River Original Character Nendoroid by Good Smile Arts Shanghai

[c0rpsedemon]

the mdzs manga announcement is a double edged sword bc on one hand i'm so so so so hyped to have a comic-style adaptation that isn't the manhua bc i'm. allergic to the webtoon-esque vertical scroll style + prefer b&w comics to colored ones stylistically. and also japanese manga means maybe japanese anime adaptation which means even more mdzs figures bc the jp figure companies will finally be forced to acknowledge it exists which means maybe we'll get more of characters who aren't wangxian please i beg of you i want lsz at the very least. on the other hand it's big news for the people who watched the jp dub of the donghua w english subs and i absolutely resent that.

[tiptoze]

the only thing that redeems there literally being 0 genshin figure updates despite the fact we have 6 announced figures yet not even a single prototype of one of them is the fact bokumono is getting fucking nendoroid rep tbh

it's being done by gsc shanghai so we'll how the prototypes turn out b4 getting excited but god damn its abt time

My October 2024 toy haul finally got here! I am super happy with the "larger" figures, as well as the rest of the haul. Of course, the Sasuke stuff, as always! However, the Byakuya Figuarts Zero figure, I'm super thrilled I was able to get -- he is a gorgeous figure IRL, my sh1tty photos do him zero justice! I didn't realize the FuRyu Tenitol Sessho would be as large. So, s/h due to those two larger figs, was a bit more than I as hopping to pay this round. Regardless, I am super happy with all these! (:

From far left to bottom right: FuRyu TENITOL InuYasha Sesshomaru Complete Non-Scale Figure; top: Good Smile Arts Shanghai Qset+ Persona 5 Royal P5R Protagonist Complete Non-Scale Figure; BanDai Namco Chibi Masters Sasuke Uchiha Non-Scale Figure; Good Smile Company Hello! Astroy Boy Non-Scale Posable Figure, Bottom; BanDai Figuarts ZERO Byakuya Kuchiki -Thousand-Year Blood War- "Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War" Non-Scale Figure; Banpresto NARUTO VIBRATION STARS -UCHIHA SASUKE- III (Game-prize) Non-Scale Figure; Banpresto Attack on Titan Q posket -Eren Yeager- vol.2 B (Game-prize) Non-Scale Figure; Square Enix Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories Acrylic Stand Card Riku; Bellfine NARUTO Shippuden Acrylic Stand Sasuke Uchiha; Bellfine NARUTO Shippuden Clear File Sasuke Uchiha.

Sesshomaru also turned out beautiful, but I feel his eyes are not as angular, sharp, clean and narrow as in the prototype's. It might be just lense distortion, I couldn't get any decent photo of his face sadly (or from what I saw, I don't plan on unboxing him). I like the matte box, but I wish they would have made the window bigger. He is beautiful nonetheless; the FuRyu NS Sessho was my favorite version, until the GSC PUP. I got the Hobby Max one a few years ago and was supper disappointed with this face. So, I am a bit torn that this one didn't turn out as sharp as the prototype, knowing they did such an amazing job with the tiny Noodle Stopper version. Due to that, I am glad I got another GDToys Demon Dog (realistic-ish-Sessho) head sculpt loose, which I am going to customize to be my custom Alucard (Castlevania) figure. I'll take a million years to complete that, but I at least have a starting point now. (:

The tiny BanDai Chibi Master Sasuke I got from Amzn, from an official GSC dealer, and I also got the Trio-Try-iT Sessho, but I was so dissapointed that the latter's box arrived smashed to bits, I didn't take photos. I don't know what he looks like in person, since I have no plans to unbox it. I lost my chance to get him retail from Japan, so I overpaid for him on Amzn, only to receive a crushed box... they won't exchange for a new one, just refund me! But I want Sessho! T__T The tiny Giyu gashapon I got from eBay, in his clear capsule with his offiical insert... might just be the tiniest Giyu figure I own so far. LoL!

heLLO to this Hua Cheng scale fig!

GSC Shanghai so quality should be good, but I'm not quite sold on this one yet. Not sure if I love the posing. I'm gonna need to know the size and see a painted prototype + more angles before I make up my mind about this one 🤔

✨F.A.Q.s✨

Q: "Where's the best place to order from?"

This largely depends on where you live and whether or not you want the wall scroll as a pre-order bonus.

For residents of the US (especially those who would like the wall scroll), it would likely be best to order from GSC US. This is because despite it being a bit more costly, you will be paying domestic shipping rates. For residents in Canada, this may also be a viable option, as GSC US does ship there as well. (Unsure of shipping fee, but very likely cheaper than buying through GSC Global).

For those who live elsewhere outside of China, and want the wall scroll, going through GSC Global is best. You could also proxy from Bilibili or GSCS, but it may not be worth the proxy fees.

For those who do not care about the wall scroll, and wish to save some cash, ordering from AmiAmi is a fair bit cheaper. However do note that some shipping methods are currently restricted, though by the time of the figure's release, may be back to normal. US residents, keep in mind that the cheaper price may be offset in the international shipping fee, as the figure is quite large.

Q: "When will I have to pay? Now or later?"

This also depends.

GSC Global takes credit card only, and AmiAmi will invoice you (multiple payment methods available) once your order is ready to ship. They will charge you at the time of shipping, or just shortly before as they prepare to.

GSC US takes multiple methods, but will charge you immediately if you use Paypal/Amazon Pay. They will charge you at the time of shipping if you use credit card.

Bilibili and GSCS require an upfront deposit, and the rest to be paid later.

Q: "Is this price typical for this type of figure."

Yes, it's quite typical. Of course, final judgement on the worth of this is up to the buyer!

Q: "Why is the figure's release date so far away in 2022?"

This is pretty normal for scale figures. Especially since this is a 1/7th figure, it's a bit more complex. (1/8th scale, smaller, are more common.) It's not abnormal to wait a year for a figure's release, nor for it to be delayed, even. Time frames vary a lot in the scale figure collecting community!

Q: "If I miss the pre-order period will I be able to get it later?"

It's hard to say. Sometimes yes, sometimes it's very difficult. It has to do with how much demand there is post-release relative to stock. Once they make the figures, they will not be made continuously. However many they make initially will be all, apart from an unknown quantity of extras. (This can range from a few hundred to thousands, I have no clue.) But basically, once that stock runs out, it will be out of stock permanently. This can take hours to days to years, who knows. Re-releases also only happen in the event of high demand, and are generally few and far between. So you CAN try to get the figure after release, especially if you're lukewarm about it. But if it's something you really want, it's not worth the gamble, in my opinion.

(The pre-order bonus will be unavailable in this case.)

Your best bet post-release would be AmiAmi and other authorized resellers, if GSC itself doesn't have stock.

Q: "If I want to buy from Bilibili or GSC Shanghai, how would I do that?"

You would need to go through a proxy service like SuperBuy, Bhiner, etc. Just keep in mind that the proxy fee will probably offset the slightly lower price.

Q: "Will there be other versions of Xie Lian?"

Probably, but it's hard to say. Depends on popularity!

Q: "Will there be an accompanying Hua Cheng figure?"

Gosh, I sure hope so! :) We must display them together for good fortune and blessings~

[shandian-go]

There's been a post circulating that gsc plagiarized an artist's clothes for the nendo dolls. Just sth to consider if opening a GO for it.

Thanks for the heads up! Seems like Tencent/GS Shanghai is now aware of the issue and I'll wait for their announcement before I decide whether or not to open it
