On Sunday July 27th, 2025 will begin the Summer 2025 edition of Wonder Festival (ワンダーフェスティバル). This is also known as Wonderfest or Wonfes (ワンフェス) for short. The event is a one-day, in-person event in Japan.
The event is split between the official figure manufacturers promoting their upcoming figures to be sold through normal outlets for the rest of the year and one-off “groups” that make their own custom figures for sale during the event. These one-off, fan-groups’ figures are given a single day use approval from the appropriate copyright holders. Typically these figures are sold at high prices with a very limited quantity. Often these figures are promoted online via social media prior to the event.
