1/3 Telesthesia Dolls

@xinwang Thanks for the new thread! It's now in the mini forum:
/threads/telesthesia-dragon-new-msd-body.875532/

 

Congrats on your order! The dolls pose good and the resin is nice and smooth. I have two FeiHuaDeng girls at home, as well as a XunYiChao, and a Long TianQi.

 

@IzabethS Thank you! I'm really excited about them.

 

Yay!! So exciting!! I have also recently placed my first Telesthesia doll order. Have you by chance come across of any unboxing/gallery photos of Mei Jiuqi? I haven't been able to find any in this thread but am curious about what the company faceup and/or 75cm v.2 body looks like in hand

 

The new 75cm body is like pretty new so I don't think anyone has it yet

 

There is a person that goes by Andelpham on Vinted that has him, uses him as a wig model to sell their wigs. And WakWak_BJD on instagram has him (at least his head) as well.

 

Thank you! I really appreciate it

 

Does anyone have a reference image of the 62 cm body? I have been looking everywhere for a picture of it and I can't find anything! I'm dying cuz the new 68 cm body v 2 is so pretty but it's not the right size for my migidoll to hybrid (( I'm hoping the 62 is closer?

 

There's a new Telesthesia guy up on Alice's Collections.

Detective - Zuo An, 75cm Telesthesia Boy - BJD, BJD Doll, Ball Jointed Dolls - Alice's Collections

 

Does anyone have any reviews or just opinions on the new elbow joints? Are they that different/worth upgrading from an older TD body?

 

I have the new 72cm body and I like the split elbow joint, it's easy to manipulate for dressing and stuff. I will say I love my telesthesia boy but he's a loud lad, very creaky, just to keep in mind.

 

Just droppin' a pic of FeiHuaDeng (still gorgeous, can confirm that TD white resin doesn't fade too quickly). I still need to order her pink eyes, these ones are just stand-in until I do. They're 14mm small iris from SoulInABox on Etsy, but pink and maybe a size up will suit her better.

 

I have the 72cm body too and it poses like a dream. It can be a tad bit on the squeaky side, especially on the knees for mine, but I'll take the squeaks as part of his overal charm

 

I'll have to check this body out - my WeiYuiJin is on the older body. It's not my favorite of bodies, but I think Jack arrived on the 2.0 68cm body which is considerably better. (He was originally ordered on the 72cm body, but his parcel got lost in Chicago customs and never resurfaced, so the dealer re-ordered him and he arrived in the right pink resin but on the 68cm body - which Kalli and I ended up liking better!)

 

Your girl is gorgeous!! She's got the default faceup, right?

 

Thank you! Yes, and it's held up very nicely since her arrival, though I haven't taken her outdoors for photos.

 

It’s very pretty! It’s fun to see how different my two girls are compared to yours, she looks so soft and gentle

 

My Xiao Bei is being shipped to me after almost exactly 5 months of placing the order. Can't wait for him to be here

 

He's here now so I thought I'd post photos, especially as I couldn't really find any of this specific body. My Xiao Bei is on the 62 cm body in pink colour.

Spoiler: Closer photo of the head

He came with 3 magnetic penises which I wasn't expecting

I didn't order jointed hands as I thought I wouldn't enjoy posing them for photos at all, I hope I won't regret it. I haven't done much with him yet beyond checking if everything is fine and testing posing a bit but so far I'm really happy.

 

He's so pretty! It's also really nice to see blank owner pics, so thanks for sharing them!

 

Mizz Immature back and curious if anyone has the 85 cm Strong Boy body and the 83 cm Male-Mom body.
I am wondering who has the bigger moobs.

 

Had a poke around today and realized Telesthesia's 68cm ver. II body has the same shoulder width and neck size as the older 72cm body, so I may see about updating my WeiYuJin in the nearish future. I'm just not a fan of this body, which was available at the time I ordered him. The hips like to kick forward, his bits fall off (lol, I know, but they will at the slightest excuse to do so) and the wrists/hands/feet just aren't my jam. I absolutely love his face and ears, though! So, new body and solve some issues 'round here, I figure.

Edit: if anyone has this ver. II body, how are the hips? And how do you like it, overall?

