Never enough Miku: Sapporo Miku snow sculpture time!

Never enough Miku: Sapporo Miku snow sculpture time! photo

We here at Japanator love Hatsune Miku. Really, we can't get enough of her. So we're more than happy to see Miku make her way into the Sapporo Snow Festival, where she'll bring Vocaloid to the masses, warming everyone's hearts and sculptures to make her way into first place.

Down in the gallery below, we've got some recent pictures of the sculpture as it was being constructed. The festival kicks off on February 5th, so in just a few days we'll see the reactions to the piece of work, along with some of the other impressive pieces that are sure to pop up in Japan's Alaska.

To commemorate this sweet little achievement, Goodsmile Company is doing a special Snow Miku nendoroid that'll be on sale at WonFes. Might want to go to a service like Tokyo Hunter to get the figure, since it's probably a WonFes exclusive.

If you're wondering what that slightly creepy snow sculpture mixed in with these photos is? Well, it's from Setokai no Ichizon. Don't stare at it too long, you might have nightmares.

[Thanks, Ko!]
