Yuri!!! on Ice's Yūri Katsuki Nendoroid Figure Unveiled
posted on by Jennifer Sherman
Orange Rouge unveiled its Yūri Katsuki Nendoroid figure on Wednesday. The company held a live streaming event to showcase the figure.
This tiny version of anime fans' favorite fictional figure skater includes two faces and hairstyles to highlight Yūri's dorky and cool sides.
The figure's accessories include Yūri's trademark blue-rimmed glasses, his cell phone with a poodle case, and his favorite food: katsudon (pork cutlet bowl).
The Nendoroid went on sale on Friday for 4,500 yen (about US$40). People who purchase the figure through Good Smile Company Online Shop will receive a Yūri rubber strap. The preorder period will close on March 15, and the figure is slated to ship on July.
Orange Rouge has yet to reveal details of its planned Victor Nikiforov Nendoroid. The Victor figure is also slated to ship in July, and Good Smile Company Online Shop is already offering a folding mirror with the Nendoroid design for 864 yen (US$8). The mirror is slated to ship in March.
Will Yuri "Yurio" Plisetsky get the Nendoroid treatment next?
