Knowing that figurines sale has soared so much over the past few years, Volks Inc., known now for making wonderful dollfies, has decided to a release on the 1/6 Scale Hatsune Miku [Encore Ver.].. Although you might think that this looks similar to the original one 2 years ago (2008), well it is.. Together with the similar pose from the previous one, she now comes with swappable parts to do more epic poses..
Just last weekend, the Chara Hobby 2009 event was held at the Makuhari Messe International Convention Complex.. There are some new and upcoming figurines that the some of the companies have made and I would say that they are a Must-Get for some people like the one above for example.. XD
ALMecha KOS-MOS Ver.4 from Xenosaga III by Alter.
Finally, the day which most figurine lovers + anime lovers have been for.. It is the Summer Wonder Festival (or WonFest for short) 2009 where different figurine and mecha-type companies, from big scale ones like Good Smile Company (GSC) and Alter to small scale groups showcase their figurines and mechas, some of them you see on previews and some very brand new…
Time flies so fast that you would be shock to know that it is already the end of the year.. Even the most anticipated event this month, the End Of Year ‘08 (EOY’08) was just held yesterday and I am very happy that I attended the event..
As some of you might know, I am an avid Hatsune Miku fan (Hence being called Miku Guardian in Team Blue).. Being a Miku fan, I try to find any nice songs by her, collecting figurines of her even to the extent of getting anything Hatsune Miku-related..
OMG, does my eyes deceive me again or has another company made an announcement of a Hatsune Miku figure?? Well, after reality sets in, I finally realize that there will be another figure release of Hatsune Miku in September but it is not by Good Smile Company (GSC)..
It is however announced by non other than Volks who do make one similar figure but it was in Resin version.. Due to it being resin, it cost about 14,000yen during the Winter WonFest..
Now, Volks has started an online sale exclusive on their website for the PVC version of Hatsune Miku, not the resin version..
The 1/6 PVC version will cost about 7,140 yen (tax included) which is about SGD$90.. It will be released this September..
Please visit Akiba Hobby for more info and pictures of the Volks Hatsune Miku figure..
Well, I particularly like the glossy outfit look that this figure has.. Also is the “01″ number imprinted on her left shoulder..
I wish I can get her but due to it being exclusive on Volks website, chances of getting a source to pre-order her would be very hard.. I shall leave behind this Hatsune Miku figure with a heavy heart.. 
Well, let just hope the announcement of the figma Miku will be enough to cheer me up.. ^^
