Volks Super Dollfie Midi Discussion part 1

Has there ever been a compilation of all the SDM models that were available on VOLKS USA full choice system?
Kind of wondering what was made available previously.

 

So, I don’t own one of these, but I’m wondering how they compare in size to a doll that I do own and—more to the point—whether I could dress her in Midi clothes. What are their chest, waist, and hip measurements? I know that the DDM has smaller measurements than my doll, but this doll seems a little bit bigger and more child-like? DDM is like a preteen whereas these darlings look more like grade schoolers. However, the Volks website is maddeningly devoid of any actual measurements, aside from their 40cm height (my own doll is 41cm tall).

 

Is there anywhere that shows all the SDM headmold sizes in terms of head circumferences? I would like to know to see how they would look relative to my other dolls.

 

Has anyone heard news about when Noa might get a restock for the US site? I've been eyeing her for a while and I think I'd really like to get her when she comes back!

 

@lunar-dream304 Someone above mentioned that Volks usually does big restocks in early summer, June or July, which would most likely be when she will restock. All the event items (including Liselotte and Luna) are also due to arrive in June, so hopefully that would be it!

 

Hey everyone! so in anticipation of dollpa I went on Buyee and got myself my very first volks, f-20 head and sdc body. Does anyone have this kind of hybrid? I'm so scared it won't work out...esp in terms of skin color. If anyone could post pics I would really really appreciate it!

 

Hi there!
Did you had any reply to your question? Cause I am also curious ab the head size of the SD versus MSD Volks dolls. Thanks!

 

MSD is 8 inches and SD10 and SD13 girls are 9 inches. This is not written in stone is varies a little but that there is a good inch difference in head size. They do make good younger sisters size wise.

 

Thank you so much! Do you think that a head from a SD would fit also a MSD body?

 

If you wanted to put an SD head onto a MSD body, you would have to modify the neck hole much smaller to fit. Maybe check the wiki here to verify the neck circumference of each doll size. Boy SD heads usually also have larger neck holes.

 

No. To get an idea of the scale difference, you can see SDM vs SD here:

An SD head will look huge on an MSD or SDM body, if you manage to get it to fit at all.

 

Thank you! I wonder if it will look too big...but I guess that 1 inch is not that big difference.

I will never know is a shame i can't do a test - I don't have any of these dolls yet.

 

NO would look much too large!

If you look up dear volks body you might like it. The body is chunkier than the SDM but not as tall as the SD. That body can take SD and SD13 heads. Although they will always seem slightly large.

On the down side it's a hard to get body/doll and only available by lottery once in a blue moon. Here is an old post:
Limited Items - 【VOLKS USA】 Dear Super Dollfie® March 2017 Lottery!
You can't just buy this body. They do come up in the second hand market place from time to time. Not inexpensive though due to rarity.

HERE great page with lots of info that will help you to see sizes and also the SDM and the Dear body compared to others.

hi everyone, just a general question. What size of the eye is everyone's favorite? 14mm?

 

Wow that is a great bjd size database! Thank you!
I cannot apply for the Lottery as I am not in USA ( I live in Europe and Volks have no events here....unfortunately)
But I do love the MSD size better as you can easily take your doll with you everywhere.
My dream is to visit Japan visit Volks shops, second hand shops and buy whatever my eye likes there!

 

@at11954 We usually use 16mm for this size. I've seen 18mm used to great effect as well, but 14mm tends to be a little too small for Volks' MSD size.

 

Hina is my favourite sculpt of the new standard models. If I were to buy one, I hope I'd get the long reddish wig. That colour looks really pretty with her purple eyes. Hina is one of the childlike mini dolls with stylized faces that I might get in the future. How do you think SD midi compares to similar-looking dolls from other companies?

 

Gosh, I hope that Volks USA does another online FCS for the SDM's soon! The last one was for the big dolls, so I'm crossing my fingers. I have my eye on a couple of sculpts and am hoping to not have to try and find a FCS shopping service.

@Allie27 ~ Hina is so cute and I adore her eyes! I only own a MSD (Nasia), but they are extremely similar in size to the SDM. IMHO, Volks minis tend to be more child-like than most other companies' "child-like" minis. Their head/body proportions and thicker, undeveloped bodies make them great as little kids (say, 5-8 years old). I've noticed that a lot of child-like minis have cute young faces but with proportions more like tweens or teens -- smaller heads and slimmer bodies with obvious signs that puberty has started, basically.

IMHO, some similarly child-like dolls would be Dikadoll, Bluefairy, Daydream, and the younger looking Luts Kid Delfs (such as Yeondu and Steen) -- these companies all offer a child-like body option (or at least did at some point).

 

@Dolly Unfortunately FCS isn't super likely - even if we do get an October set it'll probably be SD16/SDGr like it has been the past few years. We probably won't see SDM FCS again until March at the earliest unless they do something special for the anniversary.

 

@ekala ~ thank you so much for the info -- and that link is super helpful! I have an SD16 on my wishlist as well, so I suppose it is actually good news for me if they aren't both offered at the same time. I shall just have to be patient for an SDM FCS.
