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

What a beautiful doll!

 

I got a girly lacefront wig for Zhara (SD-F-26).

 

I am in the wonderful position of being able to finally bring a Regulus home - but as yet it's just his head. It's not going to be a problem for some time (thanks to layaway!), but what are the hybriding options for Volks' bronze skin? I'm guessing the Volks bronze bodies don't come up that often..?

 

Question - what is the shoulder width measurement for SD17 boy? I'm trying to figure out a hybrid, and it's the one dimension (and a fairly important one!) that's not on the SD17 wiki page. Thanks in advance.

 

Someone else may have a more accurate one, I had to wrestle with my boy's shirt hah. But id say about 17 cm from the outermost part of the upper arm to the other, or 14 cm from socket to socket (so just the torso part), if that helps. That was across his back, not sure if the front is better if it's a head scale question!

 

@aihre I got 15cm shoulder width including arms, 11cm without arms, from the front of the doll.

 

@Ayaka @castironteapot Wonderful, thank you both! I suspect SD17 has shoulder width closer to 15cm, since my 65cm and 68cm boys all have around that shoulder width. I will add this to the wiki too

 

It looks like the FCS prices went up on the 19th.

 

I got the 2 way blouse dress from the Dolpa Osaka 10 collection for my SD13 girl and I'm disappointed. The material feels like cheap plastic, and the lace is not very nice. I suppose it's just a doll so it doesn't matter how cheap her clothes feel, but it's my first item from Volks that's felt so carelessly made. Oh well.

I'm glad to see FCS returning next month. I wonder if the lineup will be the same as last time. I understand the jewels are hard to get, so I assume they will be the options again, but it's fun to see some of the "numbered" FCS heads in combination with the SD16 body.

 

Yeah, the basic blouses... aren't great... Sock fabric and lace is also kinda eh. Wasn't too thrilled with what that $80 nun set looked like either--up close, the entire thing looked like a cheap polyester Spirit Halloween costume for a doll. It could be that they put more of the budget towards the featured jumpers and dresses instead. Like you can run a finger down the Etoile or the Medic or the Touhou Gear set brocades and laces and it's got crazy nice texture to it, so it's mind-boggling that the nun set costs the same as those without the quality.

But it could be worse. Look at what they put out for Dollfie Dreams--the choice and quality of fabric is like night and day compared to the SD lines (I wonder if it's on purpose, different customer bases and all).

I do wish they would put out more ecrue cream-colored skirts and stuff in the SD fashion line though. A lot of crisp bright white lately aside from the lemon dress.

 

Here’s a DWC 01 that I modded and painted and named Nadine. I really wanted to mod one doll in my lifetime and chose her.. ❤️

 

@Lyrajean thank you so much! I painted her a few times before this and really she can look so different and that I love about this mold. She is a very unique Volks face mold as to why I chose her! ❤️

 

The DD stuff used to be nicer, but it just about all feels like it's one step away from cheap Barbie clothes now. For the same price, of course. And what they've done to the Miku sets (the single piece of printed panel is NOT my thing) is disappointing.


Does anyone know of an updated list that shows what FCS sculpts are available or discontinued? There's one sculpt in particular that came on the second hand market I really, really want. I'm trying to decide if it's worth it to buy or if I should just wait. Assuming it's not discontinued.

 

The latest Volks News lists SDM-F-20, SDM-F-42, SDM-F-53, SD-F-54 and SD-F-56 as being discontinued at Sumika locations at the end of this October. I can check the past few issues too if you'd like?

She's so cute!!!! Ahhh I love her!

She looks like she's just about to go out into the forest and pick mushrooms.

 

i love taking dolls outside for photos!! they always look so vibrant

 

Thank you for this! As I feared, the head is discontinued.

Now I need to decide if I have room or finances to welcome a new doll home off-plan. Someone tell me no

 

Awe thank you, I was actually surprised she turned out so cute. Her look changes pretty dramatic with different wig colors. This one made her stand out the most, my favorite. ❤️
