Introducing the ZGMF-X42HZ Destiny Haruhi.

Until I started to play around with the Figma series by comrades Max Factory and GoodSmile, I wasn't too sure about the elbow joint in particular which looked kinda large in photos. The joints however don't look at all bad and I think its the way the light bounces off the joints in a photo.

This Figma is actually Yuki's body - the Haruhi one that is due out has bigger eyes ^^;

The Destiny parts are from my GFF Destiny. I used some Blu Tac to keep on the wings and other bits n pieces. I think I want to keep Haruhi like this so I got an excuse to get the MG Destiny.

What I like about the Figmas is that they are portable which is why I carry her around with me most of the time.

You can look for the Figma series and GFF Destiny on one of the following recommended dannychoo.com partner sites. As for the blu-tac, if you cant get hold of some then just start to save the bogies from your nostril.

Awesome photos, I love the Destiny Haruhi.
Figmas are always fun, as you can play and do different poses with them, which makes  a photo more interesting.

I must admit Dr. Frankenstein that those destiny parts look perfectly suited for Nagato's body. Did you do any filing or sanding? 

Now I hope she adapts to the hardware successfully, and doesn't go haywire. Hate to see her levelling of Tokyo be on your conscience.

Reminds me of Saikano (Saishuuheiki Kanojo) a bit. With the wings and stuff sort of sticking out of her body.

Reminds that I should finish that anime... The first 4 eps started off pretty sweet and dramatic.

.....Those Figma figures can't get here fast enough. ^_^

A quick question, Danny: how's the quality of construction of the figures? Do they feel sturdy enough for frequent play? Or do you have to be somewhat careful when you pose and play with them?

I just love the poseability of those Figmas and how 'compatible' the seem to be with other toys. Did the sword fit in her hand naturally or did you have to pull a trick to keep it in place?
I too ask the question: how durable and sturdy are all joints on the figures and the base-arm?

i have been searching for figma yuki in local shops but all turn out fruitless. orz

should have known if i didn't pre-order it earlier, getting it now will be as rare as finding a chobit in a rubbish dump. orz

wanted to post her like this with GN arms.

Every time you talk and take photos of Figmas, I get closer to buying them.  

This looks really good Danny.  Would be fun to do other girl/MS versions.  Of course that would mean buying more Figmas.  Wish someone would start doing MS Girls again.

I thought blu-tac was bogies from your nostril?  I know, shut up Ed... ^^;

I think the Revoltech figures are much better than figma, her joints look awful.... but I still love figures that you can pose and move around and for the price I would pick up Nagato & Haruhi.
