Zenless Zone Zero Ellen, Rina, Corin, and Lycaon Figures Teased
Apex Toys announced pre-orders are about to open for a Zenless Zone Zero casual Ellen Joe figure, and that it is also working on figures based on Alexandrina “Rina” Sebastiane, Corin Wickes, and Von Lycaon. All of them are from the Victoria Housekeeping. Only Ellen has a release window so far, which is August 2025.
The Ellen figure already is in the painted prototype stage, as this character is about ready to go. Apex Toys announced pre-orders are about to open for her. She’s in her casual school uniform, which is the same outfit that is the subject of her first optional On Campus costume in-game. It is a 1/8 scale figure, which means it’ll probably be around eight or nine inches tall.
Here are all the initial photos of her that Apex Toys shared with us online.

The other Victoria Housekeeping Zenless Zone Zero figures of Corin, Lycaon, and Rina are much earlier in development . Apex Toys only shared unpainted prototype pictures of the three of them. Those will all be in their default maid and butler combat attire. They’ll also be 1/7 scale, so they should be around nine inches or taller. That means they’d be more along the lines of the ones based on Cunning Hares members Anby , Billy , Nicole, and Nekomata.
Here’s how those are looking so far:
Alexandrina “Rina” Sebastiane
Corin Wickes
Von Lycaon

Even more figures are also on the way. However, it will take more time before we see them. Good Smile Company is working on Zenless Zone Zero Nendoroids too. The first ones will be siblings Belle and Wise .
Zenless Zone Zero is available for the PS5, PC, and mobile devices, and scale figures of Ellen, Rina, Corin, and Lycaon are on the way from Apex Toys.

“Both of which imply one major problem”: Apex Legends’ Decline Blamed on Upper Management Prioritizing Profits Over “players best interests”
PUBG may have catapulted the battle-royale genre into mainstream gaming, and Fortnite may be the current top dog, but Apex Legends has arguably had the most satisfying gameplay in the genre.

“Ridiculous what they charge for things in game”: Apex Legends Players Have a Better Idea of Unlocking Heirlooms but Respawn Just Loves Microtransactions
Apex Legends’ developer, Respawn, is a big fan of microtransactions. Players are required to spend a lot of money in the game to gain exclusive and rare items, including heirlooms, that ideally should be given based on the time spent on the game through leveling up or finishing challenges.

Zenless Zone Zero Nekomata Figure Looks Playful
Apex Toys will open up pre-orders of a 1/7 scale figure of Nekomata from Zenless Zone Zero . Pre-orders will start from December 12 and end on December 26, 2024.
So far, the figure will be available via the Apex Innovation TMall online shop. Those who pre-order from this shop will be able to receive a free keychain. It looks like a CD case with Nekomata’s picture inside. As for the price, the figure costs 849 CNY ($116.95), but during the initial sales period, it’ll only cost 799 CNY ($110.05). The figure should come out in November 2025.
As for the figure itself, it depicts Nekomata striking a playful pose. She’s got one hand curled like a paw near her face, while her other hand is holding one of her daggers. Her tails are making a heart shape, and she looks like she’s in the middle of skipping. Like when you pull on the characters in the game, the stand of the figure resembles a film reel.

Apex Toys shared a prototype of this Nekomata figure back in July 2024 . At this time, it also showed off figures of the other members of the Cunning Hares: Anby, Billy, and Nicole. As the Anby figure is available on AmiAmi, it’s highly likely that AmiAmi will stock the Zenless Zone Zero Nekomata figure as well.
Zenless Zone Zero is readily available on the PS5, Windows PC, and mobile devices.

Dokibird Nendoroid Prototype Revealed Ahead of Figure Pre-orders
In July 2024 , Good Smile Company and Dokibird announced the independent Vtuber would join the Nendoroid figure line. When that happened, only an unpainted prototype appeared. Now, pre-orders are closer to opening and more details appeared about the collectible and its accessories.
Dokibird first brought up the latest reveals for the Nendoroid during her Marvel Rivals launch day stream, which involved comparisons of the unpainted prototype to the painted version of the figure. You can see the segment at about the 3 hour and 44 minute mark. She began by showing the unpainted version, which didn’t include any accessories and only featured a pose of her waving. The latest version shows the same painted version of the figure with the same faceplate, while also including some of the accessories that come with it.
Dokibird shared a photo of that on social media as well. She said that she was consulted when it came to accessories for the figure. She said she picked the Crowki, Dragoon, and Tomato mascots, with the Dragoon being one the character can hold.
https://twitter.com/dokibird/status/1864905810339357045
There’s no pre-order date yet for the Nendoroid. However, during the stream Dokibird suggested that would be happening soon.
There’s already a Dokibird figure available from an official retailer, with YouTooz having worked with the Vtuber before. That was revealed back in June 2024. It sold out on the official site . That’s expected to appear by December 11, 2024.
The indie Vtuber is quite busy at the moment. She held an Apex Legends tournament with other Vtubers in November 2024. She’s also up for the Best Vtuber award at the Stream Awards 2024 alongside people like Ironmouse and Zentreya .
The Dokibird Nendoroid is in development, with pre-orders apparently set to open soon.
