Volks "Yume no Grand Prince Hotel Kyoto 2010" Owners Event

Sep 15, 2009

    1. I love all the outfits for this event. The Mad Hatter and the white card-like version of the White Rabbit are my favourites. I think better pictures of the White Rabbit will decide if I like him or not. ^^' Alice is super cute though!
       
    2. PurgatoriX Thank you a million for the pictures

      I LOVE ALL of the outfits. They are so cute.
       
    3. Oh, that Alice is just darling! I love her dress and wig, too! Awww! :)
       
    4. I was hoping that I could be strong about this event, even though I have a serious Alice addiction, but PurgatoriX, your pictures pretty much sealed it for me! I love the little Yos and especially their wigs and outfits!

      I'm confused though -- is the entire Wonderland collection only going to be available at the Grand Prince Hotel event and then there are going to be different limited dolls for the Hometown Dolpa?
       
    5. I want the YO's they are so adorable. *off to pout about it*
       
    6. Hi everyone!

      I hope you'll permit this Volks virgin to ask a few daft questions :P I've never looked at Volks before but I really love the Alice's Turn the Key set: please can you tell me if these outfits will ever be available online? I love them but am unlikely to be in Japan anytime soon!
       
    7. Awww!!! :chibi Little Alice is sooo cute!!! :D She looks like a cross between Yuu and the YoSD Four Sisters!! :aheartbea Don't you just want to cuddle her and pinch her cheeks? :whee: Her dress is darling too!! :love It's too bad that I won't be able to go to the event. :( But if it's meant to be, I'll be able to cuddle Little Alice someday! :chibi Super Dollfie dreams come true!!! :thumbup
       
    8. Hi Gantaeno! :)

      These outfits will only be available to those who attend the event in Kyoto. It is very likely that afterwards several of the outfit sets will be sold by the attendees. A few will likely appear here in the DoA Marketplace, so don't lose hope just yet! :aheartbea
       
    9. Seems like all the dolls but the SD girl have mostly been identified, any idea who the pink cat outfit girl is?

      Adding that I want to see more pictures of the Yos, wont need the outfits but I may want one of the dolls. :)
       
    10. I'm with you on that one :D
      Volks outfits are a nice thing to have but I always find myself enjoying the doll more than the outfits.:doh
      ~Pandora~
       
    11. The Chesire cat girl looks like Elena to me.
       
    12. OMG! Volks has read my mind! If you look at my signature, my Cristal's nickname is the Queen of Hearts, and she's on a 16 body. I must have that outfit :D
       
    13. She's either Elena or SDC Rene- I'm thinking it's Rene since she was a cat design but it's hard to tell.
       
    14. But isnt the outfit for SD girls? That would make it Elena...
       
    15. Renee is mini sized, this is an SD outfit, and it's definitely an Elena, now that I have looked at the bigger scans. Hard to miss her duck lips.
       
    16. Wow everything is amazing!! What a great, cohesively designed release! It's a shame (for us who are not able to attend the event) that all the dolls and outfits are limited to those who can be there in person. But! I hope Volks gets such positive feedback that they are compelled to release in the future similarly detailed and gorgeous collections for a more expanded audience ;)
       
    17. I Love Alice and all the outfits are just gorgeous.

      I don't know if I will go, I just want one Alice , the hotel is just too expensive and I don't want to go alone.
      So I have to ask to my husband who is VIP member too, to come with me, but He will never accept, too expensive, lol

      So I think I will try the Alice's outfit on Yahoo after, T_______T
       
    18. I have a scanner and got a book today, so I share these pictures...

    19. The Alice is adorable and the outfits are fabulous. I enjoy seeing Volks products very much but I find the events and the rules and the entire process tiring. I'm tired of the you must do this and that just so you can buy the doll. Why should I have to spend money on a hotel to get a doll? Why should I have to spend a day in line so I can buy a limited? I mean, the company either wants my money or it doesn't. But, there seem to be enough crazies and scalpers out there to keep the company in business. Yes, they are a great company with wonderful dolls. But, I think collecting these dolls should be fun and I don't think Volks events where people are stressed about buying this or that is much fun. Maybe I'm getting old but I much prefer going to the shop and buying what I want when I want or order periods where I can choose to buy or not to buy without the added stress.

      Sorry everyone but as much as I love my FCS girls I don't think I want to buy into all the hype about the limiteds or these events. I'm a Volks member And love to visit Sato or go to their shops but I think these events are a bit too rich for my blood. I want to spend my money on dolls and clothes - not hotel fees.

      That said, I wish those who do go all the best and hope you have a blast. :)
       
    20. Ah Volks you're killing me!!! I love it all :D
       
    21. Does anyone know what doll is wearing the Pink Cat outfit, she is beautiful :aheartbea I hope they release the wig she is wearing too!!

