PiccoNeemo Character Series (or just Picconeemo Characters) is a line of dolls created by Azone under their CCT division. It is designed to be a companion line to the PureNeemo Character Series, focusing on 1/12th scale collaboration dolls based on various anime and pop culture characters using the PiccoNeemo body. Unlike the main PureNeemo line, the PiccoNeemo dolls are geared more towards action figure collectors and have a higher emphasis on interchangable parts and molded on hair.
Dolls
The Assault Lily offshoot line launched concurrently with the larger PiccoNeemo Character Series label. As a result, Yuyu and Riri were the first dolls to be released in both lines. While the Assault Lily dolls feature the main branding on their boxes and promotional materials, they are considered to be a separate series altogether, and no other dolls will be featured on this page.
Starting in 2012, Azone periodically sold head and hair sculpts based on the CCT division mascots at toy and figure events. In 2015, they released their very first full doll based on their main mascot character, Asagi-chan. She released under the additional “CCT Sisters” label, implying they had intentions to make dolls of more characters as a separate line, similar to the Assault Lily dolls. However, the name has not been used since.
The Asagi-chan doll is frequently used as a figurehead for Azone themselves and often pops up across news and promotional photos across the CCT division.
On October 16, 2025, Azone announced a pair of dolls based on characters from the Rozen Maiden anime and manga franchise. Unlike previous dolls in the line, the pair are made using larger heads and the shorter PiccoNeemo P body, giving them much more chibi-like proportions. They are also the first dolls in the line to use wigs and inset eyes. Currently, only Shinku is available for preorder.
Garage Kits
Prior to their official releases, resin garage kits based on the sculpts for the Tsugumi and Nipako dolls were sold exclusively at events. These kits were meant to be assembled and painted by the owner, and all stock and promo images are finished samples. The bodies for these kits were simplified versions of the PiccoNeemos used for the full releases and lacked proper chest and waist joints. Their heads were blank, but could easily be made to look on model through the included face decals.
Clothing Set
A single clothing set was produced in addition to the dolls. The set was released under Azone’s general Character Costume Series rather than under the PiccoNeemo Character Series label. Despite that, it was specifically designed to be worn by the Nipako doll.
Unreleased
At AK-Garden SP Niigata [2] in March 2017, an updated version of the Nipako doll was announced, dubbed as Nipako 2.0. This version of the doll featured an updated head sculpt, four new face plates – including crying and smug expressions – and white and blue loafers. The doll was set to release later that year, but was not seen past this event.

At AK-Garden [16] in June 2019, a doll based on the event’s mascot, Gadeko, was announced. She was scheduled to release later that year, but was later delayed to spring 2020. There were no further updates after that. The Gadeko character was retired from wider use in 2022 which likely led to the limited releases of her outfit and head sculpt in June of that year in place of a full doll.
