UpdateNendoroid Mio Honda
Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)
The weather keeps jumping from hot to cold and back to hot again so many people are getting sick! Everyone be sure to take care of your heath when the weather is like this!
Anyway, today Im going to be taking a look at
Nendoroid Mio Honda!
Chanmio!! (´□`。From the popular anime series THE IDOLM@STER CINDERELLA GIRLS comes a Nendoroid of Mio Honda wearing her school uniform and hoodie! She comes with three expression parts including her standard cute smiling expression, a playful winking expression as well as a high-spirited smile filled with energy!
The backpack she uses as a school bag is also included allowing you to recreate various scenes from the series. Be sure to display her with the previously announced Nendoroid Rin Shibuya and Nendoroid Uzuki Shimamura to complete the New Generations unit!
The naturally cheerful and energetic idol who sets the mood for the New Generations girls! Mio Honda is joining the Nendoroids!! ☆
She is wearing her lovely pink hoodie over her standard school uniform making for a rather different outfit to the other two New Generations Nendoroids! The smile on her face, short spiky hair and friendly eyes all look lovely minimized into Nendoroid size! Her personality is preserved so nicely! (。・ω・ノ゙
Lets take a look from the back
! Σ(・ω・ノノ!
Ooh! While Shiburin and Shimamuu came with their school bags, Chanmio uses a backpack for school so that was included! The backpack connects into where the stand would normally connect, and then the stand can be connected into the backpack! Obviously this means that it can also easily be removed!
△ This pose makes her looks really accomplished!
She not only looks really cute, but also ready for anything!
This also means that
All three of the New Generations girls have joined the Nendoroids!
△ Theyre both currently in development, so I could only show them from the back!
------
As you may have noticed from the last photo, her second expression is a lovely winking expression! It has both a friendly and a charming touch to it, that really shows off Chanmios charms! (*´Д`=з
Plus she comes with arm parts to display with holding her hands behind her back!
※ The indented part of the arm is to prevent the arm from getting in the way of the stand.
Im sure they can be combined with other arm parts for a number of different posing options as well! ☆
Moving onto her third expression
Yahoooooo!!! (●´ω`●
Just look at those pearly white teeth! This is what you call a huge smile!! Just looking at her makes me feel all happy inside as well! There is definitely no better expression for Chanmio than a huge smile! It just suits her too well! ☆
By the way! Dont forget that Max Factory has also announced a figma Mio Honda!

Nendoroid Kazuki Kazami
Hello everyone, Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)
I must admit I have no useful survival skills. I need to learn something in case something happens one day! Anyway, today Im going to be taking a look at
Nendoroid Kazuki Kazami!
Kazukiiiiiiii!! (´□`。From the popular anime series The Fruit of Grisaia comes a Nendoroid of the reliable, talented elder sister of the main character Kazuki Kazami! She comes with three expressions based on the original illustrations from the game this includes her standard calm and composed smile, a more serious glaring expression as well as an embarrassed expression with rosy cheeks.
Optional parts include an arm part in a sling, her mechanical false hand, the kitchen knife she uses as a weapon and even the mysterious soup that fans are sure to remember from the series! Enjoy the mysterious genius by your side in Nendoroid size!
The elder sister of the main character from The Fruit of Grisaia, who is also a close friend of the main heroine, Amane Suou! Kazuki Kazami is joining the Nendoroids! Her long, soft looking hair and red eyes as well as the Takizono Private Academy uniform have all been faithfully included on the Nendoroid!♥︎
I never expected this story to go the way it did!! Make sure you try it!!
Lets take a look at how she looks from the back!
Her lovely silver hair with the single strand sticking out on the side has been faithfully shrunk into Nendoroid size! (。・ω・ノ゙
The hair parts are separated at the back to allow the stand to be connected easily into her back without ruining the hair with a hole!
Plus, she also comes with a right arm and left hand part that allow you to take this classic pose! (σ・∀・σ
△ The reliable elder sister pose!
Moving onto her optional parts, her second expression is
An embarrassed expression!
Oooooooooooohhh!! (/ω\
Made in the image of the line,
Because, Kazuki I love you the most.
The slightly bewildered look on her face makes for a slightly different embarrassed expression to most! The fact that shes normally such a down-to-earth girl makes it all the more enjoyable!! Delicious!!
However as Im sure some fans would have noticed! Something rather important is in fact missing from this scene! Her hand should in fact be in a sling!!
The sling is in fact included, but I was saving it for this expression!!
The Deer Soup Scene!!
As the scene was so popular we had to include parts that allowed you to recreate it as a Nendoroid! Amanes soup is included along with this sharp, glaring expression!
Even the inside of the soup bowl has been detailed !
You can clearly see the different ingredients in the soup! From some leafy greens to some meaty-colored bits! (°Д°;≡°Д°;
There are still more poses I want to combine with the sling though!
A kitchen knife is included!
Yet another really memorable item from the series! The sharp expression here makes her look ready for a fight, and confident she wont lose to anyone!!
Plus
Im sure many fans will recognise this part!!
It has also been faithfully included with the Nendoroid!! ヽ(*・ω・人(・ω・*)ノ
Got my falcom petites:
Don't know if I'd buy anymore though, twice as small as a nendo, and thrice as fiddly...
Round two begins:
AND also just announced:
AND AND more boys nendos incoming:
Hell, just screw it, GSC announces a new boys figures (scaled and nendos) division
Not sure if I want to buy Shokudaikiri since he's not really a favorite. His faceplates and accessories might change my mind though.Round two begins:

