More pictures of the second figure, Mikuru Asahina, in the “Extravaganza” series of Haruhu figures from Max Factory have recently gone online, showing us a cute and energetic Mikuru with her tambourine.
あさひなみくる げきそうばーじょん/ Mikuru Asahina Extravaganza Ver. will be a 1/8 PVC figure from Max Factory, sculpted by the same 黒田真徳 / Masanori Kuroda that did the companion Haruhi Extravaganza figure and presumably also did the Nagato figure.
This photo of Mikuru has been available for some time now, but the following images have only recently been made available at the Good Smile website.
I think I spy Mikuru’s trademark oppai birthmark in this photo.
I find her awkward foot positioning here to be quite moe, but others might not agree.
This is not the final production version, so I have to wonder about that weird plastic footrest supporting Mikuru’s left foot.
The source images for all three of the Extravaganza figures comes from promotional artwork for the live Haruhi concert event in 2007, Suzumiya Haruhi no Gekisou. Below is the front cover of the DVD:
The outfits were also used on the artwork for a vinyl record release of Hare Hare Yukai:
I happen to own this vinyl, and like so many other owners of this record I look forward to the day when I can find a record player so I can actually listen to it…
A group shot of all three figures from the Extravaganza series.
I believe Haruhi’s figure to be the best overall of the set, even though I find myself drawn more to Mikuru’s moe expression and pink dress more than the others. I think Mikuru’s main flaw is her instrument – a tambourine is simply just not as visually interesting as the elaborate (and stringed) guitars Haruhi and Yuki sport.
Mikuru Asahina Extravaganza Ver. is scheduled to be available in April 2009 for around ¥7,000. International customers will be easily able to pick her up at Hobby Search.

I would say that the left leg is fine, it is twist of the body and position of the lifted leg- that is wrong.
Now that the girls are done...
*clasp hands together and looks up to the sky gods*
Will there be a Kyon and Itsuki?
NO
Why does the dollar have to fail so bad now?
You think dollar is bad? Try British pound! I now have to pay like around 25~30% extra for figma compare to in the pass > <
British pound was like £1:$2 when it was highest, now it's like £1:$1.48
Well, that's the good thing with living in Switzerland : the franc doesn't go up and down all the time like the others currencies...
Want tsuruya
Oh sweet merciful Jesus yes.
omg, asahina <3
no tsuruya??
aww jezz
love mikuru's foot positioning xD i prefer her over haruhi <.<
TTATT...my wallet, it cries for all three figures. But if i had to kill myself over this decision, i would go for...D: i dont think i could choose over haruhi and yuki so ill cut around some edges and get both
DO WANT ALL 3 FIGURES~!!! <3 <3 <3
I plan to own all three of course. Haruhi is far and away the best though. Wish you would post scans of the above images on the channel
Mikuru is looking better than ever. And I'm a Yuki Nagato guy.
Agreed. I'm not normally a big fan of Mikuru, but this one was a must, and not simply for set completion either.
Oh of course they release Yuki last, what kind of faggotry is this.
I'd get Haruhi.. Yeah as you said, the guitar.
Yep, this is one set I'd definitely buy... if I had enough monys... T_T
That leg shouldnt be able to do that....
Moeblobs have no skeletal structure to speak of.
Without any support, I fear Mikuru's leg would start bending after a while.
