Mikatan has just revealed on her blog that part four of the Cheerful JAPAN! project will be Cheerful versions of the Kagamine Rin and Len Nendoroids. Continue reading for all the information.
UPDATE: Pre-order links have been added. Please check near the bottom for the links.
These two Nendoroids complete the fourth part of Good Smile Company’s Cheerful JAPAN! line (charity products where a set amount will be donated for Japan’s earthquake relief that are announced the 11th of each month for one year). The first product was the Nendoroid Miku Support ver. announced back in March. Along the same lines as the Nendoroid these two will include everything the originals came with, as well as some extras.
For each figurine sold GSC will donate 1,000 yen of the price for aid relief efforts.
GSC’s online store will start taking ALL orders (Japanese and International) on their GSC Online Shop starting on August 8th until August 29th, 2011 (with a scheduled January 2012 release). Japanese orders will also have free shipping. This figurine will be made-to-order; in other words, they will only produce as many as they have orders for, so pre-ordering is your best shot on getting them.
Please note that these Nendoroids will be sold separately, NOT as a set.
One big difference between these and the original run is that the new run will have faces that are compatible with newer Nendoroids!
First let’s take a look at Rin-chan and all the new stuff she comes with!
Next we will look at the adorable Len-kun.
The price will be 3,000 yen PER figurine (taxed in). We will update this post with the international pre-order link as soon it becomes available. Pre-orders are now open! To pre-order Kagamine Rin, click here. To order Kagamine Len, click here.
