03:23 Nendoroid Swacchao!
03:36 HELLO! Figures (Shigeto Koyama designs)

The Good Smile Company had on display some of their chibi style figures at Toy Fair, from video game characters like Mario and Chun Li to hololive vtubers and Vocaloids.

There were 3 lines of chibies including:

  • Nendoroids – interchangeable face plates (with different expressions)
  • Nendoroid Swacchao! – (newer line) all sitting figures, at lower price point
  • HELLO! figures – designed by Shigeto Koyama of Studio Trigger (he’s done work with Hero 6, Panty & Stocking, Rebuild of Evangelion, and so forth.)

Nendoroids come with multiple face plates with different expressions that can be switched. They’re also made at a standard size so you can swap faces between characters. You can imagine Iron Man’s Tony Stark with a bearded face being placed on a Miku character & then pretending Tony is cosplaying at an anime convention. Lots of fun to be had with these.
