Happy Birthday, Hatsune Miku!!!! Today (August 31) is Miku’s 4th birthday, and we have 3 new Miku figure today!
Wow!! Here comes Hatsune Miku Love is War!!! Good Smile Company is so thoughtful. They know that not everyone of us can afford the full speaker base set (DX edition), so they make us a poor-man-version. Well the poor-man-version isn’t really so poor man friendly. But still it is a lot more affortable than the DX edition. =P
Personally I’m not a fan of this style of Miku so I’ll just skip this. I might get one later if she happened to be on sale after. XD

——Description from Manufacturer—— An ongoing declaration of war! From the popular song composed by ryo and produced by supercell with illustrations by Shirou Miwa, ‘Love is War,’ comes a 1/8th scale figure of Miku Hatsune in a Love is War version! Her long flowing hair is blowing up behind her, her skirt is also flying up in the wind as she holds a megaphone in her one hand and leans over the edge of a railing, shouting out about her love. It’s a beautiful and dynamic pose that recreates Shirou Miwa’s original illustration perfectly! It’s a figure that represents the war a girl goes through when in love, and the figure itself has just as much power behind it as the song that it is based on! |

I actually like this version more. The giant megaphones on the other one kind of pulls from Hatsune Miku, in my opinion. So, I’ll order this version 🙂
Totally agree.
I’d like the DX, but the 5700¥ extra is far too much of a premium for me. Particularly with the exchange rate so bad and looking worse.
Glad the huge speakers are gone, now I can focus on Miku herself!
