Figure Maker Kotobukiya Holds Event to Celebrate First Anniversary of Cu-Poche Figure Line 22

On May 3, an event was held at Kotobukiya Akihabara to celebrate the first anniversary of Kotobukiya’s popular figure line Cu-Poche. At the event, tons of new and still in development Cu-Poche figures were on display.

Many fans attended the event, which was held on the fifth floor event space. Many new and prototype Cu-Poche figures of characters from such series as Fate, Idolmaster, and Oreimo were on display, and there was no end to the sound of shutters clicking as fans took pictures of it all.

Cu-Poche versions of Kirino and Kuroneko from Ore no Imouto ga Konna ni Kawaii Wake ga Nai.

A characteristic of Cu-Poche is that they have 14 points of articulation––neck, shoulders, elbows, wrists, knees, feet, and waist––so they are capable of movement and many different poses.

During the festivities, a cake was brought out illustrated with popular characters from Madoka Magica. There was also a large cake prepared in the middle of the exhibit, and at designated times (11:00, 13:00, and 15:00) fans gathered for a commemorative photo shoot with the Cu-Poche all lined up.

A cake designed with an illustration of Madoka Kaname Ultimate Ver. It’s too pretty to eat!

This is a cheesecake designed after Nagisa Tomoe. Similarly to the Madoka cake, this one was made by the character cake brand Anime Sugar.

We attended the 13:00 photography session. The anniversary cake was covered in Cu-Poche!

Even after the 13:00 event was over, fans mingled on the lower floors. The venue couldn’t contain their enthusiasm. It seems that Cu-Poche will become even more popular from here on. We’ll keep an eye on how this product line develops.
