OtakuDepot Posted March 12, 2011 Hi everyone, My name is James but I go by Otaku Depot online. I'm a pretty new Dollfie Dream owner, I first learned of them through Danny Choo's website and like many people I thought: "Who the heck would ever pay that much for a doll? They must be nuts!". Well, after seeing posts of his Saber I soon learned to see the special appeal they have. I remember staying up late one night, looking over his site for about 2 hours. I checked every single post I could find that showed his girls, that was the night I went from thinking there was no way I would get a Dollfie Dream to: OK, I have to have one. But just one! (Just one!!! haha ) That was a short time before Dolpa 23 and I had just received a year end bonus from work - perfect timing. I got lucky and was able to win the lottery to buy Sakura Matou. She showed up on August 20th and I had my first daughter. Recently I purchased Image Character Yukino who frequently cosplays as Alicia Florence from Aria the Animation. I was lucky enough to acquire the Aria company uniform and that's the reason I adopted Yukino as I thought she best fit the role of Alicia. In December I was also lucky enough to win the lottery entry for Saber Lily!!! I'm very excited as I found out yesterday she is due to show up to her new home here on Tuesday March 15, 2011. I'm also very interested in photography and hope to be able to post a number of photo stories of my girls as well. If any of you ever have any photography questions feel free to ask, I'm always happy to help if I can. Thanks, OtakuDepot.
