Volks Dollfie Dream Mini discussion part 1

How cute! My ddh-22 is also named Sakura. Actually, she is my daughter's and she named her. So, hello Sakura from Sakura!

 

I decided to revamp one of my old customized DDH-01 heads with a new mouth mod, and although it was a struggle I think she ended up really cute :3

 

@nintendallie & @zankitsu , Both Sakuras are adorable! 22's have the sweetest smile.

@jadepixel I love her little fangs


I finally got my hands on my last grail DD,Komaki Manaka! I put her on a mochiashi body and I think its works great. Her name is Megumi

 

I got a Liliru! I didn't like her wig when I saw it online but I actually really like it in person and she might keep it.

 

@kittydorkdork I was looking at getting a Liliru, and was concerned about the wig too. Glad to hear it’s really nice, and Liliru is now definitely at the top of my list. Your girl is so cute!

I was able to buy the Sakuramusubi Miko outfit and the white fox ears/tail for my someday mdd. I’m thinking Liliru would look adorable in it….

 

I also have a liliru! She has such a sweet face and looks so good in dark colored wigs, it really makes her eyes pop!

(sorry I was trying to upload a picture and I can't get it to work )

 

I have a Liliru too!

 

@Cydril Komaki is so much cuter in person than in her promotional photos. I really like her face shape! Congrats on getting her!

Spoiler

I finally took photos of Atlas. Even though he keeps me company at my work desk he gets the short end of the stick when it comes to actually photographing.

 

Hi! I need some help with my mdd's internal frame: Is it possible to fit a newer part (upper torso) on an older model frame? I fear my doll's torso might break soon and I might need to replace it.
Thanks!!

 

I believe most parts of the f3 frame aren't compatible with the MDD3 frame. Your best bet is to try to reinforce cracked parts, see if you can find a junk body for parts or just a full body swap.

 

I'll do that, thanks!!

 

I got her head around November but I got really busy. Decided to take her to my friend's house after mayhem ends, borrow their props and...I got a first decent picture of her.



Hope I have more time from now on so I can take her anywhere lol.

btw, this is my first MDD and first 1/4 scales in my house, and I really love the fact that she can go anywhere with just my regular backpack haha.

 

@Eienfuyu She is really cute! I am glad you found a place with good lighting to share her with us!

 

So I managed to get to Doll Point and got one of the new MDD Integrated Asexual boys. However, I'm having an absolute hell of a time finding sewing patterns for him, so right now he's in a stray DD t-shirt and the boxers he came in (lolsob).

I've taken detailed measurements if anyone has an idea of what other dolls he might be similar to-- it almost seems like he'd wear slim mini boy shirts but maybe regular MDD pants? I have no idea haha. But since it doesn't seem like there are many details to be found on this body online, here's the measurements where they differ from the standard MDD body:

Neck circumference: 7.2cm (.2cm bigger)
Shoulder width: 8cm (.5cm smaller)
Chest circumference: 15cm (.5cm smaller than MDD S bust)

All other measurements are the same as the MDD body.

I haven't owned an MDD before, so I have no comparisons between the standard and Integrated Asexual body. However, I will mention that the torso is one piece-- There is no join between upper and lower torso. This does limit posing slightly, however with as soft as the vinyl is in his torso, it's not a huge deal.

 

Hey!!
Does anyone know what the measurements are for MDD bust sizes M and L?
I've looked so many places and can only find the 15.5cm measurement for the S bust

 

I measure with clothes on but I got about 16.5 for M and 20.5 for L

 

Sakura with my tiny PACMAN cabinet~

 

Just a little spam of my new girl. She's borrowing a wig and body for the meantime ^^

 

Hi! Just wanted to let you know that these measurements have been very helpful. I've included them with credit in a working collaborative draft I've been working on with another user to update the Dollfie Dream wiki page.

 

I'm so glad they're helpful for you!
As an update, standard MDD stuff fits him just fine. Yuki is an absolute precious bean.

 

Besides the Volks store, what are your favourite online stores that sell anime eyes for mini dolfie dream?

 

Haven't really played with my girls for a year or so ; o ;

What are the mochi ashi body measurements?
Do Azone clothes fit the moch ashi body?

 

You can see the Mochi Ashi body measurements when you click on MDD: DDボディサイズと種類 | ボークス公式 ドルフィー総合サイト | 株式会社ボークス

It depends on the size & style of the Azone outfit. I've put 45cm Azone dresses on my MDD Mochi Ashi girl with no trouble.

 

Well, I’ve decided to enter the latest Volks clothing lottery, my first ever. I just love the Ranchu Goldfish dress set. If I win, yay, if not, that’s ok too.

 

Slowly setting up my doll room aka my happy place. Here's a phone quality photo of my mdd girls

 

@Leeli
So much cute!
your girls are adorable and their little space is so fun

also, love your icon

 

Omg Arle and tanned DCH-19 with elf ears?? Taaaste ; w ;

I have a couple of new pictures with my babies and really thinking to get my own tanned DCH-19 with elf ears to join the gang at some point

 

@Lera they're so cute I love her little surprised face.

