Good Smile Releasing Strangely Adorable Kratos Nendoroid

Good Smile Releasing Strangely Adorable Kratos Nendoroid

Nendoroid, a line of collectible figures that are small, cute, and have interchangeable parts, is introducing an unexpected new character to its line of anime and video game-themed figures. That’s Kratos, from the God of War series and specifically the latest God of War , which just came out this month. The figure will drop in October 2018.

Kratos is not a cute character by any stretch of the imagination, but the Nendoroid version tries as hard as it can. He comes with a couple variation of his angry face, his axe and shield, some extra hands, and a stand. While the figure was announced today, it also came with the pre-order floodgates opening, which can be done through various toy sites, including Good Smile’s official site (which does have an English view). Kratos will cost about $50, which is the standard price for the average Nendoroid.

Nendoroids have grown in popularity lately, and have been steadily incorporating licenses from outside of Japan. For example, we’ve seen figures from series such as Uncharted , The Witcher , and Overwatch . Kratos is certainly a surprise, but as God of War was practically guaranteed to be a big seller, it makes sense that the merchandising is going to be all over the map.
