Good Smile Company has announced the opening of pre-orders for two highly anticipated figures from the popular game Baldur’s Gate 3: the Astarion Nendoroid and The Emperor Pop Up Parade Special figure. These collectibles cater to both Japanese and US markets, offering fans of the franchise a chance to expand their collections.
Release Details and Pricing
The Emperor Pop Up Parade figure will be available first, scheduled for release in Japan in January 2026 with a price tag of ￥13, 000. It will subsequently launch in the US in Q2 2026 for $83.99. Meanwhile, the Astarion Nendoroid is set to be priced at ￥6, 600 for its Japanese release in February 2026, followed by its US debut in Q3 2026 at $43.99. Notably, a special bonus available exclusively through the Good Smile Company Store includes an additional black stand adorned with a golden reference to the game.
Astarion Nendoroid Features
The Astarion Nendoroid is designed with intricate details and comes with a variety of accessories and interchangeable face plates drawn from his character in Baldur’s Gate 3. Notable features include a small sign stating, “Astarion approves, ” which cleverly nods to the in-game relationship dynamics. Additionally, his three facial expressions capture a range of his persona: a charming smile, a cunning smirk, and a playful depiction with blood on his mouth, showcasing his vampiric nature. Complementing these expressions are his signature Rhapsody dagger and a glass identified as “bloody good wine” by Good Smile Company.
Here are some visuals of the Astarion Nendoroid:
The Emperor Pop Up Parade SP Figure
The Emperor Pop Up Parade SP figure portrays the enigmatic Mind Flayer, a significant character within the game’s narrative. Although figures in the Pop Up Parade line are generally more budget-friendly, this version belongs to the “higher SP tier, ”which emphasizes greater detail and stature, measuring over 8.5 inches (220mm) in height. However, prospective buyers should note that this figure does not include any additional accessories for diverse poses.
