miffimifster Posted March 27, 2016 Hi all! I'm joining, as I'm hoping very much to bring a Volks Dollfie Dream - Akihabara Girls DDS Mariko - Summer Festival version DD home. I hope to learn a great deal about DD dollies here, and welcome your help. So far, I have been an Asian Ball Jointed Doll collector of resin, for the past 10 years. I am on Den of Angels under the same username. I own a number of resin ABJD's, ranging in sizes from tiny (Pipos/Pukifee) to large SD (65cm boys from Fairyland, and Infiniti Doll). A local ABJD collector also owns two DD's, and was kind enough to show them to me in person. I thought they were gorgeous, and that the vinyl they are made of was of rather good quality, and felt soft and friendly to handle. I've been a big fan of the Volks DDS Mariko sculpt, since the first Mariko Sensei came out. I adore her sad/shy/worried little face. Here's hoping my own Mariko comes home very soon (for my b-day in April). Wish me luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I haven't spent much time here yet, but it sure seems like a nice, friendly place so far. Welcome to you too! I got lucky enough to find a Mariko on Y!J, and have brought her home. She sure is adorable, and I can't get over the cute squishyness of her vinyl design. Hi, welcome! I hope you can get Mariko soon.I also have some ABJD's. But right now, I prefer DD's. Anyway, hope you'll enjoy being here, which I'm sure of. See you around! ^^ Thank you! Yes! I just got her! I'm really lucky too. I still love my resin dolls, but Mariko is a neat new type of dollie to enjoy. I'd really like to get more hands for her, as well as some other extras, like reinforcement rings for her joints, and new eyes. So far, I like this forum, and look forward to being able to post pics of my Mariko. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TechnoHornist Posted June 28, 2016 Welcome! Aaaaaaaaaah, your first DD is Mariko! Congratulations! She was my second DD after a custom DD, though Mariko single-handedly pulled me into this hobby from the moment I first saw her. Even today, she's still the cutest, most adorable little angel I have, and seeing her make people so happy at meet-ups is a treat! Take good care of Mariko, and I await seeing more pictures of her cuteness. Again, welcome! Proud papa of my 14 little angels: Hanako, Mariko, Miku Append, Mirai Suenaga, Ami, Hatsune Miku, Iowa, Snow Miku, Jeane, Celeste, Megurine Luka, Matoi, Sailor Mercury, and Katori!
