The girls are cute, but absurdly boring. I know we harp on school girls a lot around here, but at least characters like Haruhi have a great personality or the K-on girls have some good designs/instruments. The Love Plus girls come off as boring, samey girls with boring samey designs.
Manaka looks a so-so good. Sure, it's a nice looking figure but nothing really leaps out at you or anything. The overall winner definitely would be the Nene between the pose, adorable 2p bathing suit, and, well, the fact that she has ample cleavage. The highly visible seams are a turn-off, tough.
God, the hype was over a year ago when the Nendoroids were released. Seriously, if you really want one you can easily find them for about 1,400 yen now. I predict the Figmas going the same way.
Where is this now? Oo And I'd be happy if I could find these figmas at a reduced price down the road.
==="The girls are cute, but absurdly boring. I know we harp on school girls a lot around here, but at least characters like Haruhi have a great personality "
Uh, are we thinking of the same Haruhi? >_> Honestly, the character annoyed the hell out of me throughout the series (haven't seen the movie spin-offs or whatever). If it wasn't for generic male lead #2151634's deadpan snarking and the ever-amusing Itsuki (again, kinda bland design that makes up for it in personality), I probably would have just called the series quits.
Croodle - Mandarake has them pretty regularly for around that price, at least they did last time I did a Nendo search a few weeks ago. And the thing I liked about Haruhi was she actually had a personality, yeah it was annoying at times but she wasn't 'cute shy moe girl who gets into craaaaazy situations lol!' like 95% of schools girls seem to be in anime nowadays
Meh, Mandarake really screws you on the shipping with their additional handling charge, though. 1400 JPY manda is like 2000+ JPY everywhere else.
idk, Haruhi was one of the most obstinately one-personality types I've seen. The closest she came to having a second thing was showing jealousy at times when the male lead was attracted to somebody else. Honestly, half the show I was wondering if she was severely autistic or something.
