Apparently the nendoroid Yuki's are selling much more than the Haruhi's. The wording in this image says "Yuki sold out", "Haruhi - tons left."
Is Yuki as a character more popular than Haruhi? I'm personally a Haruhi person.

I think it's more with the type of figure than the actual character. I like Haruhi more, but I kinda like that Yuki figure more than the Haruhi one next to it.

Kinda agree with you.

But in this case, I don't know... both figures don't look that good to me ^^;

could be that there were less of Yuki made and people were buying all of them to have a set. if thats the case then it makes more sense as to why there are haruhi left.. ie nobody wants a partial set. or something like that.

Most possibly because the yuki is cosplaying and the other is in a pose other than a regular standing.

or maybeee  they store stocked up on more haruhi's then yuki's. It makes more sense to have more of the main character and a bit less of the others

Yea it's probably because the stores tend to stock up more on Haruhi since they think she'll sell out more. That being said I'm still eagerly awaiting my Tsuruya nendoroid >

I like haruhi best, i love tsunderes jeje, but in this case i think yuki's figure is better, i would buy yuki first then haruhi.

well yeah Id say for a figurine Yuki is far more accurate if you take the "doesn't talk" into account.

I like them both, and I don't like to choose just one.
That's why I just bought a Haruhi and a Yuki figure few days ago! ^^

But I still want the Majo-Yuki figure and the standard school uniform Haruhi one.

I also got Mikuru-chan in bunny suit holding a sign... the one from the first episode.

So MOE

One thing I find it strange is.. Aren't nendoroid cheap (relative to other figures prices)? Therefore, why not buy every single one of them, it's always better to have a fully-complete collection rather than partially-complete collection, isn't it?

1) Haruhi is not my type and I prefer Shana, Rin and Kagami much more in the tsundere department. I don't envy Kyon for the treatment he gets (I'd get mad really early if I were him).
However, she is fun to watch everytime she's frustrated and her optimism, "never give up" and "here goes nothing" attitudes are fitting of a commander. 

2) I prefer the serious type, one you can rely on. Yuki is a bit too silent for my taste, sadly. But her superpowers and logical skills deserve respect. She can be unexpectedly fun at times (Day of the Sagittarius III, optical mouse scene) and talk a lot when she wants to (but only when uttering extremely advanced scientific jargon).

Yuki largely wins, at least it is true for me. This is the verdict reached by the jury in my brain. ^^

Haruhi's going to bring reality down on Yuki's head... literally unless "she" starts to sell. Probably yuki is so loved by people is her silent demeanor; just like Rei from Evangelion.

I like both. But maybe leaning towards Haruhi more... but isn't it also because they re-released the Haruhi nendoroid while they only released Yuki once?

but if it comes to figure, yuki has more interesting variation of pose/costume than haruhi

Hm!! I love both of them, but I'd really rather buy Yuki. My reason? Wait for season 2, or read volume 4 of the light novels series. I'm sure you'll come to love Yuki then too =]

I guess most people have a fetish for amoeba girls (quiet, almost lifeless type). I guess I'm kinda into those sorta characters, but I remember Yuki best for DFC (Urban that).

Yuki, an amoeba?
Heh, just seeing her in action should leave you stunned.
Actually, I'd love to see a more expressive Yuki, but it surely wouldn't fit the character... And this is what is unique in her.

It is all about perception of characters.  Some people like the silent Evangelion Rei characters and tend to like Yuki more.  For rash and obnoxious styles, try Asakura or Haruhi, maybe not the obnoxious part for Haruhi.  We may all like Brigade Chief Haruhi, but many are more inclined to favour for a silent indisposiable member of SOS brigade.

For me is too hard to admit, but Yuki figures are most cute that the Haruhi ones. and not only the Nendoroids, In general,in other colections of Haruhi figures, the best one is Yuki

I personally prefer Yuki than Haruhi. But what got me more worried is that Haruhi might feel stressed about losing to Yuki and she creates the "other Dimension" and the "Blue Giants". Lots of trouble will happen if she do that.

I like yuki than haruhi. haruhi is pretty but i don't want to become slave. And yuki is nice and cute i like  her silent and kind. From figure i think yuki is more interesting pose and nice detail. But my best choice is mikuru i really love her.
