Release Date Revealed for Uncharted 4 Nathan Drake Nendoroid Figure

A release date for the Good Smile Company’s Nathan Drake Nendoroid was set for July 26, 2017, in North America. The collectible figure, based on the protagonist’s appearance in the PlayStation 4 title Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End, appeared for preorder on Amazon with this launch date specified.

The figure adapts the famously realistic treasure hunter into the signature Nendoroid style, which features a super-deformed or “chibi” aesthetic with a large head and smaller body. This particular collectible is part of the fully articulated “Edition” series of Nendoroids, offering a greater range of motion compared to standard figures in the line. This enhanced articulation allows Nathan Drake to be posed in a multitude of action stances that reflect his abilities in the game.

Figure Details and Articulation

The Nendoroid’s design focused on capturing the dynamic movement central to the Uncharted series. The full articulation enables poses that mimic Drake’s in-game acrobatics, including jumping, sliding, climbing, and hanging from ledges. This flexibility allows fans to recreate memorable scenes of exploration and traversal from A Thief’s End.

To represent the character’s personality, the figure included two interchangeable face plates. The first is a standard serious expression, suitable for depicting Drake during tense combat or high-stakes climbing sequences. The second features a confident grin, capturing the hero’s trademark humor and lighthearted attitude, even when faced with imminent danger. These options provide versatility in how the character is displayed, reflecting the different facets of his personality shown throughout the game’s narrative.

Accessories and Posing Options

To complement the articulation and expressions, the Nathan Drake Nendoroid came with several signature accessories. A key item from Uncharted 4, the grappling hook, was included. This accessory allows for dynamic swinging poses, making it possible to display the figure as if it were traversing a chasm or making a daring escape. The grappling hook was a significant new mechanic in the game, and its inclusion with the figure was a notable detail for fans.

For combat scenarios, the figure was equipped with both a handgun and an assault rifle. These weapons allow for the recreation of the intense firefights that punctuate the Uncharted adventures. By combining the weapons with the figure’s articulation and facial expressions, collectors could set up a wide variety of action-packed scenes. The collection of parts was designed to give owners the tools to recreate their favorite moments from the game, from quiet exploration to all-out gun battles.
