Stop Monkeying Around!
Nah just kidding, go bananas because Sekiguchi is releasing Wake-UP momoko DOLL WUDsp Monchhichi Hood Cape.
Almost every year fans are presented with a Monchhichi themed Momoko doll, to celebrate Monchhichi’s birthday.
The 2018 Monchhichi Momoko doll may look familiar to some because she’s similar to the doll released in 2016 along with Ruruko.
I believe the 2018 version will be a re-color however Sekiguchi didn’t publish images of the updated color. 🙁
the creative process in action. Join us on this exciting dolly journey!
Momoko’s freckles are too adorable for words, I wouldn’t mind owning her cape and a pair of those slippers.
Both look cozy and warm and would be perfect for those long winter nights.

Is there a picture out yet?
I am really curious as to how she will look like.
Hi Nadia,
Sekiguchi hasn’t posted an official picture 🙁
I looked for images of the Monchhichi event to see if someone took a photo of her but sadly I only found 1 image.
From what I can tell she looks exactly like the original.
I wish there was a better image of the cape, I’m thinking this is where the 2 dolls differ.

Thank you so much for at least looking for a picture.
It’s sad that there aren’t more than one available.
If the cape is where it differs then the new cape doe look a little more dark brown but that might just be the picture.
Hey Nadia!
No problem at all. 🙂
Funny enough Sekiguchi just posted an up close image of the 2018 version. xD
The color of her makeup and eyes are different.
