Dollfie Saber

Naw, dolfie's are okay for a hobby but yeah, the pricing is outrageous. You have to be a hardcore collector to be careless about the prices.

I'm glad the price is so high as to be unconsiderable, or I would be feeling pangs of regret for not getting one ^^

I would get me a 1/4th scale than a full size. Probably easier to change clothing too and cheaper.
Me room is already full of stuff, I barely have room for me. I would be scary to see the full size Excalibur in my room at night. If i were to get a sword, it would be real, not plastic and would pay the full price then.

That's alright Danny. You can devour my post =3

Same thing with you Danny, I too wanted to buy a Dolfie but the price is outrageous but I think that would justify the price because each BJD are handmade and handcrafted but it is still the price @@

Never liked how Dollfies looked, but this saber is just gorgeous and impressive!

She's beautiful, but the price is probably too high for most people. If I were rich I would buy her in a heartbeat. The more I look at the pictures the more I have to say the price in my head to discourage me, arg!

Dolls seriously freak me out. Probably to many of those horror movie and scary story trauma's with the homicidal dolls that come to life...

Some dollfies are pretty but the prices tend to be way outrageous.

that saber me love. Go Arturia, but dolls like those are too expensive.

Good thing the price is so high otherwise I'd whip out wallet out faster than John Wayne in a western cowboy gunslinger flick...

Looks beautiful, but way out of my budget.

im actually going to buy this for xmas when i get back to hong kong!

I saving my money for a fully functional Chobits, maybe in the far future^^!

that's really pricy

I'd stick with my 1/6 military GARdollies thank you very much.

Not a doll person because dolls will be a pain to clean after they collected dust. This Saber looks pretty though. But after all, figures are better for me.

That Saber looks pretty nice. But if I ever got a Dollfie Dream, I'd probably get an unfinished doll and make her up as I go along. As far as 'dolling' goes, I'm already in deep, lol. I used to just have 1/6th stuff, but I ordered a 1/3rd resin doll head I've always wanted recently. It alone was a lot of money, hahaha. Will be quite a while till I can buy the body, but the head was limited so I figured... buy it now or never see it again, ya know? XD

That's Volks Dollfie Dream Saber *grabby hands* The reason she costs so much is because of how detailed her outfit is. She comes with underwear, the full dress and petticoats, her sword and full armor. She comes with much more then other dollfie dreams. Most dollfie dreams only cost in the region of 50,000 - 60,000 yen.

Saber was never for pre order, the only way to get any of the limited Dollfie Dreams from Volks is to attend their Dollpa Events and buy them there. All the limited anime and game Dollfie Dreams are limited editions and are only sold at Dollpa events. If on the rare occasion all the dollfie dreams do not sell at the dollpa, then any leftover go up for sale on the Volks international site, but from there they usually sell out very quickly.

I know they do seem expensive, but if you did want to get a dollfie dream I would recommend one. I have one and I love her she's great. Also if you get a limited dollfie dream, then it will probably increase in Value. I have the Yashiro Kasumi Dollfie dream and I brought her for about £300 and one recently sold at Yahoo Japan for over £500. So if I wanted to sell her, I'd get my money back and then some!

It's a shameless plug, buuut, I have an article all about Dollfie Dream's on my blog, including a list and links to every Dollfie Dream released to date including all limiteds. You can find it here if you want more info on them: http://aquilla429.wordpress.com/all-about-dollfie-dreams/

wow, one of the best looking anime character in dollfie so far. But still prefer figurines XD i stick to animals for dolls.

Volks always has amazing concepts and designs but usually poor implementation
it's good to see that when money is not an issue they can fully realize their production plans
and that saber maid outfit to go with this doll is too much! Now I want one.

OMG, I just got some great Saber Dollfie Dream news!!! Volks are releasing her again at Dollpa 20 in December and this time her price is just 52,000 yen. Much lower then the previous Saber.

This time she has different eye colour, she is going to be white skin (its not paper white, its a lovely soft creamy white) and she come's with different outfit options.

If I get a job I'm going to try nab her off Yahoo Japan for sure this time.

what a coincident, a female friend of mine who collect hi-end BJD send me a link to Volks few days ago, she keep trying to convert me into collecting dolls ^^;

My friend is getting a dollfie. I've seen pictures.... Ever since seeing them on Japanorama I've wanted one... but they're so damn expensive... it puts me off as you said Danny-san....

Want this one so bad right now, but way expensive, and can't afford right now...

Ok, pertinent question, why aren't Figmas, Frauleins, and the like considered dolls? Or are thay?

Gorgeous yet creepy....Will not try to get it...

Soooooo expensive T_T

I want one~ but there are only certain doll companies I'd get one from. I actually find most of them creepy, apart from the select few I've bookmarked.

