Looking for Alna

As the title says.

Recently saw some photos of her and damn she's gorgeous. Trying to get one, I looked over internet but couldn't find anything.

So, people, I'm looking for help of yours. Do you know where can I get her? because I heard this doll was released in 2010, so I'm asumming it will be hard to find. Please tell me I'm wrong XD.

Alna is very gorgeous. 😄

 

Mandarake currently has both two versions for sale:

As does Jungle:

Neither requires a proxy, but I remember Jungle charging me a 5% handling charge when I last bought from them.

there's three alnas!

There's also the original release, Mandarake listing (currently sold out):

Alna original release (normal/flesh skin)

Alna White Christmas version has white skin, and Alna Magic White version has semi-white skin.

I would suggest not buying the white skin version since those body parts are discontinued and won't be available starting this month.

Yes, Jungle charges 5%. It used to be a Paypal fee since all payments were through that but they still charge it now for all orders. Jungle also doesn't specify any dolls as unused, which I don't like. I've bought clothes and shoes from them though.

Edit: To find Alna on Mandarake you have to search for "Aruna"

You both saved my life! Now I just need to wait 2 - 3 days until mandarake sends the shipping and handling fees.

Technically it's not wrong, her name in Japanese katakana is ”アルナ” which is a-ru-na.

The most reliable way to search on Mandarake even on the English pages is with Japanese terms, as some items don't have English titles at all, or sometimes they are translated pretty darn weirdly.

I still laugh when I think about Rin Tohsaka being "Karin Toosa":

And yes, searching for Karin Toosa is a pretty reliable way to find her there. I understand how they came up with that name, but it's still funny.

You're right. Sometimes I forgot they're right even if the pronunciation is funny. That reminds me an anime I just watched, called "jojo bizarre's adventure". I'm not going to spoil but a lot of chars say the words "ZA WARUDO" instead of "the world" and i can't stop laughing. 

About karin toosa, I'm not gonna lie, didn't get it at first, lol.
