Nendoroid Figures
Calling all Chibi fans! Created by Good Smile Co, the Nendoroid figures series features adorable chibi-style figures from some of the most beloved anime, manga, and video game franchises. With over 1,000 Nendoroids to collect, you will find your favorite character shrunk down and ready to pose and join the Nendoroid generation.
I bet you can't collect just one Nendoroid.
Anime Nendoroid figures measure around 10 cm (or about 3.9 inches), and these Nendoroids have a disproportionate head-to-body size to really up the cute factor.
Each Nendoroid is articulately designed so that you can pose it and recreate several scenes with it. Add extra props, like weapons, outfits, or pets, and you'll find no limit to your imagination.
The Nendoroid community is enormous, mainly because they include interchangeable faceplates so your figure can have multiple expressions. A stand and base will be provided for stability when posing. We're sure you'll love these cute little Nendoroid characters.
The Fascinating History Of Nendoroid Figures
The first Nendoroid figure sold was Neko Arc, from Tsukihime, released in early 2006. The original creator of this figure series was the excellent Tsuyoshi Oda.
Due to its popularity, several people worked on the series called Nendoroid. Because so many people work together on a single Nendoroid, crediting each individual would be impossible, so a collective name is used instead. Over ten people on the Good Smile Company Nendoroid team produce a single Nendoroid figure.
By March 2009, the fantastic Nendoroid series had sold over 1 million units, and the Nendo Petite series had sold over 3 million. The series quickly expanded, and in just four years (July 2010), there were over 100 different Nendoroids characters in production.
Around May 2013, Good Smile Company released its 300th figure in the base series, Hatsune Miku 2.0, a revamped version of the previous best-selling Nendoroid. The box design and method of connecting faceplates were also improved from this release onward. Good Smile Company has released over 1,200 Nendoroids, with many more.
The Nendoroid series has come a long way since its first release in 2006. Today, these figures from Good Smile Company are seen everywhere. From anime conventions to online stores, these figures are still popular and beloved by many. It's a testament to the creativity and quality of these figures that they've become such beloved icons in the anime and manga communities.
