After making a huge splash following its premiere, Oshi no Ko fans are in for a treat as Good Smile Company and Kadokawa unveiled a beautiful new figure of Ai Hoshino.
This one is probably the most eye-catching one not only because of its detail but also thanks to its large 1/7 scale.
Given that the anime is quickly gaining a lot of hype, it makes sense that it is starting to get new figures such as this.
Oshi no Ko Makes a Huge Splash Following Premiere
Even before the anime aired, the Oshi no Ko manga already had a sizeable fanbase.
After all, it is written by Aka Akasaka, the creator of Kaguya-sama: Love Is War.
It also helps that the series has a beautiful art style thanks to the illustration work of Mengo Yokoyari, the creator of Scum’s Wish.
While the anime got some attention thanks to its trailers, it made a huge splash following the first episode as it quickly trended on Twitter and other platforms.
One of the main reasons it trended is thanks to its interesting hook.
After all, an anime about idols that’s not your typical slice-of-life story makes it unique.
It also helps that the feature-length first episode had a shocking ending that blindsided many anime-only fans. Thus, interest in the show spiked.
Because of this, we’ll likely see the show’s popularity rise even more. And we should also get even more merch as the season continues.

Good Smile Company Reveals Oshi no Ko Ai Hoshino Figure
Good Smile Company is a notable creator and distributor of anime figures, and their latest one is a figure of the show’s central character, Ai Hoshino.
This large 1/7 scale figure features Ai in her signature performing pose in the anime’s key visual, complete with her pink idol outfit.
Despite being a non-poseable figure, this collectible is in a dynamic pose, making it an eye-catching addition to any anime fan’s shelf.
Of course, because of its detail and scale, you’ll need to shell out some serious cash.
Specifically, this figure is priced at JPY 21,780 (or USD 157.99).
Plus, while pre-orders are available now at the Good Smile US online shop, it will take some time to get it delivered as it is set to release in November 2023.
For those who are on a tighter budget, Good Smile will likely unveil more affordable Nendoroids or Pop-Up Parade figures from Oshi no Ko soon.
