Volks Hometown Dolpa Osaka 4 Discussion

Plaid? SD size.

 

Thanks Valentine. I'm relieved because I love them but have no MSD's.

 

I'm actually looking for a large bust SD13 girl body so perhaps we could do a split or something?

 

I think you know that I already want to take the wig and clothes if I dont get Cristal as well.

 

Hehe, thank you Cammy Wouldn't he look freakishly adorable with those bunny ears? I've been trying to get the Volks White Cat MSD outfit for him, but so far, no luck. Maybe I'll get this one instead! I want to dress him as a cute animal in the worst way I'm so glad he has a special place in your heart!

I think the smiley should be crying as he hands his wallet over and succumbs to credit card debt

Hmmm.... that's a good point, it's even harder for japanese people to get into the classes than in america. I betcha they'll try and sell them high on Y!J right after dolpa, but maybe they won't get so expensive, like SwD Kaede. She doesn't seem to command very high secondhand prices. Thanks for the input!

You know that you're my hero, right?

 

Volks haven't put them up yet and from the brochure scans I've only translated Nono Sweet Dreams so far. (Can be found here...) I'll get to the others soon as I can.

In summary: they're holding a "meet" for Nono and Nono Sweet Dreams owners. They'll be setting up a special area at Dolpa and you have to bring Nono or Nono SD to attend. The President and Zoukeimura sculptors will be attending to talk to owners. They are also preparing a special present just for Nono/Nono SD owners. Also, they will be bringing a special "board" where they want you to bring along a photo of your Nono/Nono SD and paste it up on the board. After Dolpa they will be taking the board back to Tenshi no Sato and installing it somewhere special for people to look at.
I can translate it word for word if you want (there's some cute stuff about Nono's mischeivous eyes and shy smile capturing the hearts of many fans, etc etc) but basically that's the gist of it.

Here's a link to search Margaret Sweet Dreams on Y!JA. Obviously nothing comes up now but bookmark it in preparation.

 

Thanks for the extra pics, Cassiel~ ^_^

 

Finally Volks News reached my home

Story for Amakusa Shirou Tokisada

南海の美少年　天草四郎時貞　今再びの降臨

あかね雲つながる南海の果て
天草の美しい島々を染めて揺るがす過酷な弾圧の嵐が吹き荒れていた。
やがてその大きな力は怒りとなり、神に救いを求める叫びの声となって
大地を覆い尽くす一揆となっていった。

今より後二十五年。この世の終わりが来る時、十六才の天童がい出、　　　（＜＝出て、の意）
キリストに帰依する者を救うであろう。

寛永十四年十月。ついに天草、島原の地を十字の御旗が埋めつくす。
一揆軍の総大将　「天草四郎時貞」　南海の美少年に続く三万七千の十字架があった。

「天地同根万物一体、一切の衆生貴賎を選ばず」

原城に三月の篭城善戦もおよばず、ついに救世主は天に昇っていったのだ。
殉教の戦は今も天草の民々の心の中に脈々と受け継がれ、一切のものが
平等である事を高らかに伝承し続けているのだ。

 

Story for Cristal

遠くへいってしまった私の小さな妹、リズ。

幸せな日々を送っているだろうか？
もう一度、あの花のような笑顔に遭いたい・・・・。

幼いリズが姉のように慕っていた、従姉妹のクリスタル。
いつも泣き虫リズを守るのはまるで騎士のような彼女の
役目でした。

乳母と過ごした幼い日々は、リズとクリスタルが
二人きりで過ごすことが出来た水晶のような想い出。

遥かなる遠き日々のゆくえとは。
あの日の笑顔をリズに・・・・・
クリスタルが、その一歩を踏み出します。

 

Story for Nono Sweet Dream Ver.

夏の日に出会った
あの人のもとに・・・・・・

潮風が「のの」の頬をそっとなぜてゆく。

遠くに聞こえるのはお船の汽笛かな。

夏の日の、ゆっくりと流れるその時間のなかに、
「のの」の見る夢のお話が・・・・・・・・・

夏の日に出会ったあの人のもとに届くかな？

 

Story for Tanpopo & Ayumu

手のひらの中で微笑む小さなＳＤ達

夏の日差しと共にあなたの手のひらに
飛び込んできた小さなＳＤ。「たんぽぽ」と「あゆむ」

きらきら日差しの中に、ほら
恥ずかしそうに微笑むたんぽぽ。

あゆむは里の小川でメダカさんと遊び疲れ、
木陰でやすんでるのかな。

二人なら、夏の暑さも心地がよいね。

Oooooh, thanks Ria_ria, that saves me heaps of time squinting at kanji! I'll go translate.

