Last December 31, Good Smile Company opened its official Philippines Facebook page, and it was opened with a short teaser.
While the teaser did not reveal much, it did confirm that Good Smile Company is coming to the PH sometime in 2022.
A few days after the opening of the page, Good Smile PH released a video featuring company CEO, Takanori Aki. In his message, he stated that the company is “planning a lot of stuff” for 2022.
Check out his message here:
While Good Smile Company has yet to reveal what exactly its plans in the country are, there are several things that come to mind. For starters, it can mean there will be an official Good Smile PH web store, or possibly even a physical store. Though even without an official store, Good Smile products are already available in the Philippines via partner stores. Another possibility is more events and engagements with Filipino hobby collectors.
Whatever the case may be, this news is no doubt an exciting one for Filipino collectors. After all, Good Smile Company is one of the biggest figure and hobby producers from Japan. And in case you’re unfamiliar, Good Smile is the creator of several popular figure lines, including Nendoroids, Figmas, and more.
