Kaiju No. 8 is back with a second wave of Funko Pop! figures this year, and this drop keeps the momentum going.
What’s New in Pop! Animation: Kaiju No. 8 Funko Pop!
After the first wave delivered a big lineup, Funko clearly sees the growing traction of the anime and wastes no time expanding the roster.
This new release introduces eight fresh characters and moments, including a deluxe variant, a large-scale 6-inch kaiju, and two retailer exclusives.
The selection broadens the representation of Defense Force members while also leaning further into monster forms and action-heavy displays. It is a balanced mix: key squad members, a standout deluxe Special Weapons variant, and a couple of exclusives that collectors will chase instantly.
With the anime heating up and the fandom growing fast, this second wave confirms that Kaiju No. 8 is shaping into one of Funko’s bigger anime lines for 2025. The variety here makes it a strong follow-up to the first wave and offers collectors plenty of new display options.
About Kaiju No. 8
Kaiju No. 8 blends action-heavy military combat with evolving kaiju mythology, and that mix is exactly why the franchise exploded in popularity. The story follows Kafka Hibino, who gains kaiju transformation abilities and becomes a classified weapon within the very agency meant to destroy monsters.
The series stands out because its characters each bring their own style, humor, and combat ability. That variety makes the world feel alive, and it also translates perfectly into Funko Pop! form: distinct outfits, weapon poses, transformation stages, and dramatic battle scenes practically design themselves.
With wave two, Funko continues to lean into the franchise’s strengths. More Defense Force members means more squad-focused displays. Expanded kaiju forms bring scale and visual weight. A deluxe variant pulls from one of the more intense combat moments. And a duel set taps into the anime’s fast-paced battle energy.
This wave deepens the universe while keeping the line exciting for both long-time fans and newcomers discovering Kaiju No. 8 for the first time.
New Kaiju No. 8 Funko Pop! Vinyl Figures
Characters from Kaiju No. 8 have been transformed into Funko Pop! Vinyl figures and are part of the Funko Pop! Animation series.
The second Kaiju No. 8 Funko Pop! wave introduces a strong lineup with eight new figures. Each one reflects a distinct personality or combat specialty from the series.
Iharu Furuhashi brings his sharp, determined presence to the line with a design that mirrors his growth and increasing confidence on the battlefield. Clean lines, standout equipment, and a focused pose make him a solid addition to the squad.
Haruichi Izumo arrives with the calm, controlled strength that defines him. His figure shows off the disciplined attitude and tactical mindset that fans appreciate, giving the team roster more depth.
Aoi Kaguragi adds a more stylized punch to the wave with a look that matches his sharp movement and fast responses. The sculpt emphasizes his quick-footed character and fits neatly alongside the other Defense Force members.
Isao Shinomiya brings a commanding presence to the collection. His design captures his authority, intensity, and high-ranking position within the Defense Force, making him one of the standout standard figures in the wave.
Kikoru Shinomiya (Falling Thunder) (Deluxe) arrives as a deluxe figure, recreating one of her high-impact combat moments. The pose is dynamic, her weapon effect is bold, and the motion-heavy sculpt adds energy to any Kaiju No. 8 display.
Kaiju No. 8 (Uncontrolled) (6 inch) comes in a larger 6-inch scale, giving the monstrous transformation the size it deserves. This version emphasizes raw power, aggressive energy, and the untamed form that defines some of the most intense scenes in the story.
Soshiro Hoshina vs Kaiju No. 10, a Chalice Collectibles exclusive, delivers a dramatic two-figure battle moment. The sculpt captures movement, tension, and the signature style that made their fight such a highlight.
Gen Narumi lands as an Amazon exclusive, bringing the confident, stylish flair he’s known for. His distinct look and high-ranking status make him a fan favorite, and the exclusive release will push demand even further.
Pre-order Kaiju No. 8 Funko Pop! Vinyl Figures
Pre-orders for the second Kaiju No. 8 Funko Pop! wave are rolling out across major retailers. Standard figures should be widely available, while the deluxe release and the 6-inch kaiju will likely see stronger early demand.
Exclusives may fluctuate depending on region, so collectors should secure them quickly to avoid aftermarket prices.
The Chalice Collectibles Pop! & Buddy is expected to be one of the most sought-after items in this wave due to its dynamic sculpt. The Amazon exclusive Gen Narumi will not stay in stock long either, given his status in the series.
