He also comes with a huge selection of optional weapon parts perfect for a criminal – a rifle, pistol, rope and crowbar! Recreate all sorts of crime scenes in adorable Nendoroid size!
“Heh, heh, heh…”
The mysterious black silhouette from “Detective Conan” that represents the criminal before their identity is revealed is joining the Nendoroid series!!
The Nendoroid features articulated elbows and knees which allows for all sorts of different poses – perfect for posing him preforming all sorts of dastardly crimes!
▲ Looking at his target from a distance…
▲ His shoulders are also articulated for varied poses like so!
He comes with three different face places, starting off with this iconic standard expression!
The overconfident smile has a bit of a comical look to it, but also captures the devious side of the Criminal as well! If you change the angle slightly you can also create a more psychotic smile as well!
▲ The “ripples” of the eyebrows have been sculpted on the Nendoroid
Moving on to the second face plate…
An ominous serious expression!
You really can’t tell what he might be thinking which makes the expression look all the more scary! (´；ω；｀)
▲ Looking at this photo makes the BGM from the series play in my mind!
His third face plate is this emotional shouting expression!
Even though the overall design is obviously very simple, the amount of emotion that has been put into this expression is rather impressive!! There is definitely an imminent sense of danger captured with this expression! ( ´>ω<`)
Plus as you may have noticed he also comes with an assortment of parts:
◆ Rifle ◆ Pistol ◆ Crowbar ◆ Rope
▲The rope is an actual rope, allowing you to easily use it in various poses!
This is how he looks from the back!
Even though he is very highly articulated, the “Nendoroid” chibi appearance has also been faithfully captured, and looks great displayed with other characters!

Anyway, today I’m going to be taking a look at… Nendoroid Giovanni & Mewtwo!
From the popular “Pokémon” game series comes a Nendoroid of Giovanni together with Mewtwo! Giovanni comes with three face plates including his standard expression, a mysterious shadowed expression as well as a realistic expression that contrasts the chibi appearance of the Nendoroid.

His first face plate is the belligerent smile you see above, but he also comes with this mysterious shadowed face plate for some more cunning poses!
(He is definitely planning something evil…)
The face plate itself has the shadow directly painted onto it to really capture the darker side of Giovanni in the shadows!
Moving onto his third face plate, we have a rather unique realistic expression!
A Nendoroid expression with the eye sockets actually sculpted into the face plate might be a first! The nose and mouth are also sculpted in a different style to normal, creating a really strange realistic look that mismatches with the chibi body in a strange yet cute way!
Even so, he still retains a certain amount of chibiness to keep that cute Nendoroid-like feeling! ♪
Plus, he also comes with this iconic Pokémon!
Mewtwo!
The design has been carefully altered in order to both preserve the unique form of Mewtwo’s body while also matching the size and proportions to look good when displayed together with the Nendoroid!
The legs are attached with a ball joint, the arms have small Nendoroid joints and the chest area is also articulated allowing for all sorts of different poses!!
▲ The tail can also sway from left to right!

The hood part unfortunately can’t be removed, but instead that means that from the back the cute round form of the hood has been faithfully preserved! ♪
▲ The pattern on his outfit also goes all the way around to the back!
This time around we have also included a special drop-kicking lower body part made in the image of the scene where he first meets Yuri! ((´д`●))三((●´д`))

Snow Miku performing dance and prayer dressed as a priestess!
All of her optional parts and face plates were revealed last week together with the opening of the WonHobby site! Tori Bird has also made a video that takes a closer look at the figure!!
Let’s start with a look at the packaging! (っ’ω’)っ))
A clear box covered in snowflakes with a special wrapping in the centre!! The red and white design with the decorative cord make for a very elegant package!
This is how the packaging looks from the back! ♪
A couple of posing examples together with an explanation about Snow Miku!
————————————————–
Snow Miku is a character designed to enliven the Winter of Hokkaido. She was originally created due to a snow sculpture of Hatsune Miku made at the 2010 Sapporo Snow Festival, and has been a part of the ‘SNOW MIKU’ festival in Hokkaido every year since. The 2018 theme for Snow Miku is ‘Animals of the Winter Hokkaido’.
