A few days ago I sent my White Album Dollfie Dream Support Message to Volks USA to show my appreciation and support for their White Album Project.  The staffs at Volks USA really appreciated my message and told me they would forward my message to their team in Japan.  Today, they posted the pictures of my girls in their Sumika Times Blog page!

For those of you who are familiar with my habit, you would probably know that I have fairly strict requirements for knowing the personality and character of a Dollfie Dream before I decide to adopt them, for example, when Volks announced ToHeart 2 Kusugawa Sasara Dollfie Dream, I cast almost everything aside and focused on learning about Sasara.  The situation is fairly similar for the White Album Dollfie Dream, I wasn’t too impressed with the story outline at first and thought it is one of those typical harem anime… but a few punchi blurbers in figure.fm have convinced me to at least give the White Album anime a try because they felt I would like Ogata Rina.  It didn’t take very long for me to completely fall for Rina’s character, she is intriguing, elegant, beautiful, have more balls than all the men combined in the show!  She is most definitely one of the most awesome bishoujo characters I have seen in recent memory.  It is very refreshing to see a character like Rina to rise from the recently saturated market of “moe” characters.  We need more characters like Rina in anime!

Anyway, after about half way into the White Album anime, I have already decided to take Rina home at the first available opportunity.  You might have noticed the White Album Dollfie Dream Support banner in my side bar already   I have been checking the White Album Dollfie Dream page daily as well as the Dollfie Dream blog for any available information, I tracked back to the Yoko/Nia release schedule step by step and determined that we will see something by the end of the year at least and sure enough, Volks has announced more details about 10 days ago in the White Album Dollfie Dream Update that they will be releasing the schedule by the end of the year.

To show our appreciation and support for the White Album design team, my daughters have prepared their very own special message!

Those of you who are familiar with my habit, you would probably know that a new full family daughters group shots are coming soon, that’s right!  I love doing group shots and since I already had 5 of them in a group photo, it just feel wrong not to bring the other girls into the picture!  Building on the Christmas Theme Photo shoot yesterday, I present to you, the latest Dollfie Dream Daughters Glorious Gathering Group Photo~ Also known as DDDGGG.

Some of you with good memory would remember that I have been wanting to do the full family group photo for a long time, but losing out on Natsuki in the Dollfie Dream Gathering had put a huge delay in that plan, but fortunately, Volks USA came thru and beat their own schedule and had Natsuki arrived before Christmas~

I have been planning a Christmas Theme Photo shoot for some time now, I even picked up a few Santa girl outfit from the Volks Store about a month ago, but the filming of the last edition of the Dollfie Dream Theater (a whopping 46 frames story) has pushed the Christmas Theme Shooting out to the very last minute…. and coinciding with the arriving of my 10th Dollfie Dream Daughter just right before Christmas, I have prepared a special treat for you all~ please enjoy~

Natsuki wasn’t suppose to arrive until next year according to Volks USA schedule, I guess they somehow beat their own schedule by a month, not that I am complaining… I would much rather being able to spend Christmas with all 10 daughters instead of 9

After taking a prolonged break from filming the Dollfie Dream Theater, I have finally picked myself up and continue on the story that has been in the planning stage for several months.  It was sort of difficult to get back into the swing of things at first, but I have finally managed to finish this part of the story just right before Christmas.  So, without further ado, let me present to you the latest edition of the Dollfie Dream Theater – The New Scenario (in celebration for Christmas, it’s the extra long edition!)

For those of you who have lost track on where the story was, please visit LightningSabre’s blog for the conclusion of the Dollfie Dream Theater X Melancholy of Saber Lily.

