Figured I should make a thread for these little cuties since a few of us have them now. (A BIG thank you to Qrinta for helping us get these little cuties)

I took some pictures of the building process in case anyone wanted to see. The Ashes is mine and the two Violets are my mom's. We just put them together yesterday and it was quite fun.

Ta-Da! All put together!
Image

Now time for his sisters...

Ashes wanted to oversee the production of his siblings.
Image

He was very helpful :roll: He decided towards the end that he didn't want sisters because then he'd have to share all his food.
Image

Eventually I got his sister's head back ;) And put the girls together. My mom did the purple one. I'm so proud of her! :lol: She said she was sweating by the end of it because the pieces were so small and some of them were hard to put together.

I found the wings to be a bit hard to put in.
Image

On both Ashes and the pink Violet, I had to use quite a bit of force to get them in and slightly bent the wings. Now there's some white where there was strain on them. If that makes sense. I tried to take a photo of it.


Anyway, overall these little dragons are SO worth it. They are super cute and fun to put together. I can't wait for more colors to come out! (And warmer weather so I can actually paint mine)

Feel free to post your little dragons here. I'd love to see them!

I just tried to induce my husband into putting my Ash together, but one look at the string and he handed the box back to me with "Have fun!" LOL! :lol:

LOL!! It's not as bad as it seems. I was a little weary of it too but it was super easy.

My daughter and her partner decided to take on the challenge. I told her if she could put Ash together, she could have him and that was all it took! :D She agreed, there's no way to really work with the wings without causing the white stress "bruise".

Yeah, it seems pretty difficult to not "bruise" the wings. Maybe if we used some kind of tool to push them in?

I think it's more of an issue that Aileen Doll needs to resolve.

I love my little purple one, and there was a resin one at the doll meet on the 30th! They compare very favorably. The resin has a bit more detail, but otherwise they are the same!

Just got my little pink Violet and put her together. Now I just need to paint them but it's still way too cold to spray them so that will have to wait. :(
