Good Smile Company is going to release the Nendoroid No.146 Haru-chan ( 春ちゃん, Spring-chan) action figure from the News Watch9 weather forecast corner of NHK, “Haru-chan’s Weather Tips” ( 春ちゃんの気象豆知識 ). Will be released in April 2011. Around 100mm tall, 3,619 yen.
Wow, this Nendoroid Haru-chan is cute! I really want to get her but 3,619 yen is kinda expensive for me since I’m not really a Nendoroid collector. Well, I’ll wait until her price drop. =P

——Description from Manufacturer—— She’s coming to bring you a nice warm Spring! From NHK General’s Newswatch 9 as well as NHK ONLINE’s popular online web comic Haru-chan’s Weather Trivia comes a Nendoroid of Haru-chan, the Spring Goddess herself! Her long wavy hair and cherry blossom accessories are all shrunk down to Nendoroid size – even the kanji on her head reads ‘Haru’ or “Spring’ is of course included on the Nendoroid. Haru-chan also comes with three expressions to play with, including her standard smiling face, an agitated face for when the Spring thunderstorms come and even a masked face for when she catches a cold or is suffering from allergies. She also comes with a rolled-up newspaper sword, her pet white cat that is hanging onto a carp banner that Haru-chan can ride on, and even her two magical staves – “Sakura”, which causes cherry blossoms to bloom, as well as “Ame yo Fure”, which makes it rain! Let the warmth of Spring take over with Nendoroid Haru-chan! |

I agree with you, she is extremely cute! Such an original design~ The colors are so beautiful, they indeed remind me of spring. The carp banner is cool! XD I’m not planning on getting her for now, but who knows? I will probably change my mind one day… XD;; By the way, she is 3,077 yens on Hobby Search, which is an interesting price IMO.
She’s so cute. Wonder if they’ll have other seasons too.
They have all four seasons. But the Summer and Winter are old men, only Spring (Haru-chan) and Autumn (Aki-chan) are young girls.
Aww, shoot, I guess that means they won’t make Summer and Winter… but I love old men!! 🙁
Extremely kawaii!!
This is so adorable, I want that carp! Lately nendoroids have had a track record of falling in price after initial release though, so Imma take my chances with this one and wait :p
