Hatsune Miku, an iconic creation of Crypton Future Media Inc., is a software and character that brings lyrics and melodies to life through her captivating voice. Hatsune Miku has become a household name with her widespread popularity in Japan and across the globe.

Presenting a remarkable collaboration between F:NEX and the renowned doll maker Yoshitoku comes with a Japanese doll figure inspired by original artwork by the talented illustrator Fuzichoko. Embracing the essence of Japanese culture, the figure draws its name “Hatsune” from the first sweet melodies of birds and insects that herald the arrival of a new year, particularly the melodious warbler. This meticulously crafted piece captures the graceful modesty associated with this symbolic term.

One of the standout features of this figure is the intricately designed kimono. The furisode section has undergone rigorous testing to ensure the seamless alignment of patterns across its seams. The addition of gold foil stamping bestows a glorious golden radiance to the ensemble. Employing the traditional yuzen dyeing technique, craftsmen carefully apply the twelve colors for the vibrant green kimono and eleven for the serene blue kimono, resulting in a deep, rich hue that exudes sophistication.

Faithfully mirroring the original illustration, the expression of this figure is a true testament to detail-oriented craftsmanship. Its jewel-like eyes sparkle with life, while the cheeks carry a subtle hint of vermilion, and the cherry-red lips create a gentle and endearing impression. Every aspect of this Hatsune Miku figure has been thoughtfully designed to celebrate Japanese culture and tradition, culminating in an exquisite masterpiece that captivates the senses.
