The Apothecary Diaries G.S. Collection Maomao 1/7 Scale Figure Re-release: UK Pre-order at Otaku Daily

If you missed the G.S. Collection Maomao the first time round, here is your second chance. Good Smile Company re-opened orders for its 1/7 scale figure of the apothecary from The Apothecary Diaries on 2 October 2026, the same day the anime's third season premiered in Japan, and Otaku Daily now has two pre-order listings for her: one Japan-sourced and one EU/UK-sourced, each with its own expected release.

Below you will find a quick introduction to Maomao, a closer look at the figure, how our two listings differ and exactly how pre-ordering with us works.

Who is Maomao?

Maomao is the sharp-witted young apothecary at the centre of The Apothecary Diaries. Raised in the pleasure district and trained in medicine and poisons, she ends up working in the imperial court, where her knowledge and curiosity lead her into one mystery after another. She is cool, practical and happiest when she has a new herb or poison to study.

The anime's third season began in Japan on 2 October 2026, so there is no better time to give her a place on your shelf.

A closer look at the figure

This is a quiet, thoughtful pose rather than an action one. Maomao sits on a low wooden bench with her knees drawn up, arms folded on top of them and her chin resting on her sleeve. Her expression is calm and a little pensive, as if she is mulling over her latest puzzle.

• Outfit: her familiar green jacket over a deep magenta skirt that pools over the bench, with bare feet.
• Hair: dark green, tied up with a pale blue ribbon, with fine strands sculpted around her face.
• Details: faint freckles across her cheeks, a blue rose held in one hand and a few small leaves scattered over her clothes.
• Props: the low wooden bench and a white mortar and pestle beside her, a nod to her work as an apothecary.

Two ways to pre-order: Japan-sourced or EU/UK-sourced

We have listed the G.S. Collection Maomao twice so you can choose the route that suits you best. Both listings are for the same figure and share the same JAN code; the difference is where our stock comes from and when it is expected.

• Japan-sourced: the G.S. Collection Maomao pre-order shows a release of Within 2027/7.
• EU/UK-sourced: the (EU/UK-Sourced) G.S. Collection Maomao pre-order shows a release of Within 2027/09.

Each listing shows its own price, so have a look at both product pages and pick whichever works best for you. If you are not sure which to choose, just ask us.

Why fans will love it

Plenty of Maomao merchandise leans on her deadpan or mischievous expressions, so this calm, reflective pose stands out. The figure captures the side of her that fans see when she is quietly thinking a problem through, and the props tie it firmly to her craft. The blue rose is a lovely detail for anyone who knows the story, and the soft green and magenta colours make it an easy piece to display.

Where she fits on your shelf

At around 18 cm tall, and seated rather than standing, Maomao has a relatively wide but low footprint thanks to the bench. She sits comfortably on a standard shelf, and the bench works as a built-in display base, so she looks complete on her own or beside other Apothecary Diaries goods.

How pre-ordering with Otaku Daily works

Our pre-order info page explains how pre-orders work, and the main points are below.

• Payment: both Maomao listings state that pre-orders must be paid in full upfront. Our info page explains that a deposit option applies only where a product page offers it.
• Not guaranteed: we make every effort to fulfil each pre-order, but they are not 100% guaranteed because of factors beyond our control, such as supplier availability.
• First come, first served: pre-orders are processed in the order they arrive, although allocations can occur in rare cases.
• Dates can move: release dates are subject to change, typically by 1 to 3 months. We send email notifications about date changes, and you can also check the listing.
• Prices can change: pre-order prices may fluctuate and usually increase over time, so pre-ordering early can sometimes save you money.
