2018 has also been a great year filled with cool collectables and merchandise!

[As a matter of fact, Popular Bookstore is currently offering a 20% rebate in conjunction with the school holidays so if you still have yet to add them to our collection (GASP!), now’s your chance to grab them all for a steal before they run out!]

Fans of Lawak Kampus got an unexpected treat this year with a surprise collaboration between Monsta and Kadokawa Gempak Starz in the form of the exciting, BoBoiBoy Galaxy X Lawak Kampus: SUPERIOR crossover comic book. Never in our wildest dreams did we even think we would get to see BoBoiBoy drawn in comic artist Keith‘s famous art style!

With the release of its own line of trading cards: BoBoiBoy Galaxy Card, Monsta has been positioning itself as a lifestyle brand this year!

Young fans of BoBoiBoy Galaxy can sharpen their arithmetic skills through BoBoiBoy Galaxy Card‘s fun and engaging gameplay. They are also great as collectables for older fans as every series of cards can combine together to make giant posters – each with a unique design! Monsta has also hosted several Galaxy Card Tournaments at selected venues in Malaysia throughout the year, letting players battle it out while meeting new, like-minded friends! Get your hands on BoBoiBoy Galaxy Card at 7-Eleven outlets, Petronas Mesra, Shell Select, myNews.com, POPULAR Bookstores, and on our online platforms: Lazada, Shopee, 11Street and Monsta Store!

▲ BoBoiBoy Galaxy Card is now available on more than 8 physical and online stores nationwide!

Not to limit ourselves within the country, BoBoiBoy Galaxy ventured out of Malaysia too!

Our fans from Indonesia were very lucky indeed. They got to enjoy KFC’s Chaki Kids Meal campaign featuring the beloved characters from BoBoiBoy Galaxy. Customers were able to receive one BoBoiBoy Galaxy toy for FREE with each purchase of the meal. There were 5 toys to collect! So awesome!

On top of that, in collaboration with MAPS (Movie Animation Park Studios), Monsta has recently launched a brand new ride at the Perak-based theme park: the Cattus Coaster, where you can help Cattus find a new home while escaping dangerous monsters! Or, you can hop onto our well-loved BoBoiBoy 4D Ride and team-up with BoBoiBoy to fight evil aliens. You can also train to become superheroes and protectors of the galaxy by joining the Hero Academy.
