The Japanese have given us a lot of great technological advancements over the years, but what other areas have they contributed to? For one, the doll industry has recognized Volks as a leader in the field. Their dolls, the Super Dollfie line, are difficult to find in the United States but are highly sought after. Super Dollfies are available in both male or female versions, and there is a Mini line as well.

The dolls won't be as difficult to find for much longer. The company has decided to make them available in the United States. In fact, they're establishing a corporate branch. Registration for the U.S. version of the Super Dollfie Owners Club is now underway as well.

Super Dollfie is unique in a few ways. The doll's appearance is based on Japanese anime. Because of this, they have eyes that are large--you could even say they're oversized. They have slender bodies and have interesting make-up. One other exceptional feature is that the dolls can be customized so that each is more of a one-of-a-kind doll than a commercial production.

The company offers standard models, but taking advantage of the customization offer is what makes Super Dollfie so desirable. Customization options include two skin tones, 22 types of glass eyes, 18 different colors of hair, nine body types, and much more. If you're in a hurry to get one, however, that wouldn't be the way to go--it takes an extra four weeks for the customization service. Even still, Americans are eagerly anticipating the new arrivals from Volks and their new U.S. location should speed up delivery time.
