Long story short, this is basically a 'grail' doll, I've been wanting one since '08.
Never ever did I think that I would have seen one for sale on the marketplace for a very good price. With a face-up! All I can say, is thank you Buff. Thank you so so much.

I was not expecting to get another doll anytime soon, so please forgive. The only spare eyes I had were some awful rainbow ones. I really dislike these eyes, they came as a free gift. xD I also had no wigs that were his size! He's wearing a large 7-8. haha

with my sezz; oh he actually looks a little happy at the idea of a new friend. I swear, he always looks so pathetic! Mr. Emopants is very emo indeed!

I know he looks terrible (well really they both do! No bodies! Crappy hair and eyes!); but I'm just so happy to have him.
A Bernard? I have a Dollshe Bernard (head LOL)! :D

I think repositioning his left eye would do part of the trick lol! He looks a bit... 'lost' now. Lol! But he has a cute face!

Oh lol they are crooked aren't they? xD; I'm terrible.

The hairs and eyes are serving their purpose until I find the right kind. haha

Just wait until you have a body their size and they think they each should be using it! floating heads can have lots of personality! Will you be looking for a Dollshe body? Or will you put him on another one? And if the wig fits, don't worry about size. The Dollshe boys heads are slim, and I have known lots of dolls to end up with wigs you never believe would fit.

Congratulations!!

Actually... they aren't going to have regular bjd bodies. My sezz had a dollzone body, but I have terrible wrists; I have carpal tunnel and doctor thinks I may have the beginning signs of arthritis... It's hard for me to pose the larger bodies comfortably or easily with out my wrists popping (? I don't know what to call it) all the time.

They are going to have a soft plush body with a hard torso and hands. They are still going to be poseable because they have wires going through them. But they will be tons lighter and hopefully you won't know the difference when they are clothed.

My Sezz already has his body almost complete, it should be done within this week or so. : )

Yeah for plush bodies! Clothes does make a difference. Rio has a plush body about the only thing I have trouble with is his neck showing. So I have him wear turtlenecks and scarves.

Ahhh! Are you this person:

That's where I got the idea from! xD haha thank you!
To solve the neck issue, I'm using some modded obitsu torso/chests that I got off of the marketplace very cheap. One of the male torso pieces I got has a little pencil neck so I'm going to built up the neck with milliput. The other torso I got (it's different than the other one, it's squishy! and a different sculpt...) is just fine, the neck is just a little short. So I glued in a small scrap of felt to make his neck taller. xD
