DDS Sailor Venus

But it’s definitely bizarre that Cecile and Williams were the only ones released as ‘preorder unless there’s too many’ , I’d understand it if they said that for all of them (even though it’s weird to me still) but the fact that it was only them and yet they were the only ones (it seems) where not everyone won makes it odd.

It's always possible that the scalpers went all in for those two. The Sailor Moon dolls don't seem to have risen in price much, so it might have seemed that the SD were more worth their while. I can't really comment on Kizuna AI's likely aftermarket value.

OMG!! I won Venus too!🥳😍

I thought I had lost at first, until I went to empty my spam mail!! 

I'm so happy!! Oh and congrats to everyone else who won her!!🤩

As expected, I was charged for Venus this morning! Time to (impatiently) wait for her to ship lol 

Yep, charged today. I'm going to die when she arrives~

Still no charge on my account. Please, take my money already. XD

No charges yet here either, so you’re not alone @BeyondTime. 

I just got charged this morning too. Now the wait begins.

I just got charged this morning as well. 

Mine showed up as well, and from the date it was charged a few days ago; that’s quite a relief. I always worry about security declines with foreign transactions, and I don’t want Volks to cancel the order because of a blocked transaction. 

Yay!  My charge showed up as well.  What a relief! 

I sadly lost her lottery so I’m hoping there’s a restock soon

You might want to follow @volks_dd on twitter. If the webstore does stock Venus and Kizuna AI, they may announce it through that account or through @volks_doll.

Doesn’t seem like the After Event will have her.  I would keep a close eye out for their winter/holiday event they often hold some back for that.

 

Venus is popping up! I can't wait to see her in other outfits and wigs (though she will remain Mina-chan on my end).

I see I'm not the only one who thought to buy their Venus an Artemis plushie; I'd get a Luna plushie too, but I worry she'd bully him.

I didn't get the impression that there would be a web after event for her, what I think might happen is that if there are leftovers from the store events they may get sold online like with Jupiter and Sakura. No guarantees this will happen, and if it does happen there may be little notice.

I need to do this stat! But I'm really wanting to save up and get her a Sailor V outfit.

I lost on the lottery too. Volks had a twitter post saying there were some remaining after the after event and to ask the staff if it's sold out at that particular store. I asked my proxy to check and Volks clarified that they still had limited stock among the stores. They would just be transporting from other stores if there were any left at the time when a customer enquired. But it seemed like many people had already lined up at their respective stores and there wasn't any point in trying :c 

It's a long shot but hopefully Volks will make a few more to sell online.

They almost certainly won’t make more just for an online sale. If they really intend to let the stores sell out, then it's probably time to start searching Yahoo! Japan. Last I checked, which was a week ago, she was about ¥85,000.

She may come down a bit when the lottery dolls start shipping, which should start anytime between now and the 30th, but may take a week or two to complete. 

Her new swimsuit should be here on Monday.

Ohhh, that's cute!! I can't make any more doll purchases for the year, but I really want to buy Minako some new clothes. One day, one day!

Overall, clothing from coolcats has proven to be decent, but some of the materials on the swimsuits are a bit sheer. 

This was the only swimsuit I’ve seen that’s in yellow. I think I would have liked orange more, but this one has a nice pattern. 

Venus is really pretty.. 😊😊can't  wait to see more owner pictures. My friend actually is getting her, too. She used a jdd proxy service, but during this pandemic, they can't ship dolls and stuffs to USA via regulat ems. She ended up paying $300 DHL shipping.  😔😔
