Every Chess Piece Reimagined as Hatsune Miku
The officially licensed Hatsune Miku Chess Series, produced by Tianwen Kadokawa, reimagines Miku as all six standard chess pieces:
- King
- Queen
- Bishop
- Knight
- Rook
- Pawn
Each figure stands approximately 13 cm (5.1 inches) tall and features a completely unique outfit inspired by its chess role, complete with themed accessories and display bases. (Dexerto)
Unique Designs for Every Character
Rather than simply changing colors, every chess piece has its own distinctive design.
For example:
- Queen Miku wears a regal outfit with a crown and royal staff.
- Knight Miku features an outfit inspired by mounted knights.
- King, Bishop, Rook, and Pawn each receive original costumes tailored to their roles on the chessboard.
The result is a collection where every figure feels like its own character while still maintaining Hatsune Miku’s signature look. (Dexerto)
Black and White Versions Available
Collectors won’t have to imagine which side they’re playing.
Each chess piece is available in both black and white color variants, making it easy to distinguish the two opposing sides while displaying or using the collection as a themed chess set. (Dexerto)
Pricing and Availability
Pre-orders opened through Taobao in China, with each individual figure priced at 79 RMB (approximately US$11–12).
A complete boxed collection containing all six figure designs is also planned, although pricing for the full set has not yet been announced.
At the moment, the release is exclusive to the Chinese market, and there has been no official confirmation of an international launch. (Dexerto)
