Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)
Kirby was easily one of my favorite characters in Super Smash Bros! I was always really good at killing myself!!
Anyway, today I’m going to be taking a look at…
Nendoroid Kirby!☆
| From the popular game series ‘Kirby’s Dream Land’ comes a Nendoroid of Kirby himself! The Nendoroid makes use of a number of magnets for posing, making his movements smooth, natural and easy to pose!
He also comes with four different expressions parts including his standard smiling face, a more serious face, an expression with his mouth wide open to display his using the inhaling ability as well as an expanded expression to show him filled up after inhaling!
A collection of optional parts are also included, such as parts that allow you to display him using the Copy Abilities ‘Sword’, ‘Fire’ and ‘Star Rod’. All sorts of optional parts to recreate your favorite scenes from the game in Nendoroid size! |
／Poyo~!＼
The simple yet adorable round pink form of Dream Land’s Kirby is joining the Nendoroid series!!
It’s like a little pink ball of fluff with little red feet that fits nearly into the size of your palm! Everything that makes Kirby himself has been faithfully kept in place!! Even from the back his lovely rounded form looks perfect and even has a little spot for a Nendoroid stand to connect in! (・∀・)
His arms and legs are connected with magnets and the inside of the body is filled with iron allowing them to be connected all over the body!
By using magnets to connect his arms and legs you can move them all around the body for fun and interesting poses while still keeping his characteristic round appearance! The areas around his eyes and mouth don’t allow the hands and legs to be connected, but you can attach them anywhere else on the body! ★
He also comes with a number of optional parts and expressions and the combination of these parts and the movable arms and legs allow for all sorts of poses from the game! Let’s see what kind of scenes we can recreate!! (*´Д｀)=з
– Inhaling Expression –
Recreate Kirby’s signature ability to inhale things and enemies to copy their abilities!!
It simply would not be Kirby without including this expression! The mouth is even curved inward to really make it look like things can be sucked inside!!!
△ You won’t get any special powers by inhaling me, Kirby!!
– Expanded Expression –
*nom nom* (๑´H`๑) *nom nom*
This is for when he sucks something in and keeps it there!!
The inhaling expression was really cute, but I think the puffy look of this expression is even cuter to me!! ♥︎ As he is a PVC figure he is obviously made from solid plastic, yet somehow when I look at this round puffy form I can’t help but think he’ll be soft to the touch when I press my finger into him!!
The way I’ve posed his arms and legs in the last two photos shows you can pose him jumping through the air with ease as well! It can also be seen as hovering from Super Smash Bros! By the way, the expressions are swapped out by replacing the front half of his face! The back half stays the same! It’s kind of like a capsule toy that opens up in the middle! (｀・ω・´)ゞ
– Serious Expression + Sword –
The ‘Sword’ ability that gives Kirby a fighting chance!
Together with the confident looking expression on his face he really looks ready for a fight now!! Not to mention that the cute green hat with a yellow pompom on the end is also included – it also attaches securely by the magnets!! ♪
– Serious Expression + Fire –
Kirby can also fight with flames!!
When he inhales an enemy that uses fire attacks he can copy the ability which can be used for all sorts of things!! ★
The flame effect parts even come with their own little stand!!
This allows you to match the height of the flame to whatever height Kirby’s mouth is at!! ヽ(*・ω・)人(・ω・*)ノ
The flame crown on his head also makes use of some translucent parts that make the flames look really pretty and wavy all the way up to the top!! ε=(｡・д・｡)
△These flame crown also connects to the body with magnets!
– Smiling Expression + Star Rod –
The rod that powers the Fountain of Dreams!
A key item seen in many of the titles in the series!! With a shiny look to the star on top and the candy cane-like red and white rod… it really looks like it has jumped right out of the game!! It also looks kind of tasty!! (/ω＼)
By the way, he comes with an alternate hand that has a little hole in it that allows him to hold items like so! (‘-‘*)(,_,*)(‘-‘*)(,_,*)
△ The sword is held in the same way!
As you can see, not only do you get the adorable Kirby in Nendoroid size… you can also recreate all sorts of his Copy Abilities which are all so cute as well!! (´□｀｡)
It really is as if he just jumped out the game!! Be sure to add the adorable Kirby to your collection! ♡
Head on an adventure together with a cute ball of pink!
