Innocentsake Posted June 14, 2013 This is what Volks USA posted on their official Facebook: Figure? Garage kit? Doll? What will we have there?Volks JP will be at "Magical Mirai 2013", Miku Hatsune event in Yokohama on August 30th. This will be interesting! http://www.volks.co.jp/magicalmirai/ Could they possibly be putting out a DD Hatsune Miku at the event? I thought I would post about the event on the off chance that a DD Hatsune Miku is announced. Anyone who can read Japanese should definitely let us know what it says on the site as it updates~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Milkbiscuit Posted June 14, 2013 A DD Miku would be amazing! I only hope it would be a preorder thing and not a lottery because fans all over the world would probably make the odds of winning crazy low. But maybe a Miku scale would be more likely, or even a Miku outfit...

Bellatrix Posted June 14, 2013 On August 30th we will know that :3 I think that a DD Miku is possible... people is getting tired of her, so it would be a good chance to increase the possibilities of launching new merch lines. ✩ 𝓥𝓲𝓬𝓽𝓲𝓶 𝓸𝓯 𝓽𝓱𝓮 𝓑𝓮𝓵𝓵𝓪𝓭𝓸𝔁 ✩ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Choppi Posted June 14, 2013 Oh my gosh, I'm so excited!!! If there's really going to be a DD Miku, I'm SO getting her the moment she pops up! :D And if it's going to be a lottery, it'll be my first time doing one! Thank you so much for posting this news!!

SakuraSylph Posted June 14, 2013 Oh hey nice. Now I have a Miku concert & culture fair to go to. Will do this regardless of what Volks' participation turns out to be. Volks makes figures and models so it won't necessarily end up being a doll.. But it could be. SakuraSylph Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mahoro Posted June 14, 2013 Hope its not a DD. Just leaving that here. But I'm sure volks will piss me off and do it anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Poofiemus Posted June 14, 2013 Nice! Looking forward to event coverage, regardless of what goodies Volks makes. Looking at the Vocaloid Wiki, it looks like we may be a wee bit overdue for solid news on Miku's English version, so I'm guessing if we're going to hear anything on it, it'll be at this Magical Mirai event. That being said, I've actually suspected for quite a while that Volks has been holding off on DD Miku until the English version of her is close to release. Miku's "visibility" has dropped a bit in the past couple years, and the English version will likely catapult her back into high interest again; that makes timing a DD Miku release to be concurrent with the new software version a very smart and timely thing to do--not unlike timing Saber Alter's rerelease and Saber Extra's release with the TypeMoon anniversary. *has bizarre fantasies of DD Miku coming bundled with the English Miku software* In this household, sanity is considered a tresspasser.

Crystaltiger Posted June 15, 2013 I'm excited for this event. If they make Miku into a DD I hope they release her Append outfit too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Poofiemus Posted June 15, 2013 I'm excited for this event. If they make Miku into a DD I hope they release her Append outfit too. Yeah, I'm hoping that Append will turn out to be an outfit, too. The alternative--a separate Append Miku DD, potentially with her own head mold--is just a little too wallet-killing to contemplate. In this household, sanity is considered a tresspasser.

SakuraSylph Posted June 15, 2013 I don't know if it implies anything or not, but.. Today at the June event Volks had a poster located outside the store advertising their participation in the Magical Mirai event. Interestingly, they also had a smaller version of this poster next to the checkout register in the doll section. (but not the other register in the hobby section). Maybe meaningful, maybe coincidence. (The poster didn't say anything extra on it beyond the fact-of participation, which we already know.)

WoundedNight64 Posted June 15, 2013 If we're speculating a Miku, can we assume we're going to get Rin and Luka too at some point? If they released Luka I would buy her the moment she came up. I really wouldn't care about the price too much either. If it is a Miku, I'm sure they'll follow the Idolm@ster route and release a few outfits too. So many possibilities.

archeotech Posted June 16, 2013 another possibility to consider assuming it is a Miku DD is that she might be a special pre-order project like saber and Xenosaga. Honestly though I think it's a bit strange. People have been asking for a Miku DD for years so why now? I would say there are more custom Miku DD's than any other character out there. Well we'll have to wait and see i guess Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well we'll have to wait and see i guess I mentioned earlier that I kind of suspect that if they're doing it now, it's to coincide more closely with the release of the English Miku version--maybe it's just me, but between the comments about the events including stuff about the "future of Miku" and how long that voice bank has been in development, I'm thinking it's likely we'll be hearing about that at this event, probably a demo and maybe a more solid release date. Kind of makes sense to release such a major piece of merchandise to "celebrate" such a major software release. In this household, sanity is considered a tresspasser.

finnleo Posted June 16, 2013 (edited) If I recall correct Project Diva F is to be released in August in english PSN services too, wich was a result for a facebook like campaign. so atleast some popularity stuff has been noted concerning the franchise. So that would be another tide to ride along considering the date. as for a DDS (what id use for a body) Miku .. hmm, Waiting ages to release something isnt a new practice for Volks, they did it with Beatrice, by First putting out Maria, and waiting a full year to come up with Beat. Can only hope they dont decide to put out a Luka too if their at it.. heh. Edited June 16, 2013 by Guest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

white mink Posted July 26, 2013 As popular as Miku is I'd be surprised if they didn't have something doll related for her at such an event. We'll have to wait and see what develops! White Mink Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crystaltiger Posted July 26, 2013 As popular as Miku is I'd be surprised if they didn't have something doll related for her at such an event. We'll have to wait and see what develops! True. At first I was think full Dollfie Dream but if they just release her various outfits I'd be happy with that too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
