ragnamuffin Posted October 16, 2021 (edited) Since I live in Tokyo and have an addiction to Azone, I visit the Labelshops more often than I care to admit. I thought I’d upload a bunch of pics from my last trip to the one in Akihabara in case anyone wanted to see them, so without further ado, here they are!

monkeypizzasonic Posted October 16, 2021 Super cute and makes me very excited to visit them one day! I didn't know they had AP there. Do any of them sell AP parts, or do they just have them for display? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They actually sell fullset APs and a random assortment of Quarantotto clothing/shoes, but not body parts, unfortunately. Edit: They do sell Obitsu parts, though.

ragnamuffin Posted October 16, 2021 2 hours ago, monkeypizzasonic said: Oooooooo, which store has the best selections do you think? Need to plan my trip. I’ve only been to the ones in Akihabara, Ikebukuro and Osaka, but IIRC only Akiba sells the APs. Ikebukuro definitely has AP clothing/shoes for sale, but I don’t think they sell the dolls themselves. In terms of Azone products, the Akiba store is the biggest one I’ve been to so far and they have a lot of stuff that’s not available/sold out on the website (plus they’re in the same building as Dolk, Dollyteria and Volks), but each store is worth visiting because they have slightly different stock available. I was able to pick up some older outfits in Osaka that I thought I would never find in Tokyo. Haven’t been to the Factory in Shonan, but I’ve heard that they have a lot of older stock since it’s so far out that hardly anyone visits. Unfortunately they’re closed weekends and holidays, so it’s a bit of a logistical nightmare to plan a trip there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
monkeypizzasonic Posted October 17, 2021 Is it the same building as Doll Point? I am going to spend so much money there. Help. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think I've seen full AP dolls in Ikebukuro as well - but Akihabara has likely the bigger selection here. The factory shop in Shonan doesn't have any AP stuff iirc, but it's been a while since I last visited. 2 hours ago, monkeypizzasonic said: Is it the same building as Doll Point?

ragnamuffin Posted October 17, 2021 24 minutes ago, Tierparkzone said: It's just one floor below Doll Point And a few floors above AmiAmi, which has a very small selection of Azone dolls/clothes (although since downsizing their doll section a few months ago, it’s not really worth mentioning). For anyone interested, Geestore, which is not in the same building but is really close by, is a much better source for Azone dolls/clothes since they have a decent selection and everything is regularly 10-20% off. 14 minutes ago, AngryPomeranian said: Seriously though, your doll family is so cute! Haha I wish they were mine, but these pics are just from the displays at the Azone store in Akihabara. (Although I did preorder the 7th anniversary versions of Erunoe, Lipu and Vel, so next spring I will have my own small army of Picconeemos… 🤣) 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Listen, everyone needs cute, tiny things in their lives. Therefore, you are obligated to build an army. A really, really big army. If your wallet seems a bit flat, stuff it with feathers/cotton/anything that creates the illusion of having more money. 😄 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My house is literally 8 ft. wide, and 20 ft. long. I live in an RV/Travel trailer. I'm working on an available option from a friend of mine, to upgrade to a Motorhome that's 30+ ft. overall, with storage underneath, that will give me and all my Kiddos more space to move around in.

plasticyears Posted November 17, 2021 Thank you for sharing, I love seeing photos of shop displays like these! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ragnamuffin Posted May 3, 2022 (edited) Another photo dump incoming! The displays haven’t changed too much, but for some reason I didn’t take pictures of the Picco Sahra’s dolls last time, so there’s a few of those with some new dolls from Azone. And of course, the latest Lil’ Fairies on the Picco P body for @battrastard (whose pics have been enabling my Picconeemo obsession lately 😆) The rest are in spoiler tags because they’re huge and there’s lots of them. Picco Sahra’s a la mode Spoiler Azone’s newest series: Colorful Dreamin’ Spoiler Ellen and Alice in Super Whitey Spoiler This version of Ellen, who is normally 50cm, is on the 48 body, and Alice, who is normally 48cm, is on the 45 body.

battrastard Posted May 3, 2022 I guess I deserved that one! I'm definitely reserving Ripu and Romy when they come out in September. OMG, those outfits!! I need more clothing for the ones I have now... Do you know if any of the "Assault Lily" clothes fit the Lil Fairy bodies? (shoes and socks are an obvious "no", I'm guessing) "Madness takes it's toll, Please have exact change!" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(shoes and socks are an obvious "no", I'm guessing) I think it depends, but in general, no. They use the Picco S/M/LL bodies, which are smaller than the D and P bodies. Some articles might work, but you’d have to check the size chart on their website to be sure. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
