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]
My friend and I on different etsy's of course are selling some cute Dollfie Dream Items! First up I've got some cute one of a kind headbands for Dollfie Dreams, only one of each color for sale and at a great price of $2.50USD Each it's impossible not to get them all! Click the images to get to the… [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]
Over a year ago i debated getting this lovely Tsuruya-san figure. I had the rest of the Max Factory Haruhi set, but didn’t feel like i needed Tsuruya-san as well. Plus the fact that at that time i was jobless and broke. I regretted it soon after not getting her since she sold out rather quickly and there wasn’t a re-release announced for a while so I gave up on ever having Tsuruya-san to be with her friends. But lucky me HLJ had a sale and had Tsuruya-san on the list as well!
A Shorter post since Tsuruya-san isn’t that big and amazing and i was feeling very lazy as well. She’s not a POW kind of figrue that just screams at you, but she does add a certain something to the other Haruhi girls. A certain sense of completion that makes it just seem so much better.
She has a cute Nekomimi addition with tail and different hand. But i like her in her Human ver. instead since none of the other girls are animal-like.
Love her long green hair, that’s what stands out to me the most so since they did such an amazing job on her hair. It makes her all the more better!
Finally owning Tsuruya-san makes me want to go out complete the sets of other figures I do own. Such as char from the Shuraki set, Erruru to go with Aruruu, ChuChua Astram from ChuxChu Idol and more. Do you like completing sets? I love the feeling of completion i get when i see them all together! Now i need the Mikuru Culture Festival to double complete the set!

Her hair has really tempted me. So far I am holding out, but I can see the day coming where I have to pick her up ^_^;;

The re-release will be on May but not being a really fan of her. I save my money for future K-on! figures^^.

LOL, I grabbed her off the HLJ sale as well, I just got mines today. Really lovely figure as she appeared in the Mikuru movie and cultural festival cosplay cafe. Great loot.

This Tsuruya version is really great. Max Factory made a great job with her (but I prefer the expensive freeing version…).
Nice shooting, thanks for this reviews!

Once again, nice figure and review! Love the background again ^^ Tsuruya’s hair is so gorgeous, too
Kanons last blog post..New Art Progress
Reason I got her too was the hair. They really did a good job. Then the thighs would be next.
@Darktek13:
yeah i kept putting of purchasing her but the sale helped me make the leap
@ceasol:
oh so she’s getting another release? well on the fact of K-on figures, don’t expect them for some time. It takes very long for companies to announce and make figures from new shows and since K-On is still pretty new i wouldn’t expect it anytime soon
@Twu:
she does look so awesome in how she looks just like she did in that scene in the anime
@Leonia:
i like the freeing sets but the size and price made me decide not to get them, plus i’m not that huge a fan of Haruhi to get that many figures of this series
@Kanon:
her hair is the best part imo
@fdjklajfl:
her thighs and zettai ryouki are awesome as well!
I feel the same about MF Tsuruya, this figure has a certain flow about her that really makes the rest of the girls look all the better. Tsuruya isn’t my favorite Haruhi girl, but of the MF set this is my favorite Haruhi figure. I almost missed out on this Tsuruya too. It took a while to hunt one down and I had a lot of let downs and disappointments along the way but I got her!

But Tsuruya was the best one! I am happy to see you finally got one though…

If i had to pick a Haruhi girl it would be definately Tsuruya-san^^

I always make the effort to complete any set but it really depends how much I’m willing to fork out. I was so proud of myself to complete the entire Max Factory Haruhi set when I acquired Mikuru Culture Festival.
It’s a feeling I still remember today.

I do like Tsuruya but I never cared for that maid uniform. If she were in her school uniform the figure would’ve been a MUST BUY for me. But for now I’m content with Max Factory’s Haruhi, Mikuru and Yuki.
As for figure sets, I rarely ever bother getting all of the figures. I’ve only got Rize and Liu for Shuraki, Sanji/Zoro/Ace for One Piece, Melona/Nanaelle/Tomoe for Queen’s Blade, etc.

Hi, good post. I have been wondering about this topic,so thanks for writing. I’ll certainly be coming back to your site.
So I wasn’t able to find her anywhere, it seems she vanished off the face of the earth in the last week or two :E anyone mind helping me out? Maybe I just suck at searching, but I couldn’t find her in stock anywhere. :<
