Like many Nendoroids, the figurine stands at approximately four inches tall and is composed of both ABS and PVC plastic. The fully articulated diminutive character has adjusted proportions to the Kingdom Hearts Riku Nendoroid figurine that came out in January 2019 to show that Riku is now older and has grown.

In addition to a clear plastic display stand, the Kingdom Hearts 2 Riku Nendoroid comes with two face plates, one with a smiling expression and the other appearing more serious, as well as his Way to the Dawn Keyblade, Kairi’s letter, and the bottle that it was sent in. Three different versions of both the left and right hands are provided to enable Riku to hold the included items.
Also currently available for preorder is a Kingdom Hearts 2 Sora Nendoroid, who comes with three face plates and the Kingdom Key. While other Kingdom Hearts 2 figurines were announced to be in development during the livestream, the specific characters and their release dates have not yet been revealed.
Nendoroid figurines provide an alternative to the chibi-style Funko Pop figures and the more lifelike figurines created by McFarlane Toys or Dark Horse. Good Smile Company has created Nendoroid figurines for a number of popular video game characters over the years. Ellie from The Last of Us 2, Sam Porter Bridges from Death Stranding, and Isabelle from Animal Crossing: New Horizons have all received a Nendoroid makeover. And, more recently, Nendoroid figurines of Crash Bandicoot and the Doom Slayer from DOOM Eternal were announced to be in development for release sometime in mid-2021.
Different Nendoroid figurines come with varying amounts of accessories. For example, the Doom Slayer will come with a helmet, equipment launcher, chainsaw, Crucible Blade, Super Shotgun, two versions of the DOOM Blade, effect parts for the equipment launcher and chainsaw, as well as a mini Cacodemon figure. The Witcher 3’s Yennefer Nendoroid, on the other hand, came with only three items: a raven, a lightning effect to add to her hands, and a Gwent card. The prices of the figurines often reflect this variation in the number of props provided.
