October 2017 PLEX hopes you’ll be their guest in welcoming home a Prince with a beastly secret.
The 3rd Doll Collection is the handsome Beast/Prince Adam from the animated film, Beauty & The Beast.
We first heard about Beauty & The Beast dolls on June 1, 2017 when Groove stated they would display prototypes at Tokyo Toy Show 2017.
Fans were curious about how the designers would create Prince Adam’s beast form, and I’m surprised at the results.
His fluffy headgear is so whimsical and cute.
He reminds me of a Cairn Terrier.
It makes me chuckle every time I look at him.
I had no idea how they would go about designing his beast face but they did a good job capturing the likeness of the beast.
And it’s a wonderful touch that fans have the option of either displaying him as The Beast or as Prince Adam.
The Doll Collection’s Prince Adam’s face is different and unexpected.
The designers captured has unique lips and facial features.
Mark Your Calendar:
You can expect The Beast October 2017.
Release Date: October 2017
Price: ¥22,000 about $195
