The Volks doll company is based in Japan. Much like Japan animation, each doll has its own name, history, relationship to other Volks dolls and even special character traits and sometimes special powers. Let's take a look at the Lost and Dark Angels series for a moment. These dolls are generally 12 inches high. There are books to go along with the series of what each character is up to and how each one interacts with all the others.Sangie, for instance, is a Lost Angel. She is a beautiful dancer and has recently been recreated with an outfit resembling that of a belly dancer to best show off her dancer's body. In the story of the Lost Angels, she creates Tika. Tika is a guardian spirit spreading calm with her serene smile as she flies through the air. As for the Dark Angels, Marya seems to be most people's favorite. She wears all black to match her black-as-night hair. Her clothing is similar to something a Catholic Cardinal might wear, but it's all black, much skimpier and consists of three upside-down crosses. She carries a scepter with an open-winged bat on top. Her cold smile is accompanied by red-rimmed eyes.Your Own StoryOne great aspect of Volks dolls is that their Dollfire line is customizable. You can order your doll in pieces. Try different heads, bodies or get yours without hair and root the hair yourself. These dolls are also made so that you can paint the face, wipe if off when you want a change and repaint it.
