But I found some anyway
Good Smile Company’s range of pint-sized Nendoroid figures are well known for their wholesome adorability… But I think this latest effort takes things to a whole new level of cuteness. The intrepid Aloy — protagonist of Guerrilla Games’ acclaimed Horizon franchise — is taking aim at your heart and wallet.
Like the many Nendoroid releases before her, Aloy stands a dinky four inches in height and comes sculpted in high-quality painted PVC plastic. Aloy comes packaged with three faceplates: a sweet grin, a little grumpy roar, and a winking/aiming expression. Aloy comes loaded for bear with her trusty spear, bow & arrow, and even a power-enhancing Focus segment. As a cool little extra, the Aloy Nendoroid also comes with a super-scaled-down version of the reconnaissance machine: The Watcher.
While Nendoroids are well known for their fun detailing and petite nature, Aloy here has really captured my heart, and might be my favorite Nendo since Overwatch‘s Sombra, which debuted way back in 2018. If fancy an Aloy for your very own, then you can pre-order the new Nendoroid over on the official Good Smile Co. website. Aloy will retail for ¥6,500 (or roughly $50 USD), not including shipping or any potential customs charges, and she is expected to ship in October of this year.
Oh, and if you want even more Horizon goodies for your bookshelf, then be sure to check out the recent Horizon Forbidden West set from The LEGO Company, which hit high street shelves just last week.
