Don't worry, it won't anytime soon. Wink

This might be "for girls" but you can bet the house the boys will be buying this too. Wink

You might as well try to ask that Touhou stop being popular.

Miku is wonderful and I am very glad that she is getting a figure doll. It has nothing at all similar to Barbie who was a joke. Miku is a great expression of creativity and innovation and I enjoy her in all of her permutations very much. Long Live Mku!

It's a Licca-chan. For little girls. Little girls dont buy expensive collector's dolls. You sound like one of those people that complain about the quality of My Little Pony toys.

I love Licca-chan and I think this looks really cute! Sadly I can't ever see myself getting my hands on it because I imagine it'll only be available here via scalpers on Ebay!

Executive: "So, what's next from R&D?"
Underling: "We have a new doll, Licca-chan!"
Executive: "Doll looks like crap. Not made well at all."
Underling: "Sorry sir."
Executive: "It's ok. We'll just position it as being for little girls."
Underling: "Genius sir!"

Right, except Licca-chan has existed for decades. Try harder next time. It's not the first Licca-chan promotional doll of an existing character and it won't be the last.
