Good Smile currently has Nendoroid Bunny open for preorder for collectors who want a figure tied to one of The First Descendant's most recognizable playable characters rather than a broader game-branded collectible with weaker identity. Confirmed via Good Smile Company's official product page, Nendoroid Bunny is priced at 8,800 JPY with preorders open from July 2, 2026 through August 31, 2026 JST, with shipping listed for January 2027 as of Friday, July 31, 2026.
This is a current official product page, so here is what is actually confirmed.
Good Smile's official listing confirms the following:
That gives Bunny a much stronger source-specific identity than a generic action-game heroine release would have on its own.
Bunny is one of those characters whose popularity does a lot of the work before you even get into sculpt details. For collectors who want one figure from The First Descendant without building a full cast lineup, she is the most natural entry point.
The helmetless head part matters because it gives the figure a second display personality instead of locking collectors into only the more armored default read. For Nendoroids, that kind of variation often makes the difference between a short-term novelty and a figure that stays interesting on the shelf.
For keeping optional head parts and smaller accessories together, an acrylic modular case is a practical choice. For giving Bunny more shelf separation beside other game figures and making Thunder Cage easier to notice, a 4-step acrylic display stand helps stage the figure more clearly.
The preorder window matters because Nendoroid collecting often rewards people who decide during the official order period instead of hoping the aftermarket will stay reasonable. A clear open-and-close date gives buyers time to think, but it also signals that the easiest path to securing the figure is happening now. That is why collectors usually pay attention not only to the character choice but to the exact preorder end date, store bonus, and shipping month all at once.
Nendoroid collectors also judge part value differently than buyers of larger action figures. The question is not whether the box is overloaded with plastic. It is whether the included faces, props, and optional arms meaningfully expand the character's expression range. A single great prop or one unmistakable joke face can often matter more than a long list of minor hand variations. That framing helps explain why some releases feel essential while others feel interchangeable.
Even a compact figure needs a clear display role to stay satisfying after the preorder excitement passes. Collectors usually get the best results when a Nendoroid works as part of a pair, a team, or a tight franchise row instead of being treated as a random desk extra. Planning that role in advance makes it easier to decide whether the figure will actually improve the shelf or just add another small box to the queue.
What makes a preorder worth waiting for is usually not sheer quantity of parts but whether the release captures the exact version of the character that fans picture immediately. When the pose options, expressions, and bonus pieces all reinforce that identity, the wait feels justified. That is the lens that helps collectors separate a fun announcement from a figure that will still feel right when it actually lands months later.
Store bonuses can sound appealing in a listing, but collectors usually feel best about them when the extra item reinforces the character instead of acting like generic filler. A photo card, prop, or alternate expression only adds real value if it makes the release feel more complete or more collectible to the person buying it. Thinking about the bonus that way helps keep the preorder focused on the figure itself rather than on the pressure of missing a limited extra.
Many Nendoroid releases work best when they slot into a visible pair or team rather than being treated as isolated desk decorations. That is because the line's scale and style naturally encourage conversation between figures. When a release strengthens an obvious duo, rival pairing, or cast cluster, the collector often gets more long-term satisfaction from it than from a technically solid figure that has no one meaningful to stand beside.
When a Nendoroid preorder is a strong fit, collectors can usually picture immediately where it belongs and who it should stand beside. That shelf clarity is often a better signal than raw part count because it reflects whether the release will actually stay enjoyable once it arrives. Figures with that kind of obvious placement usually age better than impulse preorders.

This looks like the cleaner current preorder for collectors who want a single The First Descendant figure with the strongest immediate character recognition. If Bunny is the one you would most likely build a game shelf around, this release already has the right mix of recognizability and display variation to justify the preorder.
