The Nendoroid comes with two expressions: one with her gently smiling and one with a serious and diligent look, pictured above. It even comes with a set of removable glasses that can be fashioned on either face.

Accessories include a rice cooker and rice scooper, portraying her trademark love of rice. The Nendoroid costs 3,241 yen (about US$27) and is expected to come out in January 2016.
So far Honoka, Umi, and Kotori were released in their training clothes as Nendoroids. Like the previous releases, customers that pre-order from Good Smile Company's website get a special background. In this case, the background shows the school rooftop at sunset.