I have let myself gone a tad lazy for the past couple of days, I have been wanting to write an article about PVC figure aging based on suggestions from blogging comrade blowfish, but alas, I am still procrastinating over it because I have been mostly occupied by the news of Dolpa 22 and the new White Album Dollfie Dream releases~

A bunch of us in the flickr group have started to speculate over what Dollfie Dream might be coming out in the winter doll party, the first clue we had came about a little over a week ago when we found out about the White Album webpage that didn’t have any images on it at the time, however, as more information became available, the White Album Dollfie Dream were not due to come out in this upcoming Dolpa but instead a web order exclusive project similar to that of the Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann DD Project.

Initially, I was very hesitant about the story of White Album after reading some online review about it, but my mind began to sway when I was presented with the project image…. these are some really good Dollfie Dream candidates… and at the very minimum, these idol style clothing would fit my Dollfie Dream daughters very well!  After a few more conversation with a few figure.fm members, I decided I have to at learn about Rina and Yuki despite the fact that I may not be very interested in the plot of the story (based on my understanding thus far, the main protagonist is a real prick…. all of the guys were real prick…, why… I want to read about some decent/hotblood guy doing his best, not a real prick getting involved in multiple women!).  Anyway, I have already decided to at least see what kind of girls 森川 由綺 Morikawa Yuki and 緒方 理奈 Ogata Rina are, then so be it.

I originally planned to hold on to this group photo session before the Dollfie Dream Theater storyline has a chance to catch up and introduce the new character as a surprise element, but Volks USA has informed me yesterday that I have just hit the “surprise element” deadline >.>;;;  Anyway, the long and short of it is that I have picked up a 2nd Sasara back in Hometown Nagoya 4 After Event party… but why should I do that?  Well, I originally did that because I have no spare parts for DDDy body, so I thought it wouldn’t be a bad idea to pick up a 2nd DDDy body… of course DD Gathering released DDDy body as normal item, so that blew my plan out of the water.  But I kept my silence and was hoping to introduce Sasara in the Dollfie Dream Theater as a surprise character, however, Volks USA announced yesterday that they have begun sending Sasara to USA lottery winners >.>; exactly a month earlier than what they had promised.. so my so called surprised plan is not going to work anymore >.>;  So, there isn’t any reason for me to hold on to this group photo anymore.

I was hoping to be able to pick up Natsuki and use this photo to celebrate the arrival of 10th daughter, but most of you already knew that didn’t work out too well since DD Gathering open web order is ruthless to anyone outside of Japan.

I included the “original” Asuka oneesan in this photo because it fit the screen better this way~  It took me quite a bit of time to balance every daughters and have them sit where I want them to be @.@;

As usual, click on the image to bring up the full scale image stored in my flickr account.  I really love how the photos turns out with my Nikon D5000 and my light umbrella set from Cowboy Studio.

Been quiet for the past couple of days, but I finally started to feel better for the past day so I decided to catch this chance to go out with my Dollfie Daughters again.  The main objective this time was to correct a few oversights I had in the last outing so I had to take Asuka and Rin out again, but that would be a tad too dry just to keep taking photos of those two so I decided to take Saber out with me as well.

Ever since I saw the coverage of the I Doll event on Dannychoo.com, I have been searching for the appropriate sized henshin belt for my dollfie daughters.  The search has expanded into one of my main objectives to accomplish for my Japan visit.  It was not an easy search, but I have finally tracked down the source of that Decadedriver that Rin was wearing in the I Doll event.  That belt is actually made by Bandai candy division and it’s called the Masked Rider Decade Kit1, that kit is already out of stock every store I went to in Japan, the only trace of it was the Diend version of the candy toy Masked Rider Decade Kit2 in Yodobashi Camera west store in Shinjuku.  It was by pure luck that I noticed it because I was not looking for Diend driver.  Among other things I was able to verified was the fact that the Kamen Rider Belt Tribute set that are currently being sold by Hobby Link Japan on sale are also perfect fit for Dollfie Dream, I picked up a bunch of those during my trip to Akihabara.

And here are some photos of how they fit with my dollfie daughters:

Diend belt with Escalayer, Kabuto belt with Asuka and ZX belt with Rin.
