Coming out of lurkdom because I realllly wanted to share~
So, my camera is still AWOL and I really haven't had a chance to look for it, lol! But a boy I've waited a LONG time (years) for has finally come home to roost and I really, really wanted to share him, so showing off my really crappy unboxing photos taken with my tablet. I promise for updated photos as soon as I DO locate that camera~ It went missing right after a trip... here's to hoping I didn't officially lose it... ^_^;
For many reasons, either due to finances, family emergencies, or just poor timing, I was never able to purchase my much longed-for Shiwoo. I had always wanted to purchase the full doll brand new with the dreaming vampire head, since my character is a vampire et al. Then I missed purchasing him before the Luts discontinuation. When I would look for him on the second-hand, I could only find full dolls over-priced or floating heads in white skin only. Such was my luck! lol! I finally spied a vampire head, un-modded, normal skin, and nearby that I simply couldn't pass up. I'm reserved about about his state, but I've seen worse~
I still hold out hope his standard will get a re-release at Fairyland, but until then I have a gorgeous vamp in my hands!
Pooooor lighting shows crumpled newspaper wrapping/packaging. Top of package shot.
Inside the newspaper is moar wrapped head (beside package).
Me unwrapping the head, hee~ My hands were totally shaking~
And, here he is, folks!! *_* Isn't he precious? =slowly moves fingers away from very dangerous teethies= And don't you just love how cameras turn all hands, including my tiny ones, into meat palms? whee~
Obligatory up-the-nose shot showing off teethies~ I swear, total reason I wanted the vamp head so much... those blamed teethies! Only the elf head has tiny teethies other than this one.
Tape spot on the top of the head cap... there's more of a color difference than the photos show~ But I do get to see just how pink he used to be~ ^_^
He came with these random drill holes that I can fathom no purpose to, lol~ I'm assuming whoever did the drilling snapped the mech off when drilling, because it's definitely been re-glued, heh.
And that's all I've got so far! I've spent the past week watching a race between my MSC arrival and my Dollmore order~ Wonder what will get here first~ MSC is slated for Monday and oh, but does that feel so far away! Until then, Bríean must remain face-less... =le sigh=
And eyeless and wigless... because I haven't bought either yet... purchasing him was totally a surprise... =flails=
Absolutely MUST find that camera!
