Just revealed on tokidoki's blog - Pullip Super Stella and Dal Vendettina will be sold at SDCC 2014!
This is the first time a convention-exclusive Pullip is a tokidoki collab. Also the first time we have a tokidoki x Dal doll.
Unfortunately, according to the blog only 250 dolls were made! Hope there's a chance of getting them from other sources... and at reasonable price!

Newcomer Pullip Violetta hanging out with other tokidoki friends this weekend. ^__^
Wife and I ordered Pullip Violetta "Special Version" from Groove's online store and she arrived today!
Beginning of 2014, Groove announced their second Pullip x tokidoki collaboration doll - Lunarosa
Not happy to rest on that, Groove has gone one up with their just-announced 3-way collab doll with Pullip, tokidoki and now Hello Kitty!
Presenting... Pullip Violetta!
During Doll Carnival 2012, Groove launch their first collaboration with the tokidoki brand - Pullip doll Luna. She must have been a success, because this year 2014 we will get another tokidoki Pullip!
Groove has released photos of her on their blog, and also her name - Lunarosa!
Groove has announced another DC comic character as their San Diego Comic Con (SDCC) 2013 exclusive doll, and it is none other than SUPERGIRL!
May the Force (Fourth) Be With You... Always
The Doll Carnival 2012 was held on 16 December, but Groove only start selling tokidoki Pullip Luna on 19 December onwards. Good thing wife and I were still in Tokyo, so on that morning we headed back to Matsuya Ginza to get her. Here are more photos from that day.
The new dolls that were sold only at Matsuya Ginza.
My wife has uploaded the photos we took from Doll Carnival 2012 to her Flickr and you can view the full set here. I will post some highlight photos below.
This photo is not of a doll! It is a life-size (well, about 140cm) Pullip Pere Noel at level 1 of Matsuya
Ginza shopping mall. Lots of shoppers were taking photos with her.
Wife and I were privileged to be holidaying into Tokyo when Pullip Luna was launched on 19 December at Groove's Doll Carnival. My wife is a huge tokidoki fan, so Luna is definitely a must-get doll for her!
Usually we don't bother to keep the doll boxes, but Luna's has cute tokidoki characters all over! We'll be keeping this one.
Wife and I attended the Groove Doll Carnival again this year, but this time it is different from previous years. Instead a one-day event on its own, this year the doll exhibition is on display for several weeks at Matsuya Ginza department store.
Groove had a lot of dolls on sale there, old and new, including the popular re-releases like Regeneration Pullip Paja, 10th anniversary Cinnamoroll Dal, and the Dal 6th anniversary Jouet. Some special dolls were also released at the event like Pullip Pere Noel (Matsuya Ginza 2012 Christmas promotional model), Pullip Rche (Doll Carnival 2012 exclusive), Taeyang Hide, Pullips Nanette, Princess Knight and tokidoki Luna.
When I first saw the preview pics of Pullip Harley Quinn, I knew I wanted her. But the fact that she's a comic con exclusive, and limited to only 400 pieces (according to Groove's website) I didn't dare to habour much hope. Thankfully I managed to get her!
I'm supposed to be posting a review and photos of my newest Pullip doll, but this latest doll news from Groove takes precedence. Wife and I like Pullips dolls and tokidoki apparels (and their characters too!) So what happens when Groove announce a tokidoki x Pullip crossover doll? We die-die must get!
Introducing... tokidoki collaboration Pullip Luna!
Guess who? Bah, it's a dead giveaway LOL
I will post a review on her soon!
Continuing their series of DC characters, Groove will be releasing another one this month: the villainess Harley Quinn!
Groove Inc has announced another reissue of a previous released doll. This time it is Cinnamoroll Dal! As this year is the 10th year anniversary of the Cinnamoroll character from Sanrio, Groove will commemorate this by reissuing Cinnamoroll Dal with some new clothes and accessories.
"HOLY GROOVE DOLLS, BATMAN!"
Groove has just announced their San Diego Comic Con (SDCC) 2012 exclusive dolls. They are Pullip Wonder Woman and Taeyang Batman!
Our resident Lego fangirl - Sanae - is also enjoying the Lego Avengers sets. Here she 'assembles' her favourite superheo team.
Yes I know Cap is missing. Who knew the smallest Avengers set (6865: Captain America's Avenging Cycle) would be the hardest to find? >__<
Groove's announcement of the latest Regeneration Pullip is a wonderful surprise. It is Pullip Paja! A bigger surprise? She is slated to be released in June 2012... which is THIS MONTH!
Dunno how Groove managed to keep this news under wraps until now.
