How do I zip up the Dollfie dream bodysuit on the neck?
PearlyStarz posted a topic in Questions & Answers
Hello, I’m very new to Dollfie Dream dolls in the sense that I’ve just gotten my very first one! I’ve looked into buying one for a while now and wanted to make sure that it would be fairly Procter as I didn’t want her to vinyl to get stained so I opted on buying her a body suit and a few other things. The issue is that I’m not sure how to zip the neck up or where to put the rest of it. The suit extends past her neck I thought maybe it was meant to go somewhat into the head but I’m scared it might dance her! Could it be the type of body I bought? For reference I have a Mochi-ashi body type, I bought the suit that said it was for Mdd (it says ver.2on it if taht changes anything) as I assumed that would be the one to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated !!- 5 replies

Hi all, So been meaning to get this review up sooner but here you go. So I've had a bit more time with the Dollbot to have some more thoughts around and I just wanted to some some comparison shots to give you an idea on them. https://www.dollbot.jp/ Here's a link to their website, note at the time of posting they have their fox girl "Kaya" up for pre-order in both "Platinum skin" (closer to standard volks colour) and "Black Diamond skin" (a lovely tan colour) First up is the skin colours. Dollbot's platinum skin is like a mid point between Volks DD Semi-white and normal but with a hint more brightness. Maybe it matches Volks Normal a bit more but didn't seem too far off with semi-white either. So the bodies are very nice in person and has an impressive range of motions. There are double jointed in the knee so you can have them kneeling down if you want. They have the same range of motions as a MDD f3 body except for 1) the knees can bend more due to the double joint, 2) the neck has more range as they expose the joint more, and 3) the joint below the torso gives more range. Like with Smartdoll the torso joint goes just below the bust for better motion and more flattering for some clothes that expose more skin like bikinis. The body weights about the same as Volks MDD however the vinyl is a bit thinner and much softer than Volks. A softer vinyl will make it easier to stain so you will have to be that little more careful but I think they deliberately chose to do that so as to give the thighs a little more squish. Personally I think the softer vinyl feels very pleasant and I think it will be less likely to tear compared to harder vinyl that I have found in other vinyl dolls. Changing hands is another area that Dollbot improved on I think. Taking the hands off the frame of MDD can be a bit of a chore and often I need a hairdryer to warm the vinyl so I can get them free or put them on. With Dollbot they just slide into place and while they come away easy enough I didn't feel like they would just fall off. Overall Volks body does feel that little more sturdier maybe more stain resistant but I was really impressed with Dollbots range of motion and the ease that I could change hands. Both bodies have their own look so it will come down to individual tastes and what you want. I will say I did really like the fuller figure on the dollbot and it does look better than the mochi-ashi at least in that the thighs match the body. I wish Volks created a unique hip piece to blend the moch-ashi legs in. In terms of clothing Dollbot's body will take most things a MDD would wear except around the hips which are closer to DD size. So DD sized panties or MDD sized dresses for example. Dollbot heads are on the slightly larger side of DD heads but will generally wear the same sized wigs. I found that Volks heads fit very well on Dollbot bodies but Dollbot heads were a bit wobbly on Volks bodies and would probably need an elastic inside the head to hold it in place. You just screw this neck attachment piece into the hole in the head and then slide it on to the body. Does make it easier to remove the head from the body whereas with Volks it does sometimes feel like I might break the body or tear the head when trying to pull the head off. Dollbots DB01 comes with an open mouth mod. You can remove the mouth and the tongue. They also come pre-coloured so you don't need to paint them. Maybe they'll release alternative tongue pieces in the future? Hopefully so along with more bust sizes. Eyes - Almost forgot this but I used 20mm eyes. They fit very well but you could use 22mm. You might need to use the 22mm eye tool from volks so the eyes sit better. I think 24mm might be a bit too large. Anyway hopefully that answers some questions. They're excellent dolls that should fit into any dollfie dream collection as another body type. I used a forwarding service to obtain mine as they don't ship directly outside Japan. I should warn that if you do have any issues you will need to communicate with them using Japanese or maybe through your proxy service. Dollbot are a new start up/smaller operation so there may be flaws in the bodies or mistakes made. I found a few micro bubbles on one of the thigh pieces. Easy to miss really but not something you'd see on a Volks body. Also they made a mistake and forgot to send me an extra head I ordered. I contacted them directly with a polite email using Japanese and they were very nice and responded to me within 24hrs. They immediately said they'd send out the extra head shortly with no fuss there but if I wanted the thigh piece replaced I would need to send them the complete body for inspection. If I was living in Japan they would have covered the postage for this but it was a little more complicated with me living in Europe so I decided to just keep the body as it was. It was a very minor flaw so not too bothered really but I would encourage people using a proxy service to communicate if not too comfortable with Japanese. My order was among their first orders so hopefully cases like this would be quite rare. Anyway hope that all helps!! Feel free to ask about anything I didn't cover, these are really lovely doll and I hope DollBot does very well in the future (^__^)y I'll post more pictures later if people are interested Below Volks Arle head on a Dollbot body. EDIT: Just to add a bit I posted about the hands to the main post. The dollbot (DBB) has a smaller wrist joint than MDD so if you were to put a MDD's hand on a DBB the hand would just fall off. You could try using a putty or blue tack maybe to keep the hand on? For the DBB hands they are a very tight fit on the MDD wrist joint and won't fit all the way. However! I was interested to learn that both hand joints can fit on either body type. So you could have a DBB wrist joint on a MDD or other way around!

How long did it take you to change your doll until you loved it?
Chiakisenpai posted a topic in General Discussions
I've only had dollfies since April, so I haven't had much time to experiment and customize my doll. But I find myself wanting to constantly change her appearance and what she looks like. I want to feel 100% satisfied but I'm just not there yet. Every couple weeks I decided to change her eye color, hair, and sometime even contemplate her faceup. So my question is, how long did it take you to fix up your doll until you absolutely adored them? I bought my third Dollfie head recently just to figure out what kind of appeal I am trying to get and see what my style is. I'm just hoping I'll figure out what I like more quickly xx -

It´s been a long time since I posted here. To be honest I still struggle to get used to a forum message board or however it´s called. The last time I posted here was about my hunt for a Dollfie Dream Rin Kagamine doll which I could get. The very next day after I got Rin Volks had to release a Dollfie of Meiko. I thought I was done with Dollfies but oh well.... Thankz to a very lovely proxy on Facebook I could get Meiko but I feel so ungrateful which sucks. I was really excited when I first saw pictures of her. When I got her and compared her to my other Vocaloids I felt like Volks really missed the mark on her face. I don´t know about you but I imagine Meiko as a more grown up character. Her face is visibly rounder around the jaw a cheeks. And she has a big grin. I feel like she doesn´t fit in with the others and I really don´t know how I should feel about it. I´m also open to trading her head for a more feminine and mature one. But I feel so bad for not liking her. These dolls are really expensive and I could get her sooner than people who had to pre order her online. I´m still happy to have her as part of my Dollfie family.
