There is a series of capsule toys in the capsule toy section that I somehow find myself checking to see if a new release has been made.
It is the Machiboke series developed by Bandai's Gashapon®.
As the concept of "I'll always be waiting for you......" suggests, these deformed figures, clutching their knees and looking wistful, have attracted fans with a wide variety of motifs, including animals and food.
Their healthy and somewhat surrealistic appearance has attracted a great deal of attention on SNS and other social networking sites, where people are tempted to display them side by side.
JoJo's Bizarre Adventure," a timeless classic, has finally joined such a popular series.

Since its serialization began in 1986, "JoJo's Bizarre Adventure" has had a passionate fan base with its one-of-a-kind worldview.
This time, the "Machiboke" version features the faces of the "Stardust Crusaders," the third part of the series that boasts one of the series' most popular features.
They usually decide on a dynamic pose called "JoJo Stand" and quietly hold their knees as they wait for .......
This overwhelming gap is the greatest attraction of this collaboration.
This time, each gashapon costs 500 yen.
The lineup consists of the following four types selected from the main members who will travel together to Egypt.
Jotaro Kujo
Joseph Jouster.
Jean-Pierre Polnareff
iggy
From the texture of Jotaro's school uniform to Polnareff's unique hair style, the quality is convincing, with the characters' personalities shining through despite their deformation.
This time, I was drawn to the main character of the series, Jotaro Sorajo, and his grandfather, Joseph Jouster!
Review] Jotaro Sorajo
The atmosphere of Jotaro is beautifully reproduced, so much so that you can almost hear him saying, "Oh my God, I'm so tired of this .......
I was also surprised by the superb modeling of the trademark hat, with the silhouette of the hat and hair integrated into one piece, the badge on the hat, and even the earrings were finely rendered!
Her expression is exquisite and cute! The gap between her appearance in the work is amazing lol.
They watch over our work.
[Review] Joseph Joestar
Next is Joseph, who is also the protagonist of the second part and the commanding officer in the third part.
The figure of a man wearing a deep hat and waiting with gloved hands on his knees is both graceful and comically adorable at the same time.
Personally, he was the character I felt I was most tired of waiting for! (lol)
They seem to be dissatisfied.
He still seemed dissatisfied.
Conclusion
JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Machiboke" can be placed on your desk, and you will suddenly feel as if you are traveling with them while you are working or studying.
I will let them watch over me too.
And more exciting news for fans!
Soon, "JoJo`s Bizarre Adventure Machiboke Stardust Crusaders 02" will be released.
In the next installment, we can expect to see the rest of the traveling companions, Kakyoin and Abdul and their friends.
If you line them all up together, you are sure to get a big kick out of it!
