The sale of “Godzilla” series Konbini prints, a unique collectible item born from the fusion of Japanese pop culture and convenience stores, will finally end on December 31, 2025. This is literally the last chance to keep the history of Japan’s “King of the Monsters,” Godzilla, in your hands.
This groundbreaking service allowed fans to easily print and collect historical posters and famous scenes from Japan’s world-renowned “Godzilla” series using multi-function printers located in Konbini stores across Japan, such as FamilyMart, Lawson, Ministop, and Poplar. The grand history of 30 domestic live-action films, starting from the original “Godzilla” in 1954, can become yours as high-quality photo prints.
According to the provider, Samurai Sword Co., Ltd., there are no plans to re-release this “Godzilla Series Complete Collection.” Since the end date was announced, many fans have reportedly been rushing for “last-minute prints.” On social media, laments such as “It’s sad to see this amazing lineup disappear” are already appearing, showing just how popular the collection is.
Japanese Konbini are more than just places to buy food and daily necessities. They serve as cultural hubs that support all aspects of life, from paying utility bills and purchasing tickets to offering entertainment content like this. The “Konbini Print” service, in particular, is a familiar feature for fans dedicated to “Oshikatsu” (the activity of passionately supporting a favorite character or person), as it allows them to obtain limited-edition images of their favorite anime, movies, or idols on the spot.
This Godzilla print series is one of those examples. For overseas Godzilla fans, it was a special experience, like a treasure hunt, where they could acquire valuable art just by stopping by during their trip to Japan. By displaying them in your room, you can feel the power of Japanese monster culture at any time.
The purchasing method is very simple.
One way is to select your desired image in advance on the dedicated service site. You can then purchase it smoothly just by entering the number issued on the site into the Konbini printer. This method is also recommended for those who are not confident with navigating the Japanese-language interface.

Another way is to operate the multi-function printer inside the Konbini store directly. Follow the on-screen instructions, select menus like “Contents Print” or “e-Print Service,” and look for the Godzilla series.

There is only a short time left until the service ends. For those staying in Japan, or for those planning to visit towards the end of the year, do not miss this precious opportunity. Be sure to add the history of Japan’s proud King of the Monsters to your collection. This is not just a souvenir; it will be an experience equivalent to taking home a piece of Japanese pop culture itself.