 

Haha! あとはお任せしました、dear Cassiel

 

Cassiel has been awake too long (insomniac!) and apologises for the awkwardness of the translation here and there, but would like to get this up for you guys before she falls asleep.

Amakusa's in particular is a bit iffy. It's kinda confusing for me. But I did my best considering my lack of sleep! I'll try and fix it tomorrow.

Amakusa Shirou Tokisada:

For more about Amakusa please see here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amakusa_Shiro

Crystal:

(I apologise profusely for previously citing her as 'big sister!' I hadn't read the whole thing earlier, had only glanced and seen the 'little sister' and 'big sister' parts without recognising the kanji for 'cousin' in there. Anyway, she feels like a big sister, which is what counts, right? )

Tanpopo and Ayumu:

(So much cute!)

*runs off to sleep*

 

WOW Great translation as usual お疲れ様でした

Japanese by Volks itself sometimes (often? ) can be a little strange, so I think it was hard for you to find the best translation

I wish you have a good sleep, dear~

 

mmmmm Crystal is the old sister or cousin of Liz?, I can't understand very well , sorry >.<

 

In fact, a cousin, but they loved each other like as sisters. OK?

 

Ria Ria, so Cristal has an SD Suwarikko body and Nono has SD13 Boy Long Legs? Is this correct? I thought it was switched.

 

Ria_Ria & Cassiel You are truely The absolute Best Thank you so much for the back story information and the extra pictures I can not believe Volks will be releasing that awesome SD16 boy Sweater ANd it will be STANDARD and in DIFFERENT COLORS!!!! This is truely like a dream come true. I had been DIEING to get one of these for my Aiden for his new SD17 Body since that sweater is so PERFECT For the preppy pretty boy style Aiden has going on Ohhh I hope it fits the SD17 body just as nicely as it does the SD16 and of course I'll have to get one for Damien Too since it was made for SD16s after all, and he'd just really to have some new clothes LOVIN
~Anthony

 

Wow. I finally looked at all of the clothing and I am in deep trouble!
Not only to I want Cristal, but there are at least three must have outfits! I'm supposed to be saving for the LA Dolpa!

 

Cassiel, you little angel!! Thanks so much for the link!! That helps me out tremendously!

 

:edit: nvrmnd ^^;;

Have fun, there's lots of cute stuff this time around. =^^=~*

 

does anyone know the specific rules on how to enter the lottery for the after event? O,O;; never done this before

 

Thanky you, ria_ria and Cassiel! It's so nice to be able to share with the Japanese fans!

 

Here is a Super useful thread for Dolpa Lottery/AE vergins

Cristal is the Volks girl I've been waiting for. She's just perfect.

 

I believe that Ria_ria made a typo in her excitement. Crystal has SD13 girl body with L bust, Nono Sweet Dreams has SD Girl Suwarikko body.

Is their Japanese strange? I don't really notice! (^^; I guess it's hard for me to understand those sort of nuances at this stage... ^_~ Still, Amakusa's story is difficult no matter what.. because his life was confusing. *laugh*

And thank you, I slept a little! (^^)

Always happy to help. I don't know how many different colours the sweaters comes in but I'm hoping that there's some I like too because my SD17 needs to occasionally cover up when he gets cold, or gets sick of me petting his tummy. ^_~ The sweater specifically says it is "SD16/SD17" size so don't worry, it'll fit SD17 fine. FWIW the pictured colour is apparently 'khaki'. (^^)

Absolutely my pleasure! I hope it helps you get a good deal on her. (^o^)

 

Thanks Cassiel and ria_ria

I like the sweet candy dress set for msd. doesn't help they use my two favorite head molds as models

I also like the cute panda blanket. I'm so very in trouble already

 

*dies* Oh, thanks so much, Cassiel, for the extra links to the new standard cothing collection! I was disappointed to see no clothes for SD16/17 boys this Dolpa, but these basics are even better! That sweater is just what Keigo needs, not to mention the pants (if they'll fit) lol. And those plaid skirts are adorable, I hope they'll come in SD size too. And thank you Ria_Ria for the info!

SO many cute MSD girl clothes this Dolpa, especially the sweet candy sets! But luckily for my wallet, I have no MSD girls.

 

yaaaaaa

I love the SDCute dresses!!!! So sweet!!
I wonder if they would fit MDD?
If so I'm buying both for my Mayu and Konomi (yes yes I'm definitely getting her!)
Ack!

 

Oh I was just checking the Osaka 4 Volks Booth page and the page for Mini DD Konomi Yuzuhara is up!!
That must mean the other characters' pages will be up in the next few days also!!
*dances*
http://www.volks.co.jp/jp/cf/th2/mdd_konomi.html
She's tooooooo cute!!