The colorful outfit based on various different uniforms is the sparking cyalume code of the Fortune Party brand. Be sure to display and switch outfits with the other member of Dressing Pafé as well as the members of SoLaMi♡SMILE! ♪
Following on from Shion Todo, the other two members of Dressing Pafé are joining the Nendoroid Co-de series! Their outfit has a bit of a sailor uniform look to it, and while they are very similar, the subtle differences between the two have been faithfully included!
As theyre twins, we also decided to do their frills and hair styles using 3D sculpting ensuring symmetry between the two!
The 3D sculpting was done by GSCs Iguchi, the same skilled hands behind Nendoroids such as Honoka Kosaka! By the way, the choice to use 3D sculpting or standard sculpting is decided through a number of different factors! A lot of the time certain smaller parts or accessories are made in 3D and the rest is a standard sculpt! (・∀・
Anyway, lets take a look from the back! ★
he frills on their skirts are so cute!!
I also love the bunched up look between the skirt and the top!
All Dressing Pafé members together!

Is Fight Club Mako going to be GSC exclusive?
I don't buy many Nendos, but I need that figure in any form it's available.
Hey stranger.
Yep, she's Summer WonFes exclusive.
Is Fight Club Mako going to be GSC exclusive?
I don't buy many Nendos, but I need that figure in any form it's available.
I want to see Marth already.;.; Probably be at the wonder fest. I hope it doesn't take him a while to come out unlike a certain female figma (who got delayed again recently to Aug), but then again it a nendo, so might not have as much issues.
Yeah that second Lucina delay sucks, but at least it opened up a window for more people to order her. I really want to see Marth too. I like some of the designs of some of the characters from that browser game I think it is? But I'm unfamiliar with those characters.
Also *sigh* I look at the list of all the Nendos being brought to AX and I so wish I could go! So many OOP figures at actual MSRP... Would've cleared up a lot off my wishlist I hate how I only started collecting GSC stuff last year :/
Oh, just to show off what's GSC selling at AX:
I already got charged by GSC for Nendoroid Re-class. Man, still the better part of a month away and they takin' dat money.
I got charged for the 2015 Snow Miku Nendo+Figma. Do they ship early or something or just charge early?
Charge early, from my experience. Probably to weed out the CC payments that get declined.
Oh, just to show off what's GSC selling at AX:
Not bad here.
Not bad here.
Which Miku is this for?
It for the Miku Expo in Shanghai, but she will aslo be up on the GSC online store it sounds like.
It for the Miku Expo in Shanghai, but she will aslo be up on the GSC online store it sounds like.
So think at AX, I just try to stick with either 2 figures or more likely 1 figure and either the GSC or nendo shirt, and course try to come in early on day 1 heh.
If getting just one, I aim at getting Snow Miku 14 first over Fight Club Mako, cause least with Mako I can just order her online then later in the month, but she be second. Otherwise if either of those are gone, then well maybe I check out nendo Ryuko, Batman, or Figma Kaga.
I just really don't want to spend too much lol, especially at one point, which is why I want to limit myself to 2 things for GSC.XD I don't know, man it going to be crazy when I try to get there lol. I probably be at the point of chopping off figures from my want list again.
It for the Miku Expo in Shanghai, but she will aslo be up on the GSC online store it sounds like.
Mario & Luigi Nendos VS. Mario & Luigi S.H. Figuarts, which ones are better quality in terms of likeness and the quality of the figures themselves?
