Madoka Magica's Kyubey-Cosplaying Doll Offered in Japan
posted on by Egan Loo
The doll maker Groove is offering a fashion doll cosplaying as Puella Magi Madoka Magica's polarizing character Kyubey in its lineup next January. The doll uses Groove's DAL doll body as its base with a kigurumi costume suit of Kyubey.
Among other dolls, Grooves offers a fashion doll of Madoka Magica's title character, different Pullip dolls of the anime's Homura Akemi and Mami Tomoe characters, and a doll cosplaying as Mori Chack's Gloomy Bear. The cosplay shop Fragment is already offering a human-sized Kyubey kigurumi costume suit.
Aniplex of America will release the anime itself with English subtitles and dubbing in North America.