————————————————–
The design this time around was based on this illustration by Taichadon! The illustration also features on the back of the packaging! ε-(o´ω｀o)
It’s quite a different style of packaging to standard Nendoroids! ☆
Remove the center label to reveal Miku covered in snowflakes!
As you can see there are all sorts of optional parts! The blister pack comes with two different layers in order to fit them all in! ♥
▲ The torii archway and paved road really stand out!
These two parts can be placed together to make a rather large display base like so! (*´ｪ`*)
The snow parts along the edges can be removed or moved into any position you like! ♪
As she comes with a broom you can even pose her sweeping away some of the snow! (●‘∀‘●)ﾉ”
As you may or may not have noticed, she also comes with a rather special round base that allows her to easily be displayed on this paved area! ☆
Using this base you can pose with in all sorts of poses without ruining the atmosphere with a full-sized Nendoroid base!
As with most Miku’s you can balance the Nendoroid on her hair, but I would recommend you make use of the base both to keep your figure safe as well as have a more dynamic and stable pose!(∩・∀・)∩
The sleeves of her outfit are based on the appearance of a red-crowned crane, the Hokkaido animal that this design was based around! ☆
As usual, Rabbit Yukine is also included to be posed together with her!
Note the iconic coloring of his ears…
… and the rather warm looking cape he is wearing!
He also comes with an alternate sitting body for different poses! Miku herself also comes with many more other parts that bring out the “priestess” side of her design, including a cypress stand, kagura bell and folding fan! The bell has real ribbons tied along the end for all sorts of posing options!
She also comes with a crane made from ice!! (｀・ω・´)ゞ
Obviously it’s not really made from ice, but makes use of a translucent material to capture that icy appearance! Even though it is even smaller than Rabbit Yukine, the attention to detail is lovely! ♪
You can even pose Snow Miku holding the crane like this! Simply find the pose that you think suits her the best!!
Be sure to add the 2018 Snow Miku to your collection! Nendoroid Snow Miku: Crane Priestess Ver.!☆

Hello everyone! Chan-shuu (@gscs_hirase) from the GSC planning team here!
The original Japanese version of this blog was released on Nagisa’s birthday, the 24th December 2017! The translated version is a little late, but…
☆．。．:*･ﾟHAPPYBELATED BIRTHDAY! (*≧∀≦*)．☆．。．:*･ﾟ
Today I’m going to take a closer look at the Nendoroid in celebration!!!
From the masterpiece romance visual novel “CLANNAD” comes a Nendoroid of the main heroine, Nagisa Furukawa! She comes with three face plates including a gentle standard expression, a bashful embarrassed expression and a heart-warming smile.
Optional parts include the green dango from the great dango family as well as some anpan and the amazing rainbow bread from her family’s bakery! Recreate your favorite scenes from the game and enjoy the adorable Nagisa by your side whenever you like!
“If it’s possible… I’d like to remake the Drama Club.”
From perhaps the most well-known of all the games made by Key, “CLANNAD”, comes a Nendoroid of the heroine, Nagisa Furukawa!! Ever since I joined Good Smile Company many years back I’ve always hoped I’d one day get the chance to create a Nendoroid of Nagisa… I’m so happy that the day has finally come!! ★
▼This is how she looks from the back!
▲Note the slight waving look of her hair!
The slight wavy look in her hair is actually included in the sculpt to capture her original standing illustration from the game as faithfully as possible! If you look close you’ll also see the red hairpin at the side!
▼Her iconic sticking-up hair…
▲…together with a slightly bashful expression!
Her eyebrows are bent slightly downward look but her eyes have a bit of an upward gaze for a very adorable look! Her unique hairstyle has also been faithfully captured, and the sticking-up parts of her hair are attached with a joint allowing them to be moved around for different nuances!
▼Onto her optional parts!
▲ Anpan!
Note the detail of the anpan, including the packet it is in as well as the little poppy seeds sprinkled on top!
▼She also comes with Rainbow Bread!
▲A Rainbowforyou!
