The Naruto Shippuden Galaxy Version (GV) series from Blokees is structured as a Surprise Box format: each sealed pack contains one randomly selected character kit from the confirmed wave roster. Alongside the standard wave characters, each GV pack includes hidden secret variants — lower-frequency pulls featuring alternate character forms tied to specific arcs in the Naruto Shippuden series. Full lineup at Naruto Toys. Official series at Naruto Official Website.
This guide covers all six confirmed secret variants across GV01, GV02, and GV03 — who each character is, what form the variant represents, and how each one fits into a display.

How GV Secret Variants Work
The Naruto Shippuden GV series is the Surprise Box format entry in the official Blokees Naruto lineup. Each pack is sealed at the factory with one character kit selected at random from the wave roster — which includes both standard characters and lower-frequency secret variants.
Standard variants are the primary roster for each wave. Secret variants appear less frequently than standard wave characters, making them the rarer pulls within the same sealed-pack format.
All characters — standard and secret — are officially licensed Naruto Shippuden kits. The difference is pull frequency, not product quality. Secret variants are confirmed characters from the series; the list of six across GV01, GV02, and GV03 is provided by Blokees.
GV01 — Secret Variant 1: Naruto Uzumaki (Kurama Mode)

Why Kurama Mode Naruto Is One of GV01’s Biggest Chase Pulls
Kurama Mode is the form Naruto Uzumaki achieves when he and Kurama — the Nine-Tailed Fox sealed within him since birth — abandon their conflict and genuinely cooperate. It first appears in the Fourth Shinobi World War arc. More at

GV01 Ultimate Bond — secret variant |
|
Ages 9 YEARS+ |
Confirmed on official product page |
Why Collectors Want It
The Kurama Mode directly reflects the theme of GV01 — Ultimate Bond. The pack is named after the relationship between Naruto and Kurama; pulling the Kurama Mode variant from the same pack that references that bond is the most thematically aligned pull in the GV01 wave.
- Thematic alignment — GV01 is named ‘Ultimate Bond’ because of the Naruto-Kurama relationship. This variant puts that bond’s visual form in your hand.
- Power peak — Kurama Mode represents Naruto at his strongest in Shippuden. Collectors tracking Naruto’s power progression will want this form for completeness.
- Rare pull — secret variants appear less frequently than standard wave characters within the same sealed pack format.
Best Display Pairings
- Legend Edition 01 Kurama (Nine Tails) — pairing the Kurama Mode Naruto kit with the full Kurama Nine Tails kit creates the most complete visual representation of the Ultimate Bond relationship in the Blokees lineup.
- Champion Class 02 Naruto Uzumaki — display the standard Naruto alongside the Kurama Mode variant to show the character’s power evolution.
GV01 — Secret Variant 2: Minato Namikaze (Kurama Mode)

The Rare Minato Variant Naruto Fans Hunt For
Minato Namikaze — the Fourth Hokage and Naruto’s father — appears in Kurama Mode during the Fourth Shinobi World War arc. His reanimated form joins the battle alongside Naruto after being brought back by Kabuto’s reanimation jutsu.

GV01 Ultimate Bond — secret variant |
|
Ages 9 YEARS+ |
Confirmed on official product page |
Why Collectors Want It
Minato is the character fans most associate with the “Ultimate Bond” concept — he gave his life to seal Kurama into Naruto, creating the bond the GV01 pack is named after. A secret variant of Minato in Kurama Mode is the ultimate pull for the emotional backstory of GV01.
- Father–son narrative — Minato and Naruto sharing Kurama Mode in the same arc is one of the series’ most impactful father–son moments.
- Rare design form — Minato in Kurama Mode is a specific arc appearance, not his standard Fourth Hokage design. Collectors focused on completeness need this variant to represent the full arc.
- Two-secret display — pulling both GV01 secrets (Naruto and Minato in Kurama Mode) allows the only side-by-side father–son Kurama Mode display in the GV lineup.
Best Display Pairings
- Naruto Uzumaki (Kurama Mode) GV01 secret — the only two-kit setup in the lineup showing father and son in matching power forms.
- Champion Class 03 Minato Namikaze (Reanimation) — pair the GV01 Minato secret with the Champion Class Minato Namikaze to show the standard Hokage design alongside the war arc Kurama Mode form.
GV02 — Secret Variant 3: Naruto Uzumaki (Sage Mode) Secret

