Wooh... cute figures! I really need to save up some money for some figmas... all the pictures you post everytime so make me want to play with figmas and my camera lol... gosh... i shouldnt have bought that ipod touch 32gb and ordered a load of figured instead... *headdesk*
Love how they actually made Haruhi to grope Mikuru's eyes there but her facial expression doesn't suit it...she should be grinning. Btw, I notice that your hair is graying Danny =p
yep - starting to gray a lot this year ^^; It reminds me that life is short and precious.
Temptation.. ugh.. must.. resist.. aaaaggghh..... I can't last! I guess pretty soon I'll be getting some money from the bank and purchase some figma~
needa is in my pre-order list, hope got enough stock allocation for my country. there is only two type of PVC figurines that I'll buy double. the limited edition or rare ones and the cast-offable ones, like the 1/6 koyori from sengoku cannon that i have http://www.flickr.com/photos/24737696@N04/2353159722/in/set-72157604206320055/ Some I've even bought 3 units. for gundam, i will buy more than one if the price goes down below market price. good use for spare parts or for modding purpose. i'm not interested in figmas as the joints are too obvious, the only figma that i've pre-ordered so far is the saber armour version.
haven't thought of getting haruhi...but after seeing this , makes me wanna get her to make the breast groping pose when mikuru comes out ^_^
my thoughts exactly. ^^ problem is getting haruhi now will be difficult.
Difficult? Why? HLJ has it in stock now =) http://www.hlj.com/product/MAX06037
Aw damn Danny... You lucky guy getting away with Needa like that. Question is though: are you gonna keep her or set her free? To be honest I'm not into the poseable figures, but I am impressed how versatile they are. Especially with Haruhi groping
This one I'll keep and if I get anymore then set them free.
LOL, set them free?! LOL as set them free in the wild?
Gosh, she's soo cute. Whish I had the money to buy the entire group....
Good pricing for good quality figure....love the expression...
itsuki looks so manly in one photo, however, the hare hare yukai pose was kinda....
hanyaan~!!! i so wanted to GET the mikuru figma~ *heart heart heart*
oh my gosh it's NEEDA! another SAFS, i'm so green with envy. hope mine comes soon. orz
Haha I laughed when I saw the board coming with Itsuki. Now they are sure to sell a lot of Koizumi ^^; I am planning to get a 2nd Miku nendoroid, and maybe a 2nd Figma Saber. Have also 2 Donne Anonime, but not exactly the same since one is the Nitro+ exclusive.
Same character but from different lineup/maker yes, but never 2 of the same thing.
I want the whole SOS dan!
Hehe - wierd - my first post in the news items was about this! I dont usually like poseable figures, but the likeness is so good, and i love the 'waah' face so much, i just couldnt resist! How big are figmas? Are they about as big as the fraulein figures? As for more than one of the same one, i have the Shunya yamashita sculpted Kasumi Sega prize figures. Theyre not technically the same one - theres a white and a blue version, but i had to buy both in the set. Needa looks like an awesome figure, but im trying to cut down on my shunya figures, and go for more stylised, anime esque ones like etna.
Oh, and itsuki looks very effeminate! I like the way how they bundle the backdrop in the pack as motivation to buy him. Not many people will want him though!
About the same size.
LOL, love the groping part XD So the last 2 Figma releases for SOS members will include the chalkboard background??!!! O_O! Oh if anyone wondering, Needa will be out on 12th May, 2008 ^^ Can't wait for her ^^
Hey Danny, how tall is the Needa?
Will take a pic of her next to the others for you to see and compare.
I want mine!!! not fair danny, not fair
I have yet to catch a single episode! my friend forgot to pass me the DVDs...:(
The Mikuru gropings will be epic. I had doubts about Figma style figurines when I first saw them come into popularity. I didn't like the idea of the balljoints marring the way the figure looked but I'm seeing that the posability of the figurines can make it pretty damn cool. I'm actually surprised, I really tought I wouldn't like Figma stuff at all, both surprised and pleased.
Not many figures in my collection at all, but I already have several MG Zakus.
we envy, those figma figures ate definitely going on my must buy list. about the figures I have two of, the GFF crossbone, Guncannon and ex-s. ^^
I usually only get one of any models, since I don't see any real need for multiple copies. Maybe I could buy two Wildwurgers, and repaint one of them red...
I'm fine with having 1 of each. Ah, I need to fetch the rest of SOS to re-act the dance. ^^,
I see some dot all over your cheek Dan are your Hay Fever are back on your again? hope you be fine very soon
nice marketing strategic... I think not many will buy Itsuki if it didn't come with a board. He is in my list now since I already got/pre-ordered the other 4; why not get a set..
