Japanese model kit manufacturer Kotobukiya showcased development prototypes and painted samples of several upcoming releases in its “Sousai Shojo Teien” series at AK-GARDEN 30. Created in collaboration with illustrator En Morikura, the series brings everyday schoolgirl characters to life as plastic model kits. Further product announcements are expected to follow from late 2026 onward.
“Sousai Shojo Teien” is a line of 1/10 scale plastic model kits developed by Kotobukiya and popular Japanese illustrator En Morikura. Featuring ordinary high school girls with distinctive personalities, the series centers on five themes: building, painting, decorating, swapping, and collecting. Beyond assembling each character’s default look, builders can mix and match hairstyles, expressions, bodies, outfits, and accessories to create their own favorite characters.
The exhibition marked the first public display of painted samples for “Ritsuka Saeki [School Festival Maid Costume],” “Ritsuka Saeki [School Festival Maid Costume] DREAMING STYLE Starry Night Kitty,” and “Kuon Yakushiji [Qipao Costume] DREAMING STYLE White Peach Girl.” Their rich colors highlight the intricate details of the costume parts, showcasing more adventurous outfit designs than previous releases. The White Peach Girl version of Kuon Yakushiji is based on the previously announced standard version, with preorders scheduled to open in November 2026 exclusively through Kotobukiya Shop and other designated retailers.
