MDD III Shows "Sold Out" on Volks website. Is this normal?

Recommended Posts

Hi

 

I'm not sure I have put my question is the correct spot, but I just noticed that Volks has their normal skin MDD III body marked as "sold out" on their website. Is this normal? I am desperate for a body and I know the bodies are not always in stock but I didn't expect to see "sold out". I always assumed that sold out meant an item was sold out, like never coming back sold out. Please tell me I'm wrong.

"Sold out" on Volks is totally normal. It's "in stock" that's the strange occurrence...

 

In this case it just means Volks is out of stock for now. They should restock eventually. It might be a month or two, but Volks wouldn't discontinue the MDD body just like that.

Once every few months, they'll restock them..then they'll sell out again in 2-3 days.

Lather, rinse, repeat.

It's hard to know exactly what they mean by Sold Out, but if it's really not coming back they'll completely remove it from the web site pretty quickly. Any stuff that's Sold Out can pop back into stock randomly.

 

They might just have a script that updates stuff that does 'Sold Out' instead of 'Will be Restocked.' Or maybe someone had fat fingers.

Whoosh!! I was worried I would never get a body. I guess I need to keep an eagle eye on Volks site from now on. They don't make things easy!

 

Thanks everyone!

Last I looked (a few days ago) they had all the parts separately, so you could just do that. Get the hands and bust size you want to begin with, too.

I got my DDIII torso yesterday + large hands, I order directly for Volks Dollfie (jap site).

Get their pricing down and search online.

When it comes back up you can check the Volks USA site too. When I assembled the body for my Shion I had to go to both the Japanese and the US sites to get all the parts. I also had to wait 3 months for them to re-stock feet with the internal frame part.

 

I'd also suggest snatching up the various hands when you see them available. I don't know about the MDD parts, but it took me a long time to get the paper/outstretched hands and idol love hands for DIII/DDS Normal skin. Hands in different poses can add a lot of personality when you pose them.


The difference between Dollfie Dreams and Heroin? Heroin is illegal, Dollfie Dreams probably should be.

“Empty wallets, full hearts.” That’s probably an apt description for the effects of DD addiction

You know, I just realized the other day that I can build the body from parts. Unfortunately, Volks Japan is out of stock on the arms but I didn't think of checking VolksUSA when it comes back up. Tempting not to just go ahead and buy what's available now. The waiting is so hard

If you are going to go the parts route I would buy what you can now, and get the arms when they are in stock again. By the time the arms are in stock something else you can get today could be out of stock. When I did my Shion I got everything but her feet, and when I found the feet on the Volks site months later I happened to notice they were out of thighs. Volks only seems to make what they are out of instead of making every part in one production run.

 

For me I just shoved her shins into a pair of boots, and you never knew she had no feet. Granted hiding missing arms isn't going to be so easy, but for the time being you could put her in a long sleeved shirt, or drape a coat across her shoulders to make it less noticeable.

 

Part of the fun of customs is finding the parts as you can and seeing her take shape over time.

Ok, this information isn't giving me a warm fuzzy feeling about my most recent impulse buy. My newly purchased custom DDH01 head is probably going to become my 1st MDD....if I can get a body for her. I haven't paid much attention to the MDD side of the DD experience, so now it looks like there'll be some unforseen challenges ahead. Clothing isn't an issue, we have two SDM resin girls to share with. Ah well, patience is a requirement for this hobby. I guess it will be put to use for this project sooner than expected. I would recommend that we look to other sources for the MDD body if the need is pressing. Best wishes for our success.

It's rare to see an item that isn't sold out or has the "low stock warning" on it unless it has been stocked very very recently. Since i have not discovered any way to tell how long something has been out of stock, keep checking every 1 or 2 days and it'll be back in eventually.

The MDD body was available on the VolksUSA site after it came up in March, but now they are back down until further notice. I'd suggest watching their facebook for updates, and when they re-open again check for MDD.

Volks is still sold out and I'm debating purchasing a custom DDH-01 head. How often can we expect Volks to restock the MDD bodies?
