Nendoroid Release Schedule for February 2013 (Updated)

Nendoroid Snow Miku: Strawberry White Kimono version

With 6 Nendoroids and 4 Petites scheduled for this month’s release, that numbers seem pale in comparison with recent months’ releases.

That said, I guess the upcoming winter WonFes preparation has taken so much resources off GSC that they even decided to delay some products there – including the much anticipated Nendoroid Iron Man. Hopefully their QC can be improved further by the delay.

Orange Colored Nendoroid More Stands Pop Up for WonFes

Nendoroid More: Clip Stand (Orange)

Nendoroid More stands have been released just a few weeks ago, and now GSC are adding a new color option to the mix: ORANGE.

More fun ways to display your Nendoroids!
These new clip stands bring Nendoroid fans a brand new way of displaying their favorite characters! The clip can be easily attached to the frame of your cabinet or the edge of your laptop, allowing you to display your Nendoroids in places you never even considered using before!

The arm attached to the clip is articulated, allowing you to move it in any direction so that you can place the Nendoroids exactly where you want them! Each stand comes with joints for both Nendoroids and Nendoroid Petites, so you can display any of your favorite characters from either series!

This product was developed by this year’s new employees at Good Smile Company. They have also been running a blog testing the development up until this point, which can be found here: http://ameblo.jp/blog-shinsotsu2012/

Both of these Nendoroid More stands will be priced at 500 Yen each and there will be only 500 pcs available at GSC’s Winter WonFes 2013 booth.

Nendoroid More: Suction Stand (Orange)

More fun ways to display your Nendoroids!
These new clip stands bring Nendoroid fans a brand new way of displaying their favorite characters! Simply stick the suction cup onto a window or wall, and you can display your Nendoroids in places you never even considered using before!

The arm attached to the suction cup is articulated, allowing you to move it in any direction so that you can place the Nendoroids exactly where you want them!

A little note regarding the Nendoroid More is also written in the page. It basically reminds us that the Nendoroid More series is only designed to work with Nendoroids (or Nendoroid Petites) that have a tabbed stand that connects to a hole in the back of the figure, thus it will not support Nendoroids that make use of other stand types.

Nendoroid Maintenance: Box Album

Stack of Nendoroid boxes

There is one common issue plaguing the Nendoroid collectors around the world: space. Yep, with an average release rate of about 7 Nendoroids each month, it is obvious that the Nendoroid boxes are piling up fastly and sucking our precious room space.

So how can we solve this problem? Some folks suggested to fold the Nendoroid boxes, but a Japanese collector Kitsune-mimi pushed that idea even further: turn the boxes into an album! W-w-wha!? ( ゚ Д゚)

Nendoroid Minami Kana is Available for Pre-Order;

Nendoroid Minami Kana

Pardon me to make this post separately, although she is available for pre-order at the same time with the other two, but I have to do it as I have been waiting for this Nendoroid for years! XD

*ahem* Anyway, yes, Nendoroid Minami Kana from Minami-ke is finally announced!

The troublemaker of the Minami household!
The 4th season of the Minamike anime is now airing, and the manga is still being serialized and is just as popular as ever! The Nendoroid series of Minamike is also getting bigger, as Kana Minami, the long awaited troublemaker of the Minami household, is also coming to join the Nendoroid family!

She is wearing her school uniform and also includes a school bag, allowing you to display her on her way to school. She also comes with three different expressions – her standard triumphant expression, a smiling expression and even the realistic expression she sometimes shows in the series!

A small kitchen set is also included to help you recreate even more scenes from the series!

The mischevous Kana will be produced by Gift, scheduled for June 2013 and priced at 3800 Yen.

Nendoroids of Minami-ke

Alongside Kana is Nendoroid Minami Chiaki who is also getting a re-release at the same month, and Nendoroid Minami Haruka who will also be announced shortly.

So … are you getting these Nendoroids from Minami family?

Psst … the sculptor for Nendoroid Minami Kana and Haruka is Yoshio (LAUGH) who, if I am not mistaken, has also made the garage kit of Nendoroid Ayanami Rei. Will we also see her soon? XD
