gaiaswill Posted December 7, 2013 Come on Volks, wake the hell up and make me some friggin thumbs up hands!! Billy ALL OF MY UPVOTE Or rather: ALL OF MY THUMBS UP Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jezrah Posted December 7, 2013 Agreed, thumbs up hands would be awesome. I'm surprised they've never thought of it. The new hand holding hands are certainly cute, and I can hink of a rew uses. Although one of my immediate ideas would require two different skin tones.... But can anyone tell me (since I'm too lazy to turn on my laptop to run the post through a translator) whether they'll be permanent option hands? I know I saw them make something similar for the SDs, but I thought they were in a limited run or something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Poofiemus Posted December 7, 2013 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!! Billy "I killed a man. . . with THIS. THUMB." (For those who aren't Pixar fans, ) I honestly hadn't thought much about it until you mentioned some of those alternate uses, but now? I NEED these hands. Just for that reference! Well, and maybe Agatha getting her thumb stuck in test tubes. Or maybe sticking her fingers in her ears to drown out Miku singing Ievan Polka. Or. . .alright, fine, I just need them. In this household, sanity is considered a tresspasser. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SisterKyoya Posted December 7, 2013 Can you imagine Saber Extra with a thumbs up hand? That would be pretty funny. The first thing I thought of though was Tama being all excited and saying, "Mommy! Mommy! Look, I got an olive!" with the olive sitting on his thumb. The thumbs up hands would really be useful. I'm sure that Rainie would use them to start a thumb wrestling match (even with herself), and Tama could make thumbprint cookies! I'd have to keep them away from Bree because she might end up poking herself in the eye. I was excited when Raven first mentioned the 'holding hands' hands because I thought they would be interlocking, and the possibility in the DD holding wider things like a large book spine. As it is I find them vaguely interesting but I'd be more inclined to just use the hands I have like I did here. Granted it would have worked better if Dakota had a full set of hands too, but you don't have to worry about the skintone mismatch with some combos of girls. ~Sister Kyoya Forum Blog: Badger Pocket Tales (Family story from the beginning) | { Old Family story reboot: Start Here! } Follow me on Twitter, Flickr & Instagram Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gunter Posted December 8, 2013 Huh, Yaya isn't gonna be released in the USA? http://www.volksusa.com/dolls-party-30.html I dunno if I missed that (cause I've only been paying half attention. I can't afford after all...) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Katiazza Posted December 9, 2013 I'm a little sad that Yaya won't be available on Volks USA. I'm going to enter for her on the international site but I was hoping for two chances to get her *Yuzu* DDS Yaya *Yuuko* DDIII Aozaki Aoko *Sakura* DDII Uryuu Sakuno Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Arky Posted December 11, 2013 For all the post here i read, SDGrG "Oh! My Goddess!" Belldandy is only movable on the arm ? >.< since is half resin...?? and is the head detachable ? from the pictures it doesnt seem like the legs can be moved.... if this is true Bell is only part alive, NOOOOOOOO. why cant they release DD on her already or super dollfie movable limbs.

If i am wrong, correct and reply ty. SDGr is the most posable body Volks makes, technically. It's just her ankles with the high heel legs on that aren't movable. I assume she will come with regular legs, just like all the other SDGr releases did. the SDGr is just a smaller SD16, now that I think about it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I assume she will come with regular legs, just like all the other SDGr releases did. the SDGr is just a smaller SD16, now that I think about it. It will definitely come with the extra legs. Volks always makes sure you have the option. Yeah, she is essentially a SD16, but without the odd waist placement/lack of look of starvation. So no need to worry about her being on the SDGr body. She's completely poseable. It wouldn't be a BJD if it didn't move after all. ^^ She will however be far heavier because she's made of resin. That's also why the price is so much more. Resin costs a lot more to produce, and they use a lot more of it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arky Posted December 11, 2013 Now i get it. Thanks for the info. I think bell should be a bit taller, hope she has some shape incase they have a outfit of her in the race car uniform or the tight magic suit >.<. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If i am wrong, correct and reply ty. I have an SDGrG (Belle from earlier this year) and her body is extremely poseable! It might be a bit of an adjustment if you've never owned a doll with elastic joints, but the engineering that went into the body is impressive. Her hips and legs will lock loosely in place to help her stand/sit better, and so on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Katiazza Posted December 22, 2013 Does anyone have any idea when the international lottery will be held? I'm not too familiar with when they are held in relation to the Dollpa event. With the Volks USA lottery already open I would have thought the international would be up as well... *Yuzu* DDS Yaya *Yuuko* DDIII Aozaki Aoko *Sakura* DDII Uryuu Sakuno Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
archeotech Posted December 22, 2013 No the international lottery always happens about 2 or 3 weeks after the Dolpa so probably around the 11th of Jan but that's just my guess. Actual date might be up somewhere? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