 

It's really new so I don't think anyone has it yet, I plan to get it at some point for a hybrid so once that happens I could tell you lol

 

I got Du Xiaoju today! He looks even better in life than in photos. That smile is so goood. I think he is a first of my dolls which looks happy. I got joined hands too, they are all right. He also got a bag of dicks :O Someone here posted they got 3, I got 6 or something lol.
Here is with Xaga Doll Ash both wearing iplehouse wigs and clothes I made. Resin color is so close btw, I can safely say you can hybrid Xaga dolls and Telethesia.

 

Christina at Clover Singing has listed some of TD's new bodies (TD is currently running an event sale, and Christina offers free shipping to most regions). They can be found here, as well as any others in their TaoBao shop (she can do an order for).

 

ACBJD is offering the 83-cm Male-Mom Boy body for sale, too.
I am NOT spending $500, just because it's funny.
I am NOT spending $500, just because I think he's hilarious.
No! No buy!
someone stop me from spending $500 on a body cuz I think it's funny...

 

LOL! I love this!

 

I just ordered Ye Youxin on the 74 cm boy body and I've added the wig as well,he's going to be my Sephiroth,now I need to find a cloud

 

I finished styling my Xiao Bei for now and took a couple of pictures

Spoiler: More pictures

I like him quite a bit. I didn't realise the sculpt has an open mouth though and I think I would have preferred if it was closed. He has some tiny sculpted teeth which look really cute. It was very difficult to paint them but I managed to do it with great effort

The body is gorgeous too. The chest joint is great but I'm not sure about the elbows and knees. Maybe I just haven't discovered the trick to it yet but I think he can't touch his face and can't kneel. I'm not super bothered as I never put my dolls in intricate poses but it might be a problem for others.

 

So 2 months ago ordered "Young Actor Du Xiaoju". Now I'm wondering for clothing what sizing is his body the:
TD 72cm Boy Body Ver.II comparable with?

(It will probably still take 3+ months before shipping? But already very excited )

 

I have the v2 and I think shirt wise idelian 75 clothing fits perfectly I still need to figure out pants though

 

AH ID75 works?! Thats great cause i already have ID75 patterns. I used those to create RGMBody-5 (ring doll) patterns. So, if ID75 is quite similar I can use those to also make TD v2 patterns n_n thanks!

 

I've been searching around without luck.
Has anyone seen an irl example of the non-SP Wei Yue Jin? Like the human open eyed or the fox sleeping versions?

 

I've tried 70cm Theodore clothes (looser cutting) and 73cm clothes meant for Loongsoul and they're pretty ok too! Just make sure you check the measurements as I've got some pants that came waaay too loose and I might need to alter or size down to 70cm

 

My Du Xiaoju head came back from the faceup artist and I am finally glad to share some WIP pics of him cosplaying as Rafayel from Love and Deepspace~

The smiley sculpt is adorable!

(Edit: It seems like I am unable to remove the broken link image for some reason and adding the photos from both google photos and flickr has been really unsuccessful so here's the link to the photo - Duxiaoju)

 

Du Xiaoju is so much more versatile than I expected. He’s gotten bumped to the top of my acquisition list.

I saw your guy on the artists’ page and loved how he turned out really nice to see him home!


Also wanted to ask if anyone is aware of whether TD white is close to DollZone white.

 

Aaaaaaa thank you so much! The artist was an absolute pleasure to work with and he comes with my highest recommendations! There's some subtle details that he painted that is unfortunately not captured on my camera and i'm just kinda sad about that...

But either way I hope to learn how to pose and capture him better that makes him look more true to his in game character and personality

 

he looks amazing! the artist did a great job!

 

my telesthesia boy arrived last Saturday he's still without a face up and temporary wig/pants but I'm very happy with him.
I wasn't expecting him to come with extra ''private'' parts me and my friends had a good laugh about that

 

My Du Xiaoju got his faceup done by Bunny Faceup

And although he is still waiting for his wig and he is wearing other doll's wig that is completely different from the one he will have, I can't resist to shoot a pic and share, he is so cute.

