Nogizaka46 Yuki Yoda:In the special program "New Year's Plastic Model Talk," she appears in a gorgeous formal attire and talks while building a plastic model

A special program themed around plastic models, "New Year's Plastic Model Talk 2025 ~ Happy New Year Plastic Models~" will be broadcast on TV Tokyo at 6 am on January 2nd. The program will feature Yuki Yoda of the idol group Nogizaka46 , who starred in the TV station's drama series " Ryosangata Riko ", and actor Kanata Hongo will have a conversation while building plastic models. Yoda will be showing off a gorgeous formal kimono.

Also appearing will be Yoji Tanaka, who appeared in the "Ryosangata Riko" series, and YouTube creators Tetsuya and Mushimegane from "Tokai On Air." The "LINKL PLANET," the official PR ambassador for Bandai Spirits' plastic models, will visit Aoshima, Tamiya, Hasegawa, and Bandai Spirits in Shizuoka to win presents for viewers in the "New Year's Present Relay Corner."

Yoda commented, "Happy New Year! For this year's New Year's special, I built a plastic model together with Tanaka Yoji! While assembling it, we had a lot of private conversations and it was a very fulfilling time. I hope that the charm of plastic models can be conveyed to everyone. Thank you for your continued support this year!"

Hongo said, "I've been told that it's okay to have fun and relax while making my favorite plastic models with my close friends, so I'd like to create something free and fun that's different from the serious Gundam model kits that I usually make. I hope to share the charm and freedom of plastic models with everyone, so I hope you will enjoy watching it over the New Year holidays!"

Tanaka commented, "I am honored to be spending the start of 2025 with Yuki Yoda. This is the first time in my life that I've been dressed in traditional Japanese clothing for the New Year. Yodatcho looks dazzling in her formal attire! And building a Gundam model kit is like "Kumihajime" rather than "Kagamizuke"! I hope this program will become a new New Year tradition. Let's get up early on this day, do the Kumihajime together, and play 'Givebirth!' Look forward to it!"
