Nendoroid Petite: Hatsune Miku Selection Twitter Campaign Reached 2000 Tweets; Half of Campaign Themes are Released

Mar13 by animaster

GSC has setup a campaign to promote their newly announced Nendoroid Petite: Hatsune Miku Selection a few days ago, that says:

We are currently running a special Twitter campaign as a part of the recent announcement for Nendoroid Petite: Hatsune Miku Selection. If we manage to reach 3939 tweets that include the #nenpuchi_mikusele hashtag, a special set of Twitter skins including a background, icon and header image will be released for everyone to enjoy!

… and yesterday, it has reached more than 2000 tweets, so GSC has decided to release 3 out of 6 Twitter themes (or skins, as they called it) to be used to decorate your Twitter profile page.

Well, what are you waiting for? Head directly to the source page to download the cute Twitter themes.

P.S: We chose the Aku no Musume (Daughter of Evil) theme for our Twitter profile. XD

Custom Nendoroid Racing Luka: 2010 version

Nendoroid Racing Luka: 2010 version

Since I saw Nendoroid Petit Racing Luka: 2010 version from the Racing Petit set back then on 2010, I have been dreaming to see Racing Luka in a regular-sized Nendoroid.

Well, it seems that someone is also thinking about the same thing, so there we have it: a custom Nendoroid Racing Luka: 2010 version. I guess her body is modified with Nendoroid Racing Miku: 2010 version as the base design. Apart from the pink-themed outfit, it seems Luka’s headset has also been modified to match the Petit design.

Not a major customization, I know, but she still looks great, doesn’t she? What do you think, Nendonesian? XD

(Thanks for the news tip, Ryan Cheang!)

Nendoroid Petit Racing Miku, Rin, and Luka (2011 version)

Mikatan has finally announced Nendoroid Petit Racing Miku: 2011 version officially today. Similar to the previous racing-themed Vocaloid Petits, this set also has Racing Rin and Luka to accompany Miku.

So … what’s inside? The winning trophy, a bottle of champagne, a pull-back car and the podium stage are included in the package. It looks pretty loaded there, doesn’t it? XD

Another expression and some optional body parts for Miku

Miku gets a special treatment here, as she will also come with an optional second expression as well as a couple of optional body parts (and umbrella). ^^

Kindly visit Mikatan’s blog to see more pics of this adorable set of Nendoroid Petits. Anyway, Mikatan mentioned that the set will be available for pre-order starting tomorrow. I hope this set is a regular release though. XD

Happy Birthday, Megurine Luka!

Jan30 by animaster

Racing-themed Megurine Luka

Yep, Vocaloid2‘s Megurine Luka was officially released on this day, three years ago. As a fan of her, I thought I should post a special greeting for Luka-san, just as I did last year. ^^

So … why am I using Racing-themed outfits there? Well, I simply want to celebrate her Racing Petit announcement as well as her birthday. XD

Nendoroid Racing Luka 2011 (unofficial XD)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MEGURINE LUKA! Wish you more (Nendoroid) loves for the coming year(s). ^^

Note: Sorry for the lack of “birthday party” photos like last year. XD

Nendoroid Petit Racing Vocaloid 2011 Set is Announced in Latest NicoNico Live Broadcast by GSC

Jan29 by animaster

Nendoroid Petit Racing Vocaloid 2011 set

Since 2009, Good Smile ~~Company~~ Racing has always produced a Racing-themed Nendoroid Hatsune Miku and a set of Nendoroid Petit Racing Vocaloid – consisting of Hatsune Miku, Kagamine Rin, and Megurine Luka in racing-themed outfit. When they announced Nendoroid Racing Miku: 2011 version, I assumed that the Petit version would have followed shortly after. I was mistaken, as they did not announce anything at all regarding the Petit in 2011.

Well, it seems that GSR were waiting for the GT victory to announce the good news. Yep, Nendoroid Petit Racing Vocaloid 2011 Set was finally announced ~~today~~ yesterday, at GSC’s live NicoNico broadcast. The set consists of Nendoroid Petit Hatsune Miku, Kagamine Rin, and Megurine Luka, all in their 2011 Racing outfit. The winning trophy, a bottle of champagne, and the Petit-sized Miku BMW are also included in the package, as well as second expression for Miku and the usual umbrella(s). I have no idea whether the podium stage will also be included or not, though. XD

More pics of other Nendoroid displayed at the broadcast can be seen after the break. ^^
