Dollfie Dream Asuka Goes to Acen 2010 Day 1
Today I took my 2nd Dollfie Dream daughter Asuka to attend one of the biggest anime convention around my area, Anime Central, also known as Acen. I didn’t plan on going to this event originally, however, fellow blogger Anonymous_Object from Cool & Spicy is traveling across the state line to come to this convention, so I decided to go as well since it would be a good opportunity to see his Yui in person.
There was a Doll meet arranged by the folks from Den of Angels, and here are some of the shots I took at the meet!
My Asuka and Anonymous’s Yui meeting for the first time!
Some panchira shots while we are at it! When I am at the helm, it's inevitable that we get some fan service XD~
There were other dolls at the meet too~
But overall, Anonymous and I were the only two people with Dollfie Dream there. Quite a few people were interested at our DD and inquired about them though!
So after the Doll Meet, we went outside to the balcony for some outdoor photos~
Then at the Exhibit Hall inside the Rosemont Convention Center, I was met with one of the greatest surprise of the day! I saw a 1:1 Chii browsing around Kino Bookstore!
I was like Whoa! Chii is definitely going out and about! Doing stuff on her own! XD ok ok, not a real Chii but a pretty close looking 1:1 Papermoon Chii. For those of you who are not familiar with Papermooon doll, please check out Danny’s article on Papermoon.
I immediately asked Chii’s mother for permission to set up my Asuka next to her for a photo! She gladly accepted the opportunity.
My goodness, Chii is huge in comparison to a mere Dollfie Dream!
Here is a shot of Chii and her “mother”~
I honestly couldn’t find very many things to buy in the dealer room, so I ended up picking these up at Kino.
I have always been a fan of Komatsu Eiji 駒都えーじand when I saw his name on the book, I knew I had to pick it up.
But then again, the loots didn’t stop coming today just because I didn’t buy much at Acen…
Some of the Yahoo Japan Loots came in unexpectedly fast today!
That’s right, my Fifteenth daughter Erika Sendo has arrived! I don’t think I had formally announced her adoption, but now is as good as any time! And for those of you who are wondering, that Kiriha on the left is only seeking a temporary home here, I am merely holding her for fellow figure.fm member for the moment~
I would love to do more in depth review of the my loots today but dragging around my DSLR, a tripod and my daughter around all day had me exhausted! I also took some cosplay pictures, will try to collect more tomorrow and put those into another post!
Wish my girls could have gone XD. Nice photos! I noticed that Yui is sitting on Asuka's hand XD
Would have been a blast! Need moar DD at the Doll Meet!
*starts singing* It's only a paper moon, hanging over a cardboard sea, but it wouldn't be make-believe if you believed in me! (What? It's a real song, I swear! In fact, I actually think the company may have been named after the song.)
Acen looks fun! Wish I could get my butt to a con this year, but seeing as I'm a jobless student, I'm scraping pennies to get myself even one Dollfie. I sure envy your. . . *goes back and checks the current count* Wow, fifteen girls! Hope you've got insurance for them. That's quite an investment in cuteness you have there.
Was quite a shocker to see a Papermoon there, her mother was bring her about on a electric 3 wheeler... yeah, hardcore!
I am still building my ultimate harem! Well I have paid for 15 but only 13 of them are with me at the moment, waiting for Rina and Yuki to arrive!
Nice photos! I wish I was there~ That DD wooden stand really does its job. I'm planning to get one soon.
The wooden base modification is only a temporary measure, I suggest you get the Dollfie World version if you don't have a stand yet.
RAA~AWR! *rage* >_<! you have another?!
Needed 3 to complete the HIMM trio...
so darn awesome XD and wow about the papermoon Chii XD
XD Yeah really, I was like woah!
congratz and nice photo :D
Thanks XD~
OMG! 1/1 Chii! That's rare to see in this side of the Pacific! I'd be surprised too if I see that. I thought it was a cosplayer at first XD Asuka and Yui looking great ^_^ You guys sure know how to create attention carrying the only Dollfie Dreams there :D
LOL, Chii is going out and about all by herself!
Well we didn't carry them around much, kept them in the bag since I am carrying too many stuff to have her out on the loose.
Nice! Looks like a fun day at the con and Dollfie shenanigans. ^^
Indeed!
Great photos! Looks like you two had a blast, wish I didn't have to travel over an ocean to get anywhere XD
Looking forward to seeing some shots of Erika too ^^
Will do~
I'm starting to want to adopt her really badly. DDs are addictive!
Asuka is not in high demand, so you should be able to get her around 60ishk yen.
Asuka is so beautiful!!!
Indeed, she is one of my favorites~
Congrat~~~!!! ^O^/
Thanks ^^;
cool a meetup! must have been fun~
nice asuka pics ^^
and CONGRATS you finally got ericka,cant wait for pics, she is so pretty X3
Yup yup, it was a lot of fun. I haven't been able to open Erika up, so busy with everything~
