Does anyone know...?

Does anybody know if it is possible to put a Jun Planning Hestia head onto an Obitsu body with minimal modification/effort on my part?

My boyfriend got me a Jun Planning Hestia for Christmas/Valentine's day (the adorable "wolf" Isora, yay!). I'd admired her for a while and was definitely very impressed with her outfit and sweet looking face when I opened her up. But then, I got her home and her poor little hand had cracked off. I'm not terribly attached to the Jun Planning body. I find it squeaky and hard to pose, and the hands and feet are annoyingly small. So I was like, "Hey! An Obitsu body would fix these problems!" However, I'm not an "Obitsu person" (as in, aside from playing with my boyfriend's 27cm one, I don't know much about them and don't own one) and wouldn't want to buy a body unless I knew it would be useful for what I want it for.

So I guess my two questions are 1) would the neck pieces that come with an Obitsu body allow me to attach the Hestia head, and 2) what body would you suggest if I wanted to be able to still use her adorable outfit? (not the stockings and boots, as I'm not very attached to them either). I was thinking a 27cm small bust normal skin Obitsu...?

If I recall correctly someone on here said not too long ago that it was possible but hard to do. Something about getting their heads off is difficult? They tend to break when you try?

I think you would either have to cut the obitsu neck nob to fit or take out the eye mechanism and just hold the eyes in with putty. I did a quick search and found a tutorial for you:

As for the size, it looks like it depends which pullip body you have. It looks like the pullip type three is very close to the 27cm obitsu.

If you want to wait long enough we can try fitting her on Little Lacey's old body. I'm getting her a new one.

Also, what are you gonna name her?

I don't know what I'll name her, she hasn't "spoken" to me yet. Once she finds her voice, I guess I'll go ahead and figure out her name and personality. ^.^*

But anyway, Lacey's old body won't be able to fit the Hestia clothes.

That's true, the Hestia doll can't really be busty now can she :P
