Good Smile Figures

Recently released is this Good Smile 1/8 scale Haruka Amami bikini figure.

Good Smile does the deeds again with this most cutesome bikini figure of Haruka. Seeing this figure reminds me of the episode where Haruka shows Imber her bikini - makes you wanna cringe but cute at the same time.
For those who don't know what I'm on about - the series is Idol Master Xenoglossia which I still haven't finished.

Not much more to add as the pics speak for themselves. Good paintwork and the body is nicely sculpted.
Her penguin phone is removable so you can fit guns and swords in her hand - which leads to todays poll. Do you prefer your girls with swords or guns?

I had already purchased Kotobukiya's 1/8 Haruka figure but I plan on buying this one too ( hopefully along with the Iori and Yukiho swimsuit PVCs). Xenoglossia was just such an awesome show I feel it would be an injustice on my part if I didnt.
You really need to finish watching. The end was done fairly well.

@Anonymous: I was kinda expecting that end, it was the more suitable option for a lovely blasting mechs with teen girls as pilots.
Due to lack of space and money I'm passing now on figures and concentrating on gunpla, so probably the only figure I'll get next will be Kotona
Mandalorian in training + Otaku...
I think I'll pass over this one. Nice but not my cup of tea.

since I saw Needa on this blog it's guns for me... nothing is better than girls with big guns ^^

I do like this figure a lot. Did order it initially for some reason but I think I will now.
Hmm, some girls look better with swords and some with guns, but I still prefer girls with guns. Maid look really cute with guns. Can I say cute and guns in the same sentence...
I think image #11569 would make nice wallpaper...

Guns have the advantage of range, but useless without bullets. Swords have infinite usage, but confined to melee combat range only, and even the best blades will soon become chipped and dull after continuous use. I'd very much prefer girls with both, though I'm a lot more towards firearms. Above guns and swords are precision-guided munitions. I'll leave this one for future discussions.

NO! You just had to ask this question didnt you XD.
This is a hard one! It depends on what gun or what sword she is holding. A sleek katana looks very nice but then again so did that Yoko figure with the sniper rifle. In fact any girl posing with a sniper rifle beats anything hands down (lonewolf here!).
i like swords, specifically katana's, known to be the best swords made.
but the swords in prism ark are nice too ^_^

and oh yeah...i love cute girls with swords and/or guns *heart heart heart*
it's a nice mixture of moe and gar XDDD
never been a fan of girls with guns, just doesn't suit them imo
girls with swords on the other hand... much easier to imagine them releasing their female furies...

most awesome! ^^ but sadly I ain't a fan so it's not on the wishlist this holidays. :D
Hi Dannychoo
your pictures are awesome, crisp and great colors !
i got this figure as well, almost bought the Kotobukiya one (school uniform) but finally decided to wait for the Haruka in bikini from GoodSmile.
I like the character Haruka Amami since the arcade game is out, yet i prefer the videogame's character-design than the one from the TV series, this Haruka figure is the cutest
Student
Hey Danny, you always take really nice pictures of all your figures. I was wondering, what type of camera do you own? I'm looking to purchase a new camera sometime and I love how your pictures turn out!

Girls with Swords, absolutely my favorite!!! I kind like the Samurai/ Geisha fashion style. Was never a gun fanatic, although the only exception would be Motoko Kusanagi, well…with those “guns” who could resist anyway…

Pictures are fantastic. I might have to look into this Amazon Associates you speak of though.

Girls with guns. (you folks spend to much time talking about what you purchased, Danny makes his mind on the topic known in the POLL, ya dig?) Anyhoo, girls with guns, as in the kind of gun you shoot, and hold, umm, well not that either or those other things - real gunz.

a girl with a big gun/sword and smileing never a good combo lol
