No offense Danny, but considering the number of posts about Eroge and Anime like Strike Witches, Kodomo no Jikan (I felt like pedophile after one episode), and Ikki Tousen, the comment doesn't surprise me. I love the figure news and Photo walks, but...
This one is at the top of my "To Buy List". I just received my full-sized Haruhi, Mikuru, and Yuki Nendo today, so now I can concentrate on upcoming figures like this one.
So I'm not the only one! I almost crossplayed as her for Halloween last year (but the costume was too expensive). I've also had a crush on Motoko from Love Hina.
An NSFW warning would have been nice. Not being familiar with this Doujin (and only having an innocent looking thumbnail in gReader), I was not expecting that image.
5cm Per Second. Not so much in the middle act, but certain scene in acts 1 and 3 cause my tear reservoirs to burst. Sadly, I wasn't as moved by Shinkai's "The Promised Place..." movie. I'm hoping (based on the comments) that "Voices of a Distant Star...
I already knew about (and wanted) Zetsubou Sensei, but I definitely need Yoko! I'd probably buy the other Gurren Lagann characters as Nendos, but I think that we need a Lagann Nendo for sure (just like how there were Tachikoma Nendos). Sometimes, I t...
Ugh, I hated this Anime. The first two episodes were great, but it got too over the top and nonsensical after that. Had to stop watch at episode 13. It's too bad: the OP and ED were both quite good. The running gag about Mermaid honor (a bit of Japan...
Danny, do you know if FREEing is re-releasing the other Bunny Girls? I noticed that Haruhi and Mikuru are on GoodSmile's product page next to Ryouko. I hope so, as I've been wanting to get Bunny Haruhi (and maybe Mikuru too). http://www.goodsmile.inf...
Sorry if I came off as rude. I just couldn't believe that I saw two references (even one unintentional) to the sound being by Fatboy Slim. Nothing against the man, but credit was due to the real artist. Looking forward to the video Danny =)
The first one is by Bus Stop, NOT Fatboy Slim. I don't know why his name is attached to the files everyone is posting. I've had that song on my iPod for ages (like 5 five years), and a quick check on Wikipedia confirms this. http://en.wikipedia.org/w...
I'll likely end up spending $250+ on figures this year (my first as a collector). I'm lucky enough to have the income but not the monthly expenses (i.e. rent) to afford this habit.
I wish they would just leave well enough alone. Part of what makes GitS so amazing is what was done with animation technology at the time. to "update" with advanced CG (and to recreate scenes with said CG) just doesn't feel right. At least the Eva mo...
Wore one for Halloween last year. I cross-dressed as a Catholic School Girl (was cheaper than buying serafuku): http://www.flickr.com/photos/irishninja/2045843119/
It really depends on where you live. I live in the valley of Northern California and though it can reach triple digit temperatures, my house stays very cool during the day. For me it helps to keep the blinds shut it you aren't in the house. I had no...
*Cries* Why Danny?! Why must you do this to me?! I don't even have all the older figures I want (it sucks to be a collector starting out). I guess I should be a little greatful for the Japan exclusives. I'd totally be broke otherwise.
So once again there's no way for Haruhiists living outside of Japan to buy these? How frustrating. I was really wanting those keychains, and now these are announced but cannot be imported. What's the deal?
I'll probably get this. I'm planning to have a nice set of Haruhi figues (Figma, Nendoroid, Bunny, etc.). In fact, right now Haruhi figures are the only kind that look really appealing to me (with the possible exception of Lucky Star figmas).
Seconded! I love the other ones, but I can just imagine Haruhi forcing Mikuru into the Hachiko costume, and her expression only reinforces this. WANT! Somebody tell me I'll be able to buy these on the net from Kid Nemo or something!
I had this preordered, but I canceled my order as soon as I saw Max Factory's equivalent. This figure really doesn't capture Mikuru that well. The colors are too drab and her pose has no "oomph".
Must get!! September is going to be an expensive month (between college book, Hatsune Miku figure, and this new Figma). Also, this is the second time I've happened to visit GoodSmile and see a new figure (last time it was Tsukasa) mere minutes before...
