I have so many figures in my ever expanding collection, I might as well start reviewing some of them on my blog. I just got the Pokemon Center Cynthia Nendoroid from Good Smile. I missed out on the Red Nendoroid, so made sure to get Cynthia before she got too hard to find. Since she is one of the few Nendoroids available in the United States, I just waited for the US version. I bought her from the Pokemon Center on Amazon instead of from the Pokemon Center website for the free two day Prime shipping.

She looks awesome, but doesn’t have as many parts and accessories as most other Nendoroids. She has two faces, a couple extra arms, and one extra leg. The only accessory she comes with to hold is a Pokeball, but she does come with her Garchomp, which more than makes up for the lack of other accessories. It would have been nice if she had one more face, but I’ll probably use the default open-eyed face most of the time anyway.

Garchomp’s arms, legs, and head move to allow him to be posed in different ways. He doesn’t have any extra parts, however. I think it would have been cool if he had an extra head with a different facial expression (maybe a closed mouth), but I guess since he’s considered an accessory for this figure, that might be asking a bit too much.

The paint applications on both figures look great. I didn’t notice any major issues with the paint on either figure. The only slight problem I noticed so far with either figures is that Garchomp’s arm fall off easily when trying to pose him.

The box seems cheaper than the other Nendoroids I have because it lacks a clear plastic window. I’m not sure if that is just how the American versions are made or not, of if it is just this particular figure.

All in all, Cynthia is a worthwhile figure to add to your collection. Just make sure to get her before you’re forced to pay scalper prices! I will most likely get the N Nendoroid when he comes to the US too. I’m still holding out hope that they will rerelease Red due to his popularity. For future Pokemon Nendoroid releases, I’m hoping for Misty, Gym Leader Erika, and Gym Leader Sabrina. Misty with an extra mermaid body would be amazing!
