Volks Mini Super Dollfie discussion Part 2

Juliet and George are fabulous!

Here is my boy, Jack.

 

YAY! New thread! Sorry this family picture is now brand spanking new, but I'll try to take a new one when the school year ends!

 

Minerva: I really like Nocturne's jewelry

Aree: I LOVE that wig!

Guls:

I put Jack and Akira on mini bodies
(pretend you don't notice Akira's terrible resin match)

 

Adding my 3 Enns, so Merangel's George won't be lonely --


L. to r., Owen, Ellis and Rune -- Owen and Ellis are brothers. Merangel's George used to live with us, under the name Lars; maybe that's why he was so eager to move to her home, LOL!

 

(big wink) Lars is his middle name now! LOVE your guys!

 

Yay, another original Enn! Einstein looks so dashing.

Owen is a 1st edition, but I don't think his face-up is original. Ellis' face-up I commissioned from Jung Hahn; Rune's I don't know, but I wonder if his eyes were opened a little more...

 

Beamlette: that is a lot of Enns

Ginarolo: yours looks so happy on his horse

Minerva: I love the monkey ears! I don't think I've ever actually seen them on a doll.

Mi-Chan and Ren got new wigs!

 

Sato, or Tenshi-no-Sato, is the Volks museum/shop located in Sato in Japan. It has the first selection of everything the company offers most of the time , and all FCS starts there until it is released seasonally to the other stores. Sato-only sculpts are only available by visiting this location directly and ordering them in person, or paying someone else to do it. It is generally viewed as the ultimate doll-destination, this is a link to their site where they have a few pictures ( you can certainly find more by searching online elsewhere!):

Sato only refers to sculpts and FCS options that are only available when you place your order at Tenshi no Sato in Kyoto, which is the Volks flagship store.

Wow, that F35 sculpt is really calling my name, it has a sort of Tohya/Kohya vibe to it and Tohya has always been one of my fave Volks sculpts. F37 is also really cute, getting a bit of an Ushiwakamaru vibe from that one in the eyes and face shape.

Pandakeks - Sakura is a great sculpt and they can look super mischievous. This is my Sakura, Jinny.



I finally mailed out my Nagisa to get repainted and I am eagerly awaiting pictures of her new look.

 

Well, considering I thought Volks would go down with the "We will never do online FCS" ship, who knows? Maybe they will eventually add it to the international site, though they are pretty slow about change so I wouldn't expect it any time soon.

Thanks! Jinny's eyes are....well ok, they were ordered as GE-28 Zoukeimura eyes with an FCS order, but were part of the mislabeling fiasco of the first order of the new Sato only Zoukeimura eyes, so I think the colour they actually are are GE-29 eyes.

 

I'm still really impressed with how versatile the MSDs are. I really like how your Sakura's eyes look, they give her a certain vogue appearance. It's nice!

Holla' for Nagisas! I didn't think I'd fall for Volks this hard; yet, here I am.





Lillian's "borrowing" one of my other MSD's shoes. I'm sure he won't mind.

 

Thanks Artemos for the explanation.

Nagisa is so cute ^v^

 

Muwahahaha, yes, Faerie_Speak, the dangerous Volks allure. She looks adorable in that casual outfit!

I love seeing pictures of events, especially far away ones.

And thank you all very much; I'm having oodles of fun with her.

 

Oh my gosh oh my gosh!
I can't believe I found a MSD Midori on Yahoo Japan for 25000 Yen >w<///
I told a Doll Shop with Yahoo Japan services to buy it for me, and it's now bought and it's mine!

The previous owner said that the head plate was missing though, but I doubt it's a fake/ re-cast.
(At least I hope??)
Is it just me, or does it seem like the head plates fall off easily?
I've never owned a Volks MSD before, so I don't know.

I hope it's only cheap because she said some colour from the wig got transferred onto the head.
(Or is it not cheap?)

 

Congratulations Lavandula I think you got a nice deal! And I have read really often that headplates are missing/have fallen off, but I'm new to Volks dolls myself though ^_^"

My MSD kit Sakura arrived today. I love her face! But what dissapointed me, was that her head does not match her body in color at all! I got her directly from Volks but it seems that her Body had yellowed quite heavy but her head seems not I also did not get a stringing guide nor a membership card...

 

Aw, the Peter Pan is so cute! His costume is so lovely and detailed

Thank you ginarolo, I was able to put her together

I didn't know about not getting the membership card from the inernational website, thats a pity... well, if only my (supposed to be new) Body was not yellowed I wouldn't be that sad. I took pictures and wrote to Volks... I hope the color difference will show up properly

 

Pandakeks, I am so sorry. Definitely contact Volks about it.

I got my shipping notice for my F-20 girl that I ordered on March 15th.
I can't wait to get her!

 

If it is come from Yahoo japan, I think it is not a recast so I think you don't have to worry about it

 

Wow congrats on all the new MSD arrivals! I'm glad to see these guys getting some of their popularity back!

I haven't been here in so long!
I'm preparing to move before the new school year starts so I can't keep my dolls out of their boxes. I miss them a lot.
Here is one of my favorite boys, Kairi (Schulze)...so much love!

 

I got a request for a body comparison shot for souldoll N.Line boys and VOlks SDC/MSD boys. It turned out I had a massive comparison shot I did a few months back! It had the souldoll, SDC boy and MSD boy, as well as volks girls and angel region boys (can share clothes with MSD boys).

