Fraulein Haruhi
The up n coming release of bunny Haruhi from Revoltech. Face is not so bad but looks like she may be in need of bandages to patch up those slices around her joints. Poor girl.
Original text from Tachikaze below.
I like the head and the guitar. Looks like a possible get, what do you guys think?
I think it's coming out on Feb 1st for 2,300 yen?

2300yen? DO want, but somehow the Fraulein Haruhi seems to have a really thin body ;_;

Yeah, I wonder if you can swap heads with Figma =3

Yeah, something doesn't seem too right about her body proportions.

Her body is all out of proportion she looks so weird. Her arms, legs and upper torso/shoulders all look too chunky for her skinny skinny torso and hips.

Even a bit out of proportion and unsightly joints, for ￥2300 you get what you pay for ^^
Office Administrator
http://aquilla429.co.uk
Even if she's cheap, that's still no excuse for such a poor sculpt imo. For the price yeah, the joints isn't too much of a problem, but to me the fact that they're obviously paid no attention to how she should be proportioned is just a big let down.

The face looks good and believeable, unlike some of the other frauleins which have rather wierd faces, but the very obvious joints on the arms and shoulders really breaks the deal for me.
But i'll definitely get maid mikuru!

Er... Face looks good? Not!
Seriously. I feel that the eyes are too far apart and the nose looks to be too flat... I always believed that Figma > Fraulien (save the eva ones and yoko).
But with 2 series competiting with the same characters, I'll go with Figma.

The joints look too horrible. You should save your money, and get the Alter Yuki PVC thats coming out next March.

If Figma releases a Bunny Haruhi and Maid Mikuru I might not get this Haruhi, but if not these are a "GetChu".

figma already has the Bad Witch Nagato, so Bunny Haruhi and Maid Mikuru may not be so far behind?

Figma version please. Do like the idea of what they're doing here but I loathe and detest the Revoltech stands, with a passion.

Not really into movable parts in figmas. There aren't a lot of poses Haruhi does that seem worth while (not like Mikuru). I prefer if the joints are hidden cuz they look hideous X_X

I'd love to get a figure of Haruhi as a bunny girl but this just isn't the one for me... Fraulein figures look rather scary. I mean looking at Haruhi's stomach area, its WAY too thin... and the shoulders remind me of some kevlar armor pads or something... just looks weird... for now, I'll just stick to Figma stuff. They're not perfect but close.

I agree with you completely. Now the only thing Max Factory needs to do is release an extra haruhi head w/pony tail and long hair *drool*

Suppouse it is useful having a skirt on these sort of poseable figures since it helps to cover up the obvious waist/leg joints.

This Haruhi really captures her spirit, and that Mikuru is beyond amazing

me again thinking waist she too thin.
me again thinking good is revoltech for mecha, but good is figma for character.

I'd buy it for the guitar. ^^;

Agreed, for the head and guitar =D

After watching my friend's Asuka fall apart on her, I'll pass on the Frauleins and wait on the Figma versions.

Ugly joints are ugly.
Never have been a fan of jointed figures, they just look creepy to me. I wish those artetokio figures were a LOT cheaper, those are poseable figures I could go for.

Really cheap, but I don't like Revoltechs much.
I mean, there are some really good, but it all depends on the figure and character...
Rei came out nice, probably because she's with the plug suit.
I really liked Yotsuba too.
But I think that's it...

the figma figures look much better plus their joints look better too, in comparison.

I never really liked Revoltech because of the way the joints look,the only one I ever liked was yoko.

Even though I am a Haruhi fan, do not want this figure. It does not look like Haruhi :(

Looks nice, but the facial expressions feel off...

revoltech figures are best when they're mecha designs. IMHO, most of their Fraulein designs don't come close to Figmas' standards. i'd pass on this regardless.

With all the Haruhi figures I've seen this has to be the worst in my opinion.

I'm sorry, I'll stick with Figma for Haruhi, and others for Revoltech.

It's not worth 2300 yen. Never liked joints. Makes it look Un-natural weird etc.

Not bad.
But the body is a little too thin..
But the guitar is awesome as always (gotta get my hands on that guitar).
MIS
Have any of you noticed that the light reflection can cut of a portion of her body because the background is white? Oh wait! Figmas are all lodged in your brains to make you notice anything!
Student
face, hair and guitar are nice, but the waist. It's smaller than thighs. Joints don't really look natural, so I still prefer Haruhi the figma.

Even I am a Haruhi fan, I am not interested in getting this........indeed she look kinda weird....

she has a thin body so why is it that much? maybe there extra its soo small compared to the figure haruhi...

Geez, what is up with people's negative attitude against the Revoltech Fraulein series? The joints are just as badly exposed as a Figma figure. Don't see nothing weird with the proportions. My only actual concern is the quality control of the product once it's out (please, no more joints falling off).
MIS
One of the few unbiased opinions. It's good to see some people are still using their heads.

its actually the oposite. That sounds more biased than most. I've never heard of this company. I think id stay with goodsmile.

Technically its Max Factory who produce the Figma. But they blur into one really.
MIS
I don't know if you're trolling, but that didn't make sense... Tell me what is biased about the comment in detail. Read more carefully this time.
http://quentinlau.blogspot.com
I have seen a lot of negative comments on this from ToysDaily forum. Well, I am always worried about how a character should look good as an action figure with not much clothings or little details on the clothings. This worked well with the Eva suits as they have 'complicated designs' that can hide the joints alright, but for this one it is more than a challenge to hide them off.
I have very mixed feelings about the fraulen version but its the only one so far with the bunny version. Unless figma decides to make one, I just might get this.

I really love the face on this Haruhi and the price is nice too, but that body is so weird looking!

That junctions are horrible. the toe is the worst.

will prefer Max's Figma or Konami's MMS, this one the joint is just too visible and horrible to looks at

She does look kinda weird.
I already have a Haruhi Figma and I'm pretty happy with her, so I won't get this unless I have spare cash. The joints don't really bother me, but the looks do.
Plus the fact that she's in heels bugs me more. That might mean serious balancing issues, since I hardly use the stand for my poseable figures.

well the joints of revoltech is like somewhat improved but I still go for figmas..although the figure is good...
