cfx Posted April 1, 2018 I post this because while there are the obvious joke things for April Fools' one of these is real and one I have no idea on. Presumably real: As he already mentioned some time ago, Danny is reproducing Gourai and Lelouch specifically to combat scalpers and this states he's making progress on this Presumably fake: Smart Doll Boob Piggy Bank https://shop.smartdoll.jp/products/oppai-piggy-bank Smart Doll Lady Liberty outfit https://shop.smartdoll.jp/products/lady-liberty-set Order your newest Smart Doll and have her appear at your doorstep in 5 minutes with the Dash button https://shop.smartdoll.jp/products/smart-doll-dash I have no idea: Collaboration doll(?) with artwork by Huke Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
direpoodle Posted April 1, 2018 There's also the 80's style wigs, which appear to be a prank, but i actually think they're really cute!! https://shop.smartdoll.jp/collections/hair-styles/products/80s-hairstyle-wigs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Misuka Posted April 1, 2018 Well, I for one hope the Lady Liberty set is real. I think its great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cfx Posted April 1, 2018 Haha, I actually thought the 80s wigs were real! I see now they link to the other items and there is no actual button to order them. I agree, Lady Liberty is really cool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
baldylox Posted April 1, 2018 I'd be all over the Liberty set if he decided to actually make them. My main thing is the outrageous price he posted for the Smartdoll Extra/Manequinn. 450,000 yen? That's $4500 USD! I could buy a decent used car with that! I know it's a false price but still, I sure hope he isn't planning to have one for some other crazy price.....

sinclair Posted April 1, 2018 It may be a 4/1 joke, but be honest, how many of you would get that bank for your change (*cough* Billy *cough*)? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Misuka Posted April 1, 2018 not sure I would get the bank, but I think it's kind of a novel idea to be able to use that area for uh, extra storage. Even if it was a small production. I like the retro wigs too. Only thing I hope is a prank so far is the big-doll price. Everything else I kind of hope is completely real and going to be produced. It's different and creative.

I'd buy it as a silly thing, but not at the 12,000 yen price. Of course it's a joke, but the way it's made with the bottom so you can use it as a bank also means the picture with it as part of Mirai is actually impossible since the internal frame won't fit in it. Of course there could be an alternate version. I missed seeing the large doll price. I don't know what the real price on that is going to be, but it is going to be exponentially more expensive than the 1/3 version, because making it that large isn't as simple as just making everything larger; the skeleton is going to have to be a lot stronger for example. I'm reminded of those very limited 1/1 scale Japanese figures that get occasionally made and as I recall typically cost somewhere around $20,000. So I really wouldn't be surprised if that is the real price. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted April 2, 2018 Looks like the huke thing is real! A BRS smart doll does sound interesting... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cfx Posted April 2, 2018 Another tweet: ...showing the Huke art, the boob bank, Lady Liberty, and the Dash button and says only one is fake. I would presume the Dash button is the fake one then, since we can't actually get a Smart Doll delivered in 5 minutes aside from all the other reasons this isn't really feasible or wanted. Since the wigs aren't mentioned there they should be real too and I don't know why they wouldn't be really. There's another post about meeting with Huke as well.

NeeP Posted April 2, 2018 I was playing around with the Smart Doll site and I was able to add those wigs to my Cart. Niki P.

Jezrah Posted April 2, 2018 Not that the wigs aren't cute, but why is that 80's style?! It looks like Farrah Fawcett hair to me, which was from the 70's. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Perhaps Japan in the 80's, because the description says this: Smart Doll website said: The blonde is reminiscent of Charlie's Angels while the cocoa is reminiscent of the Japanese idols back in the eighties. And of course Farrah Fawcett is right; it was the first thing I thought of before even reading the description. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kumi Posted April 5, 2018 Danny just retweetet this so I think, the "Black ★ Rockshooter 1/3 SmartDoll" will be a real thing PS. But maybe it's still only a joke running circles in the net... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eiko82 Posted April 5, 2018 That could explain why he is staintesting black fabric. Thanks for enlighting me on who she is. I had no idea and googling "trikt" got me nothing XD Living at my place: Rise (DD Rise Kujikawa), Chie (Smart Doll Mirai) and Aisha (Smart Doll Kurenai) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I do own the two RAH BRS's, so this doll will really have to impress me because the RAHs are perfection. Also, gimme Strength, she's the best.

Galvatim Posted April 5, 2018 Trikt on MFC: https://myfigurecollection.net/entry/148740 I get the impression Trikt falls under the GSC umbrella, like Freeing, Max Factory, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cfx Posted April 5, 2018 The figure is GSC anyway; there's a picture of it unpainted from the last Wonder Festival here: http://figurenews.blog.jp/archives/51793018.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Misuka Posted April 6, 2018 Thanks for all the links clarifying who Trikt was. Actually, I want a doll of that 'lavender quartz' character. That would be amazing to see. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cfx Posted May 20, 2018 The 80's wigs and boob piggy bank are now on the "no plans to restock page" https://shop.smartdoll.jp/collections/no-plans-to-restock So the claim they were real was also bogus, apart from perhaps the ones made for the pictures were sold in-store or something. Lady Liberty isn't there though so who knows maybe that really is coming. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eiko82 Posted May 20, 2018 I'm pretty sure the 80's wig was sold. I remember some people buying it. The boob piggy bank definitely wasn't sold. I hope the price on Lady Liberity is a joke O___o Living at my place: Rise (DD Rise Kujikawa), Chie (Smart Doll Mirai) and Aisha (Smart Doll Kurenai) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rosie Posted May 21, 2018 The 80's wig was real, lol. Not bogus at all, it even went up for sale on the 1st of April and I've seen it in the SmD FB group a couple of times. The boobs piggy bank wasn't and I'm pretty sure the Lady Liberty price is a joke, because so many people actually wanted it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
