Let me just get this out: squeeeeeeee~!
Williams has been my dream doll/grail doll for some time now, but I didn't think it likely that I'd ever get him. Circumstances changed, and I recently contacted timchener on DoA about her Williams on the marketplace, and we made a deal. A few days later he was on his way, and he arrived this morning!
So far all my dolls have represented my own characters, but this boy is going to be a character from my favourite manga, "The Tyrant Falls In Love" by Hinako Takanaga. That's him, Souichi Tatsumi, on the left:
His wig and glasses (and more casual clothing) aren't here just yet.
Apologies for the flash and bad lighting. Soon I'm moving to a new place with much more natural light. Yay.
Big box!
Another big box! So pretty ;^;
This is definitely the most lovely company box I've ever seen. It even FEELS nice. And it's in terrific like-new condition. Unlike my dining table, which has been enthusiastically attacked by my evil cat.
Stop! 14-year-olds cannot handle the Williams D:<
Goodies! The seller had given the coat that comes with the fullset to a friend, but to make up for it she included another nice Volks outfit. His boots and belt were in the cute little red box. :3
SD designer outfit on the left, default Williams things on the right. And...my knee.
Paperwork! It was still sealed. But that didn't last for long. <_<;
Guidebook! He's my first Volks, so I'd never seen one of these. It has instructions on restringing and other stuff. Neat!
Wow! Volks goes all-out with their pillows. It has a zipper that goes around 3 of the four sides, and straps inside to hold him nice and snug.
"Quit taking pictures and get me out of here D:"
