Looked like she was holding a fishing rod in that one pic

Company makes weird decisions sometimes, to re-release saber alter 3rd time now, when there is already a surplus on the market. Y!J is flooded with the previous releases on sale now.
>>
>>50826426
Is it an anniversary of some kind for Fate? Maybe there's correlation there... they're rereleasing the Ribbon Girl set later this year and that's all I care about right now.
>>
>>50826426
It's based on their customer votes from a year or so back. She's a very popular doll, so I'm not surprised. I am more bummed that they haven't put out a clothing set in a few collections now that's been a hit for me.

Just want the new SDGr outfits. The sculpts look really bland imo

First calendar arrived after being lost in the mail for nearly 3 month. Tracking never updated after reaching Germany and it looks like it somehow never even went through customs. No idea how it got here.
Anyway, since I have two of them now: If anyone here (preferably from within the EU) missed their chance and would like one, let me know, and I’ll set up a temporary email account so you can send me your address.

Has anyone run across a Kasane Teto wig? She has 2 drill shaped curls on each side. I'm trying to decide if I need to modify an existing wig or if there's something off the shelf. Would be for a 1/3 scale bjd.
>>
>>50830893
>drills in 3d
>he doesnt know
sister..
>>
>>50830893
i've seen a couple of teto bjds around so it's possible but it might be a bit harder if you want the synth v version with her weird hair accessory thing
if you want something exact you probably have to look on taobao or commission someone but i do see a couple of ringlet wigs on acbjd that might be similar enough at least until you get something else. getting that exact vibrant shade of red out the box might be the most difficult part
also since when did acbjd become so slow? is it just on my end? it's basically unusable
>>
>>50829253
Glad to hear it finally showed up. But also glad that I had a spare to send sooner. Must have fallen through the cracks somewhere in the processing and transfer.
>>50830893
I swear I've seen this done by someone on youtube or twitter but I can't find it for the life of me. It was even Teto herself.
But also there are a few examples on how to do it.

That's what I was looking for, thanks!
Looks like they started with a long wig and salvaged the cut hair to make the drills.

funny, i also thought of that anon when i saw it but thought that it was too chibi to count

Can anyone ID the skin color of this head? Can't tell if flesh or semi white.
>>
>>50837478
It's really hard to tell from a picture like that. I have dolls in both skin tones, and even when they're next to each other it's hard to tell sometimes depending on lighting. If I had to guess, I'd say Semi-white. But like I said, it's really hard to tell.
>>
>>50837234
Oh, this is cute
Are they doing the dolls other than Stinky?
>>
>>50837234
nta but I have a mighty need. I'm not familiar with this line, what shops regularly carry them?

If those are Azone Picco Neemo, check (maybe email) Amiami.

Anyone have experience with iplehouse bjd?
To be hoesnt I have been kind of disappointed with the bad pose ability of my volks.
And I am looking for another 1/3, I am happy with azone for the smaller ones
>>
>>50845645
I haven't personally, but I've heard good things about their poseability over the years? Someone with more knowledge in resin can hopefully chime in on that front; what I know of mostly pertains to the fuckhuge male dolls, so things may be different for the smaller ones as well.
>>
>>50845645
You're right. The posing ability is quite poor.
I'm not sure about iplehouse being a lot better than volks.
My brand new volks resin bjd dolls poses okay at best, and become progressively worse over the years without re-stringing.
Most resins strung or vinyl dolls have posing issues that needs some mods to improve (leather suede joints, hanger wires).
Some people use multi-pronged arm stands for dynamic poses to take pictures.
>>
>>50845748
Any idea where I can buy those stands? I could use the hell out of those.

You can try these, but I personally think they would still tip over from wind outside.
>>
>>50845852
Just attach some tripod weights, looks like the one in the photo already has screw points for them
>>
>>50845748
Resins are closer to traditional dolls while volk, toys.
>>
>>50847026
What are resin volks dolls then, retard.

Sorry to hear about DoA, now get the fuck out.

I know this is 4chan and most people are permanently single anyway but on the off chance:
Whats the general reaction of woman to owning a bunch of dolls as a guy?

