Fans of the classic anime series Yu-Gi-Oh! can now pre-order the Yu-Gi-Oh! Desktop Collection, a new set of collectible figures released by Japanese toy manufacturer Re-Ment. The collection, scheduled to hit shelves in November 2024, includes six unique figures that capture the beloved characters Yugi, Kaiba, and Joey, along with their iconic monster companions. Each figure is designed with a practical twist, making this set a perfect addition for collectors and fans who want a touch of Yu-Gi-Oh! in their everyday workspace.
What’s in the Collection? The Desktop Collection includes six meticulously designed figurines, each serving a functional purpose:
- Yugi Mutou: Yugi sits atop a gold sarcophagus, which represents the container for the Millennium Puzzle. This sarcophagus figure doubles as a small storage box.
- Seto Kaiba: Kaiba is seated in a Blue-Eyes White Dragon-themed chair representing Kaiba Corp. This chair can hold sticky notes.
- Joey Wheeler: The Joey figurine shows him alongside his Scapegoats, which function as a smartphone stand.
- Dark Magician: This figure holds memo pads, making it a fitting desk companion for notes.
- Blue-Eyes White Dragon: Designed as a pen stand, the Blue-Eyes figure is perfect for holding pens or pencils.
- Red-Eyes Black Dragon: This figure serves as a stamp holder, completing the lineup with a practical use for desk organization.
The entire set is available for pre-order as a six-figure box set, priced at 5,620 JPY (approx. $36.97 USD), down from its original price of 7,920 JPY. For international fans, the collection is available through online retailers like AmiAmi, making it accessible worldwide. The collection’s official release is expected in November, and supplies may be limited given the popularity of Yu-Gi-Oh! collectibles.
What’s Next for Yu-Gi-Oh! Fans? In addition to this desktop collection, Yu-Gi-Oh! enthusiasts can look forward to more exciting releases. Re-Ment is reportedly working on a larger Yu-Gi-Oh! figure, details of which will be revealed soon. Furthermore, Konami plans to release a Yu-Gi-Oh! Early Days Collection in February 2025, a compilation that brings together all the classic Game Boy Yu-Gi-Oh! games for the Nintendo Switch and PC. This is expected to be a nostalgic treat for fans who grew up playing these titles.
The Yu-Gi-Oh! Desktop Collection offers fans a way to bring the magic of the series into their daily lives, adding a bit of fun and nostalgia to any workspace.
