Bandai’s Tamashii Nations announced that a NieR: Automata 2B SH Figuarts figure is on the way, and 9S will eventually follow her. Pre-orders already opened for her in Japan ahead of her January 2024 launch. She will eventually appear worldwide as well, though the announcement tweets didn’t offer a release window.
The Japanese announcement offered a few more details. The figure will cost 8,000円/$56. She is based on her NieR: Automata Ver1.1a anime appearance. There will be multiple face options. The first photos seem to show one with her “blindfold” and three without. The three without have a neutral expression with open eyes, closed eyes and a small smile, and open eyes with a shouting expression. She’ll also come with a Virtuous Contract sword she can wield and Pod 042.
Here’s a gallery showing off the 2B SH Figuarts NieR: Automata figure.