Sage Mode Naruto and the Most Iconic Secret Pull in GV02
Sage Mode is the power Naruto masters at Mount Myōboku, learning to draw in natural energy from his surroundings. It’s visually distinctive — the horizontal toad-eye markings around his eyes, altered iris color, and the shift in posture. It first appears at full deployment during the Pain Arc, when Naruto enters Konoha to defend the village. Technique documentation at Naruto Fandom — Sage Mode.

GV02 The Place The Leaves Dance — secret variant |
|
Ages 9 YEARS+ |
Confirmed on official product page |
Why Collectors Want It
GV02 is named after Konoha — the place the leaves dance. Naruto’s Sage Mode entrance into Konoha during the Pain Arc is one of the most iconic homecoming moments in the series. The secret variant of Naruto in Sage Mode connects the GV02 theme (Konoha identity) with the character’s most celebrated defense of that home.
- Arc-defining moment — Sage Mode Naruto’s return to Konoha is the visual peak of the Pain Arc and the most significant arrival in Shippuden.
- Distinctive visual form — toad sage markings, altered posture, and the stillness required to gather natural energy all make Sage Mode visually distinct from any other Naruto form.
- Different Naruto form — collectors tracking Naruto’s forms across the GV series want this to contrast with the standard Naruto and the Kurama Mode variant.
Best Display Pairings
- Jiraiya Secret (GV02) — Jiraiya taught Naruto the foundations that led to Sage Mode. The two GV02 secrets paired together create a teacher–student display.
- Champion Class 02 Naruto Uzumaki — display alongside the standard Champion Class Naruto to show the visual difference between his standard Shippuden design and Sage Mode.
GV02 — Secret Variant 4: Jiraiya Secret
Jiraiya’s Secret Variant Is a Fan-Favorite Chase Pull
Jiraiya is one of the Legendary Sannin and Naruto’s primary teacher in Part II of the series. He trained Naruto in summoning, sage techniques, and the Rasengan’s evolution. His death during the investigation of the Akatsuki’s leadership is one of Naruto Shippuden’s most affecting plot points.

Significance |
Jiraiya’s death is Naruto’s most significant loss in Shippuden. He represents the teacher whose sacrifice drives Naruto to master Sage Mode. Pulling Jiraiya as a secret is the deepest connection to the GV02 ‘Place The Leaves Dance’ theme. |

Why Collectors Want It
Jiraiya doesn’t appear in the standard GV roster alongside his students. As a secret variant, he’s the hardest pull in GV02 and the one that adds the most character diversity to the lineup.
- Non-standard character — Jiraiya isn’t in the standard wave characters. Pulling him means your GV02 display extends beyond Naruto to include the teacher who shaped him.
- Highest emotional weight — among all GV secret variants, Jiraiya carries the most narrative significance for Naruto’s development.
- Teacher–student pairing — the only Blokees kit that allows a Jiraiya–Naruto display at the same scale.
Best Display Pairings
- Naruto Uzumaki (Sage Mode) Secret — the direct teacher–student connection. Jiraiya’s final mission directly leads to Naruto learning Sage Mode.
- Champion Class 02 Naruto Uzumaki — a Jiraiya–Naruto display using the standard champion-tier Naruto as the student anchor.
GV03 — Secret Variant 5: Naruto Uzumaki (Nine-Tail’s Cloak – Third Tail) Secret

The Partial Nine-Tails Cloak Hidden in GV03
The Nine-Tail’s Cloak – Third Tail represents Naruto beginning to lose control of Kurama’s power. Unlike the cooperative Kurama Mode in GV01, this form shows Naruto being consumed by the Nine-Tails’ chakra rather than channeling it. The Third Tail stage appears during Naruto’s fight with Orochimaru in the Tenchi Bridge arc.

