Lost Little Girl Found Her Home (Miyu's Arrival)

Hi, I'm back with the dolly news ! There's a new additional family member.. ehhh..?
 = = =(ﾉ･ｪ･)ﾉ Presenting, my second Dollfie Dream doll, Mariko ! Ahaha, they just multiple without my notice

Yes, I won her in recent Volks lottery in August 2015. Mariko was re-released along with DD Kirika (Shining Resonance) & DD Alisa (Alisa Ilyinichna Omela TV Anime Ver.).
 Mariko , on the other hand , is the 3rd Ver. named Summer Festival Ver. after previous Mariko Sensei & Mariko Student.

Mariko cost me around $545 (MYR2,300±) include tax & shipping (company price is 57,000 yen with tax , excluded shipping). I made my payment on 31st August and she arrived to me on 12 September 2015. That quite sometime because in previous shipment , it took 4-5 days for item to arrived once payment has been made.

I wasn't lucky time time in term of custom charge. Thus, additional 6% tax is added in order to collect her. Thanks to my friend too, who helped me over to collect the box because I had plan over weekend and the custom office quite far, it took around 30-45 minutes to drive over there.

I named her Hoshino Miyu 星野美優 (ほしのみゆ) which mean beautiful plain of stars. She is Maya's sister ( my boyfriend's DD).

I'm back with recent random doll haul !

Hello, there.
It's been awhile, I know, I know, I'm sorry. ｡ﾟ･（>﹏<）･ﾟ｡

I had too much things going on (and being procrastinate..), I should have write this post earlier, but finally I've decided it's now and NOW. These stuffs are in my hands like  months ago , took them pictures but I left it dusk in the desktop file.

This time, the haul is from Volks and stuff I get from friend's booth, Macaron Doll in C2AGE 2015.

Check my flickr album below for more pictures of the event :)



Another big news is. . I'm getting another girl!  BUT, I don't complete her yet and give her name. She will be my first custom modding mold by myself. This need to take slowly as it's a delicate process.

For a head start, she is a Volks Mini Dollfie Dream (MDD) body with DDH-01 head (normal skin).

I obtained her body from friend's help when he was on trip to Japan, but the head was sold out. Therefore, 2 months later I got her 2 heads, which one I bought from a friend and another is I bought from Volks when they restocked the heads. I got myself two heads because I have two looks I need to mod, one of the mod is risky since I want her to have open mouth, at least another head is spare if any case fails.

I would definitely share my experience on modding the head when she is ready. Right now, I'm still collecting tools for the modding process.

Let's get back to haul story.

Hello, Miku. Welcome to your temporary home !

Bam! Welcome to the box opening of Dollfie Dream Hatsune Miku, as I promised. Finally can write the blog once I done taking the photos.

After the long time wait, like 1 year LOL , she finally arrived at 26 December 2014.

New Angel Knocks On My Home's Door

This is overwhelming.

You know 'just a doll company thing' when they like to release someone you really, really like whenever you have nothing but sand, in your purse/wallet.

And let me tell you which this time. It's Volks !

Righhhtt, it's AKIRA. She has been in my wishlist for sooo long and I was thinking to get her next year because I pre-ordered Volks Dollfie Dream Hatsune Miku (which coming over this December 2014) and since she was limited release, the way I only get her is from another person, second handed.

But, suddenly Volks happily re-release her with different outfit. Oh Volks ! How could I miss this? Instead getting her in higher price sold by others, it's better get brand new Akira with original price, right?
She's still limited though, available to purchase in lottery system, which mean I need my Luck Angel to get this baby.

The voting period was on 21st - 23rd  July 2014 and she goes with the price of 55,000JPY. I randomly put myself on luck like, "If I won this, means she's coming home sooner with me, or else, we just wait again".

Well, my Luck Angel heard my prayers, that 24th July the miracle showed up in my e-mail. I was literally dance off in my work place and everyone starred at me like I gone maniac. Ｏ(≧▽≦)Ｏ

Thus, on 5th August 2014, she knocks my door.

Review : Volks Kuonji Alice's Penguin Costume

I noticed on this costume from a friend of mine, who wore it on his Dream Dolfie doll at Comic Fiesta 2013.

I can't help but that is the most cutest thing I ever saw! However, I didn't get the chance to hug it) T~T

One fine day, on 6th February 2014, a friend of mine in facebook posted that she buying the penguin costume. I was surprise the costume re-sell again. It's a limited Volks item. Without any hesitation, I went to the website and bought it. I was in tight budget but I feel I can't miss, if not buy now, when it's going to sell again?

Thus I purchased the costume with price 13,936 yen (include tax, fee & delivery). Original price is 11,340 yen (include fee). I paid using Paypal.
Volks delivers their item within 1 week, and I got mine on 18th February 2014.

*knock-knock* Parcel arrived on my office :3 and I'm unboxing at home.
