Vocaloid 3 was released last year, and earlier this year, a new voicebank and character named IA -Aria on the Planates- (or just IA for short) were added in. Now, Japanese figure maker Aquamarine is making a PVC figure based off of IA's original illustration at 1/8-scale (22 centimeters tall). I'm not too familiar with Aquamarine's track record, as they're a relatively new company, but the sculptwork here looks pretty good ... despite the photos being a bit too bright for my liking. 

Pre-orders for IA should begin tonight at the major Japanese retailers, and she's retailing for ¥9,975. When she arrives in March 2013, will you welcome her into your collection?
