Doll Show 50 Early Summer: Is Your Wallet Ready?

05/03/2017 By AllAboutTheDolls 14 Comments

UPDATED:  After the Doll Show, Azone_Ringo removed the original images from Twitter.

Doll Show 50 Early Summer is taking place on May 4, 2017 at Asakusa.

Azone revealed a few teaser photos to get fans pumped!

KIKIPOP! is so pretty.

It's like I'm transported to the 80's.

I hope we can see these hair colors on future dolls.

Looking forward to seeing the entire image.

Do I spot pink hair on an EX-Cute girl . . . ? Yes, I do!

Google translates that she is a special collaboration.

      Hi Lucie,

      I felt the same way. I was pumped for Doll Show 50.

      Azone shared images of their booth and then my wallet began to weep 🙁

      Too many cute dolls are heading our way.

      I hope we can weather this dolly wave of cuteness 😉

    Hi!

    I like how Azone teases their fans with some pictures ^^ It’s not the case of Groove who is strangely quiet since March… I wonder when there will be a new pullip.

    And now… damn you Azone I will have to break once again my rule of “no ear cat girls at home” because Yuzuha is so cute! Why does she have to wear a lolita outfit? Why! I can’t resist T-T

    I see that there will be a new “big girl”… How interesting! 😀 I’ve seen her on pictures on Azone website but I will wait to see official promotional pictures to made up my mind. And now I’m really excited to know if they plan to add her some friends later! >.<

      Hi Anne-Sophie,

      I was surprised to see Azone coming out with another large scale girl.

      Linda of Mes crazy expériences, stated in her video, that her eyes are similar to Dollfie Dream eyes.

      Looking forward to getting more info on Iris Collect series (apparently she likes to read books).

      I don’t think Azone will allow this delightful girl to go without friends.

      They’ll be here before we know it (like Katie and Neil of Alvastaria’s new friend).

      I thought the last few months were difficult for me not buying dolls . . . but OMG!

      The dolls Azone previewed at the Doll Show are going to have me weeping for months if I don’t add at least one of them to my collection.

      That Yuzuha. What! Why?

      I agree with you. I thought I could go without her in my collection this year but Ugh! She’s too freakin cute!

      And her outfit, that’s the dagger trying to break my resistance shield.

      I don’t know what is going on with Groove Inc. It has been strangely quiet.

      It’s unusual for a company not to make any announcement this far into the year.

      There are many fans wondering the same thing when will there be a new Pullip?

      It would be nice if Groove would address fans’ concerns.

      I wonder if there’s a business deal/merger in the works, maybe between Groove, the Pullip Brand and Plex.

      They have been working together since Sailor Moon but with the latest Cinderella, Plex was front and center.

      A similar quietness happened with a doll company based in the UK.

      They were quiet for a long time and it was later revealed that the company was bought by Disney.

      I hope Groove announces something by the end of May.

      The quietness is starting to raise some red flags of concerns for a few collectors.

      And we don’t want another surprise like in 2009.

      Thanks for chatting with us about Doll Show 50 Early Summer: Is Your Wallet Ready?

    I wonder if the new Ex-Cute girl is a collaboration with KiKI POP like Sweet Dream Chiika, I would love it if Azone continued the line

      Hello Al,

      Oh, the Kinoko Juice and Chiika collaboration was a sweet & delightful release.

      The new EX-Cute girls are Koron and Chiika and it’s a collaboration with illustrator/graphic designer MAKI.

      Hi Marco Flavio,

      Oh, the question we always ask ourselves and the answer we never get – oh Azone Y U DO DIS?

      I am right there with you . . . I don’t want both Yuzuhas but it feels so right to have them both in my collection.

      It turns out that the EX-Cute characters are Koron and Chiika. They are a collaboration with illustrator/graphic designer MAKI.

      These lovely girls are heading our way in June (ugh, my wallet is not looking forward to the summer).

    A new Alvastaria? Tooooo Soooon! And those glimpses of Fairy-kei girls >.< . I'm starting to think Azone are on a quest to bankrupt me… which wont do them any favours in the long-run. I wish I could contact them too (with some ideas) but so far, altho' I eventually found an email, I never get a reply 🙁

      Hi John,

      Yes, it’s a new Alvastaria character. And I agree Tooooo Soooon!

      Oh, I like that I’m starting to think Azone are on a quest to bankrupt me

      That sums it up right there . . . That should be Azone’s tagline. On a quest to bankrupt you all (insert evil laughter here) 😉

      If you have ideas that could benefit Azone and their collectors don’t give up.

      I’m sure you’ll find a way to get in contact with the decision makers.

      I know some fans where about to talk to Azone’s Ringo via Twitter.

      Did you email in English text or Japanese?

      They may respond if you contact in Japanese text.

      I hope your wallet can manage to stay strong for the remainder of 2017.

      Judging from the Doll Show 50 images . . . Azone has a lot of irresistible dolls up their sleeves.

        Hello Tatyana 🙂

        Sorry I missed your reply! (forgot to tick box) Oooo! Ta’ for the Ringo-link :D, I might have to get a twitter account, just for Ringo XD, soooo many questions/ suggestions!

        I sent emails in English, I have tried using ‘google translate’ before, but, it doesn’t do a good job with Japanese >.< it just confuses things, so I hoped they'd find a translator. Asking a lot I know, and I realise they are very busy folk with lot's on their mind.

        Katie has just arrived :D. Little cuuuutie :3

        I'm now getting twisted over Iris… ohhhh… 1st ed' 1/3 with 'eyes'… it would be very naughty, but Very Nice!

        Cheers, John 🙂

          Hi John,

          No worries 🙂

          Congratulations on getting Katie.

          I saw a few owner pics of her and she’s more lovely in person.

          I wish you the best of luck in getting in contact with Azone.

          I know they’re in the dolly community looking for awesome talent.

          That’s how Katie’s designer, Ayaka, began working with Azone.

          Azone contacted her and look what happened . . . Katie and Neil.

          But maybe your chance to have your idea heard by Azone will be here before you know it.

          Denise Travers from Japan Doll Connection wrote the following “IF YOU could create an Azone Doll–” on her Facebook, May 10.

          Not sure what it all means.

          Maybe Azone and her are working on getting input from fans & designers outside of Japan.

          If I hear any news I’ll keep you post it.

          Thanks for coming back and chatting with me.

            Thanks for the info 🙂 . I’m hoping now that; as they’re in contact with the states… maybe a more international website may appear too??? Also makes me want to design an ”English Rose” doll and give them a prod, one never knows… 🙂

            (hope the link to my Flickr page works???…um… I’ll put it here too

            Hi John,

            Your Flickr link worked. Thank you for sharing it.

            Your photos are too cute 🙂

            The nature shots are pretty!

            And I liked the dioramas.

            Tatyana