      [​IMG]
       
    22. She's Elena (FCS F-42) :D I love her face very much, too!
       
    23. Oh my gosh! She looks so different!
       
    24. Elena is a very good mold. I've seen various Elena that has a wonderful makeup :D She's on my wishlist.
       
    25. Thank you sooo much Ria_Ria for posting these pics! Have you scanned any others? I would love to see the SD16 Queen in greater detail...
       
    26. oh good i don't like alice as much close up, she is still very cute though! this theme is wonderful
       
    27. Meh too :( How disappointing...
      I do like Elena :D
      She's on my wishlist too :o
      I hope she's available... *starts saving her pennies again*
      ~Pandora~
       
    28. You are welcome. ^_^ It's fun<3
      I posted many pictures here.
       
    29. Is it just me, or does the White Rabbit have a different hand than what we normally see on Yo-SDs? I don't recall seeing one that curls a little bit like that, but I don't own any Yo-SD option hands.

      The White Rabbit looks like a mini Toki :D.
       
    30. Yeah, the White Rabbit looks like a mini Toki! And he reminds me of Yugiri, too. Regarding hands, I cannot judge...it seems normal hands...?
       
    31. I'm loving the pictures!
      I love that volks does these events for us, It's always exciting to see what they plan for their fans:)

      I hope that the pink yosd dress comes with the shoes and socks.
       
    32. Thanks for sharing the photos Ria. Was trying to place who the white rabbit reminded me of. I like the eyeshape
       
    33. I hope can go to this event, i want only Alice for me... i will try to find some one to go with me and divide the hôtel (25 000 yens by bed in the double room)...
       
    34. If I had the money I'd totally go with you >.< Geh it's heart breaking not being able to go... I've decided I want the White Rabbit Yo-SD... And little Alice is growing on me the more I see her!
      ~Pandora~
       
    35. I absolutely LOVE Alice in Wonderland!!! I am super excited the Volks decided to builld an event around this theme. The costumes are stunning but I wish they had done a Yo-SD door Mouse costume! How cute would that has been? I also wish they would have come out with an Alice costume for Yo-Sd, MSD, SD Cute, SD13, and SD16 to represent Alice as she got larger and then smaller in the story! A beautiful flower costume would have been great in SD16G size! So many great opportunities!!! I love what they have already done but I think they could have really done much more!!!
       
    36. I am so safe from this event. I appreciate the beauty of all the items, but none really fits my family. Good luck to you all. ~Gus
       
    37. It is really expansive for a Yosd :'( !!!!!!! the best way is divide all fees by 2 ! i want just Alice :aheartbea, she is so cute) !!!
       
    38. Geh if I manage to get to Japan in march I'll send you a PM :sweat
      And yes, it's an Expensive Yo-SD... over $500 >.< I wonder if you have to buy the outfit separately... :(
      ~Pandora~
       
    39. I'm guessing the YoSD's come with their outfits based on their prices. Would this be a correct assumption?

      The bigger pictures make me really like the White Rabbit. >3< Especially the 3/4 shot. I'd so love it if all the dolls modeling the clothes were released as limiteds too.
       
    40. I'm with you on this one... Me wants Williams and Elena! :...(

      I think the other two YO outfits are optional :)
      ~Pandora~
       
    41. Thank you so much to everyone who posted pics! I love everything about this event! Gorgeous photos, and I so want Little Alice!!
       
    42. ahahahahah I wanna gooo I wanna goooo!!!!
      but what is this dreams fcs you ve been talking about? sorry I can't understand!!
      and do you have to book before november 16th to attend at the event??
      alice really is my thing ^^; I ve gone crazy after seeing the pics XD!!!!
      thank you neverything for the treating infos!!
       
    43. Isn't that always a relief, lol :)
       
    44. I noticed that, too! I wonder if those hands will be for sale on the limited hand order form that will come with the Yos.
       
    45. Actually, looking closer at the description for the YoSDs, it does say they come with "SD option parts"! I thought that was just gonna be the order form for extra YoSD hands, but perhaps it means these new hands? :D

      The Dream FCS is just how it sounds - for about $5000 you can have whatever mold on whatever body you want, in whatever skintone you want, painted by whichever artist you want! They only offer about 3 so everyone who applies will not get one.

