Never had any quality issues with mine if that's what you're asking about. If you mean how close to the character they represent, well that varies between dolls and some are better than others. Don't believe the stock photos of a doll as they are overflowing with hair gel and/or photoshopped to shit and back. Find pictures of real dolls from owners and judge from them.

One of the first things I did when my DD arrived was to have her atop of me with her legs either side of my body so it felt like she was straddling me, and we laid on my bed like that for god knows how long, all while I just stared into her beautiful eyes. I don't regret it one bit, it was a great bonding experience.

I have a dollho, so of course, and why would I regret it? Lewd stuff/Sex is something you do with someone you love deeply. It is an affirmation of deep love, if you will, of course that is nothing to regret.

I love my doll, I would never regret loving her.

ugh, feeling a bit guilty with how much I've neglected my doll lately ;;____;; last time I took a photo of her was back in december and even now it took like 3 hours of dressing her up in different kinds of clothes and trying different poses to come up with something decent.

If anything, I think the price helps justify owning them at least in terms of seeming a bit less creepy, since $500+ dolls are not something a kid could do as a hobby. Thus making them for adults. Where as someone with a bunch of $12 Barbies can't use that argument.

The thing is the point you are trying to make can apply to million other hobbies as well, and hell arguably any hobby is a "waste of time and money" in consideration of using time and money on "more important things".

Some people get irrationally mad when when talking about Azone dolls. I personally think they're just jelly because the Obi50 body has superior flexibility, durability and part replaceability if there is a failure.

Would be nice if there were more open-eye hole Azone heads available pre-painted, as many folks don't like painted-on eyes. I own two of the ~3 open-eye heads that exist.

I guess, the people who judge me for the price tend to not be full-on normalfags anyway so they wouldn't judge anything as "too creepy", though. The price is what makes it...not understandable, to them, since they can't understand why I wouldn't rather spend the money on hi-fi or something.

Possibly dumb question.
Why won't companies make double joints in knees/hips, like volks does in the elbow? I remember Danny Choo saying his dolls have limited poseability in legs cause he doesn't like that slit on the calf, wouldn't adding a hidden joint solve the issue? I guess hips would be a little tricky, but knees are pretty doable.

Placed an order for DD Miku at Mandarake Grandchaos and the Senbonzakura outfit at Complex... Complex invoiced me in 1 day and shipped the next after payment. Grandchaos is on its third day and still no invoice. Bah.

Anyone have experience with Grandchaos? I know Mandarake takes a while in general but I'm curious as to what the average speed is for this branch. I should've just gotten the DD Miku at Complex too and combined EMS but I was thinking the one at Grandchaos was in slightly better condition from the description.

Don't worry about the delay from Grandchaos, especially now that it's the weekend. You'll probably have your invoice late Sunday night or Monday. They most likely need extra time to package the doll because of the size of the box. Also, there are a lot of different parts, and I bet they're making sure everything that is supposed to be included is in the box before they ship it.

Well at least you didn't have to pay out the ass like I did. I just got into them so that means I had to pay markup prices for her... though the weakened yen did pad that pain a bit.

As for Volks USA, isn't it because of the port dispute? I actually ordered Mayu from them, and they shipped next day. Friends ordered some stuff from them too and same thing, shipped next day. I don't think they can do anything right now besides stick their finger up their asses regarding the DD Miku shipments, really.

I stopped by their HQ awhile ago though and they had a DD Miku on display. Oh, so angelic. I fell in love on the spot. I can't wait to receive mines...

Yes. The problem though is that they've required and happily accepted payment even though they've known about the dispute since September. You'd think they'd offer some kind of compensation but then again we're supposed to feel honored to even be able to buy their dolls outside of Japan right?

I used to be super nervous about clothes staining and would only have my dolls wear neutral or light colors but I find that if you wash out excess dye most of the clothing can be used for extended periods of time without staining.

Of course, I do test on a unused body part before using dark colored clothing but being able to even put them on without being worried sick makes me happy.

Mandarake guy here. She finally came. Overnight with DHL.

I gotta learn how to style wigs now, she's high maintenance lol. Her hair's always gonna be all over the place until I get something to keep groups of hair together.

