Persona 5 - Shujinkou - Nendoroid (Good Smile Company)

Don't stop here please, make the rest of the team too.

I hope they make all of them.

kojuuro (4 dagar sedan) #38577295I completely agree that there's high demand for Joker, and I'm sure that GSC knows this too since they also keep announcing more P5 related figures.
I don't claim to know GSC's business practices, but something to take into account is this: Joker isn't some sort of "waifu of the cour", and people will buy him regardless of when he's released. For example, unlike ITEM #740120, who's anime is only airing this cour, was just announced this wonfes, and now up for preorder, Joker's popularity will last way longer than the ending of the anime. Heck, he's been very popular for close to 2 years now.
To me, in the short term it makes sense that GSC would want to make as quick of a buck as they can on current popular characters (because as you said, anime hype is real), but because of this, it's really unfortunate that Joker has to be pushed back slightly.
While it's frustrating to see other characters being released first (especially since it seems like you're Joker's no.1 fan), he will come, and we can all rejoice when we can finally order him.
Where do i go to become this calm and understanding about this nendo.

Maybe this is why? Put the nendoroids up where the popularity may die out after the anime. That way they'll sell better. But delay the ones where the popularity will still be there.

I do hope they'll put him up for pre-order soon. I really want to see everything he comes with ;-;

Kiz-xo (5 dagar sedan) #38562263I also understand this, but like theres no excuse. They announced him at winter wonfes, then proceeded to finish and place up a tonne of orders that were announced at and AFTER wonfes. then started putting up orders announced at summer wonfes. It sucks that people get stuff within days after wonfes but they're taking their sweet ass time on Joker. >:l its not like the demand is low for him

keitaleila (6 dagar sedan) #38535616I know, I know, I understand that.kojuuro (6 dagar sedan) #38535567It's been less than 2 weeks since wonfes, so I'd hardly call this taking forever.... if they released everything they announced at once, people would be less likely to impulse buy him. It's only a matter of time until he comes out anyways.

I know, I know, I understand that.

keitaleila (6 dagar sedan) #38518427I know right? So many new nendoroids and even P5 figures are going up on pre-order, yet this is left in the dark. This is the only thing I wanted from wonfes and it's taking forever. ;-;It's been less than 2 weeks since wonfes, so I'd hardly call this taking forever.... if they released everything they announced at once, people would be less likely to impulse buy him.

Ifkr. This was my main priority n I'm just sitting here watching everything else go up first while this one isnt even hinted at....

Kiz-xo (8 dagar sedan) #38431481TFW a bunch of stuff from this wonfes are going up for PO but Joker is still left in the dust....

Bby where you @?

Cloudy_Cat (8 dagar sedan) #38445551I don’t really keep track anymore of how long figures take from paint > release because some of the things I’ve been watching have taken over a year or more to even get a prototype, and then even longer to get color, and then even longer to be released. Usually nendoroids aren’t that drawn out, making them less of a wait.
Nendoroids are only released after they are colored. Waiting until the next wonfest from prototype to color is pretty normal. I can’t say why they priorotize which figures but I’ve also waited for nendoroids I’ve been excited for this long or longer. I can’t say how long he’ll take to be up for po’s but since he’s painted imo it could be any day or week now.
I hope it's not as long as the detective conan nendoroids
