Tokyo Doll Show 26 Coverage Part 2

Posted by punynari [www] 

Continuing my coverage of Doll Show 26 which was held in Tokyo yesterday. The Doll Show was held in Hamamatsucho in the Tokyo Trade Center. I had a bit of trouble finding the building and even information online. Whenever I searched Doll Show all I got was people saying it was in Hamamatsucho with no specifics. The Tokyo Trade Center is actually on the same street as the Pokemon store (in the direction of the park).

Before I begin this review, I respectfully ask that if you post my pictures from my site or figure.fm articles that you give me credit and a linkback in your blog articles. Thanks!

Whoa! This doll looks familiar. ^_^

This is the doll that belongs to Dannychoo which was on display on the second floor. Was so cool to see it in person. That maid uniform is unique and that wig makes his Saber stand out among others.

One more of Dannychoo’s famous doll.
No telling how many Dollfie Dream converts this Saber doll has made. :p

This is a Yuki Dollfie Dream from the anime The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya. The outfit she is wearing is Shana’s from Shakugan no Shana. An unusual choice but looks nice.

Speaking of Yuki, I think I saw her the most out of any kind of Dollfie Dream at the convention. Yuki is popular with Otaku because she’s quiet and has similar interests to us.

Lots of Yuki! Love her ears. :3

Here’s the Saber Dollfie Dream in some Nanoha cosplay. She makes Nanoha’s uniform look more like a knights.

More girls gathering for photos. Including popular new doll Natsuki.

At the Doll Show, it should be mentioned that it is polite to ask the person behind the table if pictures are okay. These are not all owned by a company and are privately owned and cared for dolls by normal people.

Someone likes their lolis. ^_^ This is an Illia Mini Dollfie Dream from that anime Fate Stay Night. She is in a Gothic Lolita outfit. :3

Dollfie Dream Saber Alter and Escalayer here. Sometimes I end up liking Saber Alter more because of her eyes and pale skin. Pity she goes for almost 200,000 yen in the second hand market in Tokyo…

Here’s the brand new Dollfie Dream Moe on stage. She was released the same time as Natsuki but doesn’t seem to be as prominent at the Doll Show.

Here Dollfie Dream Moe and Natsuki are on stage together. Still prefer Natsuki.

On the right is a Hatsune Miku doll. Hatsune Miku is a vocaloid program that is popular with the otaku crowd.

Saber Alter again but she seems to be holding a miniature Asuka Dollfie Dream. Wonder where they got that?

Really love Saber Alter’s eyes. They remind me of a cat for some reason.

A very cute Azunyan with nekomimi from the anime K-ON. :3

Not really sure who they are but they’re cute.

By the way, if you notice, my Doll Show coverage features mostly the Dollfie Dream side. This is because there are few Super Dollfies I like and some of the other ones creep me out.

Another of Dollfie Dream Escalyer. I expect you might have seen a few photos of her already on figure.fm. :p

Looks like Rin Tosaka is ready to go in for the morning commute into work. Very professional.

Looks like Natsuki’s commuting with Rin Tosaka into work as well.

The light was pretty intense coming out of that window so sorry for the lighting..

Think this is a Da Capo dollfie dream. Suika I think?

Rei Ayanami. Don’t see her around as much as the Asuka Dollfie Dream which I actually prefer.

Sometimes a doll needs that little extra boost of fire power…. ^^;

One more of a Rei Ayanami doll. Don’t really like Azone’s dolls. Their eyes just look weird.

Now heading up to the 3rd floor. I almost left after seeing the second floor and seeing that the “3rd floor” didn’t have anything. Turns out there were 2 third floors. Thank goodness I didn’t leave because some of the best dolls and items for sale are on the 3rd floor.

    I wouldn't say I'm a convert but more along thelines of Saber Mirai giving me thefinal nudge to get into dolls, Dollfies in particular.

    Do I spy a Miku Hatsune Dollfie custom in one of those pics.

    That picture of Saber in Nanoha's Exceed mode outfit made me SQUEAL, it looked so awesome. If I do get a DD Nanoha, I'm SO going to make Exceed mode for her, because it's just so much cooler than Aggressive. Though I think I'll trim mine in venice lace instead. . . Presuming I don't completely confuse myself trying to learn to sew. XD

    I also like that suit Rin's in; it looks classy.

    That's either DD Kotori from Da Capo or Sayaka from Suika (they are the same doll really, same head mold and same Volks make-up, only the purple eye shade is slightly darker on Kotori). That looks like a DD Femi wig on her.

    Cool photos again, thanks.

    DD Moe looks so much better with a different wig. Mine won't wear the default wig... !

    Azusa on image ID#27011 looks like custom Obitsu 50cm. The head and eyes shape looks similar.

    Thans for all the photos.

    The girls are adorable, and there are so many Yukis!! I haven't seen her around the Dollfie scene a lot, but it seems she's very loved!