Also, her twin tails are so heavy, they can pull her head down at slight movements. And the wig is super tight to put on. I saw a damaged wig on Mandarake with a clump of hair missing near one of the twin tails. I'm thinking that's the reason why.

You can style miku well with a baby toothbrush (make sure it says SOFT on the package) and a make-it-yourself wig spray (1:10 ratio of fabric softener to water in a spray bottle).

The wig wax is tricky - you may actually want to buy that from Volks. You could use a water-based wig wax made for human hair wigs from a beauty supply store, but I would worry that the consistency may not be correct.

Check if her head is properly attached, you might need to push it further. My Miku came with a loose head and it was always kinda hard to push it deep enough. The hair still weighs her down, but only a little.

My Miku never had that ahoge-ish strand of hair and I can't figure out if my wig is defective or if I'm just retarded. She has a longer strand of hair on that side but it's under the rest of the hair, it's really hard if not impossible to bring it to the top. Maybe I'm wrongly assuming that's the wisp they're talking about.
Either way I can't wait until I get her a shorter/less fancy wig, this one looks really cool but is kinda a pain to keep.

Agreed.

>I think the metal coolcat ones are a lot better but don't have any personal experience with those.

The coolcat stands are very good, not too obtrusive while providing good support. The metal Volks stands are solid but bulky. The dollfieworld stand is solid, has a tripod mount but is also quite bulky.

Personally I prefer the Selen stand with the clear acrylic base, it's tricky to get outside of Japan though, I got mine from YJA. The Selen stand with the wooden base also has a tripod mount.

What stand you ultimately get depends on a few factors, do you want an thigh stand or a saddle stand? Does the bulkiness of the stand matter to you? Price? Availability?

Pic related, leftmost stand is from coolcat, middle stand is from dollfieworld, rightmost stand is from Selens.

the idea 4chan has about what is and isn't Autism is a joke, for sure. And I even kind of find it funny. Like yeah, you're a bunch of socially inept guys who love inanimate objects - sure, that's not common in a lot of places but you're doing it because you learned about it from the internet. (Also nothing wrong with this.)

However, actual Autism is a thing. My friend's brother has it, and he was uncapable of learning English or any other language, even Sign language, he has severe trouble with. Everything else he can do. He's in his twenties and has to live in a care taker type home. He's an extremely happy person who speaks some kind of gibberish, like he makes noises and he bobs his head, but he's completely incapable of communication and his family visits him often and he is capable of recognizing them.

So yeah, Autism does exist, and sure it's funny, but I think very few people on this site actually know anything about it other than high functioning Autism, which seems more rare than anything else.

Well, I dont exactly have a mattress. I a a bunch of old blankets from a thrift store that I folded and wrapped together, then I wrap that in normal bedding and sleep on it.

Is it a reasonable course of action to buy doll parts and slowly build her? The body being the last part (most expensive). Or is that a bad idea?

>> No.13189867

>>13189748

My friend recently went through the same thing with buying parts. You're better off buying a Base standard complete from Volks international so you get to bully the now weak yen. I think it's $470 shipped right now for a base. And then just build off of that. You won't have to worry about face-up either.

If you buy in parts, parts are not always available and where they are, they're expensive as shit. My friend had to pay $100 to complete his DD with shins, when they're only supposed to be $50 (had to buy them off a reseller cause Volks didn't have any). And you'll be incrementally raped by shipping costs, not to mention waiting for them to slowly come in the mail. It sucks having an incomplete doll and not knowing when you can finish it. You might lose motivation/commitment too.

That's my opinion.

There are dicks everywhere. As long as you enjoy your dolls, be happy.

I find that /jp/ and /toy/ are about the only doll communities I can stand. Reddit isn't too bad either, the BJD subreddit also has <1000 subscribers and isn't super active.

Nothing new, last year they had a 6 month stretch with hardly any parts/etc, and bam semiwhite skin MDD.

Fun fact: Their actual physical stores have plenty of parts in stock, had a friend pick up 2 complete MDD bodies in parts in the Osaka store for me.

Whatever size she came with.

Also, smaller busts are easier to find clothing for.

Anywhere from several weeks to several months. Try emailing customer service and asking if they know when they're expecting another shipment.

For when you run out: You can make your own by using a 10:1 ratio of Water:Fabric softener in a spray bottle.