 

Thank you Cassiel and ria_ria!

I just love the cute candy set dresses, I don't even have a MSD but after seeing this picture, I now know that I need a F-18--she is just too cute

 

Thank you ria_ria and Cassiel

I am so going to be broke after this Dolpa I want at least three outfits and Amakusa.
*Waves goodbye to her money as it packs to go to Volks*

Crystal is so elegent looking, SwD Nono is 100% adorable, and the little Yos are so sweet and sad looking (must the have girl's outfit).

 

Totally mistyping I'm sorry! f+o+; I edited them. Thank you very much

 

LOL, that would be an awesome smiley! I hope you can get that outfit for Jorie! I can't wait to see him in cute bunny ears!

Thanks, Cassiel!!! Awww, that sounds so sweet! I wish I could be there!! I wonder what the special present is going to be. I'd love to have it all translated, but I don't want to give you any trouble.

Oh, Sweet Dream Nono.... will I ever hold you in my arms?

 

I thought they'd include the whole Nono family too!

I hope once the US dolpas get bigger, maybe they'll do something like that over here! Maybe a 4 Sister's party, that would rock!

I know my teeth are gonna rot out of my head when I see him in it, I swear XD

 

Wow, here we go again with another Dolpa!!!

Geri

 

Omeeee

Those new outfits for MSD and SD are dangerously cute... not sure if I can put out the money for them though... but I definitely want that new wig that Kurumi is modeling T_T!!

 

The more I look at the pictures, the more I love Cristal...I like her smokey makeup.

 

This is seriously bad I really like Amakusa, SwD Nono, and Crystal. I have enough to enter for one, so I will have to decide who's my favorite. Outfits- I love a ton of them. This Dolpa will leave me broke.

Edit: I'm definately going to try for Amakusa However, those who get Crystal and SwD Nono must spam like crazy!

 

When is the English site going to be up? Or is it? I want to go, but need to know if the books/enterance tickets are still available! Anyone know anything?

 

The tickets (well, book-tickets) were still available as of a few moments ago, but only through the Japanese site - though one of my students has told me that she was able to arrange for one by simply being very polite in an email to the Info@ email address (in English).

Darren.

*Prays for the Rozen Maiden SDs to be available there*

 

Volks USA blog has been updated with the items, prices, and application times.

http://site.volksusa.com/blog/2007/07/29/home-town-dolpa-osaka-4-limited-items/

 

I am still in trouble XD Not very new pictures but I'm still going for both Nono and Cristal!

 

I want the MDD! >//////////<

Will Volks sell her on the USA VOLKS site?

 

Looking at the photos of Cristal, she looks a little too mature for a character I have in mind. I prefer a more round face and nose. But I do agree with others in saying that she could make a charming, seductive young man. I'm still going to try to get her, since I know I want her wig, clothes, body, and I'll see how much I like the headmold.

And when it comes to Nono, Im falling in love with her overall appearance! That faceup is just so gentle and sweet, but I dont want too many dolls in my life. So if anyone wants to split her, then I really want her outfit and shoes.

 

If somebody go there, please try to find the shop number 120 Irisumire, it's my one, ^^

First experience there, i hope to enjoy, but the post is troublesome, i didn't get any parcels , i will sell nothing, T_______T

 

Thank you! I have sent them a message and hope to get a good answer!

 

Megu-chan, don't worry! You still have two weeks to go; you will get your parcels for sure!

Is there any clue about the identity of the one-off models?

Also is it possible to buy the ticket-book from overseas, even if we can't actually go to the dolpa? It'd be great to get one of these books! I suppose Volks doesn't check who comes or not, if I do like Nautilus said?

 

What about the ticket book??
It's only a catalogue of all shops, hum maybe i missed something, must check my old one, ^^

Why you need one? you can get it on shop.
Me i will get 2, if you need something inside or the book after dollpa i can give you, ^^

Kirane, please play for me, T_____T and for you too, XD

 

It's just to have one ^^ I know it's just advertisements but I wouldn't mind at all having a book with pretty pictures inside XD It's really just for collection. Wow, if you don't need it after the dolpa, I'd love to have your extra book

(oh yes, I so play for both of us ToT Rhaaaa, money, appear!!)

 

I repeat but they are not pics on the ticket-book, all pics are one the Volks news, but i have 2, so i can give you one.
With the dolls, ok pray too much, please, ^^

 

Yikes? When I did the conversion from the Voklks event I came up with 765$ USD for SD13B Amakusa Shiro Tokisada and Volks USA is asking 986$ USD for him... errr yikes?

 

That's it! I mixed the two. I was thinking of Volks News ^^;
