WOW!!!
Garage kit? This needs to be mass produced! This would make a perfect prototype for a resin statue... I would buy it if I could! Ahh... dreams... Quote:

I've never seen so much detail on a pair of thighs before. Earlier on, when the show is still airing, I had this fetish for Haruhi's hands, as some people called lol, now I think I have a fetish for her thighs, yea

What I want to know is how the guy captured the energy and glow from Haruhi's eyes. The multitude of fan artists have tried and ultimately failed (although there were some pretty good ones). It's kinda eerie, feels like it emits the same aura as anime Haruhi...

I wonder who this sculptor is, I don't think you can call this a garage kit lol, it doesn't look like amateur work at all.

Some garage kits can get VERY detailed so I wouldn't write it off just yet. |

"garage kit" isn't a slur... usually some of the finest custom figurines are "garage kits" ... like this one. "garage kit" is just the hobbyist term for a custom-built model (though at the point people do it for a living, I suppose a better term is just professional sculpting).
And I'm more stunned by the craftsmanship than just "drool Haruhi" .... it literally bursts with her energy. Makes me want to take my modeling efforts and just hurl it out the window. This is godly stuff. Look at that mouth and the teethline in frame 5. And I still can't decide if the hosiery is material or painted on..... and I'm not sure which is more mindblowing.

Made possible by Bubba. But that Haruhi is strictly only for him at this moment in time. |

Damn I feel like taking up sculpting now as my next craft. But I never had much talent in 3 dimensions.

The bad news: the following won't be out until February of next year.
The good news: it's definitely a "must-buy" for me, especially since I'm already collecting the Negima version of these. Haruhi Suzumiya Figumate figurines

Currently the only DVDs out are the ones being released in Japan (R2 region code, in Japanese only, no subtitles). No word on licensing for R1 land yet.
Gah... I'm astonished at the lag time for mass-produced figurines in the manner of the Yuki or Haruhi "specials" we're seeing posted here. They *really* must have been caught flat-footed on the popularity of the series. (still waiting for more of the 6" or 8" Negima figures than we've seen for that matter....)
