’s shadow-based Stand.
- Prize H: Desktop Mascots
These are small decorative figures for your desk, recreating the Stands of the Egypt 9 Glory Gods and Vanilla Ice’s Stand, Cream.
- Prize I: Mariah’s Stand “Bastet” Acrylic Magnets
This is a collection of acrylic magnets designed to look like Mariah’s Stand, the electrical outlet-shaped Bastet.
- Prize J: Towel Collection
A lineup of towels featuring designs based on the characters from Stardust Crusaders.
- Prize K: Sticker Collection
A collection of sticker sets featuring character motifs from the anime.
A particularly unique item is the “Last One Prize,” which is awarded to the person who purchases the final ticket from a lottery set at any given store.
This prize is a special collaboration with the classic tabletop game “Bannken Gaogao” (often known as “Don’t Wake the Dog”), which has been reimagined with the series’ canine hero, Iggy.
- Last One Prize: “Bannken Gaogao” Iggy ver.
A “Double Chance Campaign” will also run, giving ticket holders a second opportunity to win the same “Bannken Gaogao Iggy ver.” prize through an online lottery.
The lottery will be available at participating Lawson convenience stores, bookstores, hobby shops, Animate stores, and official Ichiban Kuji shops.
The “Ichiban Kuji JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders -STAND RUSH!-” is scheduled to begin its rollout at stores across Japan on Saturday, the 23rd of August, 2025, and the price for one ticket will be ¥850.
