HUNTER×HUNTER

As of the most recent stories, HUNTER×HUNTER merchandise is in heavy rotation, with multiple figure lines and a new manga volume. Volume 39 topped the Japanese book chart in July 2026, and the Phantom Troupe and Greed Island arcs dominate current figure and apparel releases.

Synthesized from 7 Yomimono stories · updated 10h ago

The HUNTER×HUNTER franchise is in a period of intense merchandise activity, with at least six product lines announced or released between May and August 2026. The most recent story, from August 17, details two Phantom Troupe figure releases: a premium S.H.Figuarts Chrollo Lucilfer available for pre-order from August 3 and a budget Gashapon HG series Vol.2 with four members, on sale from August 18. These two price points for the same characters in the same season suggest a deliberate strategy to capture different collector segments.

The Greed Island arc is a recurring focus. An Ichiban Kuji lottery, revealed August 15, offers figures of Gon, Killua, Hisoka, Razor, and Goreinu, with a Last One prize of Biscuit in muscular form, launching August 29. Earlier, Graniph released a 20-item apparel line themed on the arc on June 2, with designs referencing specific moments like the dodgeball team-up and Biscuit's training. The arc's influence extends to a Figlife! Potclean prize figure, a coin bank that started appearing August 6.

Beyond merchandise, the franchise's commercial strength was confirmed in July when Volume 39 topped Billboard JAPAN's JAPAN Book Hot 100, beating One Piece and Haruki Murakami. The volume includes chapters 401-410 and features Hisoka on the cover alone for the first time. Meanwhile, the Zoldyck family received their own Ichiban Kuji in May, including a Last One Prize figure of the guard dog Mike, a character never before made into a prize.
