An entry went up at Goodsmile HQ today for the latest PVC figure to be announced in Max Factory’s Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu series, Asakura Ryouko. While it’s looking like a quality figure on par with other offerings from sculptor Koshinuma Shinji (Amiami page), I think I speak for many when I say: where’s the Tsuruya?! After the main trio she’s definitely the most popular character from the show, and she’s got a Nendoroid option built in. The only reason I could see for a delay is that they may be negotiating such an option even now…
At least Asakura comes with a knife. (no more)
Looks like a good sculpt. Ryouko is one of my favorite characters in the cast. Perhaps even more than one of the main trio. Blasphemy, I know. =P
Yeah, a Tsuruya figure would be great. Oh by the way, has an Imouto figure been released/announced? I’m tired right now and can’t remember quite exactly; I don’t think so though. An Imouto figure would also be cool. ;D
“At least Asahina comes with a knife.”
I’d like to see that :P
>>Venio
According to Wave (see the bottom of this page) their next Haruhi series figure will be a Tsuruya / Imouto combo… two birds with one stone. :3
>>Maiku
Doh! Too many Asa-‘s… fixed, thanks. orz
Looks to be a good sculpt. Tempting right now though my wallet has it’s own opinions.
I hope this figure comes to life and starts stabbing people’s legs, a la Trilogy of Terror…
I preordered this along with the Haruhi by Toys Works! Gotta like any that Max brings out, regardless who it is!
Actually, it’d be really cool to eventually have the whole main cast. The main three, Asakura (now getting done), Tsuruya, Kyon’s sister, Kyon and Itsuki. Maybe even Emiri or Sonoo Mori. Yeah, the whole cast! ^^
I hope the Tsuruya comes out well; though she should have at least 4 figures right now (Waitress!!!).
Giving Asakura a knife was a no-brainer, but great detail nonetheless.
And a face-palm Kyon figure would be great(and even an *gasp* Itsuki one)

Awesome! ^_^
After all that talk about her, and now figure news — this is official Asakura week.