Needa will be my first figure from the Shuraki series. And figma Mikuru, I bet it will be the best figma.
DO WANT MIKURU FIGMA!!!
omgomg you got needa! I love mikuru's open eye upset face LOL totally look like her XD but her boobs seems to have shrank o_o;
Mikuru looks great ^^
Yes finally all 5 are available to order. Already got my Haruhi and Nagato Figma, Kyon incoming soon. This is the last 2 :D
What a great Mikuru figure, I most have it!!!Hey Danny why you have Needa with you?
Already pre-ordered the Mikuru figma. It seems like most Japanese stores (Hobby Stock, AmiAmi, Hobby Search) are limited people to order just one per person. Mikuru is the only figma figure I ordered from the SOS Dan. The only other figma I have is the saber one which I highly recommended people to get it!!! Just don't feel like to get the others! Compared to the other SOS Dan's figmas, Mikuru has almost no extra accessories came with it. I mean they give you a book and eyeglasses in Yuki's figma or the megaphone and armband in Haruhi's figma and etc. I guess Mikuru's cute face make up more than that! At least this is what I think! Anyone agree?
ah, lucky Danny teasing us with Needa ! About the question, I only have some figure in double when alternate colors exists ^^ (some figures in triple this way)
Grr, you tease us as always, DannyChoo. Enjoy your Needa while you can. My ninjas are on their way to take her as I type. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Curses! They were waylaid by local authorities! That's waht I get for mailing them in a cardboard box... Can't stop looking at Mikuru...
Awesome! Wasn't sure if I wanted to get the whole crew, but now I'm sure of it As to any doubles, I don't really see the need to have any. I have only so many eyes to look at them with =P
OMG An Itsuki figure. Danny... PLEASE make a blog explaining why there aren't more male character figures made for WOMEN! >o< I always talk to my figure-otaku friend about this, and we agree that the market for female intended figurines should be tapped. I know there are SOME out there, but...
I'll take Kyonko figma over Itsuki any days!!!
Just placed my order for Mikuru… かわいい！
LOL nice... actually comes close to a figure I dream they'd do: That scene were Haruhi bites Mikuru's ear. I have only one repeated character among my figures... and guess who? Suzumiya Haruhi. :P But if I had easier access to figures, I'd probably have more than one version from Shana, Ichigo Mashimaro girls, Nagato Yuki, and some others...
wow, I (almost) can't believe they made one of Haruhi groping Mikuru...
YES!!! Can't wait till it comes out!!! I want to finish the set!!!
Mikuru is a must get! However I still don't enjoy her "I saw a roach/rat/ I get abused by Haruhi"'s face. ^^;
i like that expression. looks cute. gonna put that face on her when i bought it. ^^;
Mikuru is cute
wow, the Needa, waiting for it to release, you so good to have it 1st. The last 2 SOS Dan member figma also not bad, nice.
wow you got a Needa...i think i'm jealous hahaha...i was a bit disappointed to find out that the release date was pushed back, i just hope my pre-order gets filled.
Not much to say about the figure, but hey Danny... I always see you in black/gray suits... no other color? :D:D (No hard feeling :D It does not mean that you do not look good in black/gray :p)
Usually wear black - will take a picture of the wardrobe and post it ^^;
nice! i would buy two of the same if and only if they're different poses or by different manufacturers and main point is they should be interesting - like some figures have very lovely facial expressions.
Ahh... Needa looks good. I still wish there someone would do a review of the KOS-MOS Ver.4 Figure from Alter. Nobody seems to care about that figure, but it's sold out in quite a few shops now! The only site with halfway decent pictures seems to be Hobby Search 1999... I have never bought a figure before and I'm not sure if I may be disappointed by it.
I do, sort of. Well, you know how trading figures have variation figures? I have a few of those. Besides, according to Izumi Konata, it's better to have duplicates so you can keep one for collection, one for display, and one more just for the hell of it XD. .....I didnt go that far, but it's a good idea lol.
I have multiples of a lot of my favorite characters and a few outright doubles (the problem of having a spouse who is also into anime). I love the Mikuru figma, I know I will preorder her. I am undecided about the other one.
i'm still not a big fan of the figmas, i don't like joints and for the price i don't like how small they are. even still i'm planning on picking up the Hatsune Miku Figma when she is released...
omg... i'll preorder Mikuru once she's available here. the number of scenes she's able to do with Haruhi are - endless o_O