From my experience, Volks boys (like Rock) can share clothes with angel region boys and LUTS boys. They will NOT fit souldoll clothes very well. The SD boys have very long legs and narrower hips. SDC boys (like Hansel) might be able to share shirts if they are not super fitted to the SD body, but the pants will be too long and way too tight at the hips.

I don't have some of these dolls anymore so I'm glad I did such a massive shot.

 

well doesn't that always happen though? I like MANY of the MSD heads (but I also think that's because there are so many more MSD sculpts out than SDC sculpts (I like most of the SDC sculpts too).


*Also, the souldoll body is the N.Line body!*

 

Kei!!

Yes, the lighting was just TERRIBLE today. But photos were a must.

Mayu, my sunlight F-20

 

Well, sorry to spam.
But the one off I was waiting for arrived today.

Michele (Midi Liz), Alice (Midi Chloe), Jack (Midi Cecile)
Katsu (F-09), Mayu (F-20), MiChan(F-21)

 

No please spam away, this thread needs more action (we really need to combine with the midi I think like the other thread does)! Your family is so adorable, and it makes me jealous that I have so many MSD size, but no actual MSD >,<;;;! You obviously had your head in the right place collection wise, though I love my menagerie of Little Gems, I need more Volks in my life…I think I love Katsu and Mayu the most, they both look so gentle and totally adorable.

I am still perpetually holding my breath for the online FCS, knowing it will probably pop up at any moment now...

Also guls207, &#8203;I am totally now, and forever will be in love any Schulze, and your boy is no exception. Sheer genius comes in the idea to shrink that sculpt family…now Volks just needs to release it more often or put it in FCS!

 

My Midori arrived today.
But her wig hasn't arrived yet :p

Will post her pics once she has a wig.

Re CathyM
F-20 is such a nice sculpt!!
So as Chloe

 

Artemos, I didn't have a Volks mini for a looooong time. But I have recently turned to the smaller sizes again.
So my Yos have multiplied, and so have the minis. And only 1 big Volks in the horde at the moment.

You never know where your collection will go in the future.

One last bit of spam, and I will quit for a while.
Jack and Alice look really pretty (and moody) together.

 

Hi everyone, I'm not sure if I should post this guy here or in the Midi thread since he is an Msd head on a midi body but, my one-off Hewitt just arrived. His name is Alexander.

 

Hi people, this is my Midori.
Her wigs and clothes takes ages to arrive so I photoed her without.

The colour of her cap is a bit funny though. Is it stained or what?
She has some dirt on her thighs as well. I'm slightly unhappy with the doll's condition.

 

Oh, her wig and clothes finally arrived
I still don't know her name yet.

I also changed her face up a bit. I hope her eyes are going to arrive soon.

 

I just thought I would share ^0^
Last year I was in Japan and I managed to order my second FCS.
There was a huge problem, since I was staying only for 1,5months and the shipping would be to my friend, but after long time, they agreed to let me have my last FCS...
F-18 by kalcia, on Flickr
It's F18 in tan ^^

 

lavandula, it's done by 3rd_strike ^^ she has magical hands! xD

 

NY_Kitty: I love that Hewitt! His faceup is fabulous.

lavandula: Congratulation on your Midori.

^kalcia^: Wow. Your F-18 is so beautiful.

And, a few of my pretties...
Alice, Ren, and MiChan.

 

MiChan is an F-21. She is one of my favorites.

 

Alice, my one off Chloe. I did this shot for my FB cover photo.

Not bad for a cell phone image.

Hi,
Since Volks still did not come back to me with a resolution for my yellowed body, I decided to keep my Sakura as she is now and did a faceup on her lovely head! I love her so much! All she needs now are her proper eyes!

 

She's really cute with that faceup~! &#9829;

 

I like this kind of face up as well!

Volks dolls are so versatile. Each doll usually have multiple types of faceup that look nice.

 

have you guys seen new SDC in the newest Volks News?
they both are adorable and cute! and the only thing that stops me from trying to get my hands on them is the fact I don't liek SDC bodies ^^;;;

Pandakeks, ahh, sweet girl 33

 

No? Can you give us a link?

 

The new SDCs are both really cute. I feel like Volks has really been producing some lovely girl sculpts as of late, and it feels like they're finally showing renewed interest in the smaller size.



I finally got my Nagisa back from the faceup artist, and she turned out so cute!

 

Anyone know around when F-35 and up will actually be available for order? I've decided to make my
triple Volks order this year sometime, and I want to add F-35 as my third sculpt in this little boy band. Any info would be much appreciated!

Edit: Nevermind, my proxy just told me he is available, and she will be placing my order this month probably! So excited, I'll actually have boys to share here!

Also, Kim, I've been wondering where you were! I'm not a fan of Nagisa really, but your girl is so so cute, I love her face up and styling, really spot on!

 

My cutest bunch of F-12 went out for a big BIG adventure near the river! Hisu (cat ears) and Ponzu (robot ears) enjoyed their time out in the wild. I really want a third F-12, omg!!

 

n/a

 

Giggy, again, I do not like F-12s, but this thread is full of such great and creative people, your doll styling and scene craft is really wonderful, and it makes me love and want to see more of these two in the future!

I can't wait until my two new MSD FCS boys can join everyone here, hopefully you all can keep me happy and entertained until that time comes in a couple months, keep sharing!
