First up for this week’s reviews is the intensely massively popular Figma Hatsune Miku from Max Factory and Goodsmile Company.
It’s a bit strange how I got into Miku… I guess it all started with this Youtube vid: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kbbA9BhCTko
I thought it was hilarious ^_^;;. I looked into Miku more and found out she’s from the Japanese Vocoloid software where you can synthesise (sp?) singing using your computer. Some people have done some amazing stuff with it where even English songs have been synthesised – though it usually sounds all Engrished up, but still cute!
Anyway, long story short, I need anything figurised with Miku. I had missed out on the Nendoroid version (though I have the December re-release pre-ordered). Staying up late night re-refreshing at hlj.com paid off and I have the very popular Figma! (To give you an idea of how popular she is, her pre-order period only lasted a couple hours if that!).
