All ya'll probably have seen this, but it is so exciting. Rawr!

Volks has posted a sentimental history of super dollfie, contests and games, and a nearly complete sketch of their events for the year! This includes TWO US Dolpas for June and November. View: Super Dollfie 10th Anniversary Events Schedule

Dolpa3 in NYC.
June 7th - 8th 2008
Fashion Institute of Technology NYC, NY

In conjunction with FDQ. Registration will be through the Volks site, when they post it. It looks like Volks is beta-testing a new store interface on the Japanese side. Neat!

Also: greatest thing about the writer's strike? It sent us scurrying for downloadable content on the internet. Yay for BBC programming! Mr. Kallisti has been on a quest to get me mostly Eastenders (I died a little when they cancelled the series on BBC America), every available costume drama and mystery thriller airing. We just transfer it over via wifi on the TiVo and blammo! Plays like TEEVEE.

New favorite show EVAR: Phoo Action

From the genius who brought you Tank Girl and Gorillaz, Jamie Hewlett. Whitey with the red hair back there is wearing Buddha's magic underpants!

(gosh it is hard to get around to posting even when I'm in the moooooood! bizzy, bizzy!)

Wowie, something new-NEW out of the Volks arsenal. Original Fashion Dollfie, Masami (light skinned) & Tomoko (dark, and darker than their normal "tan"!). New dollfie based on the EB Slim bodies, same as Who's That Girl. So they'll have the fashion line-up of the WTG behind them to boot.

I love them! The face-mold looks similar to the romantic Century Models, sweet yet still sassy. Perhaps their trying a different tactic from their fashion Century Models? I don't think they ever appealed much this side of the pond.

Edit: It appears that this is a collaboration with a TV show or... ? If anyone can translate the page above better than I, please inform!

On a side note, I have been slowly working on fixing the glitches with my blog, and have been doing some housecleaning with the categories. Trying to trim them down a bit,and replace too specific categories with tags. You can use the search function or the "tag cloud" list to find specific things like "dollfie" or "unoa" and I've tried to add my doll names in a consistent manner, so you can search on "St. Trinian" and come up with all the posts I've ever made about her. Neat!

I don't usually work piecemeal with the site, but with current time constraints I update a style tag here, some brokey js there. Bleh. I'm still getting settled into the new house. But I've managed to have some quality dolly hobby time, just not documented. Yet. Bwahahaha!
