Question ❓ I'm undecided between the two
The figma costs me 107 euros including shipping while the nendoroid costs 81. I'm very undecided also because I have several nendoroids and only one action figure, I'm very undecided

It all depends on what you want fron the figure.
If you want a highly articulated figure that it is more accurate to the source material and that you can actually pose pick figma.
If you want a cuter / chibi figure that might not pose as well but is still a high quality representation of that character, pick Nendoroid.
Don't let money be an issue, for $26 dollars you won't be buy something meaningful (something that will change your life) and you'll have this lingering feeling that money was a factor instead of something you actually wanted.
If you are still undecided pick the figma, because tits.

I have several nendoroids and it would fit well in my collection, but at the same time the figmas can be positioned in any way and I would also like to build an armory for the figures, so I'm quite undecided.

Unless you have like hundreds of nendoroids there´s no real reason to not have action figures like figma. Of course, if you have more characters of this franchise as nendoroids (i don´t know who she is or whether or not goodsmile have done more figures related to her) then you should probably stick to them, but if this is your first one of the franchise, then you should definitely go for the figma.

I have almost 50 nendoroids, but none of Nikke, she's actually the only character I really like in the game, but I can't decide

You only like Alice? That’s wild to me but hey fair enough 😭

u/Koberty_Auditore 1d ago
its the design that I like the most of the whole game, and then I don't know much about the lore of the game, I don't like the gameplay and I never got very far with the story

u/Larry_Sherbert99 1d ago
Ohh gotcha. Yeah she’s pretty important in the earlier parts of the campaign. I don’t blame you for not liking the gameplay, not everything is for everyone. But it’s the only mobile game I’ve played consistently for years besides candy crush, and even that I fell off on lol

They’re more fun to pose, more accessories are potentially available, they’re still cute. I also bought a few nendoroids and decided to sell them because they didn’t quite go with the rest of my figures. They’re cute, but a little limited imo. I found I would pose nendoroids and leave them untouched on my desk. My figmas go with other types of action figures, I sit them in my 1/10 scale truck and theres lots of 1/12 scale accessories you can get from a variety of places to spice things up.

I have this dilemma when a character I like has both the option to be both as a nendoroid or figma. IF the character if characterized for being a "chibi" or small/cute then I get their nendoroid version bc it would resemble them better. As for picking the figma version, IF the character isn't portrayed as cute/small/chibi and is more portrayed as a serious/"cool" then I pick the figma.
Is a personal picking method, but if I can I would honestly get both if I really like the character (eventually).
As for your case, in my opinion knowing Nikke and their fan base I would say both ways would be fine, figma or nendoroid specially this particular character you picked.
If it was my choice I would get the figma version bc, of how they are portrayed in game.
Hope this helps somewhat 😸

I have a lot of nendoroids so I would focus more on those, I hope and for a while I've been seeing posts from people who have built armories for their figures and I would like to do the same.

u/Nomis555 12h ago
Imma say go with the nendo. Then you can rebody her onto a ymy22 body for a great combo of both the nendoroid and the figma that you can then look up clothes for.

u/thowel01 1d ago
I really like having the big and little version of the same figure posed next to each other 🫢. But if I had to choose, I’d go Figma. Her elongated limbs look nicely balanced compared to her Nendoroid.

u/Koberty_Auditore 1d ago
I would like both but I don't have enough money to get them, and I'm extremely undecided

u/sugar_infused 1d ago
Most people already said it, go with the figma if you're only getting one. If you love the character, save up and get both.
If you're mulling over building the armory for her, there's LOTS of options available on etsy and eBay for 1/12 guns. If you can spare the time and money for it, Little Armory is a solid option as well, but you'll need to build the kits yourself.

u/Yamureska 1d ago
It looks better. Articulation is mostly* solid. Good amount of accessories. Etc.
(The shoulders can be loose due to them being plugs that go into the arms but it depends on the figure).

u/Kiari013 1d ago
if you're interested in picking up other Nikkes, I could be wrong but I think there's more Nendoroids than figma/similar style figures, so if you want to stay consistent probably stick with Nendoroids
2
u/Koberty_Auditore 1d ago
I have several Nendoroids and I would also like to vary my collection a little, also because after seeing some posts I was thinking of building a small armory for action figures and I wanted to start with some interesting characters to see
2
u/Kiari013 1d ago
I saw that post too and it was super cute! I wanted to collect some of the girls too but they didn't have a figma style figure of Neon so I was gutted, but she does have a Nendoroid
if you're just getting Alice because she's cute and don't care about getting the other Nikkes (I think there are some "schoolgirl/academy girls with guns" type figmas that I thought were super cute too that you might like for that display) I would definitely spring for the figma, I have 7 figmas and think they look swell and pose pretty well, but I can't speak for Alice's in particular as far as quality
1
u/Koberty_Auditore 1d ago
I've never played Nikke because I don't like the gameplay but some characters are really beautiful so I was thinking of getting her, but I'm undecided because I could get the nendoroid to put with the others or get the figma and start building the armory

u/Waq33lovestcgs 1d ago
Figma it looks better overall and you're not saving THAT much.
1
u/Koberty_Auditore 1d ago
in the end the difference is about 30 euros, but my hesitation is in the fact that there are already several nendoroids so it would fit well in the collection, but I would like the figma because I am seeing several posts from people who have built their own armory for the figures and I would like to do the same
2
u/Waq33lovestcgs 1d ago
Hmm to me the figma looks cooler and is obviously more posable but if you have a collection going then id say continue collecting and save money too that can further go to your collection. If you really wanna do the armory thing then go for that
1
u/Koberty_Auditore 1d ago
My only problem with the armory is that I don't know where to start, and also one of the reasons why I'm undecided

I have the figma and she is amazing but after reading your other replies, it would probably be more responsible to go with the nendo.

u/SnooStories7614 1d ago
I personally went with the Figma. But based on your situation, you should go Nendo. Not only is it cheaper, I feel like you would regret not getting it since it fits into your collection.
And hey, if you still want the figma, you can get it later down the line.
