And now for some Mirai-chan figure talk. You remember from this post that I went along to the Good Smile offices and you also saw Mirai-chans illustrations sprawled across the desk.

I said I was going to make some sort of announcement on the 15th of August. The announcement was actually not for a Mirai figure but for something else that we spoke about at the meeting. Technical issues have been causing the delay of what I wanted to announce but will let you know as soon as I have the "Go" sign.

Now back to Nendoroid Mirai. Mirai will be released as a figure but only if I can produce a forcast that shows 10,000 units being sold. If we price the figure at over 4,000 yen for a Nendoroid then the number of units what we need to sell would be a bit less.

This site receives an average of 50,000 unique users a day - the most this month was 76,042 users on the 6th of August. I am realistic and do realize that only a small percentage of these visitors are going to go for a Mirai figure and I need to build up the user base and get more press coverage before I feel confident that we are going to be able to shift those units.

I have already cleared the hurdle of making good contacts in the figure industry already so I guess all we are waiting for is a report and forecast from me ^^;

When we do decide to go into production, what figure would you prefer?
Bikini-Mirai, Default-Mirai, Maid-Mirai or Nendoroid Mirai?
