Fate/Grand Order Pop Up Parade Saber Lily


 Goodsmile's promising new budget figure lineup, Pop Up Parade now officially have the popular series Fate/Grand Order join under their wing! For the first choice of character from the salty gacha hell game, GSC picked Saber Lily in her second ascension form. Pop Up Parade Saber Lily will be scheduled for April 2020 release for 3900 Yen Price tag. It appears to be a strange choice for GSC to pick Saber Lily out of many popular characters from FGO for the first figure of Pop Up Parade, but i suppose the adolescent youth of Saber Lily can represent this budding figure lineup. The only gripe for me is the Saber Lily figure doesn't come with Caliburn even though i think it is still doable for GSC to pull it off. Though probably GSC tried not to overlap with Aquamarine's Saber Lily which was up for Preorder early this year. While i am content with my Figma Saber Lily, i will get this one to support the Pop Up Parade lineup.

 I am always excited when i see a product lineup with good potential and Pop Up Parade is one of them.  Pop Up Parade is Goodsmile's answer to Bandai's Banpresto Ichiban Kuji and Prize Figures. While it might lose in terms of size and weight compared to Bandai's, from my impression with the lineup's version of Hatsune Miku and Kizuna Ai the product has decent sculpt for its price with acrylic packaging which only Premium PVC Figure usually have. I am hoping the best for GSC and Pop Up Parade because this lineup is worth supporting for.
