Figma Snow Miku 2014 review

~Hello! It's FiguresForU!

Today we'll be reviewing the lovely Snow Miku 2014 figma!


Okay, I must say that this figma doesn't come with much-- the only other extra "accessories" that it comes with are the muffler/scarf and the snowman/woman/diva.

This is a special kind of 2.0 figma, so WARNING: THE HEAD AND PIGTAILS ARE NOT MEANT TO BE REMOVED FROM THE BODY OR HEAD. IF ATTEMPTED THIS WILL BREAK THE FIGMA.

Now that the warning is out of the way, I will talk about this unique figma!
When I first got her, I was stunned at how pretty she looked. The twin tails are so airy and translucent! Oooooo~
But also another warning, the ends of the twin tails are sharp and sort of feel like they can snap off, so you definitely need to be gentle.

I put her in a number of adorable poses, but there was this one violent one I liked which I got from here. It was curbstopping the snowman. Hehehe.

Her muffler is a bit tricky to get on, and when I do get it on, the muffler gets in the way of the sharp little mini devil horns sticking out on the back of her head so her head is always facing down, so I usually leave it off or put it on a nendoroid xD
Her snowman looks so cute! It does look like it can get dirty easily, and its sort of feels like its a wipeboard, so I think if you could you could draw on it and wipe it off xD
But not with sharpie! :O
She comes with her 2 standard closed mouth face and happy open mouth face, and 1 very unique creative one which shows her blushing, and also seeming nervous.
KAWAII!


She comes with I believe about 7 or 6 pairs of hands. Her 2 pairs of open gloved and bare hands, 2 pairs of nyaning bare and gloved hands, 1 pair of bare handed fists, 1 pair of dainty sort of opened hands, and 1 pair of standard open fingers bare hands.

She can nyan if you want her to, too!~


Then she comes with her normal figma bag, extra wrist joint, and stand.
I guess that wraps up my review.

For my overall rating, I would give her about an 8.5 out of 10.
If you ever manage to find a real one floating around somewhere for a good price, I recommend picking her up!

Bye!~


What to do if your GSC figure is defected

~Hello! This is FiguresForU!

Today we are going to talk about what to do if your Good Smile Company figure has a suspected defect, or like a really bad paint job.

Story Mode
I got my first nendoroid, Hatsune Miku 2.0, when I noticed the ball joints were broken on her twin tails, inside the box I noticed it! I didn't know what to do. I tried to repair it, but it was really wedged in there and I didn't have any money to get supplies to fix it. So I looked around support at GSC's site and I found: "Product Inquiries" I clicked on it, filled out all the information needed, attached some pictures of the defect, and I emailed it. I got an email back a few days later saying that they would send me the replacement parts needed with the address I provided. 
Story Mode over

Simple! You just tell them what happened, give them your address (Good smile company is completely safe), add some pictures, and they might send you replacement parts!

Note.) They will not send you replacement parts if you broke the product itself, or if the product is over a year old. You do not have to pay for the parts. The parts come in about 1-2 weeks.


Look what came today! Miku will be so happy.

Thanks for reading! Bye.
