Innocentsake Posted July 10, 2015 Once I get home from work I'll be putting in my entry for lovely Mariko. And then the long wait for results Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Savaryne Posted July 11, 2015 This is my first time entering a lottery, ahhh I'm excited/nervous! My friend really wants Kirika and I really want Mariko so we both entered for both.... I wouldn't be unhappy to own Kirika either. We'll see what happens! Good luck to everyone! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oni-Chan Posted July 11, 2015 Entered for Alisa! She'll be my 3rd time entering for a dd lottery so hopefully my luck hasn't run out (im a 2/2 winning streak haha) Best of luck to everyone! ☆ I have more dollfies than my age in years *×* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
foo Posted July 11, 2015 So..... now they want people to resist entering the lotto for a whole 23 days? WTH are they thinking??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ArcticWolfie Posted July 11, 2015 So..... now they want people to resist entering the lotto for a whole 23 days? WTH are they thinking??? Lol so true I might enter for Kirika but I got Sheryl coming up as well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eustia Posted July 11, 2015 I might enter for Kirika but I got Sheryl coming up as well Yeah, I want to enter for Alisa, but I also have to pay for Sheryl. Too close together. >.< Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Innocentsake Posted July 11, 2015 The entry for Mariko has now been sent! Now to wonder how it will all end~ At least if I don't win her I know she will eventually be released again since she's so popular Good luck to everyone! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bubbles Posted July 11, 2015 Maybe Volks has more stock this time, so they made the entry period longer, We can only wish that is the case. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Minuette Posted July 11, 2015 Maybe Volks has more stock this time, so they made the entry period longer, We can only wish that is the case. I hope that this is the case, haha. Given everyone who has entered for Mariko, I'm probably not going to win. Looking forward to continuing my lottery lose streak. |D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SakuraSylph Posted July 11, 2015 Maybe Volks has more stock this time, so they made the entry period longer No, that is not the case. Recall from earlier on in the thread: Volks has restructured all the rules for Dolls Party and the lotteries, starting with this event, so that everyone will receive their doll at the same time. No matter whether you enter via website, Dolpa, or in-store. SakuraSylph Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mangaemi Posted July 11, 2015 So is it more advantageous, if you have a contact that lives in japan, to enter the lottery for these gals now vs waiting for the international after event? I'm just curious if b/c of the timing, if the after event winners will get theres much much later? I dont want to put my friend out if I don't have to but I reaaaaaaally want a fullset Kirika..

XD This is the international lottery event. Don't wait, enter now. If your contact is going to the Dolpa, they can enter twice, once with any one of the Volks shops or webshop, and once at the Dolpa.

-Mei Posted July 11, 2015 http://www.volks.co.jp/limiteddollfie/2015summer_en/ "Higher winning rate privileged entry" :\ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gunter Posted July 11, 2015 http://www.volks.co.jp/limiteddollfie/2015summer_en/ "Higher winning rate privileged entry" :\ That's completely fair to me. You pay to get into the event. You should be rewarded unlike the rest of us who are just lazily sitting around on computers and entering. XD Edit: Add on that the benefit of picking up the doll at the DP has been removed, and I think this is an even fairer trade off. It is smart business wise as well, because you are giving some sort of other incentive to actually go to the DP. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spookyboo Posted July 11, 2015 I put in my entry for Mariko. This is my first lottery, I'm so nervous, i dunno if i can keep calm until August 17th Wilhemina (WS 03 DDdy) Jezebelle (DD Alice Kuonji custom DDdy) Mariette (DD Mariko custom DDdy) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
klein Posted July 11, 2015 I entered for Kirika and Alisa, I am absolutely in love with Kiraka but Alisa is pretty cool too especially with that awesome weapon! My Flickr - Pullip_junk; For list of my DD see my profile Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skaf Posted July 11, 2015 I am absolutely in love with Kiraka So am I! Just entered for both her and her swimsuit. Good luck to everyone! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
misskale Posted July 11, 2015 I'm annoyed because I have to wait until after the 25th when they have the DD festival. I want to see if the mystery doll will be the DDdy Ruri they mentioned on the back of Alna's tour shirt and in Summer Festival Mariko's blurb. I generally really really like the Akihabara girls designed by Kitahara and even though I really love Kirika too, I have an agreement with my husband about the number I can get in addition to my Sheryl (which is one). Unless I "sell" my Sheryl preorder, then I could get both. I just hate the idea of buying Kirika and then likely having to sell her right away (as I'd want to keep her fullset). Especially when the deadline is after the 25th. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
katzilla Posted July 11, 2015 I would love to put an entry in for Kirika but too many existing doll plans unfinished at the moment and other doll hobby related in-comings. I did put in an entry in for her Swimsuit set, however, as I'm in love with how they've done her fairy wing barrette clip and am wondering if it might make a great pair of wings for one of my Pure Neemo customs I've been working on. However, if I can't bring myself to use it that way I will happily keep it as is The swimsuit itself I will hold on to to see which of my other girls might like it ^^ Either way, it's only my 2nd Volks lottery entry so worth a try to see what happens Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mangaemi Posted July 11, 2015 Just to add, here's the link for Webstore lottery entries - they should be up and running in just over 4 hours from now https://www.volks.co.jp/sp_d_009_newdollfie_en/?version=en ok so everyone bear with me because I'm a little slow--- this is for anyone to enter? You *dont* have to live in Japan and have a japanese address this time around? .... i was typing this as I was hitting the "go to next step" button, and I guess that they meant "finalize" so technically I'm entered into it. So if someone can confirm my original question, thatd be great... b/c at least I could change my address between now and then if I did things wrong lol ♥ ★ ✮ ~ Amassing an army of Anime Cuties ~ ✮ ★ ♥ The Family: Sheryl, Ranka, Kirika, Arlex2, Yoko, Snow Miku, Haruka, Student Mariko, Prisma Illya, Akira, Maria, Cirno, Noumi, Asuna Titania, Sakuya on the way: want: Sailor Moon, Miki, Yukiho Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Minty Posted July 11, 2015 I entered for Alisa and Mariko; although I want Alisa more than Mariko. I'm sure my loss streak is about to grow again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SakuraSylph Posted July 12, 2015 ok so everyone bear with me because I'm a little slow--- this is for anyone to enter? You *dont* have to live in Japan and have a japanese address this time around? That is correct. What you see now IS the international "After Event", at least as far as the dolls and other limited items are concerned. With the new rules, the limited items lotteries will all be held in advance of the Dolpa. That's one of the big rule changes. The only things that will be sold at the actual International AE (i.e. after the Dolpa) now is the normal clothes items and the doll body parts -- everything except the limited items. The time to go for limited dolls is right now, whether you live in Japan or elsewhere. SakuraSylph Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wasn't going for any of the items, so I didn't go to read the rules, but this is very helpful. It will take some time for me to get used to afterevents happening beforehand, though.
