Need some help - Of Obi 50 and DDS elbows and knees

Postby Iwa_Hoshi » Mon Mar 12, 2012 6:49 am

This pic came from Hong Kong Dollism event and a friend would like to know

- What elbows is Gundam Musume there using? (she's a Dollfie Dream Yuki Morikawa)

- Can a DDS use 50cm's elbows (is modding needed?)
- Can a DDS use 50cm's knees (is modding needed?)

Any help is appreciated.

Those look like friction joints (like obitsu 60cm) as opposed to more standard ball joints.

Looks like modded original Obitsu joints! The non-balljoint variety. The color even looks like Obitsu white.

Definitely looks like 60cm Obitsu double hinge joints.

Right now the DDS has only been made available by Volks as several rather expensive full sets (I'd rather get another Yamato) and individual replacement parts. They have not had the base DDS body for sale. I'm not really interested in buy the the complete DDS doll as "parts" so till Volks starts selling base DDS bodies I can't answer any questions regarding the particulars of the DDS. I have seen pictures (as have most of us) of the DDS skeleton and the "new" parts in the DDS have a very "Obitsu" look to them.
Some of the DD2 and Obitsu 60cm parts can be intermingled. My guy Robbie is a mass of DD2 and Obitsu parts.
