Wcloudx (kumo)'s Blog – Ramblings about Figures, Gunpla, & More!!

This next review will be “Nendoroid-Petit Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu #02” by Good Smile Company, and also the first figure review of the month ^^

This 2nd set is the follow up of the previous “Nendoroid-Petit Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu #01” release, also by Good Smile Company. Just like before, this box set contains 12 figures; 5 different character figures with 2 versions each, a Secret Figure, and a random extra figure. Each standing around 6-7cm. The only difference is that we have a different line up now. We are getting Ryoko and Kyon’s Sister this time, instead of Kyon and Tsuraya-san. Haruhi, Mikuru, and Yuki are still included in this set.

As for the Secret Figure, we are getting Mikuru in her Frog costume, which most of you might already know ^^;

So how about quality? Are there any improvement compared to the first one? Absolutely!! ^^ For those who owned the 1st set (including me :p), you might be complaining about lots of stuffs, which include defection, parts easily coming off, durability, etc. Rest assured!! All of those are history now!!^^

I’m quite impressed with all the improvements they have made with this set. All the parts and joints are now firmly fit and won’t come off easily. The figure also came out as a whole when you open the box now, unlike the 1st one which comes in pieces. Colour and paint job looks crisp now ^^ Durability wise, it looks much stronger now. You can really feel the weight ^^ As for details, I won’t say much, really ^^ It’s quite understandable, but for a 500 Yen figure, GSC really did wonderful on these ^^

Alright, on with the shots~

Found this image over at Figure/GK, just after Figma Saber was released.

I like Figma Saber‘s face better than Revoltech’s, but that’s just my preference anyway ^^; I don’t own a Revoltech Saber, and my Figma Saber still on its way ^^;

Here it is, the review for “Suzumiya Haruka 1/8 Scale” by Good Smile Company, which arrived a while ago ^^

I’ve decided to get this figure to pair up with the upcoming “Hayase Mitsuki 1/8 Scale”, which I’m planning to get also ^^;

Anyway, Suzumiya Haruka is one of the main heroine from Kimi Ga Nozomu Eien series, with Hayase Mitsuki as the other ^^. This time Good Smile Company decided to release her in her swimsuit and this will be my second “Beach” theme figure ^^ OP of the anime below:

GSC really did well on Haruka, as usual~:p The paint job and details, especially the Straw Hat and the “Sandy” Stand, are just amazing. She looks quite provocative in a way also ^^; The body curve is yummy~

The figure is pretty simple basically, and only come with a stand. No other accessories included ^^;

Anyway on with the shots~This time I tried using “Manual” mode and decided to do the settings on my own. Usually I put mine under “Macro” mode, and let my camera do the rest ^^;

Close up of the eyes~^^;
