Diana (and more!) Nendoroid request project
I decided to leave this post until the Lotte Nendoroid was up for pre-order. There was always the chance that they would hint at Diana, or more LWA merch in general, during the Kaho-tan blog reveal; I didnât want to get people riled up over nothing, after all. Now, both the reveal and the opening of the pre-orders have happened and there was no mention or implication that theyâre planning to do more. Itâs time to face the facts: itâs likely that to GSC releasing Akko, Sucy and Lotte means that theyâve âcompletedâ Little Witch Academia; if things remain as they are, itâs very possible that a Diana Nendoroid isnât happening at all. Now, that doesnât mean it wonât happen; it just means that the fans canât simply wait for it and hope for the best. Triggerâs Kill la Kill was a bigger franchise than LWA and it still only got 3 Nendoroids.
If people truly want a Diana Nendoroid to be released, they need to make it clear that there is real demand for it, that Little Witch Academia's wonât be complete with just Akko, Lotte and Sucy, that Diana is necessary. We donât need to stop at Diana, though. There is also Chariot and Amanda and her gang and Croix and even Hannah and Barbara. If you want to simply write in âmore LWA Nendoroids!â or even âmore LWA merchandiseââ Iâm sure that would also be perfectly acceptable. Regardless of what GSC is planning to do, Triggerâs PR manager did say that ideally they would release Nendoroid of all the main witches.
How to request it properly? Itâs extremely simple. Good Smile Companyâs staff says the following: "products are considered for release/re-release when there is enough demandâ and âplease feel free to let us know which products you want to be releases by contacting us at one of our Facebook pages or customer support site.â Pretty straightforward. In order to let them know that there is âenough demandâ for a Diana Nendoroid, we simply need to contact them via their Facebook page or their customer support site.
Iâll talk about the customer support site first. This is the link: https://partner.goodsmile.info/support/eng/inquiry/. All you need to do is fill in the required information, itâs better if you write in your real name and a valid e-mail. In "Inquiry Category" you select "release/re-release" and in "Product Category" you select "Nendoroid". In the large box so you simply write "Please, do a Nendoroid of Diana from Little Witch Academia! And from the rest of the cast, too." Or something along the lines of that, thatâs just example. If you were unable to buy it, you could also add: "A re-release of the Akko Nendoroid would be nice, as well!"
Next comes the Facebook page. Thatâs even more straightforward. All you need to do is send them messages here: https://www.facebook.com/goodsmileenglish/. If youâve used Facebook before, there should be no need for further explanation.
Anyway, thatâs pretty much all I needed to say. Please, if youâre interested in a Diana Nendoroid DO SEND THEM THESE REQUESTS. It takes less than one minute to do it. If youâre interested in more LWA merch, also make sure to request it. If youâre a fan of LWA that isnât planning to buy further merch but got Akko, pre-ordered Sucy or will pre-order Lotte, please do help us by requesting Diana or more LWA stuff in general; Iâm glad you got your favorite character, but you can effortlessly help the rest of the fanbase now!
Iâm sure I donât need to add this, but Iâll do it anyway just in case: DONâT FLAME ANYONE. Lotte and Sucy deserve their Nendoroids, but so does Diana. And everyone else, too.
