It's been not only a long time since I've posted here, but it has been a long time since I shared photos of my place. The last time you guys saw where I lived I was still living at home with my parents. It was back in 2012, so easily 4 years ago you saw my collection. Now you can see not only has my… [more]
So since I've moved into my new apartment I still hadn't set up my photography studio. Seems work has me busier than I thought I would ever be, however I took some time this past weekend to set up my studio so I could take some photos of my latest purchase, Alter's 1/8th Melty from Shining Hearts. Now… [more]
Pre-ordered this figure the moment she was released for pre-order. I needed for for multiple reasons, she's sexy/half naked, plus while she's not Sora she reminds me of Sora from Yosuga no Sora! But she's Yuki from Maid Yome and she's pretty amazing. The only issue is her adorable mouth really looks… [more]
I recently went on a trip to a magical place, The Container Store. Ok it's not really magical, but I happen to have discovered a love for organizing my home. I tend to prefer Ikea and Daiso but we went to The Container Store on a whim and I discovered this lovely storage container! I've been needing… [more]
Look at what I got in the mail today! Oh my goodness her box was so big, I guess I honestly forgot how big Dollfies really are! She’s so lovely and I honestly still can’t believe I finally own her!
She’s super cute and not hard to pose, also getting her dressed wasn’t difficult, I do hear that some clothes can stain her so I’m worried what will stain her >_<. I hear res stains so I’m gonna see about getting her a wig cap since her hair is red.
Seems she’s already got her eyes on my Kamina Dakimakura!
I’m really honestly so happy to finally own her, now I have my eyes on a few other Dollfies but for now I doubt I’ll be getting other dollfies until I have a job. For sure I will be getting more but for now I’m going to enjoy my time with Yoko! I’m so much closer to my goal of owning all the Yoko figures I can get my hands on! Thanks to everyone who helped donate to get me Yoko and thanks to Simon who sold her to me for such an awesome deal!
Also don’t forget to catch me on AX Live! Every Wednesday at 7pm PST! We’re giving away 1 free 4day pass to Anime Expo every week so you really won’t want to miss out!! Plus surprise figure giveaways from time to time!
I feel like saying, about time you got your Yoko DD, your wait was too long.
Congratz is in place.
it was super long! I’m so glad i finally got her in!
glad you got her are you going to bring her to the show?
yep yep yep!
Congratulations! The wait is over! Yoko looks great! =)
Thanks! She’s sooo pretty!
I thought something was up, I could hear your squealing all the way down here in SD! xD
Seriously though, congrats on your first adoption ^^
I think my neighbors were worried, i was squealing like crazy!
Yay! Congratulations! She looks gorgeous! Are you gonna get extra clothes for her?
yep, also gonna talk to my friend who is a fashion design major to see if maybe we can make and sell original designs!
If you make clothes in other sizes, I’d be totally interested *is a massive doll person just has no DD. ._.*
we just would need to be able to know how big to make them for other dolls but are considering it
Awesome!! She looks amazing! 🙂
thanks! She is amazing!
great that she arrived safe ^^.
I’m pretty sure her wig wont stain, i had her with that wig on for a month or so and saw no stains.
Mainly her shorts to worry about; the insides wont stain but around the edges where the outside part touches her will.
ok thanks for the tip, first time dollfie owner so i’m obviously a noob!
Congrats on your new DD! Just be wary of any dark colored clothing as the color might stain the body. I had a DD when they first came out and didn’t know that dark colors would stain the body. I learned to do a vinegar rinse on all dark clothing I used on my DD.
Getting a wig cap is a good idea for the darker colored wigs.
i read about the vinegar rinse on figure.fm i’m asuming regualr vinegar but for how long?
Frances. Congratz on having your own Dollfie Yoko. It is passionante people like you who inspire me to be a figure collector. I am very happy you finally added Dollie Yoko to your Yoko army collection.
aww, really when you start collecting figures it’s hard not to become passionate about them, they are so lovely, i’m so excited about this new dollfie and i bet i’ll be collecting more dollfies in the future
Her face looks even more adorable in your photos!
I heard that she also comes with her swimsuit too…or did she just come with her regular outfit?
By the way, I’ve finally sat down and watched Gurren Laggan. 😉 The story is better than I expected it to be, and I’m definately becoming a Nia and Yoko fangirl.
Speaking of which…seeing your Yoko is making me tempted to look for a Dollfie Dream Nia…
she didn’t come with the swimsuit, it’s something extra you have to buy, i’m debating looking for it since i wasn’t a huge fan of her swimsuit. but having her now makes me want to track down nia
Congratulations for finally getting her 😉
she looks very nice
Congrats on getting DD Yoko, she’s by far one of the cutest Dollfies out there. ^^
Indeed, take care for staining. A wig cap is always a worthwhile protection, even if a particular wig shouldn’t stain. Also be quite careful for staining on the vinyl body, next to pre-wash or vinegar rinse a body stocking might be a good investment.
I found that Yoko’s default wig while gorgeous is hard to maintain so you might want to get her another wig for daily wear. (There’s a few good red colored ones out there.) Some wig oil from Volks and a simple toothbrush is the basic stuff you’ll need to style and maintain the wig.
Now that’s what I’m talking about! You had your eye on her for such a long time, and at first she seemed like such a far away goal. Then you got closer and closer and now you finally have her! Congrats! I’m happy to have donated!
Yay, you did it!!
And be prepared, Bjd’s families usually grow up really fast XD (yes, even if you’re just a poor student XD)
Holy smokes. They are not cheap. Good for you.
so envious of you right now – not that it is manly to own a doll though. She looks lovely and know she will be cared for a long time.
congrats!
Umm…Dancing Queen…I think you got it a little backwards. You are Yoko’s now. Yoko is not yours. She owns YOU. It is like this with all of these kind of dolls. You are now Yoko’s minion. She controls the horizontal. She controls the vertical. You are there to buy her clothes and get her props to play with and take lots and lots of pictures of her. You are pwn3d. Welcome to the Dark Side. Here’s your cookie. See you at the next doll meet.
She really is too pretty for words. ;w; Congrats…!
Could you tell me how big exactly?
