&@!*

Tons of characters who havenā€™t gotten the Nendoroid treatment, and she gets another figure. Of course. I donā€™t care about the creeps out there in it for the school outfit fetish, Iā€™m just mad someone like my Ana hasnā€™t gotten a figure. These figures take months before the next one is announced.

That explains the quietness, eh. At least they fixed the mechā€™s text

Mercy has 2 as well

Not even, why would this be a thing?

Pretty nice tbh, i canā€™t deny :+1:

Yeah Iā€™m glad they fixed the text. Also that video perfectly sums up my reaction. I donā€™t even know why I clicked it and looked at the figurine. :sweat_smile:

I think I read somewhere that they really wanted to the pilot skin first. And one of the planned mechs was a bus. So I think they planned to move a lot of merch with it. Which is probably why this already has a figurine.

Itā€™s true but itā€™s still laaaaaaame

Just want a non-boring skin

There is a reason why Dva has a statue, a figma and a Nendoroid and some heroes donā€™t.

Dva sells.

Dva is a way more popular hero than Ana, and Goodwill and Blizzard arenā€™t afraid to capitalize on this. Theyā€™re companies after all.

14

What for? Most people who have a problem with schoolgirl DVa likely donā€™t care about Nenderoids.

Or video games, actually.

15

Where you on the forums when it was announced? lololol

16

I know, I know. Itā€™s why I hate her in general. Easily top 3 faces of Overwatch. Dva fans (besides maybe skins) get just about everything handed to them.

17

Except a consistent hero

They gotta make up for relearning the damn hero every four months somehow ::)))) smiling thru the pain

Well, yeah, same with Mercy. Super popular with merch up the yin yang and nothing by digression for her in-game.

Dahell? The skin just got released.

But this Nendoroid was created weeks or maybe even months before. Thatā€™s how long it takes to design and create a high quality figure.

They were really betting on Dvaā€™s skin breaking the Internet that they even created a special figure for this. They really arenā€™t afraid to capitalize on the popular heroes with merchandise.
