baldylox Posted September 27, 2011 That's how I feel about my Saber Alter, lol. Otakudepot and I are going to start a Saber Support group soon so I'll make sure to let you know when we get it going. Yeah, staying true to their characters is one of the reasons why limited DDs are so popular. I think she is a stunning choice, Billy. I look forward to joining you in the ranks of the "waiting". April is really effing far away. Thank you! I'm sure I'll be impressed even more when I see her in person next year. NEXT YEAR......... Billy I gave up counting the girls I own, they keep multiplying and won't stop. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bellatrix Posted September 27, 2011 I opened a split order group to get a Saber Alter. We need a US customer that can get the doll at his home and open her to ship the various items (obviously, the shipping will be paid by the splitters!). ✩ 𝓥𝓲𝓬𝓽𝓲𝓶 𝓸𝓯 𝓽𝓱𝓮 𝓑𝓮𝓵𝓵𝓪𝓭𝓸𝔁 ✩ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zukin Posted September 27, 2011 I'd love to have the Saber that comes with the black dress. I'd be able to pay her off by the time she's supposed to be paid for...but just in case something would happen I shouldn't. She's quite beautiful though, I really look forward to seeing her in April.

DefectiveAngel Posted September 28, 2011 Wow I feel like the only crazy person not taking part in this pre-order. o.O But I am feeling pretty torn on which to go for if I did order. Both versions I think turned out gorgeous. But really any version Saber takes on in DD form is gorgeous. I love Saber Extra's outfit. That red dress is absolutely stunning. I also love Saber Alter, I love WS dollfie dreams, her face sculpt is beautiful, and that new black dress is amazing. I just don't know if I should invest in another DD so soon after getting Rina. I have such limited space to work with that if I do get another girl I would have to absolutely have to have her. It does seem though that Saber Alter is calling to me though. Gahhh I don't know if I should or shouldn't. At least I have until October 30th to make up my mind. Too bad I don't know for sure what dollfie dreams, if any, are going to be released at DP26. If I had an idea and if it was none I wanted I would for sure go ahead and get Saber Alter. But I'm also trying to hold out and see if Volks will release a certain girl that I want desperately to become a DD. *fingers crossed* Come on Volks give momma a Sen-Hime DD.

OtakuDepot Posted September 28, 2011 Otakudepot and I are going to start a Saber Support group soon so I'll make sure to let you know when we get it going. HAHA - this may be a good idea. I just placed my order now and I'm thinking how long it's going to be till we see them.... Will need some support for sure. haha **James Otaku Depot's growing family. “Give a man a fire and he's warm for a day, but set fire to him and he's warm for the rest of his life.” ― Terry Pratchett, Jingo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Saluli Posted September 29, 2011 I liked the alternative eyes better. But I would like a little more blue. But surely custom eyes can help me achieve that look. Summon ritual is over. And finally complete. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
juu-yuki Posted September 29, 2011 comparison picture: you can see it clearly but it's basically just the pupil area that is different. Ah, thanks for that. I though they were the same at first because the lighting was so yellow. It's not that big of a difference. I wish they would show it with white light instead of the incandescent yellow. http://juu-yuki.com Dolly Shop: http://www.lizanna.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dolly Posted September 30, 2011 Oh how nice to see better pics of both pairs! And what a helpful comparison there. She looks a little bit "cuter" with the blue pupil ones, probably 'cause the pupils seem a bit bigger and they have an overall darker appearance for a more doe-eyed look. Ah, Volks, you and your unflatteringly lit DD photos . . . xD At home: Smartdoll Onward & DD Jeanne Wishing for: too many to list! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
juu-yuki Posted September 30, 2011 Volks USA schedule change: http://site.volksusa.com/blog/ Due to the massive interest in this pre-order project, production for Saber will possibly take more than one run. As a result, there will be two shipment periods for her delivery to you. All orders that have already been received by Volks USA since the start of the pre-ordering period until earlier today will still be expected to ship within our originally stated schedule, which would be approximately April 2012. All orders received by Volks USA from now until the end of the pre-ordering period will be scheduled for shipping around June 2012. We will continue to keep our customers updated should any more changes arise. Please note that while specifications for the TYPE-MOON x DD items will be the same for both first and second production runs, there may be some slight variances in batch such as materials used, etc. Thank you for your understanding, and for your continued support of Volks Inc.! http://juu-yuki.com Dolly Shop: http://www.lizanna.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OtakuDepot Posted September 30, 2011 Whew, looks like I got my order in just in time. It's already going to be a long wait, adding a few more months to it will make it even tougher. **James.

Dolly Posted September 30, 2011 Awww, I was trying to figure out my doll plans for the next few months before deciding to pay in full or deposit. I figured there was no rush and was going to order this weekend, now I wish I'd just gone ahead and ordered. Oh well, maybe she will get here for my mid-June birthday. I think I may pay in full just so I can put her out of my mind completely, lol. Guess it is better than selling them via lottery, at least! Will be interesting to see if there are any "slight variances" between order runs. At home: Smartdoll Onward & DD Jeanne Wishing for: too many to list!

iomi Posted September 30, 2011 didn't expect that to happen. So I'll be getting Extra among from the first run of Volks international, but I'll have to wait even more for Alter >_o' from VolksUsa.

dreamcore Posted September 30, 2011 Since you already ordered her you will be fine, Iomi. Unfortunately, I still hadn't made up my mind completely on ordering her, and now this makes me not want to.
