I'm glad they;re finally releasing this form of Haruhi with the guitar. The bunny suit is cute, but the rocker style is hot.

i like Haruhi's super dynamic pose (not to mention stable as well). but i'm getting these three. makes for a good 1st get from the TMoSH series, aside from the Nendoroids.

Like Yuki the best but can't wait to get Haruhi as well. The Mikuru figure just looks odd to me. Can't explain why.....maybe it's the mouth.
(ID #380127) Posted on 2008/11/21 13:07
Might be due to Mikuru having a less eye-catching instrument (a small tambourine instead of large guitars) or the more dynamic half-jumping pose used which might be a result of not having a guitar to hold like the others. I actually like Mikuru's pink-punk outfit 2nd best after Haruhi's, so too bad that there's only so many things you can do with a tambourine ;)

7800 Yen is pretty steep for me. My limit is around 71 dollars for an Alter figure, but this one does look really nice...
(ID #380136) Posted on 2008/11/21 13:13
Nice that guitar is even more fetailed than Haruhi!

7800 for a 1/8 scale? I know the guitar is nice but... I guess it's what you pay for the Haruhi name ^^

She even has a pick for the guitar. I'm thinking of cancelling my gothic mikuru preorder to get all three from the set :D
(ID #380226) Posted on 2008/11/21 14:15
Looks lovely, instant purchase for me. The set of 3 will look great ;D
(ID #380223) Posted on 2008/11/21 14:12
Instant Haruhi! Just add water!
(ID #380445) Posted on 2008/11/21 17:19
Indeed. Hopefully the tree that'll grow the money to help me buy so many figures will also sprout as rapidly. ^^
(ID #381301) Posted on 2008/11/22 08:51
That is some amazing detail on the guitar. And nicely done hair too.
(ID #380236) Posted on 2008/11/21 14:22
Hopefully Mikuru will be a bit cheaper since she doesn't have a guitar. Also, they gave Yuki a wah pedal, that's awesome!
(ID #380246) Posted on 2008/11/21 14:31
Hot damn, and here I thought I wasn't gonna give these a thought >_< why do GSC figures look so damn nice?!?! I can't stop buying!!!
(ID #380247) Posted on 2008/11/21 14:31
By the way, are they planning on releasing Kyon and Itsuki? (I know they won't but at least I would like to show there is some demand for them two ^^U)

Me too, i would like to see these two released in 1/8 PVC scale Let's hope that MaxFactory hear our voices ^^
(ID #380384) Posted on 2008/11/21 16:25
I hope so too, male PVC are scarce and the few that are released get taken like crazy. I'm still irked that the first puchi nendos have Tsuruya but no Itsuki; that's so messed up. The group in school uniform is incomplete thanks to that travesty.

You know, I swore that I wouldn't be collecting anime figures after overdoing it on LOTR and Star War figures before. Gotta set limits but this figure is damn good. Don't care much for the other two though.

Yeah, these are easily going on my list just because of how awesome they look. Time to make sure I actually have enough money to spend when preorder time rolls around.
(ID #380355) Posted on 2008/11/21 16:03
I really like this sculpt of her, lets hope that the mass production model stays as true to the one in the photos as possible. I've always had a thing for Yuki, but in this set Haruhi definitely takes the gold. And Mikuru sucks regardless of what she's dressed in, lulz.
