Looking for a Boy (found a doll, thank you!)

MSD, Tonners, or 40cm + (18" range)

I really like your first choice -- Colin looks really nice~ As for skin color, the company sometimes shows comparisons, but sometimes you can find comparisons on places like Flickr (like this). The sad thing is that every camera is different, so if the company doesn't say which skin color it is, it's can get a bit difficult to figure out what is what.

I personally like Bluefairy's smilie faces (I just got a TinyFairy Emilie because of the cute smile), but they look pretty young in comparison to other MSDs and their bodies aren't quite as flexible as most others.

You can also use girl heads on boy bodies. Yanagi-sen has an adorable Dollzone Shoyo (girl head) on an Angel of Dream body.

Nagi was my first doll. I told Kiki-chan78 what look I wanted and she told me what to get. I've seen one or two other Shoyo boys since then. My BBB Espree usually comes on a girl body, but Denver Doll Emporium gladly put the head on a Tony body for me. I don't know if I've seen any other Espree boys. Mixing and matching is one of the great things about this hobby!

My Espree is a boy character on the BBB immature girl body, which is actually basically gender neutral.

Ok, I am becoming obsessed with Colin.
But I have unfortunately been reading on DOA some scary reviews about incorrect faceups and resin defects from Iplehouse.
Is this a risk everyone takes?
The two I have were not brand new so I expected some things wrong-
I want to have the real box opening experience of joy after the torture of waiting :)

I can't speak directly for Iplehouse, as I haven't ordered from them yet, (next one, haha!) but just from what I've read, seen, heard, and experienced myself, it's a risk taken with anything handmade. Human error is what it is. Most times, companies will take steps to fix the mistakes.

Also, just because a doll is second-hand, doesn't mean you can't have a box opening!

If you ever have another doll you want kitty ears for... our Zirconmermaid makes and sells them through Junkyspot.
