Shocku and awe!
…
Alright, I admit, it’s photo-shopped. It was posted over Figure/GK, and I almost believed it too, so I guess we all got trolled. XD
There’s no lie in the title, though. Preorders for the real Rin version (officially known as “Kagamine Rin -Nuclear Fusion-”) are now open, and each piece is retailing at 9.8k yen, though Hobby Search is selling them for about 8.9k yen each.
Also, for the benefit of you feed readers out there (and as an apology for the “fake news”), I’ll just consolidate some photos of the figure right in this post, so you don’t have to roam the Net yourself to get a good look.

Seriously, if they fixed the head I would buy this for sure. It may seem like a minor flaw, but trust me, the head is important!
Also, I’d imagine the cable connector on the headphones would look really ugly if you remove Rin from the (magnificent) stand. Somehow, I’m getting the impression that you can’t remove her (which would really suck).
I’m surprised this one’s cheaper than the Hatsune Miku VN02 Mix 1/8 scale figure (which went for about 3k yen more), but hey, can’t complain. =3

These are one f the bet Vocaloid figures out there.
Best Rin figure hands down, can’t wait for this to arrive. So it’s releasing in August, the month of my birthday, just like the first BRS. I expect it to release around Xmas time though.
hmm.. i prefer rin’s meltdown than miku..
the Rin figure looks classic while Miku’s look so blue..
plus! Rin’s face supposedly look serious… just like in her song -_-
