More dolls from AZONE today! Here come the main heroines Kirisame Marisa and Hakurei Reimu from Touhou Project! But sorry for the Reimu fans, she is Hobby Japan exclusive.
Since ZUN, the creator of Touhou, changed the rules for releasing Touhou stuff, I thought wouldn’t see Touhou figure products as much as before but I was wrong. Seems like ZUN actually opens up the door for the figure manufacturers. =D

——Description from Manufacturer—— From the ultra-popular bullet-hell shooting game Touhou Project comes the the “normal” magician who lives in the magic forest, Marisa Kirisame! Making her debut in the Pure Neemo series Marisa includes a must-have item for any magician, her trusty broom, as well as the Mini-Hakkero created for her by Rinnosuke Morichika!

Wait, so Reimu is an exclusive but Marisa isn’t? Isn’t that strange? And I though ZUN’s rules were to only sell Touhou merch. inside Japan.
I think it is only limited to doujin stuff. As for the manufacturers, seems like they have some kind of deal with ZUN behind us. =P
Happy happy us then ! =D
I want to get it… except I haven’t stepped on the boat to collecting dolls. But Marisa could be the start. Hmmm @o@
yah, the only thing which will be banned by Zun’s new guideline is hentai products, commercial downloadable content are limited to Japan only, and touhou anime
for manufacturers, they only need to ask ZUN’s permission I think, that’s all (which I think will be very easy as long as it’s not hentai product)

I’ll buy an AZONE doll some day. Just so I can say I have one. The price isn’t too bad.
Can you tell me where to buy it plz? I know bunch of website for figure but not for dolls…
Oh sorry. I didn’t see your comment before. Actually, amiami and hobbysearch both sell dolls along with their figure line. Here’s the Marisa doll which is still open for preorders.
