Rojo naranja

Orange Rouge operates as Good Smile Company's subsidiary brand, specializing in Nendoroids and Pop Up Parade figures for anime series that don't always fit Good Smile's main catalog. This collection focuses on sports anime, otome game adaptations, and niche series with dedicated but smaller fanbases.

Sports Anime Dominates

Blue Lock gets heavy representation with Nendoroids of Itoshi Rin and Itoshi Sae, tapping into the soccer anime's explosive popularity. Haikyu!! rereleases Rintaro Suna, Shinsuke Kita, Tobio Kageyama, Toru Oikawa, and Shoyo Hinata in "The New Karasuno" versions, letting fans build full volleyball teams on their shelves.

These Nendoroids include multiple face plates (determined, smiling, shocked), sport equipment (volleyballs, soccer balls), and team uniform variants. Collectors who followed these series through their anime runs finally get affordable figures to celebrate their favorite athletes.

Otome and Niche Series

Bungo Stray Dogs gets Nendoroid treatment with Osamu Dazai in both standard and "Dark Era" versions, plus a Nendoroid Doll variant with fabric clothing. Reborn! brings back nostalgia with Takeshi Yamamoto, Hayato Gokudera, Kyoya Hibari, and Dino—characters from a mid-2000s shonen series that rarely gets modern merchandise.

Ouran High School Host Club's Tamaki Suoh and Tokyo Revengers' Takemichi Hanagaki appeal to fans of romance and delinquent manga respectively, showing Orange Rouge's willingness to cover diverse genres beyond mainstream battle shonen.

Touken Ranbu and Game Adaptations

Touken Ranbu Online gets both Nendoroids and Pop Up Parade figures featuring sword boys in ceremonial attire. Mikazuki Munechika appears in an L-size Pop Up Parade (24cm instead of standard 18cm), recognizing the character's popularity within the game's fanbase.

Fate/Grand Order's Pretender Oberon and Idolish7's Momo round out the game adaptation representation, targeting collectors who invest emotionally in gacha characters they've spent months acquiring.

Nendoroid Dolls for Customization

Orange Rouge experiments with Nendoroid Dolls—articulated bodies with fabric clothing and removable Nendoroid heads. Bungo Stray Dogs' Osamu Dazai and Hetalia World Stars' Japan appear in this format, offering collectors more dynamic posing options than standard Nendoroids.

The doll bodies use magnets for clothing attachment and include multiple hand options, letting collectors swap outfits or create custom displays beyond what fixed-pose Nendoroids allow.

Why Orange Rouge Exists

Good Smile Company can't greenlight every anime series for their main Nendoroid line. Orange Rouge handles properties with smaller but passionate fanbases—series that might not justify massive production runs but still have collectors willing to buy.

This lets Good Smile test markets without risking their flagship brand. If an Orange Rouge release sells well, Good Smile might absorb the property into their main catalog for larger production runs.

What to Expect

Nendoroids stand around 10cm with swappable face plates, hands, and accessories. Each figure includes a display stand and interchangeable parts for creating different expressions and poses. Nendoroid Dolls reach 14cm with fabric costumes and articulated bodies.

Pop Up Parade figures stand 18cm (24cm for L-size) with fixed poses and simpler paint applications than scale figures. They're budget-friendly alternatives to expensive 1/7 scales, costing $30-$50 versus $100-$300.

Orange Rouge releases tend to be limited. Rereleases happen if demand justifies it (Haikyu!! gets frequent restocks), but niche series like Reborn! or Ouran High School Host Club likely won't see second production runs. If you want them, grab them during the initial release window.

FAQs

How does Orange Rouge differ from Good Smile Company?
Orange Rouge focuses on niche anime and smaller franchises, while Good Smile handles mainstream properties. Quality standards remain identical—both use the same factories and design teams.

Are Orange Rouge Nendoroids compatible with Good Smile Nendoroids?
Yes. All Nendoroids use the same connection system, so you can swap face plates, hands, and accessories between brands. Orange Rouge and Good Smile figures display together seamlessly.

Why are some series only available through Orange Rouge?
Licensing and market size. Smaller franchises don't justify Good Smile's main catalog production volumes, so Orange Rouge handles them with smaller runs that match realistic demand.

Do Orange Rouge figures hold value?
Niche series with limited runs appreciate over time. Haikyu!! and Blue Lock Nendoroids stay affordable due to re-releases, but older series like Reborn! and Ouran gain value on secondary markets when they sell out.
