The Witcher 3 Ciri Nendoroid Figure Received a US Release Date

Good Smile Company’s Nendoroid action figure of Cirilla Fiona Elen Riannon, better known as Ciri, from The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt was scheduled for a U.S. release in December 2021. The collectible figure was listed by retailers such as Amazon with a price of $52.99. This release followed the popular Nendoroid of the game’s protagonist, Geralt of Rivia, allowing fans to collect the central characters of the story.

Ciri in Nendoroid Form

The figure is part of the Nendoroid series, a popular line from Japan’s Good Smile Company known for its distinctive chibi art style, featuring characters with large heads and smaller bodies. Standing at approximately 10 centimeters (3.9 inches) tall, the Ciri Nendoroid is not a static statue. It is a fully articulated action figure, allowing for a high degree of posability. This design choice enables collectors to recreate Ciri’s agile combat stances and dynamic movements as seen in the video game, from sword fighting to preparing to use her unique abilities. The joints are designed to be flexible yet sturdy, holding poses effectively for display.

Expressive Face Plates and Signature Sword

A key feature of the Nendoroid line is the inclusion of swappable parts for customization. The Ciri figure came with two different face plates to alter her expression. The first is a standard, serious look, capturing her determined and often somber demeanor during the main story of Wild Hunt. The second face plate features a smirking expression, reflecting her more confident and occasionally rebellious personality.

Also included was her signature sword, Zireael. The name translates to “Swallow” in the Elder Speech, a significant name in her personal history. The miniature replica is detailed and can be placed in the figure’s hands for a variety of action poses. This accessory is essential for any depiction of Ciri in a combat scenario, representing her skills as a warrior.

Unique Accessories: Teleportation and Gwent

Beyond the standard accessories, the set included parts specific to Ciri’s character. Special effect parts were provided to simulate her teleportation ability. These pieces, made of translucent plastic, can be attached to the figure to create the visual of her blinking through space, a power central to her Elder Blood lineage and a key gameplay mechanic.

For a more relaxed display, the figure also came with a miniature Gwent card. Gwent is the immensely popular collectible card game found within the world of The Witcher 3. This small accessory is a direct nod to that beloved part of the game, allowing Ciri to be posed as if she is about to join Geralt for a match. The official product description noted that the figure was designed to be displayed with the Nendoroid Geralt, allowing fans to “enjoy recreating the world of the Witcher in adorable Nendoroid size.”