 

Posting this in case anyone else decided to spring for Moob Man 83 or 85 (the 83 or 85 cm male bodies):
The feet are HUGE.
The length and width measurements aren't enough for the shoes. There's also a height element (from bottom of foot to top). So the length and width may be correct, but the toe box (the area where the toes go) is too small.
A partial listing of every shoe I've purchased that hasn't fit:
All shoes labeled "BIG" at Alice's Collections (ACBJD):
SH320 Big
SH342 Big
BT323 Big - BUT the toe box is almost big enough. Add a couple millimeters to the length and the width, and they'd be a perfect, snug fit around the feet. Unfortunately, the leg portion is also a little too small.
I also tried these from AliExpress because the seller has helped me find unusual doll shoe sizes before. The measurements are good, but the toe box is much too small.
Folks have recommended the Luts Grand Senior 78 Delf (GSDF) shoes. I'm thinking I'm going to have to ask someone to measure over the foot - from the inside to the outside.

Probably going to have to learn to make shoes, eh?
I don't wanna

Editing to add: no, I don't think GSDF shoes would work. However, Royal Senior Delf feet? Are an almost perfect match.

 

My Sephiroth has a face! currently looking for a different wig for him

 

He looks good, can’t wait to see him with a different wig

 

Thank you

 

As promised,Sephiroth with his new wig, I love him so much right now,the expensive wig is totally worth it!

 

Hi, guys! Has anyone received a doll or just a body of a 68cm boy Ver.II ? I wonder how tall the doll actually is. It looks like the boy might be shorter than 68cm, but may be I'm wrong. Can anyone help me out and give any info on the doll's real height?

 

Wow, the new guy Xiao Ling looks gorgeous.
I've been planning to order a 72cm ver. 2 body on this year's Chinese new year event, but I think I will go for a full doll instead and order Xiao Ling, hehe. His face is beautiful.

 

Super Rider Lacy stole Ah Fu's clothes (85 cm moob man) - and yes, I'm getting the scaled down version (Mini Moob Man):

Telesthesia & Dragon Lacy

 

OK, post two:
Yes, I have been giggling over Lacy, and I will admit I bought him almost solely for the tee hee hee factor.

However, now that I've been dressing him and stuff, I have some thoughts:
SOLID stander and sitter. You put this fellow in a pose, and he locks into place.
T&D has swivel joints in his elbows (aaaaaaaaand in the 69 cm v.2 female body, aaaaaaaaand it's on sale).
Oh, and T&D will sell the outfits separately. They have a new Catgirl Killer outfit, and so tempted. (I'll be honest - I want the whole doll.)

Here's a pic of the joint straight on:

T&D 85-cm Super Rider - Lacy

Pics of Lacy's elbow articulation in spoiler. Considering he is supposed to be a beefcake, the elbow bend makes perfect sense - a human with arms that large would have somewhat limited flexion too, I think?

Oh, and the clothing is pretty freaking great. Zippers, tiny clear plastic snaps, velcro, soft shiny fabrics - I'm loving T&D dolls.

One last thing: When I requested to order the Qin Yan outfit and another set of jointed hands, T&D gave me multiple, multiple options for both - what body size did I want? 85, 83, 78, 72, or 68 cm? Version one or two?

 

Yeah their jointing is on point, I want to get their 68cmv2 boy body for one of my heads. Plus the new 68cm female doll is hopefully going to be my boyfriend's Fujiko doll.

 

My Du Xiaoju, finally fully dressed and in his own wig(i have posted earlier in this thread pictures where he is in borrowed wig and clothes from other dolls and also unpainted). I love his smile the most, it looks mysterious, like he knows some secret, T&D sculptor and the face up artist that painted him(bunny face up) really worked some magic.

He's gorgeous!

 

What a beauty!

 

He looks mysterious and serene like an oriental god. How fascinating!

 

Yeah! Du Xiaoju does have a serene, monk like quality to him. I actually plan to get him some traditional style clothes as well

Here is couple more photos(i cant stop taking pics XD), with less and more dressing up, he has different vibes in both, even more serene with less.

I have the MSD versin of Du Xiaoju and I love him! Maybe I should get him a big twin!

 

Oh, I want a msd version of him. He is such a great sculpt, I saw a few people turning him into mischievous kinda party guy and it works great on him as good as a calm, serene look, if I get one I will go that route, his little twin gonna be his headache

 

May I recommend him on this body?

 

Those moobs are very tempting, but I feel it will be hard for big Du Xiaoju, he will feel too inferior compared to his little problem twin with such peak male form

 

Mine is on the 50cm special body.
