Juxia Figure Review – Firefly Figure from Honkai: Star Rail Preorders Open Now!

It’s finally happening... Honkai: Star Rail fans are getting one of the most anticipated figure releases in recent memory! Good Smile Company has officially opened preorders for the 1/7 scale Firefly figure, with shipping scheduled for December 2026. Priced at ¥23,000 (tax included), this collectible captures the essence of Firefly — the mysterious warrior from the Astral Express universe — in a pose that radiates both power and melancholy.

A Long-Awaited Arrival:

Since Firefly’s debut in Honkai: Star Rail, she’s become a fan favorite for her emotional story arc and striking combat presence. Her quiet determination, framed by that haunting line — “I will fight for myself, until everything burns to ashes!” — resonates deeply with players. It’s no surprise that when whispers of a Firefly figure began circulating earlier this year, collectors across Japan, North America, and Europe were ready to pounce!

Now, Good Smile Company has made it official. The preorder window runs from November 11, 2025, to January 7, 2026 (JST) — giving fans less than two months to secure this piece before it likely sells out.

Exquisite Craftsmanship:

The figure stands at approximately 265mm (including the base), sculpted by Manabu Kato and painted by NIKU — both well-known artists within GSC’s figure division. Every detail of Firefly’s design has been recreated with remarkable precision: her flowing hair fades from amber to silver tones, while translucent layers reflect the subtle glow of her armor. It’s a perfect balance between elegance and intensity.

What truly stands out is the attention to lighting and texture. GSC has combined translucent resin with metallic paintwork to recreate the contrast between Firefly’s organic silhouette and her mechanical exosuit. The transformation device in her hand — one of her most iconic details — is sculpted down to the tiniest component. Collectors who saw the prototype in early showcases have already called it “cinematic realism at its best”! That’s no exaggeration.

More Than a Figure — A Moment in Time:

This release is more than just a collectible... it’s a moment frozen in motion. Firefly’s story in Honkai: Star Rail explores identity, sacrifice, and the fleeting nature of existence — and this sculpt captures that tension perfectly. Her slightly forward-leaning stance, the determined gaze, the flowing motion of her outfit — they all speak volumes without a word. The custom base adds to the drama, featuring scorched effects that symbolize the world she’s vowed to protect — and burn down if she must.

Community Buzz and Market Trends:

Within hours of GSC’s official announcement, the Firefly figure was trending under “流螢 フィギュア” on Japanese social media. Major retailers such as AmiAmi and Hobby Genki quickly reported high preorder volumes. Analysts note that Honkai: Star Rail figures have consistently exceeded expectations — previous releases like Kafka and Silver Wolf sold out in weeks! Firefly is clearly set to follow that same trajectory.

Interestingly, GSC’s longer preorder periods also reflect a growing industry trend: limited-batch, precision manufacturing. Rather than mass production, the company now prioritizes sculpt quality and consistency — which means higher collector value but potentially higher resale prices later on.

Final Thoughts:

If you’re a Honkai: Star Rail fan — or simply someone who appreciates art and craftsmanship — Firefly deserves a place in your collection. This isn’t just another figure; it’s a story molded into form, a tribute to one of the game’s most complex and emotional characters. Every angle, every curve, every shadow tells a tale of determination and beauty.

Preorders are now open through Good Smile Company’s official site and authorized retailers, closing on January 7, 2026. Shipping begins in December 2026. Don’t wait too long... this Firefly might burn bright, but not for long!
