    1. Thank you for the great pictures. I love Mihmi -- she is adorable. Yesterday when I was at Volks they said that she is Toppi's friend. Thanks again. barbara-fate
       
    2. Awww, I'm sorry, Nabee. :( Don't worry! :) Maybe you'll be able to get her afterwards!!! :chibi If I win her, I'll try to take lots of pictures for you!!! :D

      I hope you can get them, Miriam!!! :D Your dolls and pictures are so beautiful!! :love I love to watch your family grow!! :aheartbea
       
    3. Yay!!! :D Thank you, barbarafate!!! :chibi Now we know that she is Toppi's friend and not a relation! :) I can't wait for her story to be translated into English!!! :dance
       
    4. Thanks so much for the pictures, Megu-chan! <3

      Mihmi just keeps looking cuter, sigh. Her eyes and nose(?) REALLY remind me of Mimi, who I adore, but her mouth is less anime-like. I told myself no Volks MSD's -- I've been planning to get a double-jointed slim mini for way to long -- but Mihmi is definitely making me reconsider my plans!
       
    5. Aw thank you Cammy! :aheartbea I really hope you and everyone else who wants her gets her, I would love to see this little lady around the boards <3
       
    6. Me too!!! :D Even if I don't win her, it'll be lovely to see her all over DoA!!! :love
       
    7. Would some of you please email and let me know what dolls and items of interest from Nagoya 4 you like. For example-makeup,outfits,wigs,etc. I'd appreciate it - [email protected]

      PS: now taking Nagoya 4 orders for Kerbey Lane Doll Shoppe
       
    8. I love Michele's outfit :aheartbea
      and Mihmi has the cutest eyes.
      Thanks to everyone who posted the blogs and pics for the 'sneak peeks' :)
      I'm sure many will be happy to have a new chance at Michele.
       
    9. are they offering williams?!?!? omg!! i love williams! but most of all Michelle was the doll i was planning to get next!!! OMG OMG i can't believe they re released Michelle~~~ AHHH!!! why does volks do this to me?? well instead of buying that diamond ring i think i will enter in for Michelle once they have it available in international site or volksusa.
       
    10. No, the Williams is for a separate event. He's for the Kobe Cruise in October.

      Michele, Mihmi, Suzuna, and Rengemaru are all for Nagoya Dolpa in August.
       
    11. My question is if the VolksUSA website will have a lottery for Nagoya 4's items just as what they did for DP 20's items before?
       
    12. *blinks*

      Wow that was fast for Volks and thanks JDblithie for finding the pictures! :)

      I so knew Kaori had to have made the outfit for Mihmi, it just looks like one of her designs.
       
    13. I didn't see the sofa on the pictures. maybe they will be only available at the event?
       
    14. Oh squee updates :D! Mihmi's story is cute... she and Toppi really are little kids! Even though they both wear the same size eye... Mihmi's look a lot bigger!
       
    15. Oh my...I really want Michele and Rengemaru...
      Does anyone know when will Volks have the online lottery?
      I'm gonna try my chance this time...x3
       
    16. They updated the portal with photos already? That certainly was prompt. :) Can anyone tell if Michele's body has a torso joint? I'm assuming it doesn't, but I don't see that detail being mentioned anywhere in the description.
       
    17. Who is the girl in Michele's story supposed to be?
       
    18. They should :chocoberry
       
    19. I've been safe for a while now since lately I haven't been too enticed by some of the releases in past dolpas, but I have to say Mihmi has stolen my heart!
       
    20. Thanks very much! I also asked customer service this morning and they said they would. Such a good news!!! I want my Michele!!! They also asked me which doll I will enter the lottery for. Do you think they would increase the number of Michele they would have if many people tell them they want Michele? In other word~ Will they increase the quota of Michele for USA? I just guess and hope. OMG~~ I need Michele!!
       
    21. Really not sure if it does increase numbers but we can always hope so :aheartbea
       
    22. I just put in for Suzuna so here's hoping.

      I really would like to get more SD17 outfits for my boy but all the outfits so far have been just black and white with shades of gray. I want so more colorful SD17 outfits!:(
       
    23. Ugh i hate volks stop releasing good dollfie dreams dangit ><
       
    24. Okay, I've never done this before. If I just wanted to enter for one of the dresses how would I go about doing that? Would I just email the person from Kerby lane or is she only taking entried for dolls?
       
    25. I thought I am not gonna say this but I want Michele. T^T
      But I like Michele girl more though. LOL!

      I wonder how the AE works, never try before.
      I don't have CC, will they accept Paypal instead? :(
       
    26. I am pretty sure the international site takes Pay Pal (at least used to). ^_^
       
    27. Depends on the outfit.

      Assuming you are in North America....

      I believe Sasara's To Heart outfit, the DD Maid Robot Outfit, and Louise's Bustier set (assuming they are available to the foreign market which will be based on licensing agreements) would need to be entered via lottery like the Dolpa Dolls.

      However all the other outfits are available first come first serve on the VolksUSA website once they arrive (which is usually 2-3 months after the Dolpa occurs in Japan.) Kerbey Lane and WLD will also be selling the outfits based on the stock Volks sends them. Again, I'm pretty sure it is first come/first serve once the outfits are in stock.

      You can also try the AE for things. Personally, with the dollar to yen ratio where it currently is, VolksUSA/Kerbey Lane/WLD might have lower prices than getting things through the AE, but the AE is probably faster.
       
