For those who have played the first installment of Hatsune Miku: Project Mirai on Nintendo 3DS, you should have known how cute the chibi Vocaloid sing and dance.
The sequel of the Nendoroid x Vocaloid game, aptly titled as Hatsune Miku: Project Mirai 2 has already been announced for a while, and finally we got a trailer today.
GSC’s collaboration with FamilyMart and Crypton Future Media are still running, and this summer they are going to produce the FamilyMart version of Hatsune Miku, Kagamine Rin, and Kagamine Len in Nendoroid version.
Yes, similar to the previous campaign, you can only get the Nendoroid by testing your luck in a kuji (raffle) with each draw cost 800 Yen.
For those who have pre-ordered Nendoroid Snow Miku: Strawberry White Kimono version, well, your wait is over at last, Nendonesian. XD
Yes, after getting delayed from last month’s release schedule, the lovely snow lady finally gets the shipping dates by GSC: July 25th. Okay, it still about more than 2 weeks away, but at least she will not be delayed again. XD
What do you think, Nendonesian?

Nendoroid Hatsune Miku: Yukata version Natsutsubaki finally gets the long-awaited preview treatment by Mikatan. As we have already known pretty much all about her, I will not go into the details this time. XD
This news pretty much comes as a surprise yesteday, as GSC announced that Nendoroid Hatsune Miku: Yukata version Natsutsumaki and Nendoroid Kaname Madoka: Maiko version will be on sale exclusively at several events outside Japan.
Nendoroid Hatsune Miku is back in an elegant yukata once again!
From the ‘Character Vocal Series 01: Hatsune Miku’ comes a Nendoroid of Hatsune Miku wearing a all-new red yukata! The lovely yukata has a design which makes use of the ‘natsutsumaki’ flower, and her famous twin-tails are just as cute as ever! Even during the hot summer, Miku is ready to perform for everyone!
She comes with three different expressions including a standard smiling face, a charming winking expression and a chibi drooling face for all the delicious food she’ll find during the Summer festivals! She also comes with some extra items to ensure she has fun at the festival, including a candy apple and a balloon yo-yo!
This lovely Miku in summer Yukata is priced at 3200 Yen.
Nendoroid Kaname Madoka is back, but now she is dressed as a maiko (apprentice geisha), officially called as Nendoroid Kaname Madoka: Maiko version.
Nendoroid Madoka Kaname is back, this time dressed as an elegant maiko!
From ‘Puella Magi Madoka Magica’ comes a Nendoroid of Madoka Kaname dressed as an elegant maiko. She comes with three different expression parts including a standard expression, a smiling expression and a gentle expression with closed eyes.
Optional parts include a Grief Box as well as two Japanese umbrella parts. She also comes with alternate sitting parts, which you can use together with the gentle expression to create a cute bowing pose. It’s a different appearance for Madoka, but one that fans are sure to enjoy!
Bringing a lot of parts along, the cute maiko Madoka is priced at 3800 Yen.
Anyway, here are a list of events that will have these two lovely Nendoroids on sale:
For those who cannot attends these events, however, there will be a chance to pre-order them at Good Smile Online Shop starting from 8th July until 5th August 2013. The pre-ordered items are scheduled for October release.
Well, what do you think, Nendonesian? ^^
Aside from the voting for Nendoroid Snow Miku: 2014 version, there are bigger news there: a couple of Vocaloid Nendoroids as part of Happy Kuji Summer 2013 version campaign by GSC and FamilyMart. Wow!
So the Nico Nico Live Broadcast by GSC dubbed as “Hatsune Miku no Jikan” has been broadcasted earlier. There are a couple of Miku stuff there, but we are going to focus to the Nendoroid Snow Miku: 2014 version first.
As you may have known, the live broadcast also served as an election to choose the base design for next year’s Nendoroid Snow Miku. In the end of the live election session, design #8 got the most votes there.
Wearing the witch hat and the cape/coat with crystal staff, she looks pretty plain classic to my taste, but I guess the voters might see her with “simple is the best” in mind. XD
Meanwhile, the election also voted for the best pet to accompany the next year’s snow diva. The design getting the most votes is design #7 – the rabbit fairy. XD
Well, what do you think about the design, Nendonesian?
Still cannot make up your mind about getting this Nendoroid? Well, now you might be able to consider for applying as personal sponsor for Good Smile Racing, as there are more official photos of Nendoroid Racing Miku: 2013 version posted in her official page.
Since 2012, it is a kind of tradition to hold an annual contest to determine Nendoroid Snow Miku’s design with a defined theme. Yep, Nendoroid Snow Miku: Fluffy Coat version and Strawberry White Kimono version are products of that contest in the last two years.
Fast-forward to today, and we are facing the contest run for Nendoroid Snow Miku: 2014 version and this year’s theme is magical girl and pet – it certainly reminds me of that particular magical girl and her contact-obsessed companion. XD
Well, what do you think, Nendonesian?
