According to the July issue of Volks News, special limited edition Dollfie Dream (DD) makes of Ayanami Rei and Soryu Asuka Langely will be available at the Home Town Dolls Party 5 in Osaka. They mark the newest additions to Volks Evangelion Complimentary Design Project.
The spherical joint dolls, which stand 27cm high, will be clothed in popular maid-inspired costumes. The costumes first appeared as part of a pachinko promotion, featuring the two Evangelion characters on special limited edition member cards in summer of 2007. Last winter, the same characters graced limited edition cans of UCC coffee. The costume includes: a one piece dress, apron, petticoat, underwear, choker, decorative cuffs, head piece, white thigh-high socks, and school issue brown loafers.
In addition to costumes, the dolls will have custom made heads, eyes, and wigs on a DD Base Body II with white colored skin and medium sized bust. Each will be priced at 54,000 yen. A "Tokyo 3 First JHS School Uniform," including a shirt, blue jumper, red ribbon, white undergarments, black socks, white indoor shoes, and black satchel bag, will be available separately at a price of 16,000 yen. Both dolls and the school uniform will available in limited quantities and only at the upcoming Osaka Dolls Party.
