1. It has come to the attention of forum staff that Dollshe Craft has ceased communications with dealers and customers, has failed to provide promised refunds for the excessive waits, and now has wait times surpassing 5 years in some cases. Forum staff are also concerned as there are claims being put forth that Dollshe plans to close down their doll making company. Due to the instability of the company, the lack of communication, the lack of promised refunds, and the wait times now surpassing 5 years, we strongly urge members to research the current state of this company very carefully and thoroughly before deciding to place an order. For more information please see the Dollshe waiting room. Do not assume this cannot happen to you or that your order will be different.

Volks Super Dollfie - SD, SD13, SD16, SD17, SDGr, SDGou & FCS - XXXIV

Jan 12, 2024

    1. Ahhhh! The GL/VIP blog has teaser photos of the SDs for Kyoto Dolpa. There's SD17 Genji, SDGr Lady Fujitsubo (who might be WS?), and SD Lady Murasaki (the character, not the author). I can't wait to see more of them!

    2. Genji kills me every time I see him. If I wasn't going to Japan in September I'd try to get him.
      The girls are really pretty too.
       
    3. I have never been this excited for a doll release

    4. I’m worried Lady Fujitsubo might have the tiny chin that Yumepi had… but Lady Murasaki/Murasaki no Ue looks a little bit like Sapphire? The one-photo spoilers are both tantalizing and frustrating!!!

    5. Double posting but lots of Bisque announcements today. I wonder how much of the Bisque-owners-only event/outfits/items is them catering to the locals/frequent-buyers complaining about how too many people own Bisques now… Volks sure does make it hard to like their business choices sometimes! The new FFXIV DDs are preorder… I hope Volks does more resin preorders and less of the exclusive/preying-on-fomo stuff!

    6. I definitely think that the clothes issue is one of the reasons they haven't made one yet.

      Volks and their Kingdom Hearts shoes.:lol:

      I would say the Kondo Isami, and Claude sculpts are pretty mature. I think Ludo could also work on a larger body.

      I'm both happy and devastated. I was just wondering if we'd ever get a Bisque boy, and a Seirei body is the next best option. But, I'll never get my hands on one.

      Also, the pointe legs!

    7. @Cloudedmind - those giant shoes are only worn by 70cm guys in my crew. At least they're reliably huge?

      I don't care if this reworked Sakaki is bisque or regular polyurethane, I just like the sculpt! So pretty

    8. ooo two girls for the tale of genji series! Murasaki has such a gentle beauty to her. I can't wait to see clearer photos of her face to get a good look at her sculpt.

    9. I'm amazed to see Genji, 17 years after the first edition debuted. Wow and wow... :aeyepop:

      A little strange that we were just discussing the Echoes of a Beautiful Banquet series, too. :shudder

    12. @BeyondTime, she's so dramatic with the darker hair! Gorgeous!

      The Cruise dolls are posted! Reisner and a new SD16 gal, Abelia. It's also possible to find scans of the Volks News. I wish Volks would just post everything from Volks News online! But they unintentionally ddos themselves every time they release outfits/dolls/etc, so...

    13. She looks great with Bangs. She's cute with her default, but she looks more mature with this wig. It's like the difference between a young teen and an older teen.

    14. Lucky cruise attendees -- at last, a new Reisner! And a hot lady pirate, yohoho! :cool:

    15. SD16 Abelia is so charming with the asymmetric eyes!!! Maybe this calls for a Japan trip, assuming I can win the cruise lottery...
       
    16. Abelia is so pretty!
       
    17. Can’t wait for Genji! It’s only been 16 long years

    18. The bisque Sakaki and those pointed feet :aheartbeaI've been wishing that Volks would release a bisque boy, but I'll accept if Sakaki is the closest we'll get lol.

    20. I noticed looking at Volks News 104 scans that the fluffy penguin kigurumi outfits are labelled as 25th Anniversary Best Selection, which means they were chosen as a result of the polls from last year. That means they are (I think?) the first SD related item rerelease for this round of Best Selection. I’ve been trying to keep track of the releases the polls resulted in on the DD side, as they had their own set of anniversary polls (this current issue also has the DD Best Selection rerelease - Kaede from Idolm@ster).
      So I’m hoping that we will see the actual SDs chosen for Best Selection rereleases soon as well! Maybe December…? I’m so curious about who won in the different categories. It’s still a bummer to me that it was only for the past 5 years, but there was still some nice dolls in those 5 years.

      Anyway it’s been a while since I posted a photo so here’s Oberon (SDF75)
