25th Anniversary Celebration! The “Last Prize” is a Giant “Monsters, Inc.” Figure
Japanese lottery culture includes a special rule called the “Last Prize” (or “Last One Award”). This is a special gift given for free to the person who purchases the very last ticket in the store, in addition to the prize they drew.

Standing at an impressive 20.9 cm (approx. 8.23 in), this extra-large figure has a powerful presence, as if Sulley, Mike, and the others are about to jump right out. It is a highly valuable collector’s item worthy of the 25th-anniversary celebration.
