Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

I was always terrible at serving during PE classes back at school. Everyone kept cheering me on but I never really got it right…

Anyway, today I’m going to be taking a look at two products…

Nendoroid Shoyo Hinata: Karasuno High School Volleyball Club’s Jersey Ver. &
Nendoroid Tobio Kageyama: Karasuno High School Volleyball Club’s Jersey Ver.

From ‘Haikyu!!’, the popular volleyball manga series with a second anime series on the way, comes a Nendoroid of Tobio Kageyama wearing his Karasuno High School Volleyball Club Jersey! He comes with a smiling expression overflowing with confidence.The rather unique way they wear their jackets has been faithfully preserved, and Hinata also comes with some meat buns and the bag he uses when going to the volleyball club as optional parts.  Kageyama comes with some ‘GunGun’ Milk and the bag he uses when going to the volleyball club as optional parts. Be sure to display him with Nendoroid Shoyo Hinata: Karasuno High School Volleyball Club’s Jersey Ver. which will be available at the same time!

(Each sold separately)

Ooooooooh!! (´□`。)

The first year Haikyu!! boys strongest duo are back again as Nendoroids, this time wearing their volleyball jerseys!

Compared to their previously released Nendoroids in their uniforms, these two look ready for volleyball to start!! You can find the previous Nendoroids over here:

Nendoroid Shoyo Hinata

(Released January 2015)

Nendoroid Tobio Kageyama

(Released May 2015)

This is how the packaging looks! It’s rather different to usual!  (。・ω・)ノ゙

△The left is the Jersey version, the right is the previous released uniform version!

Not only is it a little more compact, but you also open it in an all new way!! Here is a GIF that should give you an idea of how the box opens up!! 

It kind of folds out! I quite like this kind of packaging!! I hope everyone finds it as appealing as I did…! Moving on…. here we have the blister packs inside! (。・ω・)ノ゙

Nendoroid Shoyo Hinata:
Karasuno High School Volleyball Club’s Jersey Ver. 

Nendoroid Tobio Kageyama:
Karasuno High School Volleyball Club’s Jersey Ver.

Rather Simple! But simple isn’t always bad! Not only is it lighter on the wallet, but there are still all sorts of ways to enjoy these two!!

Let’s start by taking a look at the optional parts and outfits! (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧

△ Kageyama with Gungun Milk and Hinata with Meat Buns!! They look so happy!!
The optional parts and the way they are wearing their jerseys really bring out the differences in their personality!

This is how they look from the back!

You can see the ‘Karasuno High School Volleyball Club’ written on their backs! <○><○>

You can see from the sculpt and paintwork that their bags are each made from different material! Kageyama’s has a glossy, enamel appearance while Hinata’s has a more matte appearance! 

Also, you can swap out the parts between them as well as their alternate Nendoroid versions allowing for a different set of poses for them to take! For example…

These make use of the super excited expressions included with Nendoroid Shoyo Hinata and Nendoroid Tobio Kageyama! (●´ω`●) 

While they are certainly lovely on their own, displaying the two of them together allows for even more fun!! By the way, the Kageyama above makes use of Hinata’s hand but the bent arm part! You can mix things up for all sorts of different situations!

These two figures are a little special, so let’s go over how you can purchase them!
