Released by T-ARTS, a toy brand under Japan's TAKARA TOMY Company, the animal gashapon series "Hang In There Doggy" (tentative translation, ふんばり～ぬ), which all you pet parents will immediately understand upon seeing, is set to launch its latest third volume this March! There are a total of six types (5 + 1 secret) to collect, with a suggested retail price of 300 Japanese Yen per capsule.
New members are joining the ranks of dogs solely focused on fully "unloading"! The poses they strike surely need no further explanation! When you see a dog in this spread-legged, motionless posture, tissues and dog waste bags should be ready immediately~ This collection not only vividly captures the dogs' desperate "straining" actions but also meticulously carves out the soft texture of their fur, making them super cute from any angle. Interestingly, you can even use the paper included in the gashapon to create your own "brown object"! In other words, you have to make the dog's poop yourself!
"Hang In There Doggy Vol. 3" includes a Siberian Husky, Corgi, Dachshund, Pekingese (Lion Dog), Schnauzer, and an unannounced secret type. Sizes range from approximately 3.7 to 6.2 cm. The Husky, looking very diligent yet inexplicably silly, is simply too cute! It's worth noting that "ふんばり" in the product name has meanings in Japanese such as "perseverance," "effort," and "standing with legs spread wide and not moving." Here, it not only describes the dog's posture but also reflects the situation of the dog diligently "unloading"~ Furthermore, the "り～ぬ" part of "ふんばり～ぬ" sounds somewhat similar to "いぬ" (inu), the Japanese word for dog, which is quite interesting~
