Yes, it's official, Sakura Kinomoto nendoroids co-de by Good Smile Company are available for pre order starting today!
Their release date was revealed: November 2016.
Their official price is 3000jpy at GSC online store, but you will encounter her for lesser prices elsewhere: I personally pre-ordered them both this morning from amiami for 2400jpy, which is a gain of 1200jpy on them both together, that's a lot of money! (these 1200jpy will be used for the shipping cost, nendo co-de have little
packages and are light weighted ^_^)
What is a nendoroid co-de?
Nendoroid Co-de is a new addition to the Nendoroid series based on the theme of dressing-up characters! The figures have fixed poses and each come with four parts - the head, upper garment, lower garment and shoes. Each of these parts can be swapped between characters allowing for all sorts of possibilities. The more you collect, the more dress-up options become available to you!
The name 'Co-de' comes from the Japanese pronunciation of the word 'coordinate', as in clothes coordination.

Well, as I said before, I already pre-ordered both of them this morning from AmiAmi, and no regrets, they are both adorable, but STILL: I think the nend co-de range should cost a lot less than this, considering there are no extra parts at all: some "full" nendo cost almost the same as the co-de! @_@
The other thing is that I feel "cheated" here, in the sens that to play the game of the whole nendo co-de thing: the more you have, the more options you get of dressing up your little figures...but in the particular cases of this battle costumes, mixing kitty with angel crown up just wouldn't work at all ^^;
The one advantage I still see here, is that I think you can take off the fact part, in which case it means that I've now got 2 new faces for my nendo Sakura ^_^
