Discussion of 2007 Unoa Pre-order (Shipped Dec. 2007)

Hi!

Yes, the kits will come with those fur wigs. "Sist" comes with her default wig White, and "Lusis" comes with her default wig "Antique Gold".

Those wigs are Great!

I do suggest you start saving now (I'm doing the same), because I don't know when the next pre-order will be, the last one for Girls was I think like 2 years ago.

Try not to miss it, as I'm trying to do this as well!

 

the last (and only one) unoa male preorder hasn't been made by araki but by ... can't remember the name, the ones who made also unoa 2nd special preorder. dollybird maybe?

I think it was more or less a year ago?

so it isn't sure if there will be another preorder, if araki sold the molds to dollybird then maybe is dollybird who have to make another preorder, and not araki.

the optional parts preorder which has just been done wasn't for the girls who will come this summer, but for the 2005 girls.
Usually the parts preorder comes after the girls preorder. (i think it's been made only another time thought)

 

The last boy preorder was through the publication UNOA FREAK at Hobby Japan.

 

LOL! Yes, it is. And Araki sold one of each, L-bi and B-el, painted and with outfits on Yahoo!japan. They went high, I can't recall how high though. They looked like they were dressed as waiters, both in black and white outfits which slightly varied. Their faces were amazing.

There must be pictures of them someplace on Araki's website. If I find it I will post it here.

 

the boys araki released as waitresses were so cute *3* they also had optional high feet

 

What exactly is the eye mechanism? Do you have to purchase that separately? I've never had a U-Noa before but I love them and plan on getting one this time around.

 

The eye mechanism comes with the doll - it enables the eyes to move side to side with out actually have to remove the eyes to do so. However, the problem with the mechanism, which I believe is why most don't use it, is because the eyes need to have holes in them for the mechanism to hold them. I think...that's just what I've heard, I don't have a Unoa.

I would like to know this too! I've heard so much about the lottery...which makes me nervous!

 

I've heard it will be a pre-order where everyone who orders will get their dolls. They make the dolls to fill all orders like in past pre-orders. (Hence the 6 month wait after ordering.)

However, I've also heard that they are making the dolls in advance. In which case a lottery may happen if the orders for the dolls exceeds their stock. This way there is no wait, but some people may just be out of luck.

I hope it's a pre-order so that everyone will get their dolls! I don't think we'll know exactly what's going on until Crescent Shop makes an announcement about it.

Here's a Unoa fact page that show the mechanism.

 

Dezarii - Nice pictures! Thanks so much for sharing them..

One question, for the horns/ears/glasses, is the resin actually black or is it painted?

 

It's acctually black resin from what i understand. :3​

 

A question directed at Dezarii or whomever else that has already recieved their parts; do the dozing heads have carved out eye-wells or not? I've been thinking some rather dangerous and costly customization thoughts. <__<;

 

i have a question - when you preorder the lusis or sist with the large milk part, does it come with the small bust as well, or are you forgoing that to get just the large?

i like the idea of deciding who they'll become after i give them faceups, and worry that if i order both large, that one of them might be better suited to small...

 

Yes they come with the small bust by default (part of the doll) and you pay to ADD a large bust to your order

 

As kchan said, the order period is June 16th to 30th. They will confirm orders on the evening of July 7th. It will be "Main" and "Order" groups. (As per my translation.)
Then those who are in the "Main" order group, the payment period is July 9th. (They only get one day? ) The time of delivery will be decided by lottery. However they are absolutely accepting orders. All people who wish to order Unoa will be allowed to do so.

A normal Lusis or Sist kit is 39,900yen, a Lusis or Sist kit with large bust part extra is 43,575yen. Irrespective of whether you get the large bust part or not, you can get one of each kit. (So you could get a Lusis with or without bust, and a Sist with or without bust. But not two Sists or two Lusises.)

The next pre-order will be the boys -- however it will be done when the production of the surplus stock to fill all the girls' 6th pre-order orders are finished, so at the moment absolutely nothing is decided. The only thing for certain is that they will be kits, not completed dolls. They absolutely will not answer any questions about this pre-order, so they request that you do not email them regarding it. When everything is decided, they will announce it on the site, so they ask for you to wait until that time.

Sorry for the quietude in the last month or so about doing translations like this, I've been quite sick so not on the forum much. I hope to continue to help out again now that I'm feeling better.

 

How exciting the pre-order is starting! More beautiful Unoas on Doa!

My brother who lives in Japan got a few optional pieces in the last lottery, and I received them last week.

Here is my new Lusis face on the right,-- I just finished her faceup. The Lusis on the left is sporting those cute little Unoa glasses.
