Good Smile Company will release a Nendoroid of Merlin (Prototype) from Fate/Grand Order Arcade. Pre-orders for her are open until November 11, 2021, and she will cost ¥6,500/$64.99. The Merlin (Prototype) Nendoroid from Fate/Grand Order Arcade will ship out in May 2022 for customers in Japan and July 2022 for those in North America.
Like most Nendoroids, Merlin (Prototype) will come with three face plates. She has a neutral expression, a slightly bigger smile with her mouth open, and a concentrating expression. She will also come with her staff and magic effect parts. Her magic manifests as pink flowers, similar to male Merlin. With a lower body part that has her legs crossed, you will be able to recreate her Noble Phantasm as well.

As her name suggests, this Merlin is from Fate/Prototype. Ayako Kawasumi, who voices the various versions of Artoria, is her voice actress. This is a counterpart to how Takahiro Sakurai, who voices male Merlin, is the actor for Arthur (Prototype). She is only playable in Fate/Grand Order Arcade, and there is no news as to whether or not she will appear in the mobile version of the game.

Other Fate/Grand Order figures from Good Smile Company include one of Katsushika Hokusai (Saber) and Artoria Pendragon (Lily): Festival Portrait Version. These ones are scale figures rather than a Nendoroid, however.
The Merlin (Prototype) Nendoroid from Fate/Grand Order is open for pre-order until November 11, 2021. She has a release window of May 2022 for Japan and July 2022 for North America.
