Premium figurine maker Good Smile Company has confirmed the price and release info for their Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Nia figure, and boy is it a premium price.

While the Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Nia figure is priced at 26,000 yen / $259.99, shipments will go out in Japan sometime in June 2023 – followed by North America in August 2023.

It’s worth noting Good Smile lists this Nia figure on their online store as “limited” in pre-orders, so they might be cutting off orders after a certain amount (you are limited to only 2 per order, if you wanted multiple Nia statues for some reason).

Sculpted by Akimofu and based on the original designs by Masatsugu Saito, the beautiful main character Nia from Xenoblade Chronicles 2 stands at 1/7th scale or 12.2 inches in height. This includes the height reached from her sword, but her ears are quite large too.

SPOILER WARNING – For those who haven’t played the game, the full images of the figure are actually a spoiler, so buyer beware with the information below:

The new Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Nia figure is actually based on her “awakened” form, when it is revealed that she’s actually a “Flesh Eater” blade, and not a human. She later reveals and accepts this as part of her past, and is then used as a blade ally in the game.
