When Yuki reads, I wonder what she thinks. How does she process the less literal? Something simple, such as, as warm as a mother’s touch. Most would understand that the warmth was comforting, even those who didn’t have a mother would understand that mothers are supposed to be nurturing and get what the author meant by warm as a mother’s touch. When Yuki reads it, does she think the author means to convey that something was 98 degrees in temperature? She can link up to any satellite and know exactly where she is better than anyone, but she always seems a little lost. Maybe it’s those eyes. They are cute.

Review of Alter’s School Uniform Yuki Nagato
Yuki has amazing eyes in this figure from Alter. The figure is really very simple and clear. No extra parts or gimmicks, just Yuki and that gaze she has, which I’ve always interpreted as searching rather than lacking emotion. Yuki looks like she’s on the verge of emotion.
The base is white with a molded H. Not pictured, because I’m like that.

This is my fourth Yuki figure. While all of them I think are excellent figures, this one shares the same trait as the others in that they yield very few angles for photos. Still, I find the expression on this one engaging.

I forgot about this one , very simple figure but her expression is indeed good .
Surely the most realistic Yuki figure available for now
Great pics too , as always
(last one is really nice , this Yuki is really perfect for portraits pictures)
mmm on her knees you say? haha wow that gaze is simply amazing,maybe tie a rope around you with someone holding the other end so you won’t get lost in them eyes ^^ ,
really love her expression, great short review,simple and to the point
A very expressional Yuki indeed. It’s the details of the eyes which give her this factor.
As I already have 4 Yuki (1 scale, 2 figmas and 1 nendo petit) I think I achieved enough Yuki to consider myself a Yuki fan even though I’m not. xD
James, it might be from new figure is new, but I think it’s the best looking of the Yuki figures, at least as far as her face goes and by that it’s really the eyes.
Roy, nicely put.
Optic, can’t say I’m the world’s biggest Yuki fan (I like her, but not my favorite character in the show, yet have more Yuki than Haruhi), but somehow I find the figures made for her from Alter and MaxFactory have been appealing in some way.
nice review of this yuki, a lil bit better than Max Factory version (better expression
)
This is a really nice figure, absolutely love her expression. Thanks for the nice review, will add this to my buy list
Alter Yuki looks suprisingly good, their Haruhi as well, but since I already have the Max Factory version I didn’t get this. Don’t want to be collecting too many figures from the same series, except Saber ^^
Great picture ! Your shooting honnour Yuki ! I prefer this expression (better than others)
Awesome photography, as usual. What is the material used for the floor/background?
Alter did an excellent job with the details of the face. It gives a lot of life to the figure, which otherwise would probably look rather bland. The same thing happened with Alter’s Yuki swimsuit version figure. Both figures are a good example of how the paint job/finish of a figure can make or break a figure.
Is it me or generally speaking, Alter’s finish is a notch ahead of Max Factory’s? I am eagerly waiting for the Haruhi Gekisou figures, and Haruhi looks amazing, but looking at Mikatan’s blog I get the feeling that the paint job could be use a bit more shading. This is not the first time I think that when comparing Alter and Max figures.

-I’m usually partial to Alter.
-The only one I’m getting from that new MF line is Haruhi. Both Yuki and Mikuru (especially) look odd in their poses.
-It’s some sort of fuzzy cloth, a bit softer and with more fur than felt. I really don’t know though.
-I think I need to modify this theme to nest responses.^^
There must be something about Yuki for this to be your 4th Yuki figure in your collection.
Very nice Nagato, everything seems great, the colors are the pose is amazing but the face kills all the rest ^_^, the expression is breathtaking, simply lovevly *thumbs up*

Thanks for the review. This figure is really lovely, from her pose to the paint but the face is the one that makes this one superior to her other figures. This will be my first figure of Yuki and I really can’t wait to have her.
Yuki has overall had the best figures of the three girls in Haruhi, which is why I think I have that many Yukis. I just get figures I like. Whether or not I’m a huge fan of the character is further down the list. Like with this figure, the expression on her face…the sculptor deserves huge kudos for it.
Although quite simple this Yuki really looks great, I thought about getting her but I just have too many things on my wish list right now.
I want it!!!!!!
I should go out and buy it soon…
It’s a really nice figure!!!!!
Maybe I might have enough in my current budget to buy it…
As always…amazing photos!!!!!!!
nice one!! can’t wait for mine
4th yuki??? i wonder: Alter Swimsuit, Max Fac Witch, and this??? what is the forth?
lol, and i’m still wondering what did you use for the background
I considered purchasing this yuki or the one that’s reading the book (same pose?) but they just don’t do it for me. Most of them aren’t as appealing as I’d like, or give off too much of a Ayanami Rei vibe, the blank stare etc…
I also considered the swimsuit version by Alter, but again eventually chose not to.
The Yuki figures I want aren’t produced so far as I know. Such as the SOS Galactic Patrol Yuki by Bubba or the Witch costume and guitar one also by Bubba. If I had to choose one it would definitely be the latter.
-Aka
BUBBA is so good. It’s a shame that they’re not made into PVC versions.
That last picture is absolutely adorable. You’re right about the eyes, and they look even better up close~!
