I really love mini pullips and dal but I find that I don’t really do all that much with them, they have the nasty tendency to just sit on the shelf, look cute and well not much else honestly. I hadn’t actually bought a mini pullip or dal in quite a while, the last one I got Penpen was received as a Christmas present I was starting to think I was safe from their adorable siren song then they had to go announce a Kyubey little dal as a part of their docolla series of collaboration dolls. Needless to say I was powerless to resist and bought him from Pullipstyle (he seems to be out of stock at the moment but they restock pretty frequently).

Kyubey is a magical little creature from the Puella Magi Madoka Magica anime/manga series, despite the fact that I don’t really care for most newer anime Madoka has managed to become a favorite series of mine as it turns the entire concept of a magical girl anime on it’s head.

I’m glad I bought Kyubey as I think she may just be my very favorite little dal, she is just way too adorable but also a little bit creepy as it almost appears that instead of dal wearing a Kyubey suit her head is being eaten by Kyubey which in a weird way kind of suits his very much adorable but also a bit sinister character.

The micro-sized Kyubey is actually the Kyubey that comes with the Madoka figma which I own but have somehow neglected to take pictures of properly, I actually still have to photograph most of the anime figures I bought at Anime Boston ^^;
