If anyone has any pics of their resinsoul or bobobie 60cm guys I'd love to see them please!

The pics on the sites don't seem to do the dolls any justice and I'd love to see the various things that can be achieved with different face-ups. (I.e. I was saving for gang, but discovered apollo and weylin... and now have no idea at all who to aim for :oops: )

Here's an Apollo from a couple of years ago:

This is a Weylin, but it's probably not going to help you as he's been flocked in fur, but still, maybe you can see beneath all the fur to the sculpt underneath....

Thanks again! (Eek I'm now really torn about who to get, weylin seems to be a really sweet sculpt, kind of innocent looking. And apollo looks so much nicer in these photos than on the site. Hmm I think I'm going to have to think about the character I'm planning on a bit more, and which sulpt suits him the best)

This is Llyr, my Bobobie Weylin:

This is when he still had the default face-up, which is sweet but not quite what I had in mind....

But after an eye-change and a stunning 'makeover' by Kikichan:

MUCH more sass and personality. (I think he picked up some of his attitude from Omi....)

It's true that Apollo always looks much better in member's photos. Wonder why that is.
Here's a not-great shot of my Gang, Alexei.

wow - that weylin looks so different!

Hmm yeah I've narrowed it down to either weylin or gang now (thanks guys! I know they're both rather different sculpts... )

Actually does weylin have the newer double jointed body, or are they selling him on a single jointed one? (I know it wont make much odds since the posing on these dolls is a bit notorious but I was wondering about the slight price difference)

As far as I know, Weylin has the older body (same body as Apollo). The biggest difference between Weylin and Apollo is that Weylin has pointed ears.

HOWEVER, next time Emory has an open special order for Bobobie/Resinsoul (probably in few months, since he just had one before Christmas), you could request any combination of body/head you wanted. (check neck circumferences, but they should be reasonably close).

Weylin's knees are double-jointed. He's sort of got a double-joint in the elbow, but it doesn't hold a tight pose, it's a ball instead of a oblong peanut. Overall, he has a slightly chunkier body than Gang and the newer boys. Still, he really is very adorable. (not that I'm biased or anything... :D )

Heheh! Thanks! I might just do that - I may have saved enough by then (problem is, as with all funds, as soon as I save up a large amount, something unexpected comes up... )

Hmm I still can't quite decide which sculpt to go for, there are some lovely photos of a gang done up as sherlock that made me go woah - since it wasn't anything like what I'd have thought you could manage with him... But weylin manages to be ridiculously expressive just by changing the camera angle it seems!
