Nendoroid Haruhi (Disappearance version) Available for Pre-order

Nendoroid Suzumiya Haruhi (Disappearance version)

Some online retailers have started taking reservation for Nendoroid Suzumiya Haruhi (Disappearance version) today. As you probably know, she has a long hair in this version, which makes her looks different compared to the standard Haruhi. She also includes some extra parts to be used with Nendoroid Nagato Yuki, which has been available for pre-orders previously. Here’s some tips for you: (1) see this post for more Haruhi photos, (2) secure your pre-order for 3500 Yen each, and (3) wait patiently until December. Viva Haruhi-ism! ^^
