Volks has announced they will be releasing a Dollfie Dream version of Saber Lily from the Playstation 2 fighting game Fate Unlimited Codes. Volks had previously released Fate/hollow ataraxia Saber and as Saber Alter back in 2008 and 2009 respectively. Both dolls are still currently highly sought after by collectors and are commonly sold on Yahoo Auction for over $1500 USD. The head sculpt appears slightly different from the previous versions noticeably the lack of the baby on the cheeks, a pointier chin, and some makeup blush applied.
She will be released on December 12, 210 at Volks' Dolls Party 24 and interested buyers should expect some high competition as this Dollfie will be another lottery item exclusive. Note that she will probably retail for around $1000 USD. Keep an eye on Volks' International page and for Americans, keep an eye on Volks USA website for lottery details. Leaked pictures had surface earlier on Thursday this week on 2chan which we have included inside. You can also find more photos on the official product page.
UPDATE: Added more official photos released, official product page added.
