V.large box

Image
Cocooned in cushions...

Image
Guessing these are the jointed hands I asked for

Image
Bubble-wrap mummy! (Multiple - I had no idea Dikadoll sent extra hands!)

Image
Extra wraps on all of his joints

Image
Pretty close resin match
Havelock: "I'm sure the wizards are involved in this somehow..."

Image
ALL of the hands!

Image
All put together - not entirely sure if his neck needs shortening or not?

Image
Cobbled together outfit... Methinks there has been an incident on a par with the Leshp debacle... And don't even ask His Lordship about the hair! *cough*dye!*cough*

Image
Having a bit of a sit

Suffice it to say Drax is not happy that this upstart has a body before he does... And is even less happy about lending out his clothes!

Live with the neck a while before shortening it, it does give him that long lanky look.

Thanks yeah - I think I've already gotten used to it!

Loving the engineering of this body - I was a bit scared that he'd be unposeable with all of those torso joints; but he holds all of the positions I can put him in really well!

He's also the 1st bjd I've got with jointed hands and he can sit with his leg held up (which I tried to show) which as far as I know most stung dolls can't do without just pulling the joint out of the socket.

He can even stand in those terrible boots! - they look lovely but they just allow so little of the foot to touch the ground they're unusable

He's currently on my desk in the bizarre get-up shown above... I'm imagining a scenario where it's not safe to be Lord Vetinari in Ankh-Morpork at the moment, so he's under the protection of Rosie Palm and has temporarily become a Gentleman of Negotiable Affection *hemhem* but all the while he's manipulating events as usual (Possibly Drumknott becomes his first unwitting customer!)

Actually he and Nyta make a surprisingly fun looking pair with him dressed the way he is... As though they're both out of v.different club scenes...

Igor will have him fixed in no time.

Not sure why but his lordship without his wig reminds me of Ben Kingsley.

Tehee! I noticed that too... Hopefully I'll be able to unsee it eventually, currently I'm thinking Ben Kingsley in a bad wig
