Surprise!Doll Family A Yanji arrived today (Surprise as in he was going cheap on DOA, but then shipping took an age so I forgot all about him...) :D

I've fallen head over heels for the sculpt already, but I can't work out what to do with him... He's got such sharp features! He's got big sticky-out ears - which are adorable! Eek He seems to be able to take 14-18mm eyes quite happily, I'm liking the iris size of 14 best but there's a little gapping. Not sure what body I'll go for - maybe a Fantasy doll 69cm, or maybe a Doll Family 63cm...

I'm kinda thinking stereotypical male bjd that is ridiculously girly since I don't really have one of those yet... (Jerome doesn't really count, it's complicated) But I'm not sure... Hmm thinking long pink wig maybe, hell he could be a friend of Jerome's/Drax's on the club scene completely unrelated to the main (unpleasant) backstory/plot around Jareth and the parallel adventures of Drax. Hmm maybe he'll have meetings with Havelock, since Havelock by necessity is unrelated to anything plot-related too... Oh dear!

::rolls around:: My first Volks SD will be here on Tuesday. I always thought that I would never own one, but thankfully it seems that a lot of older style dolls have been going out of style lately and so prices on older Volks and CP Delf's seem to be dropping. :D She's on my list of "grail dolls I never thought I would own" But I am very excited to have her! <3

Arrgh~! It's been two months plus one day since I ordered my two 1/3-scale dolls from Mirodoll. They'll be my first dolls bigger than 1/6-scale, and I've been looking forward to them so much. They have a fine array of wigs and eyes waiting for them. I'm looking forward to sewing for them as I think I'll be far more comfortable working at the larger scale. It's been 26 days since I e-mailed Mirodoll about their status and was told they were in stock but waiting for face-ups. They offered to send them to me immediately and refund the face-up cost, but I'm not confident yet in my ability to do face-ups myself. But I'm getting so impatient now... :?

She's here! Now if only it would stop raining so I could actually take some nice photos of her!

Is that a fer she's wearing?? Congrats Almy!!

I picked up Bailey's (my MNF Shushu) new body yesterday (Carly, my Unoa Sist, stole her old one) and my MNF Chloe's body arrived today, along with her wig. I'm afraid her head will be too late to take with me to Dolliverse, but we'll see.

Also, today arrived my Peppermint's wig.. and tomorrow my Peppermint will finally arrive!!

So yay, my BlissBJD Micro is in the country! I strongly suspect she'll be delivered tomorrow, if not I'll have to wait until after the weekend.

And in other news, the two AoD bodies I was waiting for that I forgot to tell anyone about have come home! My Elfdoll heads now have bodies!
