During Tokyo Game Show 2023, Good Smile Company announced the development of a Tekken 8 Ling Xiaoyu Nendoroid. While it did not announce when the Ling Xiaoyu Nendoroid will be releasing, they did confirm it will be “coming soon.” The prototype of the Ling Xiaoyu Nendoroid will be viewable at the Tekken 8 booth at Tokyo Game Show 2023.
Ling Xiaoyu’s Nendoroid design features her iconic pigtails and her brand new outfit from the upcoming game. It utilizes orange as an accent color rather than a primary color, as seen in her previous designs.
The artwork for the Tekken 8 Ling Xiaoyu Nendoroid can be seen in the announcement post on social media:
