While not primarily a figure event, a few makers set up shop at this weekend’s Tokyo International Anime Fair, Goodsmile included. The biggest new item announced today at their booth was a Figma Hatsune Miku action figure, from Crypton’s Vocaloid2 virtual idol line; we don’t know anything beyond the photos yet, but from the looks of it we’ve got another crazy hot item on our hands. Moeyo! Akibajin blog has a look as well, which also includes a color shot of Goodsmile’s 1/8 Hatsune Miku PVC that we scooped back at Wonder Festival. We’ll be on the lookout for further details on both figures as well as other figure fallout from TAF. (no more)
Hopefully GSC get their heads out of the sand this time with the Miku PVC, unlike with the release of their Shuraki line. They really must account for the severe fanbase she has.
Yeah, apparently their Miku Nendoroid got over 50,000 preorders (!!). I think they have a clue this time…
