Quick answer (our top pick): the best overall anime figure to buy in Australia right now is the Nendoroid Frieren, AU$149.83 on Amazon Australia (price checked 23 September 2026), because Frieren: Beyond Journey's End is currently the best-stocked anime figure line on Amazon's Australian storefront. If you want a cheaper way in, the Nendoroid Yuji Itadori: Execution Ver. is AU$74.63.

What we actually found checking Amazon Australia's figure catalogue
Before picking anything, we pulled Amazon Australia's own Nendoroid and Good Smile search results and checked more than twenty listings one at a time for a working "Add to Cart" button, not just a search-result thumbnail with a price on it. Most failed: 15 of the 20 listings we opened were marked "Currently unavailable" despite showing up in search, including well-known characters like Sukuna, Power, Nezuko and both Spy x Family Nendoroid lines. That is the real state of Amazon Australia's anime figure stock, and it is why several other guides on this topic, written from search results alone, recommend figures nobody in Australia can actually buy today.
The five figures below all passed a live "Add to Cart" or "Buy Now" check on 23 September 2026, and we deliberately picked across five different anime and game licenses rather than five variants of the same line, so this list works whichever series you are shopping for.

How We Chose These Figures
We started from Amazon Australia's own Nendoroid and Good Smile Company search results, then opened every promising listing individually to confirm a genuine, working buy box rather than trusting the search page's price tag, which Amazon shows even on listings marked "Currently unavailable". Of roughly twenty listings checked, five passed: all five are shipped and sold through a real Amazon Australia listing (three arrive via Amazon's own cross-border Germany fulfilment, which is normal for Good Smile stock and does not add separate customs paperwork for the buyer). We then matched each figure against its official product photo on Good Smile Company's own site to confirm we had the right release, and cross-checked each one against Play-Asia's catalogue by its exact Nendoroid number so buyers have a second, Asia-based option to compare. We could not independently confirm Play-Asia's current AUD price for this guide, since its site blocks automated price checks; treat the price shown at Play-Asia's own checkout as the live figure, not ours.
We also considered Nendoroid Fern and Nendoroid Übel, two more figures from the same Frieren line that also passed our live stock check, but left them out of the five to keep this list spread across different anime rather than three Frieren figures in a row. If you already own the Frieren pick above and want a second figure from the same series, both are genuine, currently purchasable options on Amazon Australia.
How to Choose a Genuine Nendoroid (and Spot a Bootleg)
1. Check the box for a clear Good Smile Company logo
A genuine Nendoroid box carries the Good Smile Company logo and a printed Nendoroid number (for example, "No. 2367" for the Frieren figure above). Bootleg boxes often blur or omit this entirely.
2. Compare the face plate paint against official photos
Bootleg Nendoroids are usually recognisable by sloppier eye paint and slightly off proportions compared with Good Smile's own product photography, which is why we matched every pick above against the official image.
3. Be wary of prices well below every other listing
If one listing is priced dramatically lower than the same figure everywhere else, including Play-Asia and Amazon, that is the most reliable warning sign of a recast rather than an official release.
4. Buy from a storefront that ships and sells the item itself
All five picks above are shipped and sold directly through Amazon Australia's own listing rather than an unverified third-party marketplace seller, which is the safest way to buy a Nendoroid without opening the box before it arrives.
Frequently Asked Questions
Where can I buy anime figures in Australia?
Amazon Australia carries official Good Smile Company Nendoroids, though stock is inconsistent: most listings we checked were marked unavailable. Play-Asia, a Hong Kong-based import retailer, is a second option that ships to Australia and stocks a much wider range of Nendoroid numbers than Amazon's Australian catalogue.
Why are so many Nendoroids listed as "Currently unavailable" on Amazon Australia?
Good Smile Company runs limited production runs and preorder windows for most Nendoroid releases, so a listing can show a price and full product page on Amazon while genuinely having no stock to sell until a re-run is manufactured. We checked every pick in this guide for a live "Add to Cart" button, not just a listed price, for exactly this reason.
Is it safe to buy figures from Play-Asia if I'm in Australia?
Play-Asia is a long-running Hong Kong import retailer that ships internationally, including to Australia, and is a genuine option for Nendoroid numbers that Amazon Australia does not stock. As with any overseas import, expect a longer delivery window than a domestic Amazon Australia order.
Do Nendoroids attract GST or import duties when shipped to Australia?
Overseas retailers selling more than AU$75,000 a year into Australia are required to charge 10% GST at checkout on low-value imported goods (under AU$1,000), so this is typically included in the price you are shown rather than collected separately on delivery. Confirm this at checkout with whichever retailer you buy from, since the rule applies per-retailer, not per-order.
What is the difference between a Nendoroid and a Pop Up Parade figure?
A Nendoroid is a chibi-style figure, roughly 10cm tall, with interchangeable face plates and posable joints. A Pop Up Parade figure is a larger, non-posable, single-pose statue in more realistic proportions, usually 17 to 18cm tall. Both are official Good Smile Company lines; Nendoroids are generally the cheaper, more playful option.
