This... is a bit of an odd one, even for me. On 30th June, I went to Glasgow Comic Con, an awesome local con dedicated primarily to comics and showcasing some of the best artists in the UK comic industry. It was a brilliant day, and i had a ton of fun and as always, I came home with books. I also came home with this girl right here:
She is a 1/6 scale Original Effect Teenie Body figure. They also had the Reborn Body which was about 33cm tall and felt a lot heavier, but this girl was sold to be as being easier to be able to clothe and, well, just look at the cuteness of her face:
Frankly, it was the cuteness of her face that sold her to me over the slightly bigger body. She's pretty well articulatled - very reminiscent of an obistu though with nicer looking joints, and height wise... yeah I'd say she's about the same as the hard bust 27cm obitsu - here's a comparison pic with her in her flat feet (sorry it's not the best, I just used whoever was to hand):
I was actually pretty surprised the obitsu dress fitted her so well - she's a bit hip-y compared to the Barbie figure so I will need to go in search of some proper jeans or something for her. Feet wise, she's a lot bigger. I've heard Poppy Parker sized shoes can fit, but I don't have any to test that out.
The big thing I noticed with her, and maybe this is just me, was that she didn't seem all that comfortable in a dress. Now, generally speaking I try to make a basic sheath dress for most dolls who enter my room as it's a simple outfit that can be knocked together pretty quickly. While the purple suited her, she just seemed... a bit ill at ease being in a dress. This kind of strengthened my resolve to get hold of a decent pair of jeans for her.
Putting her in this finally made her seem happy and I'm quite liking the look. Like I said, I'm still aiming to get her jeans, and maybe some sneakers, but for now we're both content with how she looks. Name wise... I keep getting Shiori coming to mind. I think it might be her name.
... I am tempted to get that reborn body though...
