Question to GSC: From Nendos to Figmas?

Pretty much a quick question to GSC: How high is the chance of a character Nendoroid later being released as a Figma? I'm not a Nendo collector (Very cute, but not my thing), but am rabid about Figma and other roughly 1:12 scale figures. Now, Good Smile has both the Nendoroid and Figma figure lines--if GSC has the rights to produce a Nendo of a certain character, does that mean they have the right to produce a Figma version? Or are those two wholly separate licenses?

Was very disappointed that Strike Witches Yoshika had a Nendo but not a Figma (as of yet), and while I'm still sore abotu the Figma Canaan, I would REALLY love to see some of the previously released Nendo character that haven't been made into Figma--done as so.

I mean, I've been waiting forever for Ryougi Shiki, Arcueid, and just found out that a Nendo Feena Fam Earthlight exists. So...?

    Hard to say for me, Max Factory produces figmas but GSC does distribute them.

    depends on the moe factor and licensing i guess. I mean .. look .. we have no FMA nendos or figmas. I could use a Mae Hughes figma! then he can 'father' all my daughters! XD

      Agree with Crim, its about the Licensing.

        Oooh, me too! Especially Ed. He's hilarious. <3 Though with my current Figma collection, he'd end up in the position Roy always fancies himself to be in: surrounded by women. XD

    hmm Maxfactroy make Figmas but GSC distribute them to stores.i think Nendo characters have to be made into figmas since for example... Nendo Luka is wish badly to make into a Figma. Figmas is 11.5862069 scale. I know its alot of nums but it is still real that is the scale.

      I thought the scale varied from series to series? For instance, I wouldn't say that the Lucky Star figmas are in the same scale as the F/SN ones. (I've done a lot of head swapping, which tends to make even slight scale differences glaringly obvious.)
