pikachu Posted August 12, 2015 Entered for Kirika, never entered a lottery until now so here's hoping c: Love Mariko too but her face looks a bit too sad for me looking for: Beatrice head - Mariko Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Innocentsake Posted August 13, 2015 I want next week to be here already Just want to know if I got Mariko or not so I can move on with my dolly life haha Really hoping everyone here can get some sort of good news for these girls. Did they ever show how the earrings work on Kirika with her elf ears? Either there's a predilled hole, or it's magnets, or they're expecitng people to do that bit themselves? Hng, I only entered once so here's hoping. I never saw anything showing how the earrings would be attached There will most likely be an indent on the earlobe to show you were to drill the hole like with Melty & Sakuya. Really wish they had taken more close-ups of Kirika's ears & elf ears to show to everyone. About a week until winners' notifications start coming out!! This is my first lottery and I'm trying not to get my hopes up too high, but it's so hard not to. C'monnnnnn Mariko~~~☆! Ah I wish you much luck! It's a great feeling when you finally win a doll through a Volks lottery Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

D I'm exactly the same, at this point I just need to know if I’ve won Kirika or not. If I do win her, I will keep her and I’m sure I’ll be happy but it will mean I can’t progress with the custom doll project I impulsively started (curse you Mandarake and your ridiculously cheap dd heads). If I don’t win Kirika, it will mean I have the funds to plow full steam ahead into my impulse purchase custom doll project which will also make me very happy. Because I have other doll things I want to do, I don’t think I’ll be too sad if I don’t win, but of course of me part of me still hopes I do win too My new domain and blog is now based on tumblr, you can find me at http://www.aquilla429.com https://twitter.com/aquilla429 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
archeotech Posted August 13, 2015 My girlfriend and I have dubbed this waiting period the Lottery Limbo, where you have money set aside for the lottery but you don't know what the results are so you can't spend anything at all. E.g. doll projects you want to work on, or someone is selling a doll you want. I'd much prefer to get the whole thing over with quickly, I thought the wait was bad with lotteries before but this is just agonizing! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gunter Posted August 13, 2015 This period makes me feel like you are waiting on a pre-order with no promise to get an actual item at the end. (Luckily, not a standard Volks pre-order though.) Lookin' forward to seein' who wins and who gets to crawl into a corner and cry because I feel like the especially long wait makes for one hell of a additional salt in the wound moment for when you lose.

Razzy Posted August 13, 2015 I've been counting down the days until next Monday! This is my first lottery and my husband also entered, so each of us has a chance to win Mariko. Hopefully one of us is lucky but I'm trying not to get my hopes up! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

aquilla429 Posted August 14, 2015 I'm trying to be optimistic, maybe they've made a biiiiiiiiig batch of dolls this time so need the extra time to tell so many people they have won?

Razzy Posted August 14, 2015 That's...really disappointing, wow. It's going to be pretty heart breaking if neither of us wins. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aquilla429 Posted August 14, 2015 I've know people with 4 and 5 entries who have failed to win anything. I had 3 entries for the original release of Melty and we didn't win anything either. I would always assume the stance of 'I won't win', then it's only a good surprise if you do actually win XD My new domain and blog is now based on tumblr, you can find me at http://www.aquilla429.com https://twitter.com/aquilla429 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cauldroness Posted August 14, 2015 Well, it looks like my spotless record of 0 out of 10 may change to 0 out of 12! Oh Volks, at least you're reliable, if nothing else. I always, always, always assume I will lose the lottery because I have literally never won a Volks International lottery, no matter how many times I enter, how many friends enter for me, etc. etc. etc. Doll Photos & Doll Jewelry Sales: Follow me on Instagram!

Minuette Posted August 15, 2015 So instead of waiting around to know if I won Mariko during my very easy mid-shifts next week, I get to wait until my closing shift on Friday! Yaaay~ Or possibly later. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Innocentsake Posted August 15, 2015 Thanks misskale for posting that update! Of course I was sad to see the date had been pushed back since I was getting super excited that the day was almost at hand. At the same time it didn't really shock me either since this is Volks we are talking about Won't hurt me to do more waiting I suppose~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

klein Posted August 17, 2015 I wish they would just announce the results already, even if I don't win I want to know so I can pursue other temptations. I haven't won a Volks lottery in a while, the last time I won was Cirno who I put one entry for which is hilarious considering I entered her almost as an after thought while putting in many entries for Rise who I did not win no regrets though as I love MDD My Flickr - Pullip_junk; For list of my DD see my profile Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Weenie Posted August 19, 2015 Mariko is so cute!!!! I always loved her so much!!! I like Alisa's face sculpt as well, but that new bust piece they use on her just looks weird to me XD Other than that I like her! And Kirika is so cute too!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
