FGO X Dollfie Dream : Jeanne d'arc and Saber

 

I just got my Saber today and had the exact same problem. BUT..... as I did with my Saber Extra, all you need to do is sand down the pegs from inside the legs and they will slide right into the armored feet. I used some 600 grit sandpaper and it took me about 20 minutes to get them to go in smoothly without getting stuck.

 

 

The big bonus of this is that unlike Saber Extra's regular feet now being a bit loose due to my sanding of the pegs, the new F3 feet have tiny screws you use to adjust the tension on the pegs!

 

Facepalming now for not realizing that myself. XD

Thanks wolf for the great review and baldylox for the really useful tip

Congratulations on everyone receiving their Kings.

I can't wait for volks USA to start shipping their bunch so Hats can send my King to me! I've been waiting forever for this! Just a little more wait~

I just got my first email for Ruler! Still waiting for the email with the payment link though.

 

The emails will be sent out between Oct 15 and 19. Payment deadline is 31 Jan 2019. Deadline for paypal invoice request is Nov 24, shipping also begins then.

It seems that the tracker saying that Altria was in delivery process was an error. She is in customs now. Postal service will mail me a form to pay vat, customs, etc. I'll need to fill it, send it back with a copy of Volks' invoice, then they will mail me the bill. I'll pay it and then they will send Altria to home and to add further insult I'll have to pay for the mailing from Madrid.

 

I'm so envious of you all.

I see the Spanish customs and postal service are even worse than the Polish ones >_<

My Saber is in customs as well. They're gonna send me a letter, then I'm emailing them a payment confirmation and a couple of days afterwards they're bringing the package and then I'm paying the ransom Comparing to what you've described, mogaman39, our procedure seems quite simple

I got the notification email, and then 4 hours later I got the payment request. You all should be getting them any time now.

Clearly they had the same problem with the boots; they used a mallet.

Too bad it wasn't the Baka Hammer.

 

Looking at those photos, I regret not pre-ordering. I'll kick myself harder when I see unboxing photos of Jeanne.

Everyone- be sure to check your junk mail if you’re waiting for a payment email for Jeanne. I saw friends getting payment emails, but I hadn’t received anything. Checked my junk mail and sure enough, the payment email had gotten filed there.

I haven't had time to dress her in her armor, but my Saber is home!

Double the Saber, double the food budget...

Those of you with the new Saber, and a Saber Alter, couple you try the outfit, amour, feet, and hands on Alter. I know there will be issues, I just want to know what I'll be facing. Thanks.

If no one with an Alter responds, I can dress my Kos-Mos up as Altria this weekend. Kos-Mos has an M Bust on at the moment, so the body type is identical.

Very excited, I just paid for Jeanne Now I just gotta wait until she comes home.

 

ps. For Canadians paying with a TD Visa card, I would recommend downloading the TDmySpend app to your phone. Visa tried to block me from paying believing it to be a fraudulent purchase, but once I said it was me, I was good to go!

Delivery schedule is up on the store now too.

If I get a chance, I'll try Saber's outfit on Alter.

I didn't try the entire set, but I did try the armor since that seemed to be the part most likely to have any issues. With that said the bodice is S bust, and I don't think it will fit a DDIII M, but it might fit a DDS M.

 

Armor:

DDIII M Bust: Doesn't fit.

DDS M Bust: Doesn't fit.

DDII S Bust: Fits.

 

My DDIII S is wearing something I can't fit the armor on without undressing her so I didn't try DDIII S, but I expect it will fit, and it should have no issues with a DDIII SS Bust.

 

It's not going to fit Saber Alter without a breast reduction procedure.

 

It should work on Muku, but an armor plated Miku is probably going to be a category 5 catastrophe for your cookie & candy stockpile.

Thanks for checking. Will the dress minus the armor fit DDIII M?

It's sized pretty well for S bust, there isn't any play in it at the bustline.

 

The dress is made up a few parts. The bloomers and the petticoat should fit DD & DDS just fine. The white inner dress is definitely sized for DDS S bust.

 

The blue outer dress is basically open where the breasts are in order to show the white of the inner dress, but I don't think the opening is big enough for an M bust to fit through, assuming that you had something else in M bust size that you could use as the inner dress. I'm not even sure the dress is big enough to fit a DDIII, it's pretty tight on DDS.

 

One note I should make is I don't think the armor would work with Saber Extra's red dress, because of the clasp that holds the corset part on. The breastplate is very snug on the torso, and I suspect that clasp would prevent it from fitting on far enough to allow the magnets to hold the two halves together. On the other hand the red dress should fit Alter even with her M bust, because the part that covers the bust is pretty elastic. I've used it on M bust girls and it just looks like a normal bodice, and if anything putting it on Extra's L bust stretches it so thin it becomes see through.

As far as I can tell there isn't a way to get her sword to fit into the gloved hands without reseating the finger part with a slightly wider grip. Even though the handle of the sword comes apart the two halves still won't fit into the gloves as they are stock. Need to reglue it with some strong epoxy using a dowel as a spacer to get it to set with the right spacing for the sword.

Found it and reviewing it. Thanks!

Customs and spanish post service just send me the tax and import invoice... 262€ (almost 300$), ouch. They give me till the 30th to pay.... Double ouch.
