Just an update regarding the Dollfe Dream Sakura lotto draw. I put order in Tuesday May 4th with the last day to enter the drawing being May 7th. Winners were scheduled to be notified on Friday May 14th, so needless to say it was going to be a long wait.

On May 16th (a little past projected contact time) finally received the good news from VOLKS USA. I had won my DD Sakura Matou as well as her Black Transformation set. I had entered for all of her outfits, which also included the swimsuit and casual wear. Unfortunately I did not win those, but pretty happy that I did get Sakura and the transformation set was the one I really wanted anyway.
I remained positive that I would secure Sakura mainly because I have always had good luck when ordering on the VOLKS USA site. Plus I have a secret technique that seems to work when it comes to lotto draws ^^;;
More importantly, thank you again for all of you who helped make it possible by purchasing items I was selling and through kind donations!
I say that because Sakura wasn’t the only Dollfie Dream I won from the Dolpa 23 lotto. I also entered for DDdy Alna, the latest of VOLKS Afterschool Akihabara Girls. She isn’t for me though, I actually made this entery for my comrade Daimaru X. He has big plans for her too, can’t wait to see him bring out her potential.

She is absolutely gorgeous. She will make many people happy!

Another great angle!

Both Alna and Sakura are scheduled for August delivery according to email. But considering I got Rin and Yoko ahead of projected schedule last year, have a strong feeling I may see these girls before then. Alna won’t be with me long though, as soon as she arrives she will be heading across the world! But don’t worry, Sakura will be around to see her at Ultima-i and already have some great Sakura x Rin ideas.

VOLKS has put up an After Event page for those that still haven’t had an opportunity to try and secure one of those great girls. And though I haven’t talked about her, you can also go there to adopt MDD Maria Ushiromiya – she is a cutie pie!!
English site can be found at : http://www.volks.co.jp/en/dollfiedream/index_dollfiedream.aspx
Japanese site here : http://www.volks.co.jp/jp/event/dolpa23/after.html
Info about the web order portion isn’t available yet (still finalizing I suppose) but you can check those pages out to see some of the other great items that were available at Doll Party 23. Many nice outfits, accessories, and of course lovely Super Dollfies for those that prefer resin dolls. As always, I personally will be waiting for the clothes and accessories to appear on VOLKS USA.
I may see if I can try to get the two Sakura outfits I missed depending on how high the traffic volume is on the site during the after event.
Woot! Congratulations!!
Congrats! ^^
Am hoping to secure an outfit or two on the After Event if possible…
awesome congrats!!!
Congrats!!!! :)))
This monday I will be entering the lottery for Sakura too :) I wanted the casual dress because I love the shoes lol, but it will depend if someone from my family is willing to give me a birthday present in advance lol :))
Good luck in your quest to get her. International winners should get her in June (lucky) but hoping US winners won’t have to wait until August and that she will arrive early.
Yeah, considering going after her casual too. I may pass on her swimsuit though.
Is Alna still available anywhere?
Just on Yahoo Auction Japan.
I have this search saved to follow Alna auctions there http://bit.ly/dyMuWR