While Saber looks gorgeous, I'd rather get an original design, whether a limited edition or regular it would depend. But I'm sure Saber fans would obviously appreciate this one a lot more than I would anyways :3

For a basic guide on BJDs in general, check this link http://bjd-wtf.livejournal.com/309.html

Now I must withdraw money from my bank account to buy this.

Wow, are these dolls of the Rozen Madien series? Would have thought so for that price. I couldn't justify paying that much unless they are going to come to life. ^_^

But, if I see this Saber in Akihabara for $500 or less. I will be tempted. I've already bought embarrassing things before and this doll looks incredible. ^_^;

If i pay so much i would expect her to protect me and alert me of other servants... as well as share some of my magical energy ifyaknowwhatimean ^^

It looks really life like ^_^

I love the doll, but not the price :P

I used to collect Pullips, but I only had one, and stopped because their heads were just so big for their bodies that they became floppy. I would love a Super Dollfie though, this one of Saber is gorgeous.

A 22cm doll cpsts that much?!
But yea, I guess it is somewhat reasonable?!
The clothes, the armour and the hair... Must have been a pain to make...

I can't even keep up with all the figures I'd love to buy :( To try and throw another expensive hobby onto the pile would make my wallet burst into flames.

The doll looks nice but I'd rather buy 40 figures than this one particular doll. The price would be the same.

I need to sell my motorcycle if I want to buy it.

In other word, no.

Looks awesome.
*looks at the price*
On a 2nd thought, no..

But if I had the money, definitely.
That's some quality there!

I'm not really into Dolfies. I don't like dolling very much, and as many of you have said, the price doesn't help.

Videogames, manga and figures have already monopolized my money and I don't think there is much left for other hobbies :P

Looks good, but I don't like dolls, something bout them give me the creeps. Besides, is to expensive.

Too expensive, I rather buy Pvc and kits than a doll

the scary thing with dolls is after U get one for XXX price or XXXX price you become kinda immune to how much those things cost :P SO if you haven't got into it maybe better not start ^^; of if U see one at a GREAT deal GET lol!

So beautiful, but so expensive. . . I gotta learn how to sew so I can start getting blanks and doing this for myself, seriously. (I already know how to rehair, scarily enough.)

I use poseable figures to help with my art, but even those don't cost all that much. I couldn't justify that expense to myself, as nice as it is. If I had $1000 kicking around, I'd save it and add to it for eventual purchase needs- like an Apple laptop or such.

I'm just not rich enough for fandom, I guess.

Yup, such a high price would shoot down even the slightest hope of me taking on dolling :)

Seems fine. But overpriced. It would cool also if she could be servant of a puppeteer.

Too expensive. Better buy PVCs and model kits.

That is very expensive, but for die-hard fans, I think this is well worth the money. If you're not afraid of dolls this will be a great item for collection. I really like the quality of dolfies, they don't creep me out all.
As for me I wouldn't pay 100,000Y for this.

other than the fact that she cost a good 30years worth of instant noodles,
you can't really get her unless you're the 5th successor to the throne of England

no connection, no money, no D.D. Sabre !

but damn ! you can buy a closet worth of clothing for her !

they are awesome but the price is insane, so no way I'll be collecting anything like that, probably ever

Do want. But to EXpensive for my budget. T_T

Its out of my price range. So pretty too. ToT

Yeah, you are right, taking up dolling in too expensive. But this Saber doll looks really cool. (not like most of the dolls that look a little creepy IMHO)

I've been eyeing her for quite a while but since I'm still reluctant to order the figures/gundam kits that I want, I'd say I have to pass.

Nope... even though Saber looks very nice for doll hobbyists, there's something in them I'll never like.

Dunno how to explain it.

And the price doesn't help much too... :P

its a 1/1 scale? Hmm... would a pretty cosplayer actually look better in that outfit?

I've considered buying a doll or two but, I'd lie to to get something simple, cute and fairly affordable.
Considering the work put into them, I understand the price though ^^

VERY - VERY EXPENSIVE HOW TALL IS IT?

I think I can just make my own Saber from a cheaper BJD...

that is tempting though

Man I would actually get the doll if I could get my hands on it. Too bad it cant be ordered, can it? (Not considering eBay an option because there's still a limit even for me ^^) I don't have any figures and there's just a few I would consider buying but that doll just has a different feeling to it... Wouldn't have to start collecting dolls or anything but man, 1/3 scale Saber standing somewhere in my apartment would be awesome :)

oh wow! always been into dolfies but never thought theyd do figures

the price is a bit over for me ~_~"

but i like it style ^o^

That is one beautiful dolfie! Luckily that is WAY WAY WAY out of my price range.

I really want to take up collecting dollfies, but seeing as I am low income, I can't afford to buy one. Or any at all. :(
