Volks Dollpa goodies!

Posted by balldylox 

Last weekend, Volks USA had thier Dollpa items become available for sale. I waited patiently while the clock ticked down and I was rewarded with three items that I had been wanting for some time now! I received the items on Friday, three days earlier than the UPS shipping email said I would, but I went out of town on Saturday and did not get back until early Sunday morning. So I had not had time to get any pictures of anything until today. So please check out the new goodies I got for Manami!

Oh, was I happy when I saw these in the box! Ever since I saw the Gangster outfit for the first time, I knew I wanted to see it on Manami. So when it became available, I made sure to try and get it. Same with the headphones.... they always looked so nice on Danny's girls. And even tho the wig is a regularly stocked item, I went ahead and ordered it at the same time to save some shipping fees. I saw that wig on someones Yoko before and it looked stunning so I knew it would look good on Manami as well.

Here is Manami all dressed up and ready to go to the Greensboro doll meeting. I wanted to go meet Nicole, Manamis mom, and finally see her in person as well as Ed, who owns four daughters now. I had never gotten to see any other Dollfie Dreams in person before so I was super excited about meeting Ed and his girls. I also wanted to see the store we met at ( Doll Market ) due to it being a huge place. So I made sure to take the headphones along so Manami would have tunes for the road.

While not quite as adjustable as I had thought, the headphones still fit quite well and don't slip off. They are very detailed as well and I like them alot.

I opted for the brown colored ones as they have a wood look to them and I like the retro feel of the all silver sides.

And here is Manami with her Gangster outfit on. She also happens to have found a guitar case..... I wonder what's in there?

I love how this outfit looks on her. It's super tight and form fitting on the top but once in place, it looks good. I like the tiny pinstripes too.

The accents on the hat and that choker are a perfect match to Manamis eyes. They all kind of glow.....

Now I'm wondering.... what *do* you have in the guitar case Manami? Did you get that at the Doll Market?

"Oh you wanna know what I have in here? Well, SAY HELLO TO MY LITTLE FRIEND!!"

"His name is Koosey, the acoustic guitar!"

I was sooo not thinking that's what was in the case......

"Well too bad, I can't play the guitar just yet, so instead we'll listen to my record player! "

This record player was at the Doll Market store and I just couldn't pass it up. It was so awesome and so cheap.... just ten dollars!

What's even better is that it's also a music box! I had no idea until Manamis mom Nicole pointed out that there was a windup key on the bottom of it. When you wind it up, it plays a tune and the record actually spins. You can even move the needle arm from it's sittin position to playing on the record. This thing is just too cool.

"If you don't want to play the record player anymore, I know something else we can play instead..... "

O_o <<nosebleed>>

And now for Manamis new hairstyle. Curly twintails! I think I am going to die from kawaii overload........ that and loss of blood.

She looks so different by just swapping wigs......... I just can't get over that change.

    Manami does look totally different and super cute with curly twintails. I like her original hairstyle too. The two light colors are perfect for her red eyes. Her Greensboro doll meeting outfit is so adorable! She looks so dressed up and ready to go out. She is also terribly cute in the gangster outfit, but maybe it will encourage her to push the kitties around. The acoustic guitar looks great! I hope she doesn't keep you up at night playing it.

      Hee hee, I am glad you think so! At first, I wasn't too sure about the curly tails but after taking shots in this new outfit, I really do like them. The Greensboro outfit is her "mint" outfit from Nightfall. I really like that setup so she got to wear it out to the meetup. And yes, she has already pushed the kittehs around while using the guitar. She was trying to play a tune this morning and both cats went running. She laughed and proceeded to chase them around the house while plucking away at the guitar. Silly girl.....

    Can't help but picture her running alongside George Nelson in Oh Brother Where Art Thou~ "I hate cows worse than coppers!"

    Also, the new wig--Manami looks *le gasp* innocent?! What trickery is this? She's got to be plotting something, there's no way she can look that harmless without trying something. =P

      Wow, a "where art Tho" reference. So cool! :)
      About that wig... I know! She actually seems younger with that on. And I agree that something is going on behind the scenes with her. She's way too devious to get away with just looking kawaii and not using that to her advantage. ^_^

      Thank you very much! I am really happy with the new outfit and she likes it too. As for the new things, you actually haven't seen everything I got for her from up there yet.... O_o I am a very doting Papa so yes, Manami is about as spoiled as they come. You know it's bad when Chun and d.ark tell you your girl is spoiled. *_* Ha ha!

      Thanks so much for the kind words! She just kind of whipped those cuffs out of nowhere while I was taking pics. I think she bought them at the Greensboro meetup when I wasn't looking.... :^D

    I can't believe I somehow missed this post earlier. Manami sure looks nice in that gangster outfit. You really splurged on her I see. Headphones, outfit, guitar.... She is one lucky girl.

    The new wig really is a change for her. I'm so used to seeing Manami with her "regular wig" that she looks completely different. Very cute look. Sakura said she really likes Manami's new look as well.

      Thanks for the nice words! I did indeed splurge on her because I had been wanting that outfit for ages now so when it became available, I jumped on it.

      At first I wasn't sure about that new wig but I'm really digging it now. And if Sakura likes it then I know I did good on the choice! :3

      Hey, you probably can't find it because it's listed under SD wigs, not DD wigs. Here is the link:

      http://volksusa.com/w133b744.html

      This wig is a little large and will fall off the back of Manamis head due to the weight of the long twin tails. But if you are using one of those silicone wig caps, it should stay on with no problems at all. I saw someones Yoko DDdy wearing this same wig and that's where I got the idea to get it for Manami. It *just* fits and looks great if you have it held on with a wig cap.
