If you are going to only buy one Stardom photobook a year, the Stardom World series likely is your best bet as it is by far the largest of their photobooks and features the most wrestlers. Here are the wrestlers featured in Stardom World Vol. 1:

- HZK (aka Hazuki)
- Momo Watanabe
- Jungle Kyona
- Hiromi Mimura
- Natsuko Tora

Most of the pictures focus on the wrestlers in their wrestling gear or casual attire with a few exceptions, unlike Model Mode and Bikiniing which focuses more towards lingerie and beachwear, respectively. With over 120 pages, even with the interviews and written details there is still plenty of room for pictures, with every wrestler having multiple pictures features. Many pictures are full sized, however some are half-sized pictures with the text around them. For a fan that doesn’t speak Japanese, the photobook may lose some of its appeal as it is a combination information/photobook, but for its reasonable price it doesn’t hinder the photobook from providing plenty of value. Here is a small sample of photos from the photobook:
