dreamcore Posted April 13, 2012 Previously, they did not sell anything more than the vinyl skin separately, and you could only get the internal pieces by buying a full body. With the current problems, don't you think that would be even more frustrating? If a shoulder joint cracked, you'd need to buy the entire body again! For now, I think this is the best course of action all around. And besides, the pieces keep getting updated, so this also gives them an easier way to distribute the new parts. New products always have kinks that don't show themselves until they are mass produced, after all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kumi Posted April 13, 2012 After this photo her eyes qualify to change at once. Maybe just other animetics, but with darker pupils. But man, she's pretty... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bethykins Posted April 13, 2012 I no longer want rise after seeing the new pictures :/ her nose just isn't right to me :/ I have a gorgeous family of DD girls See my profile for a list of my beauties!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
baldylox Posted April 13, 2012 I no longer want rise after seeing the new pictures :/ her nose just isn't right to me :/ THIS exactly. These new pics make her nose look 2 feet wide. Maybe she got in a fight and had her nose broken? And those nostrils look like they are flaring in anger. I'm not knocking anyone who likes her tho. These girls are all about aesthetics so to each his/her own. Rise just isn't for me at all and these new pics confirm it bigtime. Billy I gave up counting the girls I own, they keep multiplying and won't stop. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dreamcore Posted April 13, 2012 Can we get some photoshops on those pictures as well, by any chance? I don't have good enough photoshop skills to do it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rubyconcream Posted April 13, 2012 I love how glossy her lips look! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DivinitaAria Posted April 13, 2012 Argh, so torn! I have money for Rise, but I found my *almost* dream doll second hand and am totally paranoid that she'll get sold if I don't jump on the offer now. I don't go back to work until the beginning of May either. And the fact that it isn't guaranteed that I'd win Rise sucks! Decisions Rise - Rise // Rise #2 - Rise // Ritsuko - 2B // Momo - M.O.M.O. // Nayuki -Mikuru // Romi - 09 // Makoto - Sailor Jupiter // Mikasa - DD07 (WIP) Waiting on: DDH-25 for custom Akechi 🥰 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
klein Posted April 13, 2012 I really love Rise Unfortunately, I think I am sitting this dolpa out as I have exceeded my hobby budget so I am on a dolly diet until further notice. My Flickr - Pullip_junk; For list of my DD see my profile Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nkei Posted April 13, 2012 OH man Rise . So pretty and different . It's kind of cool that she's the love-hate mold while Sakuya/Maxima is the general crowd pleaser. Smart Volks is Smart . Something for everyone! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dolly Posted April 13, 2012 Wow, Rise is really cute! She looks so SD-like, I bet she would be absolutely stunning in a nice pair of urethane eyes. (for those of you who aren't familiar with urethanes, they have wonderful depth and capture the light very well, and tend to "follow" you. But like glass eyes, they are rather hit-or-miss in the average DD) Maxima is my favorite, though I'm not familiar with her character . . . currently attempting to talk myself out of trying to do a split for her head.

MissLadyBossy Posted April 14, 2012 I will enter for Maxima! This will be the fiirst time going for the lottery. I don't even have my Sabers yet, I was hoping to get them first and trying not to buy until they arrive, but I like her dark hair and dark eyes very much.

Amber Posted April 14, 2012 I think Rise is very beautiful, but she does not make me think of DD when I look at her. She is very unique and pretty though, so I hope everyone who wants her gets her. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iomi Posted April 14, 2012 I did mention the possibility of modding rise's nose ( and I think we might see that on YJA's custom heads XD ) forgive my photoshopping skills XD ~ At home: Rina and Reina( Twins ),DD Neris,Oscar(DD Beatrice),Bunni DD Akira)Melon( DD Yuki.M)Saber Extra(x2), Toki(DD Rise), Saber Alter, Saber Lily and Kudo, Rosalie, Cirno and Kan'u,Melty, Aoko, mika(06), Rin Tohsaka Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crashrobot Posted April 14, 2012 I did mention the possibility of modding rise's nose ( and I think we might see that on YJA's custom heads XD ) forgive my photoshopping skills XD ~ I think it's because her nostrils are more detailed then the other DD's because if her nostrils weren't like that. She would be pretty awesome. She is still cute though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

misskale Posted April 17, 2012 Just wondering. Am I reading the Cirno page wrong or is it saying that she's only going to be available at Dolpa and not through lottery? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crashrobot Posted April 17, 2012 I wish they had more pictures of sakuya. I might just get her eyes because she reminds me of yuki. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dreamcore Posted April 17, 2012 Just wondering. Am I reading the Cirno page wrong or is it saying that she's only going to be available at Dolpa and not through lottery? I don't see anything that says that. It appears as though they just haven't announced anything about the After Event yet, so nothing about it is written on Cirno's page. For what it's worth, nothing is written about it on Sakuya's page, either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
