aaircrash Posted December 9, 2011 Hello everyone! I've been collecting figures for a very long time now and after meeting many different people and their dolls I've been interested in purchasing one too. Now that I've saved enough money to actually afford one (give or take) I decided to join here in hopes to become more informed before making a purchase. I don't presume that I'll be very active here (I'm in my final year of high school so the time I spend on the internet is limited and well...I'm not to knowledgeable right now) but none the less I'm looking forward to being apart of this forum Wishing Uzuki Shimamura, Rin Shibuya Owning Miriam (Smart Doll Mirai), Alexia (DDS Marisa Kirisame) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LoveAngel Posted December 9, 2011 Welcome to the forums! I first joined before buying my own DD, but I have to admit that it didn't take me long to get my own afterwards. Have a great time.

XOHimitsuOX Posted December 9, 2011 Welcome aboard For me, i collected a ton of figma's but wasn't quite satisfied, and ended up getting a Dollfie Dream, after seeing how customizable they can be. Do you have a particular girl in interest at the moment? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aaircrash Posted December 9, 2011 Thank-you everyone for the kind welcomes! Welcome aboard For me, i collected a ton of figma's but wasn't quite satisfied, and ended up getting a Dollfie Dream, after seeing how customizable they can be. Do you have a particular girl in interest at the moment? I feel the same, way. I stopped collecting figma's and mostly buy scaled figures now but I dislike that I can't pose them how I'd like... Since her release I've fancied DDS Marisa Kirisame but I can't justify paying her current average price, but I'm thinking about to entering the lottery for Millhiore F. Biscotti when she opens up (though I'm not sure yet, I did enjoy Dog Days and love her character but I really need to think it over for I'm worried I'm just eager to purchase a doll xD).

Innocentsake Posted December 10, 2011 Welcome aaircrash~! Good luck in winning Millhiore from the lottery if you do decide to go for her! Would you recommend Dog Days as an anime that must be watched? I've not heard or seen anything about it till I heard about Millhiore as one of the Limited DDs for Dolpa 26 :3 If you decide against Millhiore who do you think you'll go for?

kai-suteki Posted December 10, 2011 Hi I'm Kai, new to DD and will be buying my first dddy in january (hopefully). I started as a figure collector as well and watched an episode of Danny Choo 8 months ago about bjds. I've been interested ever since and can't wait to order and receive my first doll! I'm already making clothes for her My Flickr BJD Alchemy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

aaircrash Posted December 11, 2011 Welcome aaircrash~! Good luck in winning Millhiore from the lottery if you do decide to go for her! Would you recommend Dog Days as an anime that must be watched? I've not heard or seen anything about it till I heard about Millhiore as one of the Limited DDs for Dolpa 26 :3 If you decide against Millhiore who do you think you'll go for? I don't think I would consider Dog Days a must watched anime, it was cute and I enjoyed the Fantasy aspect personally but the plot wasn't really the best I guess... it was easy to get into with only 13 episodes in the series though. I liked it but I could see how others might not so much. As for if I decide not to get her I'm not sure...I've been looking around and there are many characters I would like to have ^^ but I think I would probably just save up a little longer and try to purchase Marisa!

Mmmm well since it is only 13 episodes I might try watching it once I've finished what I'm currently watching Marisa is a cutie as well so it would be great if you could save up for her!

Yeah, I wish I was closer to Toronto- but I go up there at least once a month usually, for my dads job.
