PrettyCranium Posted December 29, 2012 Has Volks USA sent out their notices yet? Mine doesn't say cancelled, but doesn't say anything else . . . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
akachan03 Posted December 29, 2012 Has Volks USA sent out their notices yet? Mine doesn't say cancelled, but doesn't say anything else . . . My guess is next week for VolksUSA. They still need to hear from dealers about their winning names to ensure there won't be duplicate winning entries. Deadline for payment/confirmation for the dolls won from Kerbey Lane is Monday.

mistyaera Posted December 29, 2012 Volks said end of December... and they're off Monday, so... I'd assume they'll announce today or tomorrow unless they do happen to wait for dealers and push back until January?

Sporkaroni Posted December 29, 2012 Volks said end of December... and they're off Monday, so... I'd assume they'll announce today or tomorrow unless they do happen to wait for dealers and push back until January? I was thinking the same, and it would make sense since their physical location only opens on the weekends. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nekopon Posted December 29, 2012 You can see if you lost the lotto by going into your order status. Mine says "cancelled", so I lost. If yours does not, you still have hope. ;D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

smallpotato Posted December 29, 2012 I feel very sorry for those people who really want Aoko, but did not win. Just a question here: Don't you think Aoko looks too similar to DDH-07 per-painted version? You can get a DDH-07 (much more cheaper) as your own "Aoko": just need to get Aoko's outfit+wig and you are done In my opinion, DDH-07 looks nicer. Aoko's face looks too serious Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nekopon Posted December 29, 2012 I think they look different enough to me. I think 07 looks someone pissed off in my opinion while Aoko's face has a mysterious type of sweetness in it that I really love. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mistyaera Posted December 29, 2012 I'm so sorry to those who lost her. D: I'm very happy my girl is coming home (I can't believe I'll have to wait until March D: AHH). I hope those of you who did not win her will get her through Int'l if you enter! Also... someone posted up pictures comparing them. I didn't see a big similarity between 07 and Aoko at all. D: Plus, I think Aoko has a very playful/coy look about her.

Gunter Posted December 29, 2012 I've got 07 next to me now, and honestly I don't see similarities with Aoko. With make-up I can see why one would, but really they don't match to me. XD They just have too many differences, and now that I can compare one IRL I can really see it. (Though still using pics of Aoko) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smallpotato Posted December 29, 2012 You won Aoko price is much higher than Melty on YJA even Melty has a higher original price tag. Many people do prefer Aoko. Is it because Aoko=Saber+Rin feeling I think they look different enough to me. I think 07 looks someone pissed off in my opinion while Aoko's face has a mysterious type of sweetness in it that I really love. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gaiaswill Posted December 29, 2012 Aoko is an older, sexier Rin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iomi Posted December 29, 2012 Congrats to everyone who got this beautiful girl >.< ! you guys are so lucky you get to have more than a chance ! I entered through intl. and I really don't want to go through yja ; w ;,,, I entered 3 times, I only need to win once ! and yes, Aoko does have a similar feeling to Rin , Saber and Lily, I guess because they're all type-moon character? which is what I think is more nice ( we can relate the same to neris , sakuya and melty now ^__^ ) Saber extra, lily and rin are among my favorite sculpts, so no wonder that I fell in love with Aoko too ! she's got such a beautiful mystique face~ ! also, I don't think she looks like DDH07 at all, it's just the face up that plays that "similarities" feeling some of you have. Otherwise, the sculpt is utterly not the same. 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
SchroedingersCat Posted December 30, 2012 On the Type Moon topic, have they ever made an Arcueid DD? It seems weird to me that they would make so many different Sabers and still be missing the leading lady of their first anime adaptation. Now with +/- 15% more uncertainty!
