There’s still a month and a bit to go before my actual birthday but my best mate Noel decided to surprise me by getting me an early birthday present. Of course he gave me the option to choose which figure I wanted so after missing out on the first run of GSC 1/8 scale Hatsune Miku, I decided I wasn’t gonna miss my chance on the second run (re-release) as it could be the last re-release ever.
I was thrilled when she arrived today from Play-asia. I was expecting the arrival day to be either Thursday or Friday but I’m very happy to get it 1 or 2 days early. ^^
I instantly opened it upon arrival to check if there was any defects. One of the first areas I checked was the paint job around her collar as I remember reading one of Haruji post where his first Miku had a paint defect around there. Secondly, I checked her hair and lastly her body. Overall, all looks good. ^^
While she was already out, I took a few snaps just to enjoy the moment. I will do a proper review when I get back. ^^
Once again Noel, u surprised me. Your an awesome mate to have around and I thank you from the bottom of my heart. ^^d

Wow nice gift! And you even got to choose it to. If I was going to buy a figure for my friends, it would be a NSFW type of variety…

that’s an awesome birthday present. I don’t have any otaku friends outside of the internet so that wouldn’t happen for me XD good choice, she looks great, I should have ordered her for the first wave but I was too blinded by waiting for the figma release.

@Snark
Knowing who’s ur true friends is the most important factor overall. ^^
@Blowfish
I’m leaving that when I do the review, but yes, I did check it out. My eyes are pervs after all. lol
@Panther
U can never stop asking if u try. ^^
@Acesan
hahaha. A present to remember IMO. xD
@Haruji
I would suggest sell it. I’m sure someone would bid for it on ebay.
@suki
It’s not my b’day yet but thanks. =D
@James
Thanks James. How come u didn’t get her?
@noel
hahaha, Thanks again mate.
Now that’s a picture moment u must show me. Wouldn’t that be ur only figure in pantsu mode? :P
@Persocom
HLJ and Play-asia still has her available so be quick. She’s a must have for every miku fan out there.
@reijin
Well at least u secured her. Don’t forget to check her pantsu out. xD
@Rin
Well, if u secured then ur safe. ^^
@meronpan
Beer taste better with miku by ur side. =D

Wah~ Awesome gift~ x3
And I don’t think I’ve ever seen the box, lol, looks cool :3
How early is it exactly~? hehe
My 2 guy friends and I tend to shout each other dinner lol. We’re just pretty bad at gift giving, especially me ^^; Guys are hard to shop for, especially when they earn more than me xD;
My 2 girl friends [who I met at church] on the other hand are generally happy with either anything cute [of which I find so easy to shop for, they don't know my secret shops, fufufu~], or in the case of one of them, any kind of make up.
