The new GSC employees have arrived! (・∀・)ノ
From here on out the newcomers will go through a week of training, and then be joining the rest of us in the offices! I look forward to working with them!
A whole lot of PCs are being set up for them here…
but along with the PCs is this prototype!
From ‘Nichijou’:
Nendoroid Nano Shinonome!
From the popular anime that is now showing on NHK Educational TV, ‘Nichijou’ comes a Nendoroid of Nano Shinonome, the robot high-school student who lives in the Shinonome Laboratory!
Those shiny, innocent eyes are perfect for Nano! Plus she comes with a load of optional parts for fans to enjoy! We’ll be taking a look at them all shortly…
This is how she looks from the back!
Nano’s most noticeable feature – the wind-up key!
Of course it can also be removed, so you can choose whether to display her with or without it, depending on what you prefer!
A smiling face, bent arm and shark hand!
Nano includes some interesting options such as this shark hand! Nano was built by Hakase who loves sharks which explains this particular part.
This of course allows you to recreate the popular rock-paper-scissors scene from the series! Plus, the other hand parts included allow you to make rock, paper and scissors poses as well! :P
A crying face and machine-gun hand!
The worried crying face is so cute! I can understand why Hakase is always so keen to tease her!
Plus we have the second adapter hand part – a machine gun, as well as a bent leg part which allows for a bit of a dynamic pose!
Kneeling parts and a roll cake hand!

Kneeling pose and a chikuwa hand!
/::::::─三三─\
/:::::::: ( ○)三(○)\ ”Eeeh?”

\:::::: |r┬-| /
ノ:::::::::: `ー’´ \
For those who don’t know, a chikuwa is a kind of fish sausage. I have to admit the first time I saw these two parts I was really dumbfounded… I’m pretty sure I’ll never again have the chance to say a figure comes with chikuwa and roll cake hand parts. :P
By the way, you can also remove the arm part at the shoulder, so you could instead connect the strange hand parts directly onto the shoulder.
Let’s try the wind-up key on Miku!
The wind-up key will connect to any Nendoroids that make use of an arm-type base that connects to the back! Snow Miku’s expression seems so appropriate here! It also means your figures will depend on you more than ever before…
“I’ve got to turn the key for her! If I’m not here, she would be no more!!”
At least, that’s how I see it, I hope everyone can see from my point of view :P
Nendo Hakase is also on her way!!
I decided to pose them together! Even though Hakase is just an illustration at the moment! :P
They really do look good together though, and I’m sure the final Nendoroid of Hakase will look perfect displayed with Nendoroid Nano!
From ‘Nichijou’:
Nendoroid Nano Shinonome!
She is up for preorders as of today! (`・ω・´)
If you have any preorder or sales inquiries, be sure to contact our partner shops!
But anyway, that’s all for today!
I hope to see you all again tomorrow!! (・∀・)ノ゛