I put new eyes in my Manaka today

 

Just wanted to poke in and let everyone know, MDD and MDD Mochi Ashi base bodies are being discontinued. MDDベースボディ生産終了のお知らせ | ボークス公式 ドルフィー総合サイト | 株式会社ボークス
It's fairly likely they'll be redoing the shells (I hope...) as MDD is incredibly popular in Japan (and everywhere else of course)

 

Super surprised about the MDD discontinuation. The responses to the announcement tweet seem to feel the same as well. I imagine they're making a new body. Crossing fingers for double jointed if they do.

As a heads up in case anyone has been meaning to get a body and can pay in USD, with the current exchange rate they're not as expensive as usual. That is, if you can get Volks JP to load.

 

I'm really curious if they're just gonna update the frame or the outer shell too. Never had any problems with my f3 frame myself but maybe too many complaints about loose mochi ashi legs came in.

Spoiler: honehime set

My first outfit by machi got here, let's see if it stains

 

Since they just announced Yor, I really wonder if they are gonna reboot the size with Anya from Spy x Family.

 

Honestly was wondering this too, since I was surprised Anya wasn't first either. In that context the decision makes sense but I wish the wording on it wasn't quite so sudden/harsh (? if that's the word).

I was planning to get some spare legs for wearing some staining outfits I have but now I'm thinking to wait and possibly just have new bodies completely...

 

Stopped by to share my new girl. I am very excited about her. She doesn't have a name yet but she has a mochi ashi body and a ddh10 and the larger hands. Below, in a spoiler, she poses with Mia who has the regular mdd body and is a ddh22 and has the smaller hands.

Does anyone know how to deal with floppy hip joint? One leg keeps just falling down when I try to sit my MDD.

 

Is it an f-3 body? If it is it’s likely not seated properly, there’s a little notch that needs to match up for it to go in.
There’s a guide on Volks website: SUPPORT　How to handle DD-f3
It’s worth mentioning that the notch in the torso doesn’t move, so you just need to rotate the thigh piece so that the gap in the joint is facing towards you like this:

Spoiler: doll nudity lol

I find doing this makes it much easier to get the joint in.

 

First time dropping by this thread! Here are two of my MDD girls, on the left is Kokomi, a DDH-22 head on a mochiashi body and to the right is Rin, a DDH-28 head on the regular MDD body.



I have a floating DDH-01 head as well that I switch in and out, but I'll share her another time

 

They are adorable. Where did you get the outfits?

 

Thank you.

 

Thank you! The outfit on the left is from nanairo tentou and the one on the right is from Doll Hearts

 

How does a MDD compare to a Parabox/Obitsu 40cm doll?

 

The bodies are similar size but Parabox heads tend to be smaller than Volks. The Parabox doll has a wider range of motion (except in the wrists), but the joints are more noticeable than Volks ones.

 

Does someone own an MDD and SQ Lab MSD and can show me a comparison?
Or also Obitsu 40 with MDD?
I'm looking for (Anime) doll options that are a bit smaller than Volks MDD, like half a head smaller (I know about Tinyfox but Sqlab is also tempting by the size chart numbers)

 

Finally posting my new girl here after mentioning that I want a tan DCH21 with elf ears for like 3 years XD
She will need a new make-up but I'm so excited to be back in this hobby after almost a year of being inactive ; w ;

 

Oh, your tan elf is adorable. The turquoise wig looks great on her!

 

Hubby granted me a wish for a Volks MDD full set. Only my second full set and that first one was a decade ago. She is supposed to be on way, but tracking isn't encouraging. Hopefully by my birthday.

 

Meet Sasami by Marie, on Flickr
She arrived today. I put her in this outfit as getting cooler here. Her full set will be for meet ups as don't want to ruin it. She's a MDD Rena Ryugu and I adore her.

 

@animemom congratulations! I love Rena with her orange hair and blue eyes! I have one too. The outfit you picked for her is perfect! Enjoy having your first MDD!

 

Thank you. I am enjoying her and can't wait to show photos in her full set.

 

Hello everyone! I recently won a yahoo japan auction for a custom mdd girl with the 29 head! She's not home yet so all i have rn are her auction pics I hope that's ok. I'm thinking of naming her Taru!

 

Does anyone else absolutely LOVE the vinyl smell of a (M)DD? I can't stop smelling Cammy!

 

It really does smell so good
Especially compared to resin, hehe

 

I impulse bought a DDH-27 head to customize into Sakura Kinomoto. But, I always said if Volks released a CCS Sakura, I would definitely buy her... years and years passed and nothing. So I will do it myself!
It's surprisingly hard to find a suitable wig. That's always how it goes when you are looking for something specific. Now I just have to wait... and find some MSC.

 

I'm actually surprised there's no CCS dolls... now that I think about it, wouldn't it be perfect? Think about all of the outfits they could sell along with Sakura too... I would instantly buy Sakura (and a Syaoran). Good luck with the custom!

 

I have the same wish to have an official Sakura from Volks, but I guess it's not going to happen... show her once she's ready

 

Hello everyone! 2 mdds are joining my family soon and I'm looking for cute clothes for them, any shop suggestion?

 

My MDD has an MSD-sized dress from Alice's Collections on at the moment, you just need to check the measurements to make sure it won't be too small. Besides that, Taobao and Booth both have many MDD-centric shops!

 

She's here! Hopefully I can take proper pics someday.

My new little cuties are here!!
You can see Lyra (ddh-22) at the left and Astra (ddh-27) at the right, aren't they cute?
