Based on the most classic version of Yu-Gi-Oh! franchise, new items from Re-Ment are part of the “Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters” official company. This line includes six miniature images of characters from the anime. However, these chibi characters don't just look cute; they are also very useful. The Yami Yug/Dark Yugi statue has a Millennium case that can hold various items, while the Dark Magician has a memory stand. There's also the Seto Kaiba note stand, Blue-Eyes White Dragon pen stand, Katsuya Jonouchi smartphone stand, and Red-Eyes Black dragon stamp stand. Super transformed but also super cool, these images are the best way to turn the office space into a battleground.
Figures are sold separately and are sent randomly as items in a blind box. Thankfully, fans won't have to spend too much money to try their luck and hope to collect them all. “The Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters” retails for 1320 yen each (a little over $8 USD), making them one of the cheaper ways to bring anime, manga, and card games to life. They will be sold in Japanese stores starting May 31, 2024, although online retailers will likely start selling them after this time as well.

Yu-Gi-Oh! Still a major card and anime franchise
The original Yu-Gi-Oh! manga was released in 1996, with the franchise created by Kazuki Takahashi. While the story was initially just about gaming in general, it later shifted its focus to the trading card game “Duel Monsters.” The game has been adapted to become a real-life collectible card game, with 2024 marking the 25th anniversary of Yu-Gi-Oh! card. A year before this happened, Yu-Gi-Oh! anime (known to fans as Part 0) was released, with the series based on the manga before it focused on the cards. Yu-Gi-Oh! The better known Anime Duel Monsters came out in 2000, a year after the game.
Since then, the series has gone on to spawn several anime and manga spin-offs, with the first sequel, Yu-Gi-Oh! GX, is one of the most popular. The current series is Yu-Gi-Oh! Go Rush!, and although the manga ended in March 2024, the anime is still running. Creator Kazuki Takahashi passed away in 2022, but the brand he created is as alive as ever. Most notably, the cards are still selling well, and they continue to rival the success of the popular Pokémon card game.
