Was a little surprised to see that new im@s Nanao doll available)

 

They announced a special sale for her at Anime NYC a month or so ago.


The difference between Dollfie Dreams and Heroin? Heroin is illegal, Dollfie Dreams probably should be.

I'll just be waiting till the last minute to make up my mind. XD

 

Same, though for different reasons. If I order 2B that'll be it for 2019 and dolls, but I just am not sure if I should order her or try to pick up a dropped pre-order later.

I think I'm using "waiting to see how much my paycheck is" as a reason to stall. I'm tentatively thinking if it's enough to cover her without touching my savings I'll go for it since my other job provides enough to live off, but we'll see in a couple days.

 

But then I remember I'm going to Hawaii in January and that money could be really useful for a few dives, but I make enough that won't matter, but I have a wedding to pay for, but I'll make the money up again quickly, but I'll have to pay taxes this year ugh... so torn.

Keep in mind that for US customers Dec 2nd in Japan will be Dec 1st here.

 

Not sure what time of the day Volks is closing the orders here or in Japan, but I'd suggesting getting orders in before December 2nd to be safe.

Good reminder!

 

I set a November 30 deadline for myself to be safe, otherwise I know I'd miss it by a week at least

Put in a pre-order for 2B first this weekend, then waited a bit and what do you know, 9S followed shortly thereafter. Aside from maybe an MDD from Dollpoint next year, I think that's it for 2019 dolls. It'll be he longest I'll wait for dolls but I see so much potential in them outside their characters as well. Can't wait to dress them casually.

Just wanted to warn for anyone who is still new to this buying system. I know we've already figured it out, but just to confirm.

 

I paid through credit card on Volks Int. The money left my account and then days later, came back. The transaction did not post for WEEKS and randomly did, totally decimated my bank account and caused me to overdraft on the -one- day I was near the end of my pay cycle. Normally I'm very careful with my money, but there's a few job changes and a few orders like this that have threw me out of whack.

 

So um, be careful. I'm with WF and used checking account/debit.


Waiting for eternity for Volks to release more Idolm@ster girls.

I finally went ahead and ordered 9S since it was getting dangerously close to the end date.

2B will have to be shelled into another doll. Unfortunately, I wasn't as happy with this version of her.

After weighing out all my options I went ahead and put in my order for 2B through Volks USA. Originally I was going to just put a down payment on 2B like I did with Anastasia and save throughout the year. Thankfully I happened to come into some extra cash, so I decided to make my life easy and just paid the whole amount. Even though I'll be one of the last ones to receive my 2B I'm totally okay with that because that means any problems with the dolls should be fixed by then. Like when I got my Saber Nero in the last Volks USA batch; She had the updated internal frame as the original frames in the first batch of Saber Neros were breaking left and right~

 

Now to sit back and wait for the year to pass Which is fine since I have plenty of other lovely vinyl ladies to keep me company till then

I had to pass on 2B in the end, although I wrestled with it the whole time. I can’t even afford her down payment right now if I want to get anyone Christmas presents. 9S is fine but next year is going to be too uncertain finance-wise to bring home two dolls at the same time, even with a year to save.

Luckily 9S has the vocaloids if he wants any android company but I still feel guilty for splitting them up.

Glad you were still able to secure 9S! And if we're lucky even after all the pre-orders get filled they will still offer 2B and 9S during other events they attend. That's what I'm hoping for so I can get 9S later down the line~

Hopefully her aftermarket price won't get too crazy, and you can get her later.

Whelp, I caved in and decided to pre-order 2B at the eleventh hour.

 

She is just so gorgeous. I felt like I would regret not having her when the owner pictures start rolling in.

 

Guess it's time for the long wait now!

Phew! I almost didn't make it. I just put a down payment for 9S. I wanted only the body but I didn't see any splits. When I receive the doll I will give the body to Sky and turn 9S into a girl. ^^

Sigh. After being conflicted for just so long I ended up ordering only 9S. The fan in me wanted to keep them together as a set/pair/OTP but the doll collector in me won by the power of sheer nitpickyness. It was undisputed in the end.

