Saber plain clothes set

Saber’s plain clothes set (イバーのお出かけセット) was one of the first cloth set released by Volks for dollfie Saber. Here’s Volks’ official web page (in Japanese) for the dress set. Since it was so old, it took a long time before it was spotted on the auction and finally I was able to get my hand on it. I finally own all of the Volks’ original dress set that was released for dollfie Saber. Looking at the photos, all the efforts are worth it. Saber is just super kawaii in this dress.

This is an old clothing set from Volks so the quality cannot be compared with the later sets. The fit was not spot on and they did not line the dark fabrics. But I have Saber in a body stocking all the time to protect her from the stains anyway so it should be fine.

Dollfie dream Tohsaka Rin

Today I’ll introduce my 3rd doll: Type-Moon Fate / hollow ataraxia dollfie dream Tohsaka Rin (遠坂凛). Rin is a limited item released on Dolpa 21, which was held on May 5th 2009 in Tokyo, Japan. She has an MSRP of ¥48,000, I have to get her through a proxy from Yahoo Auction Japan so the actual cost is considerably higher. But since I’ve already got dollfie Saber, naturally I have to get Rin to keep Saber company. She comes with 22mm animetic eyes, original head and original wig. She has a dollfie dream base body II with normal skin color and a medium bust. Volks’ official web page (in Japanese) for DD Tohsaka Rin has more information. It arrived from Japan on June 5th, 2009.

Here’s Rin in her box.

Dollfie dream Kanu Unchou

Introducing my 2nd doll: Ikkitousen Great Guardians dollfie dream dynamite Kanu Unchou (関羽雲長). Kanu is released at Dolpa 20 which was held on January 10, 2009 with an MSRP of ¥58,000. I actually never watched any of the Ikkitousen anime, but when I first saw photos of dollfie dream Kanu, I was captivated by her face and decided to get her if possible. I actually found her with a very small mark up on Yahoo Japan Auction, so I place the bid without much thought. Kanu comes with metalic 20mm animetic eyes, original head and original wig. She has a dollfie dream dynamite body with dark skin color and a large bust. This makes her very distinct among all the other dollfie dreams released to date. But it also makes her a bit difficult to pose and care for as there are no hands available that matches her color and can’t get any other optional or spare parts for her because they are either not available for the dollfie dream dynamite body or the skin color doesn’t match. So I will have to get by with the two set of hand that came with her and be extra careful with her. There’s more information on her at Volks’ official web page (in Japanese). She arrived together with my 3rd doll Tohsaka Rin, which I will introduce later. 😉

Gothloli Saber

I bought this real princess onepiece made by AZone International a while back. However I was really disappointed at the coloir. The color was a very dark red and personally I always like the vibrant bright red better. I soaked the dress in vinegar to get rid of some of the lose dyes. But it stained the white frill really bad. I a half mad mood, I through the dress in some undiluted liquid bleach. Surprisingly, the bleach actually bleached the dark pigment away and left me with a much brighter red color. Well I’m glad it worked out because otherwise I won’t have these pictures.

So here it is. Saber with the slightly “modified” AZone International’s real princess onepiece, Volks’ long socks and AZone International’s heart buckle strap shoes.
