Super Dollfie (スーパードルフィー, Sūpā Dorufī?), often abbreviated SD, is a brand of ball-jointed doll made by the Japanese company Volks.

The term "Dollfie" is a portmanteau formed from the words "doll" and "figure". The original Dollfie dolls are Barbie-sized vinyl figures; the term "Super Dollfie" was introduced to distinguish the larger resin dolls. Super Dollfie, or even just Dollfie, are sometimes erroneously used as a generic terms to refer to BJDs made by other companies. However, both Super Dollfie and Dollfie are registered trademarks and should only be used for Volks products.

Super Dollfie is Volks' first range of 1/3 dolls, released in 1999 [1]. They are meant to represent children of around 10 years of age and so are sometimes referred to as SD10. Volks refers to them as "standard" to differentiate from SD13. SD are the same size as the Tenshi type KyoTenshi.[2]
