Snow Miku, Vocaloid goddess of winter, has descended upon Hokkaido Family Mart stores to allow Miku fans the chance to more effectively impoverish themselves in a low temperature environment.
The collaboration, limited to 51 Hokkaido stores, sees Family Mart stocking Hachune negi treats and Meguine Luka booze, along with the expected Snow Miku goods and some excessively cute plushies.
It is set to run from February 6th to February 12th; several additional events are to run during the period.
The promotion follows a series of increasingly successful anime-conbini tie-ups, which have seen national collaborations ranging from Lawson endlessly milking K-ON! to Ika Musume invading Ministop (resulting in some tasty shrimp sushi) – although this would be the first time Miku has managed to insert herself so prominently into a convenience store, it seems unlikely to be the last.

So cute and fluffy...
had a fight with Elizabeth again, Zura?
KATSURA DESU!
ahaha dont even mention elizabeth after that trolling arc in gintama with zura and elizabeth I never laughed so hard and shake with rage at the same time :P
It's not Zura. It's Katsura.
I thought Elizabeth was cute
thats what she sayd
and I thought Elizabeth was manly.
I just remembered that lovely scene of Elizabeth and Sadaharu beating the bloody pulp out of each other.
W00f
I want the big plushie so bad!!!
I WANT!!
Dear ebay,
I understand no one is selling the Snow Miku plushies on your site as of yet, but I'm telling you to take all my monies and buy it for me when they are! Don't make me throw my money at my monitor!
Ebay Snow Miku.... You'll find a lot of entries.
You'll also find a LOT of fakes. It's better to buy it directly from the goodsmile store or from a trusted shop like Ami-Ami or Hobby Search.
damnit. why not europa. i would so shop in a store that have those miku dolls for sale.
You live on a moon of jupiter?
I am a titan resident myself ;p
So there is life on Europa I guess that's another one Aurthur C Clarke got right.
good job spotting the mistake... but i bet he wanted to write europe.
i did...
Europa also is the portuguese version of the english Europe, by the way they couls bring this to Brazil as well, if the promotion runs only for a week lets say, it wouldnt be expensive for the store and I am sure the would atract more people or at least us otakus...
europa is the dutch version of the english europe
actually europa is also the romanian version of the english europe.
Or why not Motaku 96 - he's a snow fairy too
*insert Motaku's grav here*
^_^
but no one lives in Hokkaido!
Why just Hokkaido? I know they're famous for the snow festival and winter sports in general, but doesn't all Japan deserve some of her?
Snow Miku is more or less becoming an annual thing in Sapporo, isn't she?
Is that Luka wine!!! Need. To. Drink.
Luka booze... I'd drink it.
This anon felt warmer already
Someday later, I'll make sure my figure collection consists of that Exclusive Snow Miku..
You should check out the international goodsmile online shop. Last time i checked they had the exclusive Snow Miku Nendoroid for around 4000yen plus 2000yen shipping. I'll pre-order mine before they're gone.
Thanks for that, mate. I'll make sure I get to reserve mine next month :)
The Megurine Luka booze is tempting.
Megurine Luka is tempting. I don't need the booze.
Damn... i wish i had the money to get a Snow Miku Nendo!
They could sell shitbag if they print miku face on it.
Business isn't stupid. Buyers are.
I wish they'd do this to the Family Marts in Taiwan...
Fami-Fami-Fami~
Fami-Fami-Mart~
Marketing assholes have literally dated the merchandise ("Snow Miku 2012") so that in following years, you'll have to buy different ones ("Snow Miku 2013", "Snow Miku 2014"...), or else be scorned as "out of date".
The only thing "different" between the models is the year number.
Um, if you're referring to the nendoroids, you're completely wrong.
I never squee'd before this... and I really hope that was the last time I ever do it.
OK, I lied, I want to see more of this even if it makes me squee again! XD
Hokkaido only? Sounds like a tourist trap to me... If I happen upon Hokkaido, I'm sure I'll fall in the trap..
I want Luka booze!!
I wonder how she makes it? ^_-
I am in Sapporo right now, and you only get the goods at sapporo factory. I literally went to every family mart here and even only one of them was decorated.
They had a bunch of hachune onigiri but that's all, no plushies etc. you gotta get them somewhere else.
Plushies at Sapporo Factory, North 2 East 4!
I sooo want those ....
shut up and take my money !!!!
Limited to Hokkaido ? Ah crap, is there a chance I can get this stuff somewhere in tokyo ?
Me gusta plushies!!
Do they sell shima-pan?
Burst my cute meter why dont ya!!!! =D
Why I not living in Japan!?
