The Kaine Collectible Figure by Good Smile Company brings Kainé from the NieR series into the POP UP PARADE L Size line, made in collaboration with SQUARE ENIX. It’s priced at $105 and is expected to ship between June 2027 and August 2027. I’ve wanted a Kainé that doesn’t cost a scale-figure fortune for a while, so this one got my attention fast.
The Kaine Collectible Figure is a 9.45-inch (24 cm) figure of Kainé from NieR Replicant, made by Good Smile Company. It is available for pre-order at $105, with a limit of 6 per person. The expected ship window is June 2027 to August 2027, and arrival may run through November 2027.
Why Kainé Fits the L Size Treatment
Kainé has never been a small presence in NieR, so putting her in the L Size version of POP UP PARADE makes sense to me. At 9.45 inches (24 cm), she’ll stand taller than a standard pop-up style figure and closer to what you’d expect from a display piece. For a character whose whole personality is volume, from the sword work to the swearing, a bigger footprint feels like the right call rather than a gimmick.
What I’m Watching in the Sculpt and Paint
The images shown are of a prototype, and the final production piece may differ, so I’m holding my opinions on paint loosely for now. The detail I keep coming back to is how Good Smile handles her pale hair and the flower she wears, because those two elements carry most of Kainé’s silhouette. Line figures like this usually lean on clean color blocking instead of the layered shading you’d get on a 1/7 scale piece from Good Smile’s own premium lines or from Alter. If the production run keeps the prototype’s sharpness, that tradeoff is one I’d happily take at this price.
The Price and the Ship Window
At $105, this sits in a comfortable spot for a 24 cm figure from a major maker. The ship window is listed as June 2027 to August 2027, which is roughly eight to ten months from today, and arrival dates are estimates that can stretch through November 2027. Plan your budget around that long runway rather than expecting her on your shelf by summer’s start.
Who This Is For
If you played NieR Replicant and Kainé was your favorite part of the party, this is an approachable way to give her real shelf space. There’s a purchase limit of 6 per person, which tells me Good Smile expects steady demand, though I can’t imagine most of you needing more than one. We’ll update this preview if final production photos or packaging details are released.

The Collector’s Survival Guide: How to Justify This
The Collector Math: To get Ending D, NieR makes you delete your entire save file, every last hour, just to save Kainé. I already gave this woman my whole save file once. After that, $105 from Good Smile is basically a tip.
How to tell your wife: Kainé has a Shade named Tyrann living in her arm, and he spends the whole game whispering terrible ideas. Turns out he can whisper through a $105 Sideshow preorder page too. Take it up with Tyrann.
How to tell your parents: Mom, you always told me to finish what I start. NieR Replicant hides its full story until you beat it over and over, and I saw every single ending. Kainé is my diploma, and you never throw out a diploma.
How to tell your kids: This is Kainé, and she swears more than anyone in any video game ever made. She used up every bad word there is, so there are none left for you. Any you hear at school were stolen from her.
Kainé at 9.45 inches for $105 is a sensible way to finally honor NieR’s loudest swordswoman without paying scale-figure prices. I’d pre-order calmly, keep an eye on the final paint against the prototype, and leave room in the calendar for that November 2027 possibility.