      And yes, booking must be done that early - payment however doesn't come till January ^_^

      Anyone else think it funny that Volks chose to make Little Alice in whiteskin while the White Rabbit is in normal?:lol:
       
    46. Hi PurgatoriX, I thought it was funny, too. (White Alice and Normal colour White Rabbit) Btw, they come with "the order form for option parts". ^_~
       
    47. Ah yes, I missed that last bit of kanji:sweat Doesn't help that it's printed so tiny, lol!
       
    48. 5000 usd *_**_**_* ! i prefer reduce this crazy price of this hôtel, i want find someone for the double room :...(
       
    49. I found some blog which had an article about dream FCS.
      From it...&#8595;

      - The past dream FCS dolls -
      Beauty White Yo-SD Yuki
      Beauty White SD16 Girl Sakaki by saifa
      Beauty White SD Girl Shinku by Valico
      Beauty White Seirei-Yugiri-body Anais by aone
      Beauty White SD13 Girl Madoka by Ciera
      Beauty White SD16 Girl Madoka
      Beauty White Yo-SD Neon by Valico
      Beauty White SD17 Boy Williams by K.mayura

      *Sanding, UV cut coating, Body-blushing are included
      *Omukae Ceremony at Sato is included (Sei-Tenshi or Rei-Tenshi and the lunch with Volks artist are included in it)
      *Yo-SD 250,000yen, SD/SD13 480,000yen, SD17 550,000yen
       
    50. So wait, they do offer YoSD dream FCS? I had heard they only did MSD and up. That definitely does make it more interesting.
       
    51. Yes. All I had read were saying same thing. They offer YoSD dream FCS.
       
    52. Little Alice has white skin? :? Oh, oh, oh, I really want her now!!! :D It is funny that Little Alice has white skin and the White Rabbit has normal skin. :lol: It is like when they released Iris (Snow White) with normal skin, and Johanna (the Evil Queen) with white skin! I like the way Volks changes traditional stories to make them more interesting. :)

      It would be so wonderful to do Dream FCS!!! :chibi I doubt I will ever have the money for it, but I can hope and dream!! :thumbup If I could order Dream FCS, I would get one of the following:

      White Skin YoSD Nono
      White Skin YoSD Nana Sweet Dream
      White Skin MSD Elsie
      White Skin MSD Nagisa
      White Skin MSD Yui Sweet Dream
      White Skin SD Nono Sweet Dream
      White Skin SD Mimi Sweet Dream
      White Skin SD Ria
      White Skin SD Nana Sweet Dream
      White Skin SD Ran
      White Skin Yo-Tenshi Hinata (on a YoSD Girl body)

      And they would all be painted by Ciera, Rumina, or Valico!! :aheartbea

      Thank you for all of the wonderful pictures and information, ria_ria!!! :D You are the best!! :cheer
       
    53. I wish they had photos of the past dream FCSs. The sound so cool. I do like the Alice theme, I think the F14 would make a darling alice :3
       
    54. Thank you for the info ria_ria!
      I thought it was only MSD and up as well...
      Its odd how the white rabbit doesn't have BW skin.
      Shelly~I wish that there were pictures of these dream FCSs too. I'd love to see a Beauty White Neon (so cute!)~
      Cammy~ Oh my god if only I had that sort of money >__<, A beauty white Ran and BW SwD Mimi would be gorgeous! A BW SD Ria would also be so amazing.


      If only I had that much money...I'd get a Beauty White Luna, a Beauty White Michele, BW SwD Nana and BW SwD Luna (come Volks, release a SwD Luna!)--okay sorry I'm getting off topic here >__<
       
    55. I'm still sad I can't go. It's such an awkward time of year for me and I hate it... ;_;

      Dream FCS chance sounds so exciting... I think I would have to get a BW SD10 jointed/swarriko body Madoka. I'm sad that 2 people on earth have a BW Madoka and there are no pictures - it seems unfair. xD
       
    56. Thanks for the very nice infos!!!!
      so you can possibly choose every artist and every combination???
      even if is so full included this price is too much over me ^^
      I hope to see pictures of the lucky owner of this dream Fcs ^^!!!
      speaking of yo sd...I have noticed on the pics Ria_ria was sending the one of the 2 alice on the background..but in your opinion are the same headmold??
      seems to me they are little different !!
      what do you think??
      *_*






       
    57. It will be really really nice if anyone could find some link to see this dreams fcs are like!! I mean pictures pictures ^O^!!
      I am interested in yo sd dream!!
      or we can start a new thread: what your dream Fcs would that be??
      thank you for pics and infos!!!!!:aheartbea



       
    58. I think they're the same - that was the picture shown during the Kobe Cruise event as a sample of what to expect. It's the same head mold in 2 slightly different colored versions of the same dress. I think they added it to enhance the dreamlike quality of the photo shoot :)

       
    59. Well, I'm not interested in any of the goods from this event, but it is fun to see what Volks is releasing. :) I'd like a better look at the new Yo hands, though, and I definitely see a resemblance in the White Rabbit's eye shape to Yugiri. X3

      As for dream FCS, I'd like to see photos of what people got out of it, but if I ever had the chance, I'd want nothing to do with that Beauty White nonsense. :XD: Give me a sunlight skin SD17 boy, or a sunlight Yo! Oh man, that would be SO awesome. :love
       
    60. More Ebony skin for me, please :XD: I keep hoping it'll be an FCS option some day...
