This Good Smile 1/8 scale figure of Rin kagamine should be up for pre-order at your fave online dealer. Will retail for 5,800 yen and is due out in May. More pics at Good Smile.
Len will be out at the same time and cost the same. Which will you be getting?

Speaking of GSC. I've just been snowed under by an avalanche of SAFS. Help!

  More than happy to help since I'm well trained in removing snow and removing figures.
  
  Must be a false alarm tho, as Danny knows that there has to be fresh Pie to signal my arrival.

Im not into the vocaloids that much, but this is a cute fig. I might have considered buying it if I hadn't already ordered the Gift Yoko. To many figs, not enough money >_<

I want both, since the Kagamine twins combined are my favorite. But odds are I won't be able to get either. OTL
Does anyone else think Rin looks a tad bit chubby? Not that she's fat, but her original design portrayed her as an ultra-skinny girl.

...I'm not helping you, Danny. I've decided not to talk to you while I go mope in a corner.

Speaking of which, was the vote supposed to be between Rin and Len? It seems to make more sense than having it between Rin and Miku. Not to mention how Miku is winning by a landslide...

I want to get both of these as I love the twins and these figures really capture them well. I couldn't just get one.

Visually I prefer Rin's design over Miku. I find Rin more cute where as Miku is more cool to me. But Vocally I prefer Miku (but Kaito is my fave XD)

Vocally I prefer Rin, the voice allows to be easily tweaked for a more refined and natural sound.
