Back in July the Miku Expo Taiwan & Hong Kong figure was announced; we now have a painted prototype. Preorders open very soon.
Ooh, she looks really cool! I wonder if it's likely there will be a figure for any of the stops on the 2020 Expo tour?

I love the colors on the tropical summer figure. The racing 2019 figure looks nice, too, from what can be seen--the fuller-looking navy blue outfit is a surprising choice (at least for me since I hadn't seen the design before).

The Miku in 1st pic is bit odd, her face really doesnt go with the body but otherwise it's kinda nice!

I've compiled an easy to view gallery post of the new things from WonFes (only new announcements or updates to figures announced earlier, I've filtered out figures with no updates to them). Most were already in the tweets posted, but I've singled them out for easier reference and included the status of each figure (new product/first prototype/ painted prototype for example). Most of these were included in the tweets exemplar posted, but not all. Images are from GSC's WHL4U gallery and social media outlets of manufacturers and/or figure selling companies.

These DON'T include figures that had no updates (sadly, Racing Miku 2013 Sugo Ouen ver. was one, I was hoping for a painted prototype finally, but no) or garage kits, as they're doujin items and not really what this thread is about).

Out of what we got from this WonFes, I'm looking at 5-6 figures I'll buy (osoba Miku, Shine's Racing Miku 2019 scale (GSC's version ordered already), Racing Miku '19 thai ver., Digistars 2020, Racing Miku '20 scale. Additionally, when the Racing 2013 Sugo ver. goes on sale someday, I'll get that too, Lucky Orb Miku is a maybe.

btw, @Exemplar , try to remember to write down the product names in the future, especially for figures. It makes it show up in searches, and being able to use the search will help you avoid accidentally reposting something that's already been posted in this thread.

EDIT: Forgot the Hand Scale Hatsune Miku, I first overlooked it as a regular Frame Music Girl we all know by now. Hand Scale series seems to be a much smaller product than regular Frame Music Girl (a comparison with Frame Music Girl Sakura Miku here:

I've been calling it a heart rump on Discord and saying Crypton needs to pay my therapy bills for this being subjected to this figure. When I look at it, my eyes just instantly go to her rump like a magnet, it's like a bullseye. I want to splash holy water eye bleach in my eyes and get amnesia to forget ever seeing it. It makes me feel true disgust and makes me feel like people buying it only care about Miku's rump and undies. No real, self-respecting person would wear a dress like that. Ug. So tacky.

I don't mind outfits that show off characters' assets - I think there's nothing wrong with flaunting what you've got. But there's a difference between revealing outfits and an outfit that's randomly got a giant-ass heart RIGHT over your ass cheeks. That's just worrysome, especially considering Miku's, y'know, canonically sixteen. (I know she can easily be aged-up, and that's far from the worst thing she's ever been subjected to, but still.)

100% agree. I lowkey find it strange just how many characters are canonically 16 and 17 (just the cuuuusp of being underage) and who are made very revealing, often on purpose even. Like I was shocked to learn that both SeeU and Sonika are 17, etc. So I typically just age characters up in my head, and have no problem with people doing the same and having revealing merch (a body is a body is a body. I've become way too desensitized to the human form between years of tumblr and science/bio classes). But this is frankly a little strange and it feels like it's just there for people to see what is technically a minor's ass and panties. I don't like it.

I really don't understand how some people have a problem with the Kentaro Yabuki × osoba design. They're not even panties she's wearing underneath. It is a costume designed for car promotion, it's not supposed to be practical everyday wear or anything. I think the costume is cute and the figure has a nice pose, I'm definitely buying it.

io classes). But this is frankly a little strange and it feels like it's just there for people to see what is technically a minor's ass and panties. I don't like it.
Miku is also not human so she can't technically be a minor in the first place, plus they're not panties she's wearing.

Enako seemed fine to do cosplay with it on a livestream and at a motor show

To each their own, of course -- you don't have to agree with me. In fact, I'm glad you like it and I hope that it's good quality and looks nice on display when you buy it! I'm not the type to try to police others.

But I will say, I don't care for the argument that "X character is not human, so is technically not a minor, don't worry about it". That may not be exactly what you're getting at, but in general we shouldn't act like fiction can't impact reality. Displaying fictional minors in inappropriate mannerisms subtly lends towards normalizing displaying real minors in similar ways. Yeah fiction =/= reality, but it's a slippery slope imo. Again, not saying that's what you're saying, just putting it out there as my personal opinion.

Perhaps if we'd like to continue this discussion (it seems like one worth having, if people are interested and willing stay civil) we ought to move it to Unpopular Opinions or General Discussion or something instead of the Merch thread though ^^;;
