mistyaera Posted October 5, 2012 Well, I figured my first post on the forum should be an introduction. I get called "Misty" a lot due to my username, so if you want to call me that instead of writing the whole thing out, I don't mind! I started out collecting resin dolls back in 2011, and I'm starting to finally explore the vinyl side. I've always held a deep interest in Dollfie Dreams and took every opportunity to play with them at meet-ups with permission of their owners. I was always told I could handle them more firmly because apparently I treat them more daintily that I treat resin (but I've been terrified of staining). I don't have a DD yet, but I'm in the process of trying to get my first one: a Volks DD Rise Kujikawa. I'm actually moving to Japan next year for school and I decided I'd love to take a DD with me rather than a resin doll, so I'm going to try to get her while I still have the means. I'm super nervous and excited about this. I would love to finally start "collecting" DDs, because I really don't think Rise would be my last. ^^; Anyways, I joined this forum to learn more about them and get more involved in the community! It's nice to meet you all! Nothing here ~ Left the Hobby Previously Loved: Rise, Mariko, Yuki M., Haruka N., Aoko, Rin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Talolili Posted October 6, 2012 Welcome, Misty! Rise is a very pretty Dollfie Dream and I like her more realistic look. It's also interesting that you're going to Japan, that's awesome. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bellatrix Posted October 7, 2012 Great to hear that you got Rise! I have her as well, renamed Rita, and she's super cute! Be aware of not falling in the DD black hole, you won't be safe from wishing for other dollies ahah How old are you, if you don't mind me asking?? And welcome, since I forgot to say earlier xD ✩ 𝓥𝓲𝓬𝓽𝓲𝓶 𝓸𝓯 𝓽𝓱𝓮 𝓑𝓮𝓵𝓵𝓪𝓭𝓸𝔁 ✩ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've already been trying to scrape together some funds for Momo's release (provided I like her). I'm 22. :3 I almost said 21, but I turned 22 back in June! And thank you!

But I'll decide if getting her basing only on her face sculpt. I'm personally super tempted by her and Aozaki Aoko. Kos Mos must me cool, too! Aw, 22! I'm near to 20. OMG. I'm so OLD. ✩ 𝓥𝓲𝓬𝓽𝓲𝓶 𝓸𝓯 𝓽𝓱𝓮 𝓑𝓮𝓵𝓵𝓪𝓭𝓸𝔁 ✩ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't cry! And yes! I'm super excited for them! I even had a dream about their release, ahaha. xD katnaper said: Hi and welcome to the forum. Japan, wow. DD heaven. I'm so envious. Aha!

I have restyled her, actually, today because her wig and "proper" body came in (I got her a DDdy ^^;; I'm still waiting on eyes/clothes/and peachpai). truly outrageous! by ღ mistyaera, on Flickr This is my Rise. ^^ I'll be posting a box opening for her as soon as I finish getting ALL of her items in, but...