 

 

I hope I don't regret it... I'll just 'give' him the 2B figurine to make up for it. Or something. orz

Literally with 8 minutes to spare, I placed my order. . . I debated about them the entire pre-order period, not whether I wanted them or not, but if I was willing to not buy any other dolls during 2019 and focus heavily of saving (for them and a house). I really love 2B and 9S, in game form and doll form so I think it will be worth it.

 

I have also decided that these will be my last DDs unless they make Blood+ dolls (which will never happen, so that's good). I love my DDs, but I also like variety and five dolls from one brand is my cap.

 

Now begins the long wait.

I caved at the last minute too and ordered 9S from Volks USA. He's really beautiful, so I hope he lives up to my expectations and gets to stay.

Mecatronico

Hello,

 

me and my friend were going to order the two dolls, I was going for 2B and her for 9S, we decided to wait for the last minute to preorder so we would be on the last batch, that way we would have more time to get all the funds (collecting in Brazil is HARD, 100% importing fees!).

 

2B is going to be my second Dollfie, I have Miku, and 9s was going to be her first, she was very excited since 9S is one of her favorite characters.

 

But she slept, she was working for a long time and went to rest a little but lost the time and the preorders close, she is very sad now.

 

I dont have much experience with Dollfies, I know that their price goes up a lot in the second hand market, but what are the chances of Volks having left overs after launch to sell on the site for the normal price?

 

I know Miku keep selling for a long time, but I think that was a special case becouse Volks received SO MANY pre orders that were cancelled and had Mikus to spare, but what about more normal Dolls? Do Volks usually have spares or they tend to be sold out?

Mecatronico, I wouldn't worry too much. The cost of pre-ordered dolls doesn't go up very much.

 

In addition, a lot will happen between now and when these dolls finally deliver. If you watch the market place, you'll likely see people who've changed their minds (or had their cirbleepstances change) and want to sell their pre-orders (usually at cost).

 

Right after dolls deliver, too, a lot will be sold on the marketplace.

 

And it's not impossible that Volks will also have some to sell, due to cancellations or whatnot.

Oh my god, now that I'm seeing 9S clearly like this all my plans are falling apart. If I can make him look like he has a smile with a new face up then everything changes but if not, then everything will be as planned...I have 1 year or so and many things can happen...

 

Mecatronico, I'm sorry for what happened to your friend but like Cauldroness said, don't worry. Volks have released Len and Kirito again, I wouldn't rush into buying from the second hand market unless the price is similar to the original. I did the mistake of doing that with Len, I spent a lot of money and soon after Volks was selling him again.

More redundant pictures, me self-promoting how much I played the game, and (what I intended to be) spoiler-free rambling here:

 

http://blog.doll.cafe/2019/01/happy-new-yorha.html

 

While late to playing the game, I did play it recently. I want to ramble on and on about how much I love the game and why. I'd have to get into major spoiler territory to do so, so I'll STFU.

 

Assuming a Dollfie version of A2 doesn't officially get made, I'm going to consider making a custom of her. I'm debating whether to give my A2 custom a DDdy body to match 2B's or use a DD-L body to better match what I see in the game.

yes, yes.... but do you have the start up screen which is all black and has apparently the Virtuous treaty sword in a water effect? (IE: the true sacrifice reward)

 

and only after this I platinum'd mine... sort of makes me wonder how many times I've been killed by corruption as a result within the past year.

I found some more pictures and unmasked face closeups on this flickr account; maybe redundant but I know there are a lack of 9S pictures in general so here goes

 

I appreciate you!! The lack of 9S pictures is a thing. I stand by my hatred of their wigs and seeing Volks patterns with their recently release DDs, I'm not hopeful. This just reminds me that I should think about buying ones elsewhere for when they arrive. Anyway, the brightness in the pictures helps take away that poor lighting in DP. They're just divine.
