FIGMA # 233 Racing Miku 2013 EV Mirai Ver. + FIGMA EX:Ride SPride.06 Racing Miku TT Zero 13

Miku Hatsune is back and this time she's not only here to take us away with her songs and kawaii look but she's here to break the top speed from the store to our shelves! Racing Miku 2013: EV Mirai Ver. together with EX:ride TT zero 13 is finally here! Gosh! I was so excited that I haven't eaten until I finished checking them both. TT Zero 13’s Miku mascot and a Hatsune Miku GT project x TEAM MIRAI collaboration. One of the most unique Hatsune Miku out there yet! So, Buckle up! Let's start!

  • Box:
  • Figma #233: Racing Miku 2013 EV Mirai Ver. - normal release, box layout divided into three colours [pink on top and black on the bottom]
  • Height: approx 5"- 5 1/2" Scale
  • Figure: Articulated ABS and ATBC-PVC Figure
  • Figma EX:Ride SPride.06 Racing Miku TT Zero 13
  • Manufacturer: Max Factory

  • Accesories:
  • Figure
  • 2 Faceplate - Standard normal face and Happy open-mouth whatsoever face
  • Helmet (With neck peg attached)
  • Water Bottle (hand attached)
  • 2 Jacket Sleeve Part (Widely Opened and Closed)
  • 8 Hand parts (2 standards, 6 extras)
  • Extra Hand Peg (yey! because personally I don't like hand pegs, it was harder to change hands ever since)
  • Articulated Stand
  • Figma Plastic Bag

I'll keep everything short and I'll try to answer some question people are asking when I got the figure:

  • Design: - Miku wearing a silver coloured sports bra with Printed EV Mirai and White Motocross pants with a jacket tied around her waist (unremovable except for sleeves).
  • Colour Scheme - Green, Pink, White, Silver, Black
  • Details: (10 being the highest) 9 out of 10 - Don't get me wrong the paint app was good, but of course some misalign paints are visible you just need to stare a little more.
  • Articulation: (10 being the highest) 8 out of 10 - a slightly different lower torso, the PVC sheet is getting in the way but don't worry it won't get in the way when you are putting her in the bike.
  • Accessories: 2 Face plates? Well, could have been better if there were a serious expression included - the open-mouth one doesn't seems right that Miku is so happy she never closes her mouth while racing lol jk.
  • Is there any similar decal issues? - I found this issue on my SNK Figma's wherein the logos wears off but for this one there's not much to be afraid of. As far as I can see the Good Smile logo found on her back was the only thing that would likely to wear off.
  • Issues? - aside from the "I'm-to-afraid-to-split-her-legs-because-something-is-blocking-it" part the thing I really don't like and probably in other Figma is the peg on the hands - although an extra peg was included.
  • Is the helmet wearable? - Yes, remove Miku's head and a neck peg is included.

  • EX:Ride SPride06 TT Zero 13
  • Manufacturer: FREEing
  • TT Zero Bike
  • 2 More rearset/footpeg [Left and Right]
  • Stand
  • Heat shield (Bike part, not literal heat shield)
  • And here's something interesting - more waterslide decals! with different Brands, promoters, etc logos!

Again I'll keep this short

  • Bike Wheels are made of rubber and rotates 360 degrees.
  • Bike handles are moveable and so as the front wheel.
  • Bike has changeable rearset/footpeg - I don't own a Motorbike so I don't know what it's really called.
  • Bike has additional water slide decal (I mentioned that before right?)
  • Bike Design: Decal doesn't seem to be prone from wearing off
  • Issue: The freaking bike smells - I don't know why could have been the rubber wheels or the applied glue on the decal.
  • Issue: The rubber wheels are vulnerable from melting if not displayed in Room Temperature.
  • Issue: The freaking stand doesn't work properly haha the bike keeps on falling.

Well, probably one of the hardest thing you'll do after you opened both and finished inspecting them are getting Miku on top of the Bike. Bending is hard at the same time scary - don't want to get a broken Miku after all right?

    Notes:
  • EV means "electronic vehicle"
  • Mirai means "Future"
  • *Each Sold separately

Sylvanian Families: Garden Barbecue Set

Original: Sylvanian Families - Barbecue Set

"Hey furry, kawaii chef~ should I sing while you cook?" - Miku

Since those 1/12 Props that can be bought to use for Figmas were hard to find here in my Country, and if I do found one It was really expensive [since it has tax and such]. I was trying to create my own props to do a much more creative photos of my toys. But in order to do so, I had to resource out more. Visiting a local toy store I bumped over the stall of this toys called Sylvanian Families. These are Cute Furry Creatures that live in the Sylvanian ages with props that can be bought separately. They are a little small though, but just to make sure I tried one. The Furniture are a little small, and yes I think they would be best for Nendoroids instead of Figmas. A little small, but the on the other hand small props like plates, glasses, hair dryer, etc... fits fine. And yes, it's a little expensive, so it might be better to plan out first before buying a set.

Sylvanian Families is a line of collectible anthropomorphic animal figurines made of flocked plastic. They were created by the Japanese gaming company Epoch in 1985 and distributed worldwide by a number of companies. - Wikipedia
