Nendoroid Estelle Bright’s Packaging is Revealed

The package content

Have you been anticipating the release of Nendoroid Estelle Bright from The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky? Well, Falcom has just posted a few pics revealing the content of the lovely Nendoroid, as you can see in the pic above and below.

Fighting a … monster? XD

Nothing seems surprising there, but you may be glad to see that the final production version looks really similar to the prototype – which is a good thing, considering the declining quality control of GSC’s products lately, in my personal opinion. XD

Well, what do you think about it, Nendonesian?

From the popular anime series ‘Persona 4’ comes a Nendoroid of the mysterious Kuma, who lives in the TV World.

A Nendoroid Kuma : Human Ver. is also included as an extra with Kuma, and he can even be placed inside the Kuma Nendoroid to recreate the scene where he climbed out in his birthday suit!
