Reynardine Dolls

So two dolls on their way now, both Volks Super-Dollfie. First is a Volks Standard Megu, the 2008 renewal. Found a nice on on Mandarake, looks like it hasn't been used at all. I've wanted a 4-Sisters doll for years, and while I love my SDM-sized Kira, the SD Megu was the first Volks. I like that it is the 2008 renewal, though, as by that time Volks had corrected some of their early engineering issues (like those knees that would crack). The price was good, and this was a collector's purchase. My concern now is finding a few 9-10 sized wigs, since the older Volks had larger heads. Most of my larger doll wigs are 8-9. Her name will be Akane. Not sure if I'll redo her classic simplistic face-up.

Volks also is offering a FCS (Full-Choice Service) through Volks USA. I've passed on those for years, mostly because the limited offerings. But this time they had F-73, a doll I've really admired, and I wanted to have the FCS experience at least once! I did opt for a face-up since Volks does very nice ones now. I was surprised that she wasn't much more than the standard doll costs, but then again, she will come without a wig or welcoming outfit. Which is fine, I have wigs and outfits that will work. Her name will be Isuzu and I think she'll be a nice match for Ayame, my Lieselotte.

We're doing some changes in our library room that will hopefully allow me to finally get back to taking pictures of my dolls again! I'd like to be able to have portraits of all of them, although some of that will have to wait for a few face-ups.
