This is the first time for me that Volks USA has shipped something out so fast. I’m guessing she’s gonna sit at a sorting facility for a long time since she’s estimated not to arrive for a while. I hope everyone gets their dolls safe and fast. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Manaphyyy Posted December 27, 2020 I've been busy and lazy this week, but Arle arrived on Christmas eve! What a great present from Santa Volks. (For anyone wondering, I dug around and the delivery for Arle was late December) I think she had the vinyl sweats when she arrived, or her face could have been shiny based on temperature changes from outdoors to indoors? Either way, it was easy to wipe off. She's already hitting it off with Chika and Ai-chan! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Either way, it was easy to wipe off. yeah, i'm pretty sure that was moisture condensation forming on her skin from the rapid changeover from hours in bone cold environs such as the delivery truck, to the (presumably) well-heated atmosphere of your house...

sinclair Posted January 1, 2021 Arle and Ranko were both shipping late December. The other DD's were January. With how messed up USPS was I paid the extra to have Ranko shipped guaranteed, but they still were late so I need to shot Volks an email to see about getting the shipping fees refunded from USPS. And since I was going to be out of town for Christmas I put a mail hold so that they wouldn't try to leave her on the doorstep all weekend. But USPS is so messed up that they didn't hold my mail, and delivered her anyway. Luckily for me it was right before I left, basically the mailman showed up as I was loading up the car. In the car she went and opened the next morning for Christmas! So here is Reina! 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cydril Posted January 27, 2021 @sinclair she's so pretty! Had anyone with a 'late January' shipping estimate got their dolls yet? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mine got streaks from her’s as opposed to great black spots. What might look better than a full body suit is a pair of white tights. Coolcats sells those, and I think all you really have to worry about is the socks. I got those socks to replace her’s and mistakenly put her defaults on her thinking they were the replacements... I was kinda hoping that they had changed the fabric this time around, but those socks really do stain. I'm glad I had a body suit on her. This weekend Reina went to play in the snow with us, so when we got home I took her outfit off so she wasn't in wet clothes. The socks stained the body suit, but the body suit did it's job as her legs were still pure. Now she's in an all white outfit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
