Good Smile Company opens orders for Nendoroid of Danganronpa’s Hajime Hinata
Good Smile Company has opened pre-orders for a new figure of Hajime Hinata, the protagonist of the popular game Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair.
The new product brings the character to life in the style of the company’s “Nendoroid” line of collectible figures, based on his appearance in the Danganronpa 1•2 Reload collection.
Nendoroids are a popular series of chibi-style figures, known for their large heads and smaller, posable bodies, and for including a variety of interchangeable parts.
The Danganronpa series is a line of mystery-adventure visual novels where high school students with “Ultimate” talents are forced into a deadly killing game by the sadistic robotic bear, Monokuma.
Good Smile Company also recently opened pre-orders for a Nendoroid of Danganronpa’s “Ultimate Supreme Leader”, Kokichi Oma.
Hajime Hinata is the main character of the second game, an amnesiac student with the initial title of the “Ultimate ???” who must use his logic to survive the Class Trials.
The new Nendoroid figure stands approximately 10 centimeters tall and comes with a range of accessories to capture his personality during the game’s intense investigations and trials.
It includes three different interchangeable face plates, allowing for a standard “smiling face,” an intense “pursuit face” for when he’s closing in on a contradiction, and a “panicked face” for moments of shock.
A key optional part included with the figure is a special “refutation film sheet.”
This transparent sheet, printed with Japanese text, can be placed in front of the figure to recreate the visual effect of him shouting “No, that’s wrong!” during the game’s “Rebuttal Showdown” minigame.
An exclusive bonus item is also being offered for customers who pre-order the figure directly from the official Good Smile Company online shop.
Those who purchase from the official store will receive a “special round base” for the figure.
The Nendoroid Hajime Hinata figure is priced at 6,500 yen (approx. $44 USD / £33 GBP) and it is scheduled to be shipped to customers in December 2025.
Pre-orders for the figure are now open directly via the Good Smile Company store and will remain open until the 3rd of September, 2025.
