【Preordine】Blue Archive - Rio

The pre-order process was smooth and the payment confirmation came through quickly, which eased my nerves about the long wait. Knowing it's a limited item from Good Smile Arts Shanghai makes me feel like I've secured something special for the collection, even if it's over a year away.

Ordered her the moment pre-orders opened—the expected dispatch date is a long way off, but the fact that this is a limited run from the Shanghai studio makes the wait feel worth it. The sculpting on Rio’s expression already looks sharper than most figures I’ve seen in this price range.

The wait until July 2027 feels endless, but locking in this limited pre-order for Rio was worth it—the fact that it's from GOOD SMILE arts Shanghai gives me confidence in the quality. I just hope the dispatch date doesn't slip, because she's going straight to the center of my display shelf.
