Good Smile Company opened pre-orders for a new Nendoroid modeled after Ling Xiaoyu from Tekken 8. People residing in the U.S. and Canada can place their orders on Good Smile Online Shop U.S. for $43.99. Those who live elsewhere worldwide can instead head to the Japanese international web store, where the chibi action figure is priced at ¥6,900 / €45.90. The figure will be available worldwide in the latter half of 2024.
The Nendoroid will contain multiple facial expression plates ranging from a normal smile to a serious face. Xiaoyu’s set will also come with an effect sheet that lets the owner emulate her attack effects in the fighting game.

Good Smile Company will also include a “You Win” screen effect as an exclusive bonus to people who place orders for the Nendoroid on the Japanese or American Good Smile Online Shop. Xiaoyu’s winking victory face plate shown in this picture will be already included in the regular set.

Even though Xiaoyu has been a mainstay character in the series since Tekken 3 in 1997, Good Smile Company will base this Nendoroid on her latest appearance in Tekken 8. It had even teased the figure in September 2023, long before Bandai Namco released the actual fighting game on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and PC in late January 2024.
Good Smile Company will close pre-orders for the Tekken 8 Ling Xiaoyu Nendoroid on April 4, 2024. It will ship the finished figures to Japan in July 2024 and North America in Q4 2024.