    28. NabeeRain Thank you so much for answer.

      But how does it work? :sweat
      I enter for lottery then I send money to their account?
      Or wait until the lottery result first then they ask for payment? ><
       
    29. Maybe it has changed, but when I entered it was send money after you get confirmation.
       
    30. Okay, Kim... I've been hearing you whimper about Michele for YEARS on at least two fora, so you'd BETTER BE BUYING!!! XD

      I hope you get your dream boy!
      <3

    31. Oh you better believe that I pulled a miracle out of you know where so that I will have the money put aside to buy him! But thanks, I am one of those unlucky people who is going to need all the crossed fingers she can get to get him.

      Clearly, I need to make sarcastic comments like "You know, now that I have bought that Breakaway I've always wanted, Volks is going to spite me by rereleasing Michele tomorrow," more often. Because I said that Thursday night. :sweat
       
    32. First you enter for the lottery, or "sign-up" for your doll of choice.
      You do not need to send any money at this time.
      If you get a confirmation e-mail of winning, you will need to send the payment.
      Everyone is given only 24 hours before they cancel your order. As a warning for those who cannot pay : They have a policy of not taking anymore future orders from you. So do not order if you cannot pay.

      You can pay by Paypal.
       
    33. usagi665: Thank you.

      nurie: Wow! Thanks Nurie!
      I wish I could get him but I am rather bad luck when it comes to chance or lottery. :(
      I hope everyone can win! :love
       

    34. no problem XD seriously though it never hurts to try if you do decide to get him ( well.. her in this case XDD ) >3<! I wish you the best of luck!~ :aheartbea
       
    35. RE: outfits - Volks has told me we will not get the outfit offering until after the dolls are released, same as always. Kerbey Lane has always received the outfit offer about a month or so after. If people send me their request I am entering their name. Winning names will be notified when the time comes because by then they may have gotten the outfits throught Volks.

    36. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you too! :aheartbea
       
    37. ... Oh darn... Michele :sorry. Why now that I don't have any money?
       
    38. Some of those new outfits are very nice. Those garden Kimonos look wonderful!
       
    39. Does anyone know if Volks International will be getting those couches? I don't see it on the website :(
       
    40. Okay guys, kinda a dumb question, but we can't put in with Volks yet, right? Only with Kerby Lane so far? Thanks!
       
    41. Yes, Volks doesn't usually start taking names until the day of the Dolpa in Japan. Presumably We Love Dolls might be taking names now as well.
       
    42. Mihmi reminds me of Luna, she's very cute and i love that name! :D
       
    43. Official pictures are up on Volks website (sorry if this is a double post) I post the link in the first thread. ^_^
       
    44. wow, I never thought I will fall for any sd10 boys, but Michele I just cannot pass. love this boy~~~(and the outfit and wig is just as cute >w<
       
    45. Michelle is really adorable. He looks like a little gay boy pretending to be Lisa Minelli in Cabaret. Love him. ~Gus
       
    46. So true! I have to say I have a hard time believing that he is looking for a girl in Kyoto with that outfit on. *snerk*
       
    47. Add my *snerk* to your *snerk*. I was just mentioning that to a friend of mine as well. xD
       
    48. I love Michelle too, yeah I agree with everyone--he's not going to get a girl dressed like that. But I do love the outfit! I hope I can snag it from the marketplace sometime in the future without making my wallet shrivel up anymore than it has ><. The outfit looks very ouji-loli (especially the pants, they look like their from Alice and the Pirates~)
       
    49. I think Michele will find his girl... and she'll be the fluffiest, cutest little loli girl you've ever seen. Matching boyfriends make the best accessories after all. :aheartbea
       
    50. Oh, my. I knew, I knew that Michele will be released soon!
      But it will be Lucky-Lottery again, and I'd die if I fail. :|
      I'm not that lucky on Volks lottery, :doh

      I WANT HIM!
       
    51. how you get into lottery for dollfie dream kusugawa? Im in cali usa
       
    52. We have to wait and see if they will be offered in the US first or at the international after event. Most dollifes are offered, but sometimes licensed characters are only offered in Japan. I am hoping they will be available to everyone, but we just have to wait to be sure. They will announce it on volksUSA website and I will post a link in the first thread as soon as they do. ^_^
       
    53. I really want the sofa this time! ><
      Not sure if we ever have chance to get that sofa...
       
    54. why Michele now..... whyyy?? I need to decide between him and williams.... aughhh I really love michele's outfit!
       
    55. gosh! I am in lust with mihmi! *___*
       
    56. Ahh, Mihmi is so cute, I think she's one of the best MSD molds! She reminds me a bit of School B actually, though it might just be the angle of the photos. Either way, she's adorable... I doubt I'll try for her, but I have a while to change my mind! :lol:
       
    57. printenna: I think Mihmi is really cute! She could make a nice sister for Aria.
      They got same nose. :D
      But I want Michele more and make him into a girl! :doh
       
    58. Koyuki~ I think Michele would be so cute in your family!

      Michele seems to be a very versatile mold (gender wise). It'll be wonderful to see some girl (and boy) Michele around DoA~
      I am now most definitely obsessed with his outfit, I think the instead of boots the outfit should of had black rocking horse shoes. But I'm guessing the boots created some masculine touch of some kind...
       
    59. I am certain that there are some Micheles floating around on DoA as both genders from the previous release. I personally like the mold as a girl. :)