GV03 Heart of a Ninja — secret variant |
|
Ages 9 YEARS+ |
Confirmed on official product page |
Why Collectors Want It
Collectors tracking Naruto’s Nine-Tails relationship across the GV series will want all three Naruto forms — standard, Sage Mode (GV02), and the Nine-Tails Cloak (GV03). The Third Tail form is the darkest of the three and the most visually distinct.
- Power-arc completeness — the three Naruto GV secrets (Kurama Mode, Sage Mode, Third Tail) represent three entirely different phases of his power development.
- Dark counterpoint — the Third Tail form is Naruto losing control, not gaining it. It adds visual and emotional contrast to any display featuring the cooperative Kurama Mode variant.
- GV03 theme connection — the ‘Heart of a Ninja’ theme references core shinobi values. Showing a form where Naruto’s ninja spirit is temporarily overcome creates a compelling thematic tension.
Best Display Pairings
- Sasuke Uchiha Secret (GV03) — the two GV03 secrets together recreate the rivals’ confrontation — Naruto in the Third Tail cloak versus Sasuke.
- Naruto Uzumaki (Kurama Mode) GV01 — showing the Third Tail (losing control) next to Kurama Mode (full cooperation) in one display tells the complete story of Naruto’s Nine-Tails relationship.
GV03 — Secret Variant 6: Sasuke Uchiha Secret

Sasuke’s Secret Variant Completes the Rivalry Display
Sasuke Uchiha is Naruto’s rival and the central counterpart character in Naruto Shippuden. His arc tracks the divergence from Naruto’s path and his eventual return. In GV03, his secret variant represents the rivalry dynamic that is central to the series’ final act.

GV03 Heart of a Ninja — secret variant |
|
Ages 9 YEARS+ |
Confirmed on official product page |
Why Collectors Want It
Sasuke is the only character outside the main Naruto forms and Jiraiya in the six-secret lineup. His inclusion as a secret in GV03 is the only way to add Sasuke to the GV display at all.
- The only Sasuke in the GV lineup — Sasuke doesn’t appear as a standard variant in any GV pack. This secret is the only GV representation of the rival.
- Rivalry display completion — a display including Naruto Uzumaki (any GV form) alongside Sasuke Uchiha is the defining visual pairing in Naruto Shippuden collecting.
- GV03 theme alignment — ‘Heart of a Ninja’ is partly defined by the code that separates Naruto’s values from Sasuke’s choices. Both characters together represent the theme more fully than either alone.
Best Display Pairings
- Naruto Uzumaki (Nine-Tail’s Cloak – Third Tail) Secret — the two GV03 secrets together create the rivals’ confrontation from the Tenchi Bridge arc directly.
- Champion Class 04 Sasuke Uchiha — the Champion Class Sasuke kit at $19.99 provides the full articulated open-selection version. The GV03 Sasuke secret and the Champion Class version shown together demonstrates both the Surprise Box and open-selection formats using the same character.

How to Protect and Display Your Pulls

Secret variants from the GV Surprise Box series carry collector significance beyond standard wave kits. A few care habits make the difference.
Display
- Enclosed shelf — keep secret variant kits inside an enclosed display rather than on an open shelf. Dust accumulates faster on kits that stay in one position for extended periods.
- UV light — avoid placing any GV kits in direct natural light. The PVC colors respond to UV exposure over months and years.
- Separate from standard wave — displaying secret variants together rather than mixed into the standard wave kits makes the rarity immediately visible.
Protecting the pull record
- Keep original packaging — for collector documentation, the sealed pack and any included character card identify which specific variant was pulled from which wave.
- Photograph on opening — documenting the unboxing creates a provenance record for the pull — useful if the variant is ever traded or sold.
Conclusion
The Blokees Naruto Shippuden GV series contains six secret variants spread across its three-pack wave: two in GV01 (Naruto and Minato in Kurama Mode), two in GV02 (Sage Mode Naruto and Jiraiya), and two in GV03 (Third Tail Naruto and Sasuke Uchiha). All six are officially licensed Naruto Shippuden characters representing specific arc forms and relationships.
Pulling a secret variant from any GV pack doesn’t require any special purchase. It’s the standard Surprise Box format — each sealed pack, each pull is a chance. The secret variants are simply the rarer characters within that same format.

