I'm a huge fan of Akira, and when I first started collecting figures one of the first figures I got was Alpha's Kaneda. The one of him sitting on the red chair. Ever since I got him I wanted the Tetsuo to match, but haven't had the chance to get him. I spotted him once at a con for $40 which wasn't a… [more]

Kyo-Ani's first step into making anime figures was such a lovely success. When Yuki was first announced I was apprehensive on getting her since Kyo-ani never made any figures before. It seems from their recent releases of K-on figures that this first beautiful release was a fluke since those suck,… [more]
Since I've been selling stuff on Etsy I've been looking around from time to time of items of my favorite characters, when I spotted Yoko on this etsy vendor I knew I had to have it! When I saw they did custom items I also know I had to have a Sailor Moon! Yoko is sooo adorable! You know how much I… [more]
So once again on with more Figure pictures. A bit of personal life info… My bf moved back to New York last Tuesday, so I’ve been bored a lot lately. So since i have plenty of extra time on my hands expect lots more figure shoots/reviews since i’ll have plenty of time to sit here and take pictures…
I bought this Haruhi a while back when i had more money at my disposal. Lately i don’t have $160+ to spend on one figure.
No one can deny that this is an amazing looking figure, Look at that rack!
I think one of the things i love about this figure is her stockings. Even the line on the back, I like little detail like that.
She also does happen to have a very nice backside as well.
Another thing i love is the base, the checkered pattern really does bring out something special for this figure.

Her Face is as well another feature that is to be admired. It’s spot on and looks exactly like Haruhi.
Love how they also put strings on the guitar, sadly i dropped it once and there is a part that the paint chipped off.
While i do adore this figure and she’s one of my favorites out of my entire collection there were far too many problems that i had to deal with when i purchased her. First off she arrived broken and then started to lean. It was a hassle to send her back and get a new one, and even when i did get a new one she still was broken. Plus while the quality is amazing, the price is a bit too high and there are places where the quality lacks. Her hands are missing some paint, the shading near her armpits is a bit too much. It was impossible to get her ribbons in and make them looks nice. Plus lately I’m noticing things breaking off and paint chips, things that i don’t experience with a PVC figure. In case you didn’t realize it before yes this is a resin kit… Like there are parts on the guitar that happen to be breaking now. It’s hard for me to say whether or not this figure is good. I paid so much money for the damn thing i want to think it’s the best figure there is and i did say that it’s a favorite. But at the same time i paid SO much for the damn thing I’m disappointed in it’s quality.
Now this was my experience with E2046 a while ago, i haven’t bought anything from them since lack of money but in all honesty they could be much better now in terms of quality and service so don’t use my complaints as a justification on to not buy from them. They are a good site for figure that you MUST have that no one is making PVC figures of. But If say a company such as Max Factory, Good Smile Company or Alter are making a figure and E2046 is making the same figure. Save yourself time and money and go with the PVC instead.

Actually, that’s a pretty classy lookin’ guitar there too.
looking back at your initial write up on her being broken and leaning… that truly is weird that she was leaning.
at any rate, good to see your repairs worked, she’s lookin great ^_^
unless i get a serious bonus, i’m gonna have to make due with my freeing bunny ^^;

Wow I went back and read the original horror story. I made my own resin mistake… I don’t think I’ll ever buy a resin figure again myself either. She does look good but all the work you had to go through just to make her look that way just seems like a very huge annoyance, especially for that price.

I have the same e2046 Bunny Haruhi. How can she be leaning?? It’s resin, it doesn’t lean. She probably wasn’t pinned correctly. For me, resins are defo worth the extra money and time, and the little defect that they expect you to fix themselves. I have similar issues about PVC as that you have with resin
i always wanted this but other than hard to find, it’s expensive too since it’s a resin. but eventually i got myself a Freeing Haruhi bunny. ^_^

Looking back on things, I’m not that disappointed I skipped this figure. It’s still gorgeous every time I see it, but I’m glad I didn’t get it–especially since I’m debating selling a chunk of my collection.

@Rin:
yay! i’m really trying my best on these indoor shoots. I’m trying to fix setting on the camera to try and gt the best results.
@lelangir:
The guitar does look badass
@Meronpan:
Yeah thats what everyone said! But she started leaning and it was bad too
@Persocom-san:
i expect amazing ultra great quality for that price in all honesty
@Keats:
i know! but she just was leaning and badly, luckily i was able to fix it.
@gordon:
I was going to just wait and hope that someone would make a PVC of this figure but i gave up on hopping and shelled out the cash for her instead…
@Deftoned:
just make sure you run the list of figures for sale by me first before posting it on your blog. I claim first dibs!
Hehe, I really like the photoshoot. I don’t collect figures, but I love the photoshoots you do of them, and when you talk about them! I don’t even really remember how I came across your site, but I love reading your new entries, and your room is like… YEY ~<3 I hope I don’t sound too weird, haha. But I just wanted to tell you that I check your blog everyday and I love reading your entries <3 I’m 19, just got in to anime less than a year ago, and hopefully will get my own blog up and running soon!
@mikoto:
Well i’m glad you like it, and it makes me glad that from reading my blog you want to start your own!
Her stockings and the guitar look absolutely amazing!
Its one of the few Haruhi figures i could imagine to buy…
It sucks to hear that you had so many problems with it tough…This is the reason why i dont even bother looking for resin figures since im too afraid that something mght break.
haruhi does have a nice figure, just look at her hot body

I think the photos are great, the lighting really suits it. But dang, I was not expecting a boob shot right after the “continue reading” link. Good thing I’m in my room. -_-’
Quick question, what kind of camera are you using? ^_^’ I’ve been wanting a camera that’s good for taking close shots of small things like figures and the one I currently have is no good at that. And your’s seems to take really good ones.
