How LuckeeART works with these IPs

For any line we ship under a brand name, we work directly with the brand owner or their authorised distributor and keep the distribution agreement on file. Authentic items ship with original packaging and, where the licensor publishes one, the batch or QR verification code.

If a line on your shortlist is not listed above, send the name to us anyway — we maintain a working list of IP names buyers are sourcing this season and can usually respond on authoristion within one business day.

Frequently asked questions

Is LuckeeART an authorized distributor for every IP mentioned on this page?

No. This page is a market reference of IP series that buyers search for in 2026, not a stock list. Inclusion of a name does not imply authorization or current availability. Send the IP name via the contact form and we will confirm what we can supply under our existing authorization.

How does LuckeeART verify authenticity and IP authorization?

For any line where we ship under a brand name, we work with brand owners or their authorised distributors and keep the authorisation or distribution agreement on file. Authentic items ship with original packaging and any batch or QR verification the licensor publishes.

Why are some IP names listed in Chinese as well as English?

Several series in the market originate in China or Japan, so buyers and end consumers search in both scripts. Common spellings and the original script are listed together for search convenience.

Can buyers request a series not listed on this page?

Yes. Send the IP name plus the target market and quantities via the contact form. If we are not authorised for that line we will say so plainly rather than substitute an unauthorised source.

How often is this list refreshed?

We update this reference every quarter to reflect new releases and trending series in the market. Series that go out of production are removed from the live reference rather than left indefinitely.