FAQs
What are Naruto secret variants in the Blokees GV series?
Secret variants are lower-frequency characters included in the same Surprise Box wave alongside standard pulls. The six confirmed GV secret variants are: Naruto Uzumaki (Kurama Mode) and Minato Namikaze (Kurama Mode) in GV01; Naruto Uzumaki (Sage Mode) Secret and Jiraiya Secret in GV02; and Naruto Uzumaki (Nine-Tail’s Cloak – Third Tail) Secret and Sasuke Uchiha Secret in GV03.
They’re official licensed kits, not custom or unofficial products. The only difference between standard and secret variants is how frequently they appear within a sealed wave.
Which GV secret variant is the rarest?
Pull frequency data for individual GV variants isn’t published on the official product pages. All six are described as secret variants, meaning each appears less frequently than standard wave characters.
Collector demand varies by character. Jiraiya and Sasuke Uchiha tend to generate the most collector interest as characters who don’t appear in the standard GV wave roster at all.
Can I guarantee getting a specific secret variant?
No. The GV format is a Surprise Box — each sealed pack is randomly selected. To guarantee a specific character, the open-selection Champion Class format is the correct tier.
The Champion Class series includes Naruto Uzumaki, Sasuke Uchiha, Minato Namikaze, and other Naruto characters as named, open-selection kits. If you need a specific character confirmed before purchase, start there.
Is Sasuke Uchiha in the standard GV wave?
No. Sasuke Uchiha only appears as a secret variant in GV03. He’s not in the standard roster for GV01, GV02, or GV03. Pulling the GV03 Sasuke secret is the only way to add Sasuke to your GV display.
For a guaranteed Sasuke Uchiha kit, the Naruto Champion Class 04 Sasuke Uchiha in the open-selection format is the alternative. Both options are in the official Blokees lineup.
What is Naruto’s Nine-Tail’s Cloak – Third Tail form?
This is a partial Nine-Tails Cloak stage where Naruto begins losing control of Kurama’s power, forming a partial cloak with tail extensions. It appears during Naruto’s fight with Orochimaru in the Tenchi Bridge arc of Naruto Shippuden.
Unlike Kurama Mode (in GV01), which represents cooperation with Kurama, the Third Tail stage represents Naruto being consumed rather than empowered by the Nine-Tails’ chakra. The two forms in the same display create a visible contrast in the character’s power relationship.
How do I verify an authentic Blokees Naruto GV kit?
Check for the official Naruto Shippuden licensing mark on the packaging (Pierrot / TV Tokyo). The product name should match the confirmed official product page name. Purchase from the official Blokees store to eliminate authentication risk.
For secondary market purchases, verify that the seller’s product description matches the confirmed GV kit format — $8.99 retail price, ages 9+, sealed pack format.
What’s the best display for the GV03 secret variants?
The GV03 Naruto Uzumaki (Nine-Tail’s Cloak – Third Tail) Secret and the Sasuke Uchiha Secret placed facing each other recreates the rivals’ confrontation from the Tenchi Bridge arc. These two are the only GV variants that directly reference a specific Naruto–Sasuke confrontation.
For a wider rivalry display, add the GV01 Kurama Mode Naruto to show the power contrast — the Third Tail (losing control) next to the Kurama Mode (full cooperation) tells the complete arc of Naruto’s Nine-Tails relationship.
How is the GV secret variant different from a Champion Class kit?
GV kits are the Surprise Box format — random selection, $8.99 per pack, ages 9+. Champion Class kits are the open-selection format — named specific characters, $19.99 each, ages 14+, with higher articulation and more accessories.
Secret variants are the rare characters within the GV Surprise Box format. They’re not Champion Class kits, and they don’t have the same articulation level. The GV secret variants are the chase version of an entry-tier format; Champion Class is a different product tier entirely.
