Touhou Project 3 - Nendoroid

List of Touhou Project Nendoroids (3/4)

#442 Yukari Yakumo

This figurine is the confident mastermind and Reimuphile, legendary interdimensional wanderer Yukari Yakumo put in the uncharacteristically adorable Nendoroid form factor. Despite her young and beautiful appearance Yukari is over a thousand years old which is actually older than the history of Gensokyo, the place where they live. She is an informed thinker, so when she acts one can be sure there is a well-plotted strategy behind it, as her schemes are her primary battlefield by far.

Her ability is the manipulation of boundaries of any kind, so she knows plenty about the Outside World and pretty much everything else, and has helped barrier away Gensōkyō itself. In peaceful times, however, she prefers taking care of her cute shikigami Ran or fencing wits with Reimu Hakurei. Yukari first appears in Touhou Ghostly Dream - Perfect Cherry Blossom which is the seventh official game in the series. Together with Reimu, they go off to find out who is responsible for the fake moon.

Nendoroid Yakumo Yukari	#442
Price	US $54.45
Release Date	May 2015
Sculptor	JUN (E.V.)
Cooperation	Nendoron
Height (approximate)	100 mm (3.94")

Additional Parts

Yukari Yakumo's bundled spare expressions allow her to change her usual smile for a mysterious grin, making her seem like she knows everything even what you are thinking right now. There is also a playful smile as she closes one eye for a winking expression. Her optional parts include a hand fan, an umbrella, and the good old piece of intra-world flotsam, a signpost. Also included are the parts that let the signpost and the Gap Yōkai herself peek through a gap through the unknown. The special piece that allows her to move through the dimensions only shows the top half of her body to make it seem as though she is in the middle of moving.

Purchase Bonus

Ordering from the GOOD SMILE online shop comes with a special Size B3 Poster illustrated by ideolo.

#521 Patchouli Knowledge

This Nendoroid is a rendition of Patchouli Knowledge, the shut-in sorceress and arduous bookworm yōkai of the Scarlet Devil Mansion. She is asthmatic and has a vitamin A deficiency-backed anemia as a result of nearly a century of studies which has, however, made her an astoundingly good mage well-versed in every Element. Introverted and not very outspoken, Pache may or may not be secretly envious of the book borrowing Marisa Kirisame's style.

Patchouli first appears as a boss character who gets in the way of the players trying to go further into the Scarlet Devil Mansion where she resides. In other games, she sometimes appears as a playable character on the rare exception she makes to leave her mansion and investigate strange occurrences.

Nendoroid Patchouli Knowledge - Touhou Project	#521
Price	US $58.34
Release Date	October 2015
Sculptor	JUN (E.V.)
Cooperation	Nendoron
Height (approximate)	100 mm (3.94")

Additional Parts

Patchouli Knowledge's facial expressions are her usual let-me-read expression, a mysterious smile as she looks to one side, and a cute yawn where she closes one eye with her mouth wide open. Some of the additional parts include two versions of a book. One version shows the book open as though she is reading it and the other is a closed book that she is able to hold and be posed with as the bookworm she is. To pair with the book are reading glasses that make her look even more intelligent. There is even a special lower body part to allow Patchouli to sit down as she gets tired easily. Her outfit consists of pink and purple pajama-like clothing that is decorated with many ribbons. Her matching frilly hat also has a moon decorating and can be removed.

#604 Koishi Komeiji

This figurine offers the Nendoroid form of Satori's little sister Koishi Komeiji, the formerly mind-reading girl who closed her third eye. She had found reading people's conscious minds too sad and hateful, with nothing good to be gained from it, so she stopped. That was followed by many unintended effects, including her own complete lack of emotions and consciousness and people's inability to even remember having seen Koishi, unless they had already known Satori and that she has a sister; also exempt from forgetting were little kids, to whom Koishi would in effect become an "imaginary friend". Her deep connection with people's minds around her allows her to impose illusions that are hard to break out of.

Nendoroid: Touhou Project - Koishi Komeiji	#604
Price	US $58.34
Release Date	June 2016
Sculptor	JUN (E.V.)
Cooperation	Nendoron
Height (approximate)	100 mm (3.94")

Additional Parts

Koishi Komeiji's three facial plates feature her usual look when you cannot quite tell what she is thinking of, a wink, and a happy smile. Some parts allow you to recreate her in-game danmaku-shooting pose or the cute one where she makes a heart with her fingers.

Purchase Bonus

Pre-ordering from the GOOD SMILE online shop comes with a special Size B3 Poster illustrated by ideolo as a bonus.
