We are organizing and cataloging our "library" and couldn't bear to part with these: two well loved novels I read, and re-read, and re-read in my teens & 20's. They are tattered, doggeared and coffee stained. Beautiful.
Mists of Avalon & Illuminatus!
I've been pining for, like, six years for one of these babies. I missed the original releases, and they're very rare on the aftermarket. BOOYAH! She actually came from Berkeley!

I love this style of "pose doll"... I finally got one last year. Couldn't resist the bright orange hair!
And introducing wee Miss Cymbeline... Saint Trinian's little sister, and a Chibi Unoa "Lilin" who magically arrived the day after Christmas!

Introducing: Pomona! She is an Alice in Labyrinth "Chloe" head in white resin. I think her and Ermengarde should run away together and join the circus... sadly, they're both just heads living on borrowed bodies.

My Yo need more chibi duds!
Love the Dollfie Dream lingerie!
Dolpa 22, see DoA: And word is coming down the pipes about Dolpa 22! I think SD16 Kira looks like SD13 Yori, whom I always took for a variation on the 4 sisters theme... can't wait for official non-blurry pix!
Official pix are in on the Volks' Owners Appreciation Event in Kyoto for March 2010... which is Alice in Wonderland themed.

Did I mention I got all my FCS extras ordered? Doh! Sailor Dress, white tabi feet, wigzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!
Exploding with delight! I never thought this day would come... but Alchemic Labo in partnership with Crescent Shop are staging an all you can eat preorder for the Chibi Unoa released in extreme limitation earlier this year.
Note: You need to set up an account with Crescent Shop to place a preorder with them.

I've been pining vaguely for a hinamatsuri doll set of my own for awhile now... the size of the collection and display however is quite a commitment. So imagine my delight when I noticed "Re-ment Sample Series Hinamatsuri" on the PREORDER list at Hobby Link Japan! A little sleuthing and I scared up the supporting images and the set is as I hoped: a highly detailed miniature 1/6th (probably) complete Hinamatsuri, each set contains part of the display stand and a traditional box.
Available for preorder from several dealers including Hobby Search & HLJ.com!
For more info: Hinamatsuri -
The Japanese Doll Festival (雛祭り, Hina-matsuri?), or Girls' Day.
P.S. I was a very lucky girl and got everything I ordered from the Volks FCS Owners Event thingie! Girls Sailor Dress, white tabi feet, 2 FCS only wigs, one in the new peachy gold color! Now, I just need to wait two months until they show up. Maybe by Christmas, eh?
