DJStarstryker Posted November 3, 2012 Posing is nice sure, but there are plenty of Images where dollfie dreams are posed completely unrealistically and it just looks daft, totally ruins the image. Just because a doll CAN bend that way, doesn't mean that it should or that it looks good. I think there are great reasons for being poseable, but there are also great perks to having something seamless, natural and elegant looking too. I don't know about anyone else, but I think for me, it helps that I don't have one of these bodies yet to see how much these dolls are limited in posing ability. Maybe it's not so bad. I just know I get no advantage of them, since every single outfit I own at the moment has that area completely covered. For Melty, she does have her outfit top like you mention, but the torso joint would probably be barely visible if at all. At least from the Volks News 51 pictures, the ribbons holding the middle of that top together seems to cover most of it. Are you ready to rock? ^_^ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Saluli Posted November 3, 2012 I loved Melty's ears, makes me want her for a custom project. Aoko is giving me a hard time. Sometimes I look to her and she says " I am perfect for you!". In others she says "save and get yours unicorns...." And there is KOS-MOS.... so many decisions! Summon ritual is over. And finally complete. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DJStarstryker Posted November 4, 2012 I loved Melty's ears, makes me want her for a custom project. So do I, the problem is, I don't have any project in mind at the moment. I just like her ears. And I don't know if I really want another DD right now. Are you ready to rock? ^_^ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yama Posted November 4, 2012 Ah. All the girls look so good. o_o I still can't believe they made such a pretty Creamy Mami, though. Despite her costing an arm and a leg, or two, I don't think I'll be able to pass up trying for her. And here I thought I was safe from any more purchases now that I got Miki... >.<; Hi!

You do know that DD are devious little creatures that are resistant to being by themselves? They are like potato chips, you can't eat (or have) just one!

MarietteMacaron Posted November 4, 2012 Very clear scans here of Volks 51! You can even zoom in to Original size~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Innocentsake Posted November 4, 2012 Thanks for the new scans for me to drool over Motoko And good news for those who want a carrying case that isn't tweed! 3 new colors/designs and it's good to see that the black one is lined in white on the inside, good job Volks! If you look at the larger size of this picture the design of the 2nd & 3rd bag has a diamond pattern, do like img034 by natsume_rin, on Flickr Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DJStarstryker Posted November 4, 2012 Considering Volks Japan seems to be out of the tweed cases, looking forward to these new ones. All I have is one of the violin cases, and considering there's multiple dolls in the house... Doesn't work well if you want to take more than 1 somewhere. Having choices is good!

Ravendruid Posted November 4, 2012 I rather like the black one. It looks comfortable, both for me and the girl. It would be a lot more comfy for Yuriko than having o ride in my messenger bag with her legs folded up and her head bowed down. I'm sure she must get some pretty bad cramps after a while.

Over here I think I may have only seen one person who uses a violin case and everyone else has the tweed bags haha. It'll be good to have different designs that way there isn't just a pile of tweed bags at meet ups~! Which of the new ones do you fancy? I rather like the black one.

I'm sure she must get some pretty bad cramps after a while. I'm sure Yuriko would love to have a proper carrying bag all to herself, those cramps can't be comfortable after being made to fit in a messenger bag XD I believe this is on her Christmas list hehe~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I like dark colors in general, so I'd probably go for one of the black ones. But all of them work for me. They're not hot pink or school bus yellow, which I absolutely would not buy.

MissLadyBossy Posted November 4, 2012 Wow, Aoko and Melty are both so pretty, I have not felt this excited in a while about a DD release. I would love to have both girls be mages for my Saber twins and Maxima. I am not familiar with the characters, but I do love that they both come from a magical background. Melty's pointy ears are so adorable and Aoko looks beautiful with her blue eyes. Decisions, decisions!

WoundedNight64 Posted November 5, 2012 Melty or Aoko! Why must volks do this to me?! D: I still can't decide on one of them to adopt. I love everything about them both, and Melty's ears! Ohmigosh! Elf eared girl at last, eh? Whom do we think is going to have the higher markup on the secondhand scene? I'm personally betting Melty, because of all her stuff. But Type-Moon girls don't go cheap either. I guess it will all be a matter of demand.
