Volks DearSD 43cm Discussion Part 2

Dear SD dolls are usually released as lottery sales during events. Currently, I believe Leo has only been available in Japan so far.

 

I get it! I want a Leo so bad too! I have seen a couple on yahoo Japan, but super expensive so far :/

 

Oh wow. I haven't looked yet on yahoo Japan. I hope we both can find one at a reasonable price.

 

Gosh, I've made the mistake of learning about DSD Leo. Another DSD to pine over...

 

Haha more Leo pinning

Since it was last discussed, has anyone cracked the shoe question? I wondered if anyone had found shoes that feet DearSD other than the Volks full set ones (which I have never one seen appear anywhere for sale. At all. Clearly people treasure them!) ?

 

With the shoes, I did get my Megu a pair of shoes from Luts, I believe they were in the Delf Girl size, and I've found they fit well. There might be some room for socks, but to my eye they weren't horribly oversized (like so many of my slim minis' shoes are) and some of the styles fit the sort of younger kid character I'm aiming for with her. I think I got either the Dorothy or the Janes Cross style.

Unfortunately if you want sneakers or anything that might be limited; I haven't looked at the Delf Boy offerings to see if there's anything that might work there.

 

@lorka I don’t have my dream girl Lana yet, but I looked over my shoes and realised sizes differ a lot. But one thing I noticed was just like @JaxxCapta says, the Luts Delf girl shoes probably looks like the right size (maybe with socks?). But there are very few pairs for sale on their website.
I have ”pretty candies” and they don’t really fit SD10 feet. Yet Volks shoes in SD10/13 size are generally oversized on SD10 feet.

 

@JaxxCapta that’s an excellent pointer actually! They do a have a small selection, I’ll look into it! I just want my dolls to have something to stand in to take pics outside! And some classic Mary-Jane’s or something would do the trick!

@Sweetiemi Good to know! And I hope you get Lana soon, she looks amazing! I just ordered a white skin Coco! I am so excited to get that ray of sunshine

 

On page 33 of this thread i posted a photo of my girl in a disney animators dress, she is wearing luts mary janes in that picture if that helps. They are a little bit roomy but not to much (like 5 mm or so)

 

@lorka

Here’s Leeke, Delf, Volks, ”MSD” BABYSSB, and Carol’s shoes compared. I think I might sell the bigger ones (they are a bit big on SD10 as well, but looks good). DearSD is perfect for me but I don’t like when they have shoes too big. The two smaller pairs pictured barely fit SD10, so I think they’d be good for DSD . My experience is that shoes do stretch a little bit if you leave them on.

 

So cute! That’s super helpful. And I agree we get chubby babies, we don’t want them to look like they have giant feet

 

I realised I didn’t introduce my (still shoe-less ) baby : Thorn! He is a DearSd Coco! I just got a massive crush and now here he is! The most photogenic doll I’ve had I think, he just looks lovely no matter what

He's gorgeous like a cherub! Coco is a really sweet-faced sculpt too

 

Thank you! Yes I think that face is perfect for DearSd babies!

 

He looks so sweet, like a cotton candy cloud! I really love the way these colors complement each other It's such a nice photo

 

Hi guys! This question might have been answered in Part 1 of the discussion but that part is no longer accessible so I'm asking here. Are DearSD heads compatible with SD bodies? I'm thinking so as I've seen people hybrid them but is there a difference between DSD heads and regular SD heads at all? Thanks!

 

@AnnoDomini, they’re the same heads! DearSD heads can go on SD bodies. So far the only heads sculpted exclusively for DearSD were the Frozen girls, and even those could probably look okay as SD.

 

Ahh thank you! That's the answer I needed. Makes sense since they probably have the same neck circumference and all.

 

Thats good to know! Thanks you guys!
