This week is going to be full of new arrivals, ahah… sorry in advance! (\uff65\u2200\uff65\uff1b) I also still have a post to make about Tracon X and last Friday I visited The Night of the Cats in Korkeasaari Zoo so I have lots of animal photos from there as well. I do wonder when I’ll have the time to get everything organised in this blog, ahah. (;\u00b4\u2200\uff40)<\/p>\n

But anyway, my Amiami August order was available for pick up on Friday at the local PO, but of course I couldn’t pick it up since I was in Helsinki. Sooo I had to wait until today when I returned back home in Jkl. This order contains my 2014 Racing Miku, finally! \u30fd(\uff1b\u25bd\uff1b)\u30ce I pre-ordered her in, like, last year’s November? She was originally supposed to be released in April but lo and behold – GSC had some delays (yet again). (\u30fc\u30fc;) She’s well worth the wait, though, so pretty and detailed~ (\uff61\u2019\u25bd\u2019\uff61)\u2661<\/p>\n

I also got Otogi no Kuni Little Red Hood Koron in the same package, so I opened them both at the same time:<\/p>\n

It never gets boring to open these packages!\uff08\u3000\u00b4\u2200\uff40\uff09<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
Ehehee, the kitty maid outfit is on top~ (*\u0e05\u0301\u02d8\u0e05\u0300*) \u2665<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
I was surprised that Miku’s box was so small and compact… usually they pack figures in these hugeass boxes that have way too much empty space. Good going, GSC! ( \u2022\u0300\u1107\u2022 \u0301)\ufeed\u2727<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
Decided to open Miku first because it’s been such a long wait for her! So pretty~! (\/\u2207\uff3c*)\uff61o\u25cb\u2661 I don’t even like Miku but this figure I fell head over heels for right away!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
The artwork that this figure is based on is GORGEOUS! I absolutely love it, it has to be my most favourite artwork of Miku ever! (\uff61\u2665\u203f\u2665\uff61)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
The box is really pretty~ I love all the different shades of blue and teal! \u2665<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
Not much stuff with her, but she’s so gorgeous that it doesn’t matter anyway! (\u10e6\u02d8\u2323\u02d8\u10e6)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
On MFC a lot of people seemed to disapprove of this Miku because her expression is “too sexy”. While I, totally not a Miku fan, absolutely LOVE her because she looks more mature and sultry, lol! (*\u2267\u25bd\u2266) I’d rather not chuck any money towards this Miku business ’cause there are way too many Mikus everywhere, but I HAD TO HAVE THIS FIGURE! Too beautiful~ (\u00b4 \u25bd\uff40).\u3002\uff4f\u2661<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
I mean… JUST LOOK AT THAT GORGEOUS FACE!! o(\u2267\u2207\u2266o) \u2665 \u2665 \u2665 I don’t understand how anyone can dislike this figure. But then again, I’m not a Miku fan so I probably don’t understand what a “true” Miku should be like. (\u30fb\u2227\u2010)\u309e I’ll be perfectly content with this sultry Miku, thanks!\uff08\u2312\u25bd\u2312\u309e<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
Hnnghh, all those little details and lovely shading and the gorgeous, gorgeous gradient flowy hair! \u30fe(*\u00b4\u2200\uff40*)\uff89 I’m such a sucker for figures in dynamic poses with flowy hair.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
So pretty from the back as well! That hair!!! (\uff89\u00b4\u30ee\u00b4)\uff89*:\uff65\uff9f\u2727<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
And then it’s time to take a look at little Koron! She’s my first Koron~ (\u25cf\u00b4\u2200\uff40\u25cf) I actually like the Ookami Koron better, but I also loved this Little Red Hood’s outfit and I prefer Koron with a smile, so I thought… I’ll just get them both, lol! (*\u2267\u25bd\u2266)\uff89\uff7c))<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
I really love the promo photos of these two Korons! \u00b4\u0348 \u1d55 `\u0348 \u2661\u00b0\u25cc\u030a I’ll translate the story, like I did with Little Briar Rose Lien:<\/p>\n

Red Riding Hood<\/p>\n

A long, long time ago<\/p>\n

In the forest was a small home, in which an adorable little girl lived<\/p>\n

The girl always wore a red cape, so she was called “Red Riding Hood”<\/p>\n

[page2]<\/strong> One day, invited by the sweet scent of flowers, the girl full of energy, put on her red cape and headed alone into the woods<\/p>\n

There were lots of beautiful flowers in the woods<\/p>\n

Little Red Riding Hood sang happily while she walked and a wolf watched her from the tree’s shadow<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

“What a cute child… I’d like to become friends with her”<\/p>\n

The wolf watched Red Riding Hood from further away, in order not to scare her<\/p>\n

[page2]<\/strong> Red Riding Hood was troubled and looked around, but it seemed that she had gotten lost<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The wolf raised her voice to call out to Red Riding Hood<\/p>\n

“Umm…”<\/p>\n

Red Riding Hood, who had turned around, exclaimed in surprise<\/p>\n

“Kyaa! Fluffy wolf!”<\/p>\n

Red Riding Hood hugged the Wolf tightly<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Since then Red Riding Hood and the Wolf became very good friends and lived happily ever after<\/p>\n

The End<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I’m such a huge fan of Sleep’s work (I stalk them on twitter) and I was thrilled when I found out that Sleep would be collaborating with Azone for these Korons! (\uff61\u2019\u25bd\u2019\uff61)\u2661 I love every single piece of clothing~ They’re very cute and multifunctional, which is always a huge plus! \u2665<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
The brown dress has a zipper while the shirt and both skirts have velcro at the back that open all the way. The apron is attached with a snap, as usual.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
She’s so cute! (\uff61\uff65\u03c9\uff65\uff61) Koron has such a happy smile~ \u2665 We’re in disagreement about her name, though, I wanted to name her Kaho but she seems to have other ideas… (\u30fc\u30fc;)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
Her hair was a bit of a disappointment… the curls are very flat and messy already. ~( \u00b4\u2022\ufe35\u2022` )~ I’ll have to see if I can fix that somehow…<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
So cute, though! But what to do about her name, gahh… ! \/(@\uff9f\uff8d\uff9f@)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
Of course I also wanted to try the kitty maid dress on someone and Ayana was nicely at hand, so… cuteness overload! (\uff89\u2267\u2200\u2266)\uff89 \u2665 This dress is so ridiculous, really, but it’s soooo cute!! (\u15d2\u15dc\u15d5)\u055b\u0335\u0316<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I took some test shots of Miku, but only had energy to edit one:<\/p>\n
