LeLeLet's start! Hey! Hey! Visitor number fanlisting? 'A fanlisting is simply an online listing of fans of a subject, such as a TV show, actor, or musician, that is created by an individual and open for fans from around the world to join. There are no costs, and the only requirements to join a fanlisting are your name and country. Fanlistings do not have to be large sites (although some are) - they are just a place where you can have your name listed along with other fans of the same subject. TheFanlistings.org is the original (but not only) web directory for fanlistings, dedicated to uniting the fans.' ~tfl
about vocaloid "Vocaloid" is short for "Vocal Android", which is a software that allows you to imput lyrics, and the program itself will then, sing them back to you. The program became very famous after Crypton released Hatsune Miku (Vocaloid2) on August, 31st, 2007, mainly on the famous video sharing site Nico Nico Douga. The same year in December, two more Vocaloids were released, *known as Kagamine Rin and Kagamine Len (Only Rin was supposed to come out with her demo song, R-side, but a few days later, Len was announced as her twin brother with his demo, L-side, having the same seiyuu but made to be a boy's voice. Both names are a pun on the words "Right and Left"). If you would like to know more about Vocaloid, you can check out the wikipedia article linked here.

【鏡音レン】優しい音色 ピアプロ About this fanlisting 'Try your best!' was approved by TAFL during August, 2008, and was later on approved by TFL under the Computer Miscellany & Internet category. Why the name? Well, no personality is given to the characters of the software [just character design and voice], but one of the impressions I have always had about this character (because he's a singer) is one of a young boy with dreams to be reached. And since he comes with a package of two characters (Rin is the principal part of the CV series), him being her boy's version makes it a little difficult to shine by himself. At the same time, one of his most iconic songs is Ikerenka (イケ恋歌) by LeleleP (even though it is mainly directed to the girl's fanbase the theme is similar), and well, this webmistress writing here has a special affection for Ganbarouyo (頑張ろうよ) by ToraborutaP.
Special thanks to NicoNicoHorizon for beta-testing my english during the creation of this website!
Kagamine Len
The announcement of Len was indeed a surprise to the public, since Rin had already been presented a few days before his character would be shown. His demo song was L-Side (There was also a low key version). Just as Rin, Len was described to have a powerful voice. They were released on December 27th, 2007.
Although quite a bit of feedback on Len's voice wasn't initially so good, the real deal came with the release date and some songs that were uploaded to nico. One of the first songs from Len (and most-welcomed) was Tori no Uta's cover arrangement: ACT2 As of June, 2008 an 'ACT2' version was announced and demo songs were uploaded. 'ACT2' was basically an upgrade to the voice banks, plus it felt cleaner. On July 18th, 2008 ACT2 released and it began to sell instead of ACT1. Those who already purchased ACT1 would recieve a chance to get the update to the voice banks for free. Though it is possible to entirely replace ACT1, it's recommended to have both voices available by hand. While the voice was the main change, the design was slightly changed too:
Design wise ACT2's design worked as a slight change for their clothes and also a correction on the drawing (for example, the hair/face part is obviously different) but besides that:
Some fun facts:
Append During Hatsune Miku's second anniversary, Crypton announced that they were going to release a software called Hatsune Miku Append which was a new package with various voices for Miku, all of them done by the same seiyuu, so during Rin & Len second anniversary it was known that there were more 'append' projects on hand. On January 12th, 2010 wat-san tweeted first a test demo for Len's soft voice, then on February 22th, 2010, another demo was uploaded for Len's soft voice too. By the date (May 2010) there are yet more updates to come.
Merchandising Because of the Vocaloid boom, tons of merchandising and figurines have been made that includes...
PVC Scale Figures
The volks figure was the first one announced for Len during May, 2008, and the release date was November, 2008. The volks figure was sold alongside Rin's with a price of 10,290 yens (around 111 USD) it also comes with an extra hand. The volks website enlists this figure with a price of 10,000 Yens, and it is rather difficult to find nowadays. A review and more pictures of this figure can be found here.
GoodSmile's rendition on Len, this PVC figure is scale 1/8, released during June, 2009 and sold with a retail price of 5,800 Yens (Around 63 USD), special feature is that the shoulder keyboard can be removed. Goodsmile is known for their detailed work and this figure is not an exception, more photos and a review of this figure can be found here.
Nendoroid
The nendoroid figures are SD (Super Deformed) figures made by Goodsmile. Len was announced in mid-2008. One of the special features about nendoroids are the various faces and items they come with. For Rin & Len's release, on one of these figures Goodsmile made a collaboration with Piapro and a contest started to select the third face to come with the nendoroids. In the end the winner for Len's face was the tsundere face, the normal face and singing face were the default ones. A blank face with some stickers of faces that were on the contest was added too. Len's nendoroid comes with an extra arm for his shoulder keyboard and 2 extra feet. It was released with a retail price of 3,000 Yens (around 33USD). It was announced to be released August-October but wasn't released until November-December 2008. A review and more photos for this nendoroid can be found here and here.
Nendoroid Puchis, or Nendoroid Petits, are smaller than normal nendoroids and usually have a variety of them in a package. Vocaloid NendoPetit #01 was announced for release on February, 2010, with a price of 5714 Yens (around 62 USD). Miku, Rin, Len, Meiko, Kaito, Luka, Haku, Neru, Sakine Meiko, Saihate Miku & Hachune (special) were included in it. For a review and more pictures go here.

FREEing released some vocaloid sitting nendoroids even smaller than the nendopuchi's, this time with little cars to ride (Scallion for Miku, Tuna for Luka, yellow Road Roller for Rin and orange Road Roller for Len). The release date was March, 2010, with a price of 1,400 Yens (around 15 USD) per Puchi.
Figma
MaxFactory is famous for making their figma's, which are articulable/movable figures. Len was announced around the same time as the nendoroid and was also released during Nov-Dec 2008 with a retail price of 2,500 Yens (around 27 USD). Len's figma comes with a group of hands (as any figma), 2 faces (mouth open and mouth closed) and his famous shoulder keyboard. A review and more pictures are here.
