If you’re a fan of Nier: Automata, there’s a series of new action figures coming soon.
The action figures are sold in Japan but will be available in the US via Playasia. Pre-orders are open until October 19, 2020. Below we have descriptions of each of the figures. The descriptions are from Playasia.
Nier: Automata Play Arts Kai: YoRHa No.2 Type B
From “NieR: Automata”, YoRHa No. 2 type B is newly introduced in PLAY ARTS Kai!
The white sword that is an attached weapon is also beautifully three-dimensional, and there are plenty of hand parts for replacement. You can reproduce the play as you like.
In addition, the logo mark of the YoRHa unit to which 2B belongs is decorated on the dedicated pedestal, so that you can fully enjoy the world view of the work.
It is a gem that has been carefully selected for its luxurious costume, hair texture, sophisticated body balance, and fine details.
Nier: Automata Play Arts Kai: YoRHa No.2 Type B is expected to ship on April 30.
Nendoroid No.1475 NieR: Automata: 2B (YoRHa No.2 Type B)
From “NieR:Automata” comes a Nendoroid of the automated YoRHa infantry member, the all-purpose battle android “YoRHa No.2 Type B (2B)”. She comes with two face plates—a standard faceplate and a combat faceplate. 2B’s blindfold can also be removed. Additionally, the Nendoroid comes with her weapons Virtuous Contract and Virtuous Treaty (each with attachable attacking effect parts) along with the tactical support unit Pod 042 and a black box. Be sure to add the beautiful android with a cruel mission to your collection!

2B (YoRHa No. 2 Type B) comes with the weapons Virtuous Contract, Virtuous Treaty, and her Pod. The figure is articulated allowing the figure to be posed despite its small size. The kit also comes with a clear base for the character, so 2B and her Pod can also be displayed.

My Take
These Nier: Automata action figures and models are pretty impressive (and expensive).
