A few months ago we reported that the independent manufacturer HobbyHouse studio had announced the release of an unofficial 1/4 scale figure based on the character Marin Kitagawa from the Sono Bisque Doll wa Koi wo Suru ( My Dress-Up Darling ) franchise for the fourth quarter of the year 2022 or the first quarter of the year 2023, depending on the distributor. Recently, more photographs of this fabulous product were finally revealed.
For those who have already forgotten Kitagawa, his description writes:
- « Marin Kitagawa is a popular and beautiful high school girl in Gojo's class. She is very into cosplay and has tried to make her own, but without much success. By chance, she discovers that Gojo knows how to sew, and the two bond over their mutual enthusiasm for their respective hobbies. She is a terrible cook, with a bubbly personality. Her favorite cosplayer is Juju-san, and she watches anime and plays video games for fun. Kitagawa-san is very emotionally mature, down-to-earth, and respectful ."
Since its announcement, the product already promised excellent quality that rivaled even the most prominent manufacturers. However, now that the product is out and some people are getting their hands on it, it seems to be better than expected. Let's remember that the product is not cheap at all, with a price of around 400 US dollars , plus shipping costs depending on the distributor, so the quality is in accordance with the price.
In a popular Facebook group, a user shared more photos and explained some changes he made to the product: " I don't know which part I enjoyed more, whether to dress it up or undress it. In any case, HobbyHouse Studio was able to capture the true essence of the story and the anime. You can also change the colors of the crystal base from bright purple to peach, while controlling the shine. For me it is an excellent product. I spent about 600 to 650 dollars including shipping to my country, customs taxes, and the uniform ».
Sinopsis de Sono Bisque Doll wa Koi wo Suru
Engrossed in the family business of traditional doll making, Wakana Gojou is a reserved high school freshman with no friends. With the painful memory of a childhood friend's contempt for his interest, Gojou is unable to relate to his classmates and his hobbies, so he ends up isolating himself. Gojou hasn't yet perfected the crafting of the doll's faces, but he is exceptionally skilled at making his own clothes. His skill with the sewing machine is soon discovered by his beautiful partner Marin Kitagawa, whose boldness and honesty Gojou both admires and envies. Instantly, she shares with Gojou his own hobby: he likes to dress up as erotic video game characters.
However, Kitagawa does not know how to sew her own costumes, which leads her to seek Gojou's expertise. Being drawn into the lovely girl's endless adventures related to cosplay, Ella Kitagawa becomes the first friend of hers who fully accepts him. Thus, although they are polar opposites, their relationship slowly blossoms thanks to her ability to help each other in the intricate world of cosplay.
