Tsuruya-san

Shes due out later this month and you can see more of her at the official Good Smile site - Danny's Corner for now but will turn into a blog soon.

For me, shes the sweetest out of all the Haruhi Figma's. You is being getting her?

If you are interested in reading about life in Japan, seeing photos taken daily around Tokyo, like Japanese subculture (anime, manga, figures, Dollfies) then you may want to start delving into the Japan or Figure categories for a start or have a gander at all photo articles.

If you don't have much time now, maybe subscribe to the RSS Feed, Twitter Feed or join the other readers in the FaceBook Page.
Alternatively, you may want to read more about the site.
If you are a regular reader then this message will probably annoy you each time - hide it forever.

This item was posted in the Figures category. You can see more of everything else or subscribe via RSS instead.

I'm afriad that I will not be getting her. Tsuruya-san always annoyed me for some reason.

I still have her on pre-order. Does she come with any accessories besides the extra head? I'm a bit saddened that the later figmas doesn't really come with a lot of stuff, like Nagato did. Mikuru came with nothing besides the figma standards :(.

Hey Danny, the character designs for Haruhi and Shana characters were done by Noizi Ito. How do the characters from the two series look side-by-side as figmas? Do their parts interchange without looking out of proportion?

I've got Tsuruya on preorder- I'm looking forward to her arrival. All the Figma I've bought have proven to be well worth the price. Given the lower cost versus the larger fixed-pose figures, and the fun factor, I feel like I'm getting good value for my money.