The mysterious bread baked by Nagisa’s mother Sanae is included with the Nendoroid!! The bread makes use of a metallic green base with multiple layers of different colors on top to recreate the rainbow effect! Note that the rainbow effect may differ slightly on each product, but we will do our best to keep them as faithful to the prototype as possible! (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧
▼ A school bag and smiling parts! (*^ ^*)
▲ She also comes with special hand parts to hold her bag with two hands!
This pose is intended to recreate the opening theme scene from the second season of the anime! She only appeared like this for a second in the opening theme, but the pose was so iconic to me that I simply had to include it as a part of the Nendoroid!
▼ “Shall I take you there?”
▲“The place that will make your wishes come true…”
This right arm and hand part are included as separate parts to recreate the pose where she invites the main character with her!
▼ Plus one item that always comes to mind with Nagisa.. .
▲The Great Dango Family! (・ω・＊)
This green version is included with the Nendoroid to display with her!
▼She also comes with hands to hold it!
The cute round form and eyes are so simple and yet so cute! (*´ー｀*)
You might think that it’s not much of a “Great” family when there is only one dango, but I have some good news for you!
Orders from the GOODSMILE ONLINE SHOP will also include a red and yellow dango as well!! This allows for a much larger family of dango to display with her! Be sure to consider it when preordering! (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧
▼ As a side note, the underside of the dango…
▲Is slightly indented! (:3 」∠ )_
This means that you can display the dango piled up on top of each other!! ♪
As a side note, the background I used for most of the photos above…
Is this Dioramansion 150: Cherry Blossom Road from PLM! It is also currently up for preorder, so if you are looking for a nice background for displays or photography I highly recommend it! (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧
Anyway, that’s all from me! I hope to see you all again soon!! (・ω・)ノ
Today I’m going to be taking a look at… Nendoroid Kyouko Sakura: Maiko Ver.!
From “Puella Magi Madoka Magica” comes a Nendoroid of Kyouko Sakura dressed in a refreshing Maiko outfit. She comes with two face plates including a smiling face and a face with closed eyes, and she also comes with a drawstring bag to display with her!
Interchangeable parts to pose her sitting are included, which can be used together with the closed eyes to create an elegant bowing pose. Be sure to display her with the other characters in the Puella Magi Madoka Magica Maiko series and create all sorts of different situations in Nendoroid size!
Kyouko Sakura is rejoining the Nendoroids dressed as a maiko!
Kyouko is joining the Nendoroids once again, this time wearing a Maiko’s outfit featuring morning glory patterns!!
Most Good Smile Company products are made to order, so if you want to be sure that you get your hands on them preordering is always the safest bet! Make sure you don’t miss out! (∩・∀・)∩
Today I’m going to be taking a look at… Nendoroid Klaus V Reinherz!
From the anime series Blood Blockade Battlefront & Beyond comes a Nendoroid of the leader of Libra and user of the Brain Grid Blood Battle Technique, Klaus V Reinherz! He comes with three face plates including a standard masculine expression, an intimidating combat expression as well as a calm expression for more gentle poses.
He comes with a knuckle guard and hand parts wearing gloves allowing you to easily pose him in combat scenes. Other optional parts include his business card, a donut and a brown paper bag. He also comes with a clear plate with text based on his character introduction which can be placed in front of him to capture the atmosphere from the series! Be sure to display him with the previously released Nendoroid Leonardo Watch and recreate your favorite scenes from the series!
“Onward!! Let’s start by saving the world!”
The third son of the Reinherz household and leader of the secret organization Libra, Klaus V Reinherz is joining the Nendoroid series!!
His iconic hairstyle and fangs have been shrunk down to Nendoroid size and both look so adorable!!! Plus, even though his build has been adjusted to suit the Nendoroid design, he still keeps that big and bulky look from the series!!
He also looks awesome from the back!
The cross-shaped knuckle guard that is needed to pose Klaus in combat scenes has been faithfully included, and a gloved hand is also included to faithfully capture his fighting style!!
Just like the previously released Nendoroid Leonardo Watch, he also comes with a character introduction plate which can be placed in front of him like this to capture his introduction scene from the series!
