Download Azure VM to local Hyper-V

Question

I am looking for a way to migrate my VM's off Azure so I can run them locally on my Win8, Hyper-V enabled machine. Is this possible? If so can someone point me to a tutorial or some reference for doing so? My research has not found a straight forward approach.

Thanks

Just one information: you'll pay for each MB that you'll download.
