AntElitist Posted November 19, 2013 Oh my god, that would be amazing to see. Also, I wonder how the scalpers would abuse that system. I suppose they'll check that all the dolls are made by Volks? What if the dolls are just Volks heads with other doll company bodies...? VOLKS won't allow that. Last I remember, Dollpa is a VOLKS products only event. Ah, but I've seen pictures from Dolpas where DD heads are distinctly on P40 bodies. I wondered why no one seemed to care. Probably many people to handle.

OhnoRaptors Posted November 20, 2013 Yaya and Erica on the DD blog: http://ameblo.jp/blog-dd/entry-11707410288.html But poses we've seen from the scans. I'm starting to fall in love with Erica, even though at first I thought her face was a bit strange. Sakura is the other DD I really want, so it'll be hard to resist one if I get the other. *Oh! And Belldandy pictures for those interested. She's gorgeous. http://superdollfie.tea-nifty.com/blog/2013/11/30sd-9067.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ricochet Posted November 26, 2013 Erica's page is up too. She looks GORGEOUS *O* Love that Volks gave a fuller lip than her comrade Sakura to set her apart http://www.volks.co.jp/sakura_taisen/dd_erica.html/ Her combat outfit is packed with so much awesomess too. http://www.volks.co.jp/sakura_taisen/dress_erica.html/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
foo Posted November 27, 2013 Yaya's page is up I love Yaya ^^ Unfortunately I'm not convinced about the quality of her costume, mainly her black kimono and obi. Everything else is wonderful though. Since I opened that I haven't been able to get the ED out of my head, but I guess that's ok. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Choppi Posted November 30, 2013 I kind of have a stupid question 3 Forgive me! Will people be able to buy Erica on the December 22nd event? I'm trying to figure out when exactly people will be getting their Erica dolls, as I'm going to get her head, body, and weapon in the Y!JA aftermarket. I'm trying to get an estimate on her release date so I can be sure to have the money!

I'm trying to get an estimate on her release date so I can be sure to have the money! Thanks!!! ;v; Most likely yes, but in my oppinnion, the best bet would be to wait for the after event and associated lottery, since the immediate post event yahoo prices tend to be inflated. Also might want to consider trying the after event lottery since it might be just more economical to get the full set, even if you are left with bits you wouldnt use.

Poofiemus Posted December 6, 2013 Looks like Volks is doing some new hands to accomodate the big line of dolls: http://ameblo.jp/blog-dd/entry-11719325752.html Hand-holding hands! Cute, but I personally don't like how the hands are molded together. Two problems: 1) getting them posed without knocking both girls over is going to be a royal pain. And b) it means that both girls need to be the same skintone, unless you airbrush/tint one of the hands in the pair. What if I want a normal skin girl holding hands with a white skin girl on one side and a semi-white girl on the other, huh? In this household, sanity is considered a tresspasser.

mangaemi Posted December 6, 2013 They're cute.... And I agree the posing would be problematic. I can foresee alot of doll stumbling off tables and falling. Might also promote breakage with the peg that connects the hands in the arm socket after alot of falls.

It does seem like it would be hard to set up, but maybe not as hard as getting hand-holding looking right with the current hand lineup. I know Volks has done hands like this before for Super Dollfie, so I imagine not dealing with hooks and elastic makes the DD hand swap a lot simpler! jadepixel doll lab jadepixel eye shop Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shailara Posted December 6, 2013 And Volks are not the only ones with such hands,.I'm sure it's not all that difficult to pose your girls with them! The skintone is kind of a big deal tho xD; (\_/) ( ' .' ) ( uu) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yukamina Posted December 6, 2013 Oh, I like the idea of handholding option hands! It's really adorable. It think it'd be worth the awkwardness of setting them up to get some really sweet pictures It might help to get them into the pose you want and then put the hands on. My biggest problem would be matching skin tones. I only have one NS girl, for example. My Etsy Shop ~~~ My DeviantArt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Soenatte Posted December 6, 2013 Yep~ seen hands like this before and I think they are adorable as all hell ;;u;; but as mentioned twice before me, yes skintone... u.u maybe Volks will figure a way around it? I'd still love to have that option though, It would be so cute to have girls hold hands for little photoshoots and stuff!

baldylox Posted December 7, 2013 While those new hands are cute, I still don't understand why Volks hasn't ever made a thumbs up hand! I can't tell you how many times I see this gesture in anime and manga so why hasn't Volks made some of these yet? I'd be buying a bunch of them for sure if they did! Can you imagine Saber Extra with a thumbs up hand? How awesome would it be for stories where she gives someone the thumbs DOWN motion? I can think of so many uses for these right now with my girls... especially Saber, Rei and Sprout. Come on Volks, wake the hell up and make me some friggin thumbs up hands!!
