Nendoroid Suzumiya Haruhi

I’ve collected quite a big of nendoroids over the ages. In fact, I’ve toned down my purchases of 1/8 figurines drastically in favor of nendoroids. So I thought I start taking photos of them and posting them up.  So let’s start off with one of my firsts. Suzumiya Haruhi.

3 interchangeable faces. 2 different arms for each side, and 6 different hands. 2 arm bands complete the list of parts. Skirt is detachable and optional

She’s supposed to come in 3 standard poses. One normal, one as the Boss of S.O.S., and one as Film Director. But as you can see, you can mix it anyway you want. (actually, I was just lazy when taking the photos)

A closer look at the 2 different arm bands. ( director and boss)

 

My only grouse is the stand used to make Haruhi stand. It might look okay here. But the height is ridiculously hard to adjust. Mine didn’t fit very well, and it was hard to have Haruhi pose with different leg actions. It’s also quite fragile. Mine has cracks starting to appear. For most of my photos I actually used a stand provided from later generations of nendoroid.

Well…. we can’t end the review without a comparison with the 1/8 version from maxfactory. Personal preference? The 1/8 max factory version was very well done. But it’s not so easy to find 1/8 figurines that look nice. Some look terrible, even though I might have loved the character in the anime. Nendoroids will always have this cute factor to them

Here’s a look at the back of the box. Complete guide to the poses you can make. But like I said, it’s up to your imagination. Guess which nendoroid I will take photos of next.
