Good Smile Company has just announced some major pieces of news via nicovideo livestream, with the first being the opening on a new domestic factory within Japan, rather than overseas. Their next announcement was regarding one of the first figures entering production at this factory… The 500th Nendoroid named Nendoroid Sakura Miku: Bloomed in Japan version!
The nendoroid was shown to include three different facial expressions, her iconic flower accessory, a tray with food and drink accessories, and a pair of braided twintail parts.
She is available for preorder now via Good Smile Company’s online shop for 4500 Yen ($38 USD), and can be preordered until December 12th at 9:30 PM JST. The expected shipment period is sometime in March 2015, just in time for the sakura blooming season!
