Galvatim Posted July 1, 2012 I wish they'd at least have a bundle option for the parts. I'm glad Volks is selling option parts with the internal frame pieces, especially with the breakage issues of the DDIII, but it's going to be very annoying when certain parts are sold out. Lots of nice outfits so far, I really like the bikini with the denim shorts. Sakura's outfit is really cool too, and I'm liking Miki as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Iachion Posted July 1, 2012 Well I knew that Volks would eventually start releasing Idolm@ster girls, I just wish it wasn't so soon! Miki is my favorite from the games and I really like the DD version of her so she is must buy for me, hopefully I can work some extra shifts and can afford her by August. I'm really impressed with this batch of girls, I can't wait to see more of them! And those summer clothes are really cute as well! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

asianed Posted July 1, 2012 Ed, I think your custom Haruka is MILES better than the Volks version. Agreed. The only point for him to get a Haruka is if he likes the outfit she comes with and maybe that special body. Could always try to do a split if someone wants the head. I'd entertain a split just to get the wig and maybe the outfit. If I manage the outfit, I'd need to do some body switching, since Haruka is currently sitting on a DDII body.

I was starting to wonder when Volks was going to do IdolM@ster... it's a gold mine considering how many characters there are, not to mention all the outfits. I'm glad they've run out of Sabers to make and are moving on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Coffee Posted July 1, 2012 I'm safe. C: I don't really want any of these dolls THAT much. Although, I do want the seamless torso. Anyone planning to buy one of the imas-girls who does not want their torso?

Anna-neko Posted July 1, 2012 *looks at pictures that appeared since last time she was here* ... yeah... Sakura's battle suit is great, but her face isn't perfectly Sakura's Maybe if it were a bit thinner ... Altho now I'm wondering if they'll make her pink "date" one-piece dress too. Its kinda was a big deal, and would be super awesome to have!! Yawp, def time to sell that kidney, and maybe a lung. Too many super-adorable outfits all around Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DJStarstryker Posted July 1, 2012 I'm glad they've run out of Sabers to make and are moving on. They're still working on that. None of the shipment 2 US people have gotten theirs yet. I'm safe. C:I don't really want any of these dolls THAT much. Although, I do want the seamless torso. Anyone planning to buy one of the imas-girls who does not want their torso? Ha, good luck with that! Anyone actually buying one of them probably wants to keep that special seamless torso. I know I would, assuming I liked the posability.

klein Posted July 1, 2012 Depending on how I do with funds raising, I may be interested in splitting the brunette for the head only she is like third in line of priority though (I want Sakura and the blond as complete dolls).

Dolly Posted July 2, 2012 Nice offerings, once again! I really like Miki. Not enough that she is on my "must have" list, but I suppose that is a good thing considering how tempting the outfits are (those Idolmaster uniforms!), not to mention the resin. And what a great time to release cute swimwear, a bikini really highlights how nice the new torso looks! At home: Smartdoll Onward & DD Jeanne Wishing for: too many to list!

DivinitaAria Posted July 2, 2012 I am safe None really appeal to me that much, except Natsuki v.2 but I think I can hold off on her . The opened mouth just doesn't look natural to me. The blonde chick has this cool look about her though and the Sakura Wars girl is pretty but she looks too similar to past DDs. I really like that Balloon dress set though 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
Ultimaknight Posted July 2, 2012 Volks Japanese DD Blog been updated with some info http://ameblo.jp/blog-dd/theme-10013447991.html Think I am safe for now. Only really interested in Sakura's outfits XD Her mold is nice but doesn't seem much like her. Lot of outfits I do like in this run and nice to see more option parts become available too.

RaveOfNightmares Posted July 2, 2012 Doh! Looks like there's a new entry on my unicorn listing.... *stares at Miki* Although I'm probably one of the very few who would have preferred they make Akizuki Ritsuko as a DD. For the outfits, I'm only looking forward to the yellow topped swimsuit with shorts. Hopefully I can afford to do this when the time comes. 21 DD girls: Mio, Marina, Yui, Yoko, Nia, Lily, Arisu, Akina, Momo, Arisa, Yukina, Ayaka, Niimi, Eri, Millefeuille, Ekisu, Chitose, Miyabi, KOS-MOS v.4, Hatsune Miku and God Eater Alisa. 2B in a hopeful future.

I can sympathize with that. I would have rather had it so they didn't make my favorite character = Especially when I'm in the process of making a custom version of Haruka. ^^; Oh well.

laces Posted July 3, 2012 Miki is super cute~ Are they all DD sister bodies? I am sorely tempted but should probably save my money for my custom girl who will be bought whenever Volks decide to restock... >_<; Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DefectiveAngel Posted July 4, 2012 Oh wow it's amazing how much awesome DD news you can miss out on when your electric is out all weekend and have such crazy shifts at work like me. T_T Anyway this is amazing news they have already revealed who the newest girls will be. I must say I agree with most that Sakura is a bit of a disappointment face up wise. :-/ For some reason I expected a bit more...oh well just saves me some money. I love her default outfit and battle outfit. But they are just not my girls style so I am safe there. But.......those IdolM@ster girls default outfits.....let's just say my bank account is doomed. XD I am totally head over heals crazy in love with their default outfits. They are so amazing and beautiful! Perfect for me since I already have 3 idols in my family. They are screaming out to me must get for Yuki and Rina, plus those 2nd alternate outfits and the school uniforms. I also love the new clothes they are releasing at this Dolpa. All the swimsuit sets are screaming buy me too, along with a few other sets and some of the shoes. As for the IdolM@ster girls themselves, I'm not sure if I will be actually adopting either of them. I'm thinking strictly getting their outfits only. Just for the fact I told myself that if I get anymore girls for my family I have to be absolutely crazy about them. I'm not really that way with either of them. Although Miki is being quite the evil temptress to me. I really love her the most, her face is super gorgeous and she has wonderful style. Also the new seamless body type is intriguing me some. I will just have to wait and see how things go if I actually break down and try for her. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
animagic4u Posted July 5, 2012 I'm so surprised the im@s DD stand a chance of American release since neither the (official plot related) anime or games are in America! !

Same is true for other things. Shining Hearts (Neris, Airy) never came out in the US. Neither did Shining Wind (Sakuya). Same is true for White Album (Rina, Yuki) and lots of other things. I think the Touhou girls have been the only exception, and that wasn't because the games haven't come out here. That was because the license required it to be a Japan only release.
