Kahotan announces the Snow Miku 2015 design finalists

Good Smile Company‘s resident blogger, Kahotan, has finally announced the eight*finalists for their Snow Miku 2015 design contest, four designs for Snow Miku and four designs for her pet, Yukine.

For the new Snow Miku and Yukine, GSC and Piapro*are going one with nature with this year’s theme which*is all about the plants which grow in Hokkaido during*winter. Here are the four design finalists for Snow Miku 2015.

Finalist #1: Snowmiku by Kise

Her hair ornaments are made to look like the Japanese Rowan tree. Overall her outfit is based on a ‘dairy’-look, which is what came to mind when I thought about Hokkaido, creating a bit of a ‘country’-themed outfit.

Finalist #2:*~Snow Miku 2: ~snow-in-summer~ by Imoko Chuko

This Miku is based on the ‘snow-in-summer’ flower.

Finalist #3: Winter Bell by Anmitsu

A Miku based on the image of a ‘Lily of the Valley Fairy’. Her hair ornaments and crown both make use of the flower. She has wings with snow flake patterns on her back.

Finalist #4:*Snow Miku 2015 by Taran

Lily of the Valley hair accessories and a snow-drop skirt. Her headset is made to look like white birch flowers. The ribbons all over the outfit are from a Japanese rowan tree. A slightly childish looking outfit.

Here are the four finalists for Rabbit Yukine’s 2015 design:

Finalist #1:*2015 Rabbit Yukine by Daida

Rabbit Yukine with a strawberry and cherry theme.

Finalist #2:*Gentle Yukine by Magu

A gentleman to walk beside the beautiful Miku! His rather fake looking beard is his best feature!

Finalist #3:*Lily of the Valley Yukine by Hayuki

A warm set of colors to warm up the Winter.

Finalist #4:*Flower Lace Yukine by Yuna

The pattern on her ears is a flower pattern.

The fans have the power which designs will become the official Snow Miku 2015 and Rabbit Yukine. Voting begins today, May 16, 2014 during the*Hatsune Miku no Jikan (6th Period)*which will be broadcast live via Niconico*from 19:00- 21:00 Japan time.

Last year’s theme*was Mahou Shoujo or Magical Girl and it also introduced Snow Miku’s magical new pet, Yukine.
