Saya from the visual novel 'Saya no Uta' is getting a re-release, scheduled for January 2027. The figure is based on the game's package illustration, capturing her seated pose with a voluminous design. Her fleeting expression and wings are rendered with clear parts. The figure stands approximately 120mm tall and costs 8,800 yen. Dorothy Hays from the game 'VA-11 Hall-A' is also joining the line, with two versions planned for March 2027: a normal color and an Another Skin Ver. with white skin. Both Dorothy figures stand approximately 220mm tall and cost 8,800 yen each. The Another Skin Ver. emphasizes her Lilim nature with an inhuman skin tone, while the normal version highlights the contrast between her girlish appearance and mechanical joints. Both announcements come from Dengeki Hobby Web, which detailed the specifications for each figure.","whyItMatters":"The simultaneous announcements show Good Smile Company expanding the L size sub-line with both a nostalgic re-release and a new property, signaling continued investment in the larger format beyond standard POP UP PARADE releases.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eGood Smile Company\u0026#39;s POP UP PARADE L size series is a figure line that offers modeling and presence comparable to scale figures, as described by Dengeki Hobby Web.
