After supporting Good Smile Racing’s race car team for 6 years, and their motorcycle team for two, Racing Miku made her debut as the support mascot for Good Smile Racing and TeamUKYO’s bicycle racing team in 2015! The design features Hatsune Miku in a sporty TeamUKYO bicyclist outfit with a Kuota branded bicycle. Illustrated by Taiki, the design is now being recreated in Figma form, complete with the figma-sized Kuota bicycle!

The 2015 Racing Miku is here to support TeamUKYO!

GOODSMILE RACING & TeamUKYO director Ukyo Katayama’s bicycle team is supported by Racing Miku! An all new Racing Miku figma wearing the cycling jersey used by the 2015 TeamUKYO team!

  • Using the smooth yet posable joints of figma, you can act out a variety of different scenes.
  • A flexible plastic is used for important areas, allowing proportions to be kept without compromising posability.
  • She comes with both a cool and composed expression as well as a smiling expression.
  • A drink bottle as well as a plastic model kit for a bicycle with certain parts prepainted are included.
  • An articulated figma stand is included, which allows various poses to be taken.

Good Smile Company’s online shop will be offering the figure for 7800 Yen ($75 USD) starting today, with preorders scheduled to end July 27th at 9:00 PM JST. The expected release is sometime in January 2017. She’s also available from these other online stores:

Want to show your love for Miku in big ways? Now you can with Good Smile Company’s newly announced Nendoroid Jumbo Hatsune Miku, releasing this summer at the 24th bi-yearly Wonder Festival event! Don’t confuse this Jumbo Miku for the previous Family Mart lottery prize figure (based on the original Miku nendoroid), this figure is based on the Nendoroid Hatsune Miku 2.0, and features interchangeable face plates, and articulated joints!

As a part of the Good Smile Company 15th anniversary and Nendoroid 10th anniversary celebrations, the popular ‘Nendoroid Hatsune Miku’ is coming back in jumbo size – standing approximately 27cm in height!

The giant Nendoroid has all the features various interchangeable face plates and can take all sorts of poses just like its smaller counterpart! Even though it is much bigger, the unique form and cute expressions of the Nendoroid have been faithfully preserved creating the perfect anniversary item to celebrate the Nendoroid 10th Anniversary!!

She stands nearly 3X taller than Miku 2.0 at 27cm, and should weigh nearly 20X heavier as a result. Such size and features wont come cheap, however, as she is priced at 15,000 Yen ($144 USD). She will first be available at WonFes on July 24th in a limited quantity of 500 figures. After that, preorders will be accepted online from Good Smile Company’s own online shop from July 24th (4:00 PM JST) until August 1st 2016 (9:00 PM JST). Shipment is planned for November 2016.
