Recently, Piapro just released the final details that the Kagamine Twins and the 2nd Hatsune Miku Tamiya Mini-Itasha are now ready for pre-orders.. Before I get into that detail, lets get to know more about what is this Mini-Itashas are about..
The cars are actually a design competition on Piapro’s site to see who can come up with a nice Kagamine Twins and Hatsune Miku Itasha skin for a Tamiya car cover.. For the Kagamine Twins version, the competition began after they released a previous Tamiya Mini-Itasha of Hatsune Miku which I posted a few weeks ago (Click here for the post)..
Well, the winner is actually a person named ふぉるもさん.. This person also did a Itasha design for the BMW GTR car (The 2nd one).. Both looks extremely nice, especially the one for the Kagamine Twins Mini-Itasha..
The design is simply magnificent indeed.. I sure Fuzzy love it as well.. xD
Apart from the Kagamine Twins Tamiya Mini-Itasha, there is also a Hatsune Miku version (2nd Version) that was also revealed recently.. Maybe this was due to either a high demand for the Hatsune Miku version or that the previous itasha’s design was not nice at all, which I pointed out in the post I made about it..
Well, the 2nd version looks way better than the 1st one, thats for sure..
Back to main topic at hand, both of these cars are now open for reservation on Amazon.JP and also at AmiAmi website.. Here are the details for the cars..
