Orient Hero Series

Also known as the "Legendary Series". At the start of Volks' doll launch, they offered a boxed doll kit called the Orient Hero series. These dolls are made of a hard urethane resin (the same material as Super Dollfies). It came with a set of instructions and you had to cut, drill and glue your doll together. The head that was included was also urethane so you could not add hair to it, only put a wig on. The skin tone was a pale creme color and the doll was a little heavier and fragile than the regular plastic Excellent Series. The doll comes in a white box with pink candy cane stripes on it with a halographic Volks seal on it. These dolls are still available, but are rarely ever seen. The price of a Orient Hero kit ranges from $50 upwards.

I am not sure how many different kinds were available for certain. When they first came out, there were 6 of them: A through F. I had a Mirage F, which was a mini size, but have since sold it, to my dismay. Here is a glimpse of the instructions that came with it.
I currently have no photos on file to post. If you have images of a Mirage kit (boxed, built or unbuilt) and would like to share with me, please contact me through Yahoo Messenger. ID: eight_mint
