SDCC 2022 & Wonder Festival 2022 [Summer]

Updated: Aug 17, 2022

Usually this time of year is quite exciting for collectors. We have one of the two biggest conventions in the US and also one of the biggest figure events in Japan - SDCC and Wonder Festival.

However this year, no new announcements came from either of the events. Usually we see a few interview videos from SDCC or details from a panel. However no interview videos have been uploaded and it was noted on the SDCC panel listings site that they didn't host a panel either.

This is very peculiar as collectors know that these events you usually get a good number of updates, whether it be new statue reveals or perhaps an illustration reveal for a previously teased silhouette. Maybe we'll see something come NYCC time? Or perhaps another ONLINE event.

So for this reason I will be placing both events under the same blog post

SDCC is back! And Kotobukiya was at the event in person this year at booth 3535. Unfortunately there was no panel at this years event and no new BISHOUJO announcements.

This video was for the Tokyo ZeroStar & Kotobukiya booth, this was a separate booth from the dedicated Kotobukiya one.

Wonder Festival 2022 Summer

On July 24th, the summer Wonder Festival took place at Makuhari Messe. Usually Kotobukiya has a booth of their own at this event, however their products were on display at the AmiAmi booth as confirmed by a friend who attended the event.
