Dolpa 17 Discussion

Apr 2, 2007

    1. Dolpa 17:D
      May 4th at Tokyo Big Sight....
      Japanese Sit's up.
      Just when you thought your wallets couldn't take another Hit:roll:.... New Dollies!!:blush... Maybe I'll be safe this time Around (He says laughingly):lol:
      ~Anthony
       
    2. Nautical theme, hmm? I'm expecting to see Elizabeth at this one. If they rerelease Sylvie or do Cyndy in tan I'll be in trouble :sweat
       
    3. No, bad Volks BAD! I must not be tempted by anything until AFTER the NY Dolls Party! :sweat But we know how likely that is to happen.... Ugh between Volks and eLuts I'm just never ever going to have a decent bank balance. >_>
       
    4. hmm I think I'll wait to buy my doll then....maybe I'll like the limited available. (Can international people buy the guidebook too?)
       
    5. Anyone can buy the guide book once they put the link up on the site, but keep in mind it'll be almost entirely in Japanese and printed in greyscale.
       
    6. Ugggg, not ANOTHER AE! I'm kinda hoping for a Sweet Dream Cyndy...
      But then again I hope there is nothing I want, or only 1 thing.
       
    7. oh I was thinking it would have at least pics and yen prices of the limiteds (like the catalog they sent me with all the Osaka3 stuff)
       
    8. I'm sure in this Dolpa Volks will sell YoSD Chinatsu and Kuuta in Sweet Dreams version :doh (*dies for Tinatsu SwD*).

      Woah.. Volks is doing Dolpas so fast ;_;
       
    9. Ooo! :o I'd forgotten about Elizabeth! :D I hope she's pretty. :chibi

      Sweet Dream Cyndy would be wonderful!!! :love

      Oh boy, I'm sure I'll be nearly broke after the NY Dolpa.... *_* I hope there won't be anything I want too badly. :eusa_pray

      I really like the sea-fairing theme! ARRRGGHH, Matey! :apirate:
       
    10. Did you get the news or the Dolpa guide? The news is the one in color, the Dolpa guide is almost the same as the news but in greyscale.
       
    11. oh ok...I guess I got the news
       
    12. I'll laugh if there's another Cecil. >_>;
       
    13. How does one get volks news anyway?
       
    14. I'm hoping for another Williams!
       
    15. I was sent it with an order

      (Edit:yes it was the international site)
       
    16. I'm hoping there's nothing I want :).

      Marcia.
       
    17. Is that orders from the international site?

      I'm hoping for a nice Yo girl
       
    18. Japanese webpage is opened http://www.volks.co.jp/jp/event/dolpa17/index.html :)
      I am so excited with this Dolpa but also โ€œextremely terrifiedโ€... Volks please do not release any beautiful dolls now... I cannot afford one more dollfie right now :(
       
    19. Since this Dolpa is so close to the New York one, is it possible that they might be selling the same dolls? I just can't see Volks having two batches of new limiteds released so close together!

      Ugh, my dolly debt has no hope of disappearing. :-p
       
    20. Last year Volks only sold one doll at the NYC Dolpa, and they always sell more than one at the International Dolpas (because they're much bigger :) ). It is possible that they would sell the same doll at both, but I doubt it, since the people who run the NYC Dolpa are big about having "exclusive" items.
       
    21. Finally a Dolpa I can attend! WHOOOOOOOOOTTTTT!

      I'm hoping someone I really want comes out, because damnit I need to take advantage of this.
       
    22. Oh, one doll would make sense!
       
    23. Oh no....
      Not another one. These are becoming a problem. There's always SOME doll that I want... *sigh* DARN Volks! Stop taking my money! You have too many pretty dolls as it is! *cry*
      How many dolls can I manage to buy living in Japan for only 1 year?!
       
    24. mmeh how evil i need to hold out until xmas T,,T,,somehow...

      ;_; if they release anything important imma die
       
    25. xD I second this!
       
    26. luckily I have been safe from the last two dolpas, but if it is a Nautical theme, I think I should be safe (unless they re-release JUN Tachibana) speaking of her, do you think she will be re-released at the dolpa in LA later this year?
       
    27. Oh man I'm going to be so upset if they release a SD16 boy at Dolpa 17 and not the New York Dolpa. :...( But still, I'm rather excited to see what will be new this time around. :kitty2
       
    28. Here we go again! Woo!!!
       
    29. Ack another AE *_*
       
    30. I'm really curious to see what they release. Probably the only doll I would buy for sure would be a Jun re-release or a really cute Yo. Otherwise I gotta save up for the NYC Dolpa!
       
    31. ><;; my list keeps expanding...

      Heres what I would like.

      Another cute Yo (something along the lines of Yuki's head mould)
      Sweet Dream Cyndy
      Punky SD13 Long Leg boy (Shiro Tachi./Tsukasa Kanoe style but with a less natural "pretty" faceup)
      Sunlight SD13 Long Leg Boy
      Jun Tachi.
      A winning lottery ticket
      'nother punk or loli Colab doll
      A cute MSD girl

      and (.000000001% chance of this happening) a Yo-Tenshi avaliable to us in north america
       
    32. :eusa_pray please, please! Hewitt or another MSD/SDC boy! One that isn't a frog! We need more MSD molds!!
       