I do own a few dolls and a ton of figurines but I havent really had the opportunity to check.
>>
>>50849635
not sure what answer you're looking for with the way you're leading your question. depends on the type of doll and the type of woman. women generally compliment me when I go out for photos with my MDDs. the ones that stop to chat for a bit about it are either older grannies or women that are also into anime type stuff. they generally naturally recognize that it's different from like going around with a barbie or something

very rarely do I ever explicitly hear anything negative. maybe only in passing every once in a while, but people just leave me alone otherwise
>>
>>50849635
I don't take mine out but my mom says that they're cute.
>>
>>50849725
This legitimately made me smile.
>>
>>50849635
My wife thought they were a sex thing. After I explained they weren't and they're more of a creative outlet she's still not thrilled about them, but she's less weird about them. But I didn't get dolls until after we were married.
>>
>>50849635
depends what kind of dolls and the tastefulness of the clothes and stuff honestly
a slutwear mdd with huge silicon tits? uhhhh
just keep it classy
>>
>>50849635
My father had no problem with them, and most people I meet are, at most, positively curious about what you're doing if you have them out with you. Little old ladies WILL go out of their way to talk to you about their porcelain or reborn collection. People might judge you if they find out how much the hobby costs, but that goes for most hobbies in my experience. Most of all... find someone who support you for you. This isn't a harmful thing, it's a creative outlet, it's harmless fun. If anyone has a problem with it, you likely wouldn't be compatible on a deeper level, either.

So I got one of the Oioi studio blind dolls, doll noob here, and the hair is like super hard to style to where it looks like the pictures
Any tips?
>>
all dolls are toys dumpass doesnt matter how expensive it is
>>
Speak for yourself. My dolls aren't toys, they are family :)
>>
>>50849705
Thats reassuring. I dont mind a few haters but I am quite proud of how cute my dolls are so obviously I want other people to also like them.

>>50849725
Based Mom. My mother and sister think mine are cute too.

>>50849876
Ouch. Thats my main fear with strangers.

>>50849959
God bless little old ladies.

My normal shop for custom hands is currently set to private, and has been for more than a year. They're still selling at conventions, which bums me out, but oh well. Does anybody have any shops they recommend that make custom DD hands? I don't mind using a proxy.
>>
>love at first sight with an unobtainable volks model girl
holy fuck she is adorable
>>
Does anyone have the link for the store selling matching ring sets for yourself and your doll? It's time I let the insanity take me and make it official.
>>
>>50853529
There are Dream Choice proxies if that's where she's locked to. She's precious, I hope you can find her one day! You never know!
>>
>>50849635
Depends but most people wouldn't really care. They might think it's weird or 'huh' for a moment before they focus on something else. The only person that was bothered by my dolls was a guy who get weirded out by anything that's he sees as even slightly weird (almost everything) but most find my dolls cute or pretty when they examine them closer.
The only dolls that seem to bother people are life sized or anything that's closer to human sized. I don't think most BJD owners collect those dolls anyways (not sex dolls btw)

Vinyl supply is totally fucking fucked mate. Big time.
>>
>>50856781
I know resin was fucked for a while. What's up with vinyl? (I don't know anything about industrial supply chains.)
>>
>>50856781
>>50856846
probably because the straight of whoremoos is blockaded and that plastic(vinyl+resin) products are made from refined petroleum products.
>>
>>50856894
Ah. Makes sense. Time to start reconstituting house siding to make dolls, I guess.
>>
>>50856846
Plastic = petro

Second picco Rozen finalized design posted. They were leaked late 2025 but there were some mild changes to the eyes and more, so here they are

Does anybody know if the DOLK collab dolls that have Japanese faceup artists design the makeup, does that faceup artist do the actual makeup on the sold dolls too? Because for the Marin doll that just came out, there are some pretty noticeable differences in owner pictures. None of them look bad, but some of them are off compared to the original. Top left looks really good, while top right is missing a lot of details, bottom photo is the stock doll. I know that the artist Renya passed away after fighting illness for years, so I don't know if it's a matter of she was doing the makeup and some of it looks worse due to health complications and burnout, or if they had to find a new faceup artist after her passing, or if DOLK qc is just like that.

If it's any of the former I understand completely especially because of the circumstances, but if they had other artists from the start then I'm a bit put off from buying any dolls in the future.

There's an (Old) Cocoa Smart Doll on auction right now if anyone's been looking for one, first time I've seen one in about five years.
