meteorite Posted July 31 The new outfits are incredible! Volks is clearly dedicating more resources to Tawny, with frames now matching the skin and a character release in the colour (Anthy). I hope it comes to Dream Choice soon... Or maybe these are leftover frames from Anthy's production run and I'm totally wrong. 😅😒 1 Moved on to resin BJD Favourite DD: Sakuno Uryuu Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They did matching colors for all the fantasy color girls for the last two years. 58 minutes ago, PlasticJester said: Oooh, the looks are giving me some classic Barbie vibes! I hadn't thought about that, but that's a really good point. The movie was a pretty big deal and the face-ups do look Barbie inspired. 1 The difference between Dollfie Dreams and Heroin?

Gallye Posted July 31 I never knew before how much I wanted somebody to make Dollfie Icons - especially the new smiling ones - into Jem and the Holograms dolls. 😄 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PlasticJester Posted August 10 Quick question as I browse the Dollfie Icon site- how many unique headsculpts are there? It seems to me Clover-Lilac-Serra-Terra share a regular and "romantic" (half-lidded) sculpt, and Nikki and Aisha have a new open-mouth sculpt? Is that true, or am I missing something obvious? I'm assuming the fantasy ears some of them have clip on like the Dream Choice ears do? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BeyondTime Posted August 10 2 hours ago, PlasticJester said: Nikki and Aisha have a new open-mouth sculpt? I think the new sculpts added 3 years ago were for Tawny Skin and Petal Skin; those are Aisha and Nikki's sculpts. The rest were all introduced in 2019.

baldylox Posted September 19 Just to add a bit of info for anyone who has been wondering.... I spoke with Mikey, the lead on the team that makes the Icons, a few times about several different things but one thing I asked her really stuck out to me. I asked if she knew how many Icons in total had been made and sold since 2019. She told me that she didn't have a definitive number on them but that she was pretty sure the total including this Dolpa was right around or just under the 500 mark. 500 Icons total in the world across all skin tones and head sculpts since they first arrived in 2019. So in 5 years that's only about 100 Icons max each year. I said that number seems a bit high since most of the time they only offer them once or twice a year. But she said every time they offer them there are between 20 and 40 of them, higher numbers especially at LA Dolpas. After Events also usually see 20 or more. She also said she wasn't positive on these numbers and was only estimating high so there may be less of them in total. So even if there are a max number of 500 out there, that's a pretty low number if you think about it. I know there are resins and other types of dolls that see way lower numbers than this but for something as popular as the Icons, it's amazing to me. Count yourself very lucky if you have any of these beauties in your doll families! Billy 9 I gave up counting the girls I own, they keep multiplying and won't stop.