Moving onto his 2nd face plate, we have a vigorous combat expression!
His strong will to protect his friends and the world is really captured in this expression!
His hips feature a ball joint allowing the hips to be displayed slightly forward or bent which allows for much more dynamic action scenes! ★
The open mouth of this face plate means you get a nice close look at his adorable teeth and fangs!!
Anyway, moving on to his third face plate we have a calmer expression for those more everyday scenes!! (*´꒳`*)
The sharp white eyes of this expression both capture Klaus perfectly and suit the Nendoroid design so nicely!! The mouth on this expression is also straighter on this face plate compared to his standard expression! ♡
In his hand, he holds his business card!! ヽ(ﾟ∀ﾟヽ 三 ﾉﾟ∀ﾟ)ﾉ
▲ With this he can introduce his “Secret Organization” whenever needed!
In addition, he also comes with a paper bag and donut, which is perfect for recreating a scene together with Nendoroid Leonardo Watch!☆
Most Nendoroids stand around 100mm in height, but Klaus has been adjusted to stand around 10mm in height to capture his height difference between the other characters!
You’ll notice that he also comes with non-transparent glasses which can be used with any of the face plates for a rather different look!
Here is the combat expression with the alternate glasses! (●‘∀‘●)
Be sure to try all sorts of different combinations once the adorable leader of Libra joins your collection!! ( ･ㅂ･)و ̑̑ Nendoroid Klaus V Reinherz!

We’re reaching the end of the year, which means it is almost time for GSC to start the big end-of-year clean up around the offices. I can’t say I’m looking forward to it…
Anyway, today I’m going to be taking a look at… Nendoroid Abukuma Kai-II!☆
From the popular browser game “Kantai Collection -KanColle-” comes a Nendoroid of the upgraded version of the Nagara-class light cruiser, Abukuma Kai-II! She comes with three face plates including a standard expression, a half-damaged expression as well as a flustered expression. She comes with turret firing and torpedo effects, as well as a water skiing effect parts to display her maneuvering along the seas!
A miniature Daihatsu landing craft is included together with beach parts to display it on and a miniature Kouhyouteki submarine with water effect parts are also included allowing you to really bring out the KanColle world in your collection! The ship parts are also highly detailed, and the part attached to her arm can even slide out! Be sure to add the easy-to-use light cruiser to your fleet!
“Nendoroid Abukuma, ready to meet your expectations!”
The upgraded version of the sixth Nagara-class light cruiser, Abukuma Kai-II is joining the Nendoroid KanColle Fleet! The cute school uniform-esque outfit complete with a ribbon on her chest has been faithfully converted into Nendoroid size for Admirals around the world to enjoy in their collection!! ♪
Her characteristic hairstyle has also been shrunk into Nendoroid proportions, but looks just as adorable as ever! Note that the left and right sides are slightly different, just like in her illustration! (｡･ω･)ﾉﾞ
In addition, the twintails are attached with a ball joint allowing them to be moved around to match various different poses!
Optional parts include a Kouhyouteki submarine with water effect parts to display her sneaking up on the enemy!! ★
▲ Her standard expression is so cool and confident!! (・∀・)ｲｲ!!
Moving on to her second face plate, we have a pained expression based on her half-damaged expression!!
In addition, she also of course comes with the standard turret firing effect parts as well as torpedo firing effect parts allowing for amazing battle scenes!!!
But that’s not all!!
This time around we also decided to include water skiing effect parts which allow you to display her as if she was gliding along the ocean at high speeds!! ♪
Moving onto her third face plate…
“Everyone, follow my lead!!”
“Noooo!! I said follow MY lead!!”
A flustered expression made in the image of the above line!!! You can just imagine her cute voice looking at this face!!
In addition, she comes with a Daihatsu landing craft part and a beach part to display it landing!! ♪
▲ You can just imagine the little KanColle helpers on the landing craft!
As you may have noticed, the arm ship parts slide out like so! ☆
▲It’s a small gimmick, but it’s a lot of fun!
The shore part included for the landing craft is also nicely detailed!
▲ It attaches onto one of the corners of the Nendoroid base!
