Indeed it is. interest gradually built-up over the last five/eight years, -an Artbook here, a DVD set there- but things have been ramping up within the last couple years or so, acquiring these four dolls, -all from different companies and product lines spanning the last 20 years- and unifying them under the recent OBITSU brand 26cm. hobbyist's aftermarket Doll Body.