    33. I hope they release or rerelease someone from Cecile's story..maybe Elisabeth, or that sweet dream Cecile I've been waiting for? XD hmm, better save my pennies, you never know..though I doubt it will be Cecile, since there has been a Cecile rerelase not so long ago, buuuut then again that one was really hard to get so maybe they think a Cecile for a dolpa would be good too..

      ..which I agree with, Cecile's are always good xD If Elisabeth is anything like Cindy though, maybe combined with the slightly more realistisch sculpts Volks releases lately..well, I'm sold xD
       
    34. I want to see ANAIS as limited models.........give me a chance please......I don't want to see another one-off ANAIS! *die*
      A lovely YO-SD girl is also what I want. >////<
       
    35. No re-releases, please. I want to see some new models, especially for the MSD line. I'm kinda tired of seeing Manabus and Midoris on Yahoo! Japan. Variety is good. :D
       
    36. I would love to see a new MSD. I've always wanted one, but could never make up my mind.. then they would go out of stock. *_*

      I was looking for a MSD when I found my Carol.
       
    37. Does anyone know when does VOLKS start releasing the News Book before an upcoming Dolpa? I plan on ordering items from Volks Int. and I want to do so around the same time that VOLKS sends News Books with orders.
       
    38. I hope there is another Lolita collaboration.

      I missed out on the last two...

      :(


      However, because of the nautical theme, I doubt it.

      Unless they do a Pirate Lolita of some kind...


      THAT WOULD BE AWESOME.

      *A*​
       
    39. Volks is amazing. I don't see how they can do all this. I kinda hope I don't HAVE to have what they are offering so I can save for NYC.
      Pirate Lolita would bankrupt me!
       
    40. Pirate Lolita.... oh man that would so rock. :kitty2 But at the same time yeah.... The suspense!
       
    41. >< >< ><
      the veins at the side of my head is popping out.
      when will the english site come out?
       
    42. I hope they have another open eyed yo girl with a naturalistic faceup.
       
    43. Well they already did one outfit from Alice and the Pirates and it was the least popular lolita thing at the last Dolpa :sweat
       
    44. That's cause those of us with SD10s didn't get it. I loved that outfit but I feared it wouldn't fit.
       
    45. I wanted that outfit so bad, but I didn't win it in the lottery. :(
       
    46. yeah, least popular is all relative ;)
       
    47. I'm thinking they're probably going to release an SD13 girl this time, hopefully someone new. I base this on them releasing SD10 swarriko girls for the past three or four Dolpa's and thinking that even they would think it's time for a change of pace. :fangirl: Hopefully I'm right, 'cause I really want to have more access to UV Pureskin SD13 girl bodies. :sweat

      Maybe they'll release a Suntan boy too, though.. I almost doubt that, because sunskin seems almost protected by Volks; but maybe they'd release a sunskin punk collab. boy? That would be interesting.
       
    48. I'd also like to see a new MSD girl in a more realistic style! There need to be more to choose from. :)
       
    49. mmmmmhhhhhhhh I hope a release of Kohya and Tohya *_*
      ohhhhhh :P
       
    50. How soon before the Dolpa do they usually release pics/info for the new dolls? May is so close....it has to be within a couple of weeks, doesn't it?

      Are all the Dolpas usually this close together?

      I'm wondering if I should wait to get a Maria until I see what the new dolls will be... :sweat
       
    51. I'm also hoping for another SD13 Girl:D They are LONG overdue, plus I too need a couple of UV Protected Pureskin SD13 Girl bodies for my girls;)..... And the rumored SD16 Prince:sweat That would be very nice;)
      ~Anthony
       
    52. I'm not anticipating images or info on dolls for at least two weeks, though I would love to be proven wrong about that :lol:

      There is usually a golden week Dolpa, so yes this one happens at this time every year. It just seems close because the Dolpa doll shipments to the U.S. are so much slower than the ones in Japan. The last Dolpa was back on March 18th, so they're relatively far apart since this one will be in May.

      Although I must say that with the NY Dolpa and the supposed LA Dolpa, this is going to be a very busy year for Volks and their fans. Much moreso than last year or 2005.
       
    53. Ohmigod yes please!!! :...(
       
    54. Noo *-* can't afford a second Kohya right now :sweat
       
    55. No SD16B please!~ Kennot afford him right now!~ (unless someone sell me his head, then I slowly collect his body's fund)
       
    56. If they released an MSD similar to the new F-18 face my NY Dolpa budget would suffer
       
    57. Sorry posted in the wrong thread
       
    58. I'm hoping they don't re-release Kohya and Tohya because it's hard enough to sell Kohya now. X_X I do really want to see a new SD16 boy, though if they do that I'm in serious trouble. :sweat
       
    59. A prince SD16!! *_* ohhhh
      Nooooo just now nooooo!!
      Now I can't afford for a SD16.... T.T I want SD16 but in a future

      I'm poooooooor :( :(

      I'm anxious to see the new models... I think that we can see a new SD13 boy.
       
    60. I think there will be a new collabo doll... maybe SD13 boy in white skin :D
      And I am almost sure that they will release new character from Cecile's story (you can see an anchor in the Dolpa logo :) )... Maybe at last Elizabeth or (praying) re-release of Lady Sylvie or Cyndy :love (Sweet Dream Cyndy :aheartbea )...
