A life-size figure of Marin Kitagawa from My Dress-Up Darling has been revealed, with pre-orders now opened at ¥1.32 million, including tax, which comes to about $8300 USD
Standing at 164 cm tall, the 1/1 scale figure recreates Marin’s appearance from the anime with attention to details including her facial expression, long hair, proportions, and skin coloring. The description also describes that the fingertips feature glittered nail tips, while the left arm comes with two interchangeable parts allowing for either a peace sign or an open-hand pose.
The figure also uses fabric materials for Marin’s school uniform shirt, necktie, and skirt. Beneath the uniform is the swimsuit seen in Season 1 Episode 2, while her black and silver bracelets are also recreated as separate accessories.
The completed figure is expected to weigh approximately 36.33 kg and is scheduled for release around June 2028..

Crunchyroll is streaming the anime, describing the story:
Wakana Gojo is a high school boy who wants to become a kashirashi–a master craftsman who makes traditional Japanese Hina dolls. Though he’s gung-ho about the craft, he knows nothing about the latest trends, and has a hard time fitting in with his class. The popular kids–especially one girl, Marin Kitagawa–seem like they live in a completely different world. T
