GSC updated their Site with some new details regarding their upcoming “Nendoroid Nakano Azusa” from K-ON!, which was just opened for reservations recently.
The reason why they decided to open a 2nd shipment eventhough it’s not part of their initial plan, is because of the amount of order they received yesterday. The amount of orders they received through online retail stores have exceeded their original production capacity, which in the end resulted in shortage of supply.
According to Twitter by Akitakanori, one of GSC staff, the order have exceeded the amount by 3 times of their original production capacity.
So it’s possible that eventhough you ordered for the May release, you might get it in June instead because of the supply shortages.
Plus, the good news is that it does not applied to just Nendoroid Nakano Azusa, but also to the other upcoming K-ON! items, which include the Figma line up. So they are now planning for a 2nd shipment for the rest of the items.
So this is a good chance for those who missed the previous Figma and Nendoroid reservations of the series (Yay!) ^^
