Hmm fair point. Similar large cast series with a broad appeal to fangirls these days have figurines up till here. Within months of popularity (or well, anime adaption) usually.

Heck, even things that seem more minor in all of it seem to have a lot of figs and merch out.

It does seem unusual to start pushing out all the expensive stuff so late into the show. It seems to still be related to all the beautiful world and world stars stuff. Perhaps there could be a new season? I wonder if it's because the hetalia fanbase is kinda a low running constant even now the hype has faded... The recent cafes were very booked each time I checked. And the one lottery they held at animate was sold out when they did.

I guess everything there it's a pretty safe bet cause hetalia is definitely still selling haha
