2008 Fairyland NaNuRi gift head

Jun 15, 2008

    1. I didn't see a thread here for the summer event SD head, so I thought I'd start one!

      Stock photos of the new 2008 Nanuri from Fairyland:

      I know I'll be getting one of these boys in my order (my first SD, actually) and I'm VERY excited.

      Anyone else going to be receiving one, and any thoughts on him or characters you'll be making from him? I'll be turning him into my "dark lord" character from my original universe. He's going to be FANTASTIC.


      The Database thread for the Nanuri 08 can be found here: http://www.denofangels.com/forums/showthread.php?t=239958&

      Please post up your lovelies if you haven't already!


      Sizing info:
      Eyes- 16/18mm
      Wig- 8" (Some 7-8" are too small, some 8-9" are too large, so it seems like he's a perfect 8" head. Please keep in mind that what company the wigs are purchased from may also effect this number.)
       
    2. I was wondering when someone would create a thread for this chap.
      It kind of amuses me...if he had come out through Luts there would probably be a five-page thread already...but because CP has put the head out through their own FairyLand site, listing him as being for a FeePle body as that is what they sell there (even though the heads are totally interchangable with Delf bodies) he's been pretty much ignored thus far. :|

      I'm definitely getting him. I will be picking up a FeePle body for my NaNuRi 06 head, and depending on how this head looks size-wise, I may end up putting him a Delf boy body instead of a FeePle one. I have no clue who he's going to be yet, but I really like his look. :whee:
       
    3. You know, he looks very similar to my minifee b head. Just the eyes and mouth though. Wish they would sell him as a basic set. I love the sculpt.
       
    4. Its an absolutely gorgeous sculpt and would make a great girl too. Also an adorable fairy if he/she had the pointy ears. The eye shape is just wonderful.

      I can't wait to see what everyone does with this one!
       
    5. Well... FairyLand isn't giving him that much attention themselves. I was at that site, like.. 30 seconds before coming here and seeing this thread, and all I saw were mermaids. :|
       
    6. PsychoticElflet5, Please do not hotlink images that aren't hosted on your own webspace.
       
    7. I agree. XP Which upsets me, because so far Fairyland has had IMPECCABLE service, in my experience at least, and I will definitely be buying from them again, if I can. I guess it's just that they aren't quite as big as Luts yet, although their products are well-known. It'll be nice to know there's at least one other owner on the boards! ^^


      jamie-- Do you mean the make-upped head looks like your Seorin or the blank head? I thought that Seorin had more rounded eyes. ... Ooh! Or do you mean the "original" B-turned-C-head. XD Cause his lips are... different. Very different.

      Lana-- Initially I was going to make him a character with long, pointy ears, because the face would be great for an Elf I have. :wink I can see you are a woman of vision... Lol

      twigling-- Ohhh, sorry! I'll upload them to my photobucket and repost. I was wondering why it had switched to URL. I'll fix it!

      sailorstarsun-- The thing is that Fairyland posted them in the 2008 summer event news post, because their main thing right now IS the Puki mermaid fullsets. ^^ Luts tends to release events and that's what hits their main page, so if you don't browse their news posts, it is possible to miss it.
       
    8. I will have the nanuri 08 head, too~~
      he will probably be my boy's friend (pure friend XDD)
      i will get him a delf body instead of feeple body coz 70cm is too big for me and can't fit in with my kids.
      one thing i want to say too, fairyland customer service is wonderful and i will buy from them again~~ wishing that delf will soon move back to fairyland. dun wanna buy from luts........
       
    9. To PsychoticElflet5: The head I was referring to was the old b head. It was suspose to be Seorin but Fairyland goofed. Only a few people got that head I guess. Anyways, my boy sits next to my pc and when I saw the blank NaNuRi head, I was surprised at how much they look alike. The eyes definately look alike, the lips are very similar not exact. My boys bottom lip is a bit larger like he's pouting. He's so sweet!
       
    10. Completely agree with this - loved the mnf old B head and as soon as I saw this one in news thread it was "Hello!" - even more so when the head was shown blank. A few little differences, yes, but enough to make me rub my hands together in glee that I was wanting a cupid puki when released along puki bodies - got just enough to get the head now. :)
       
    11. Amen. I've heard things at Luts haven't been going so well lately. I bought my Shushu Elf last year, and they were fine, but since then I've heard their CS has gone down the tubes. I really hope they move their other dolls back to Fairyland too; their Customer Service is great, and if they have all of their dolls in one place, their business will boom. ^^


      Yeah, his lower lip is definitely more pouty. XD The eyes are exact, though! I was looking at the old B-head for a character, but I'm not sure the pout is going to work. The lower lip, to me, is HUGE. ^^;;;; Not my style. I really love his eyes, though, and the nose. I've only seen one of the old B-heads though, so I might just be missing the comparison because I've only seen the one thread.

      Someone actually posted over in the MNF discussion that he looks like a big Shushu, and I completely agree. I had been looking at the two and I finally put photos side by side and he does look a lot like a large Shushu (with more triangular eyes). The lips and nose, though, are pretty much exact judging from the blank head, but we'll have to see when he gets here; sometimes dolls look totally different IRL than in stock photos. My Shushu definitely did, although I ended up being much happier with her that way. XD No wonder I like him so much.... Now I'm hoping I can look past that to his character, so that I don't have to change who he's going to be. I'm very excited to be getting [Nameless Dark Lord fellow], although I'm having trouble deciding on his name still. I think it'll come to me once he gets home, though.
       
    12. Of course I'd told myself "no more dolls" but as soon as I saw the Nanuri head I started working on a plan to get him. *L* In the end DollLuver and I did a little group order, she's getting a Poseidon and I'm getting an Anu. I'm still a little "buh?" over how I went from "no more dolls" to "another doll and a head" but hey... I'll roll with it. :XD:

      My Anu (Abe) is going to be a college professor and my Nanuri (Shaun) is going to be his student... >_> *cough* Studentslashboyfriend *cough* Hey, he's eighteen! It's legal! :XD: I'm really excited to get them both! Hopefully the Nanuri head will work on my B&G Sapphira's body until he can get his own 60cm one.
       
    13. I'm getting one, and will be selling him. Actually getting all three, and two extra MNF's heads.
       
    14. onnawufei-- XDDD Ouch. I'm hoping I won't get to that point (I will. I totally will X3). At least they're legal. XD I'm a huge fan of student/teacher relationships, so you won't hear complaints from me! :lol:
       
    15. I do see a bit of a Shushu influence in him... and I'd be smitten if the eyes were a little bit larger and the ears were not sticking out so much... at least they are not to the point of being monkey ears.

      Perhaps I just need to see him in a girly faceup, but right now the mold seems a bit too male for me to be drooling to turn it into a Delf Shushu girl. My wallet is grateful... though it may just end up crying once there are owner pictures and heads hit the secondary market.:sweat
       
    16. *nods* I agree. He's still going to be a man for me, despite the similarities.

      XD Well, if you do end up buying one and making it into a girl, I look forward to it! I saw a GORGEOUS modded Nanuri 07 girl that made me drool (and wish I could honestly afford to own more than one SD).
       
    17. My NaNuRi '07 was going to be a girl briefly, and my NaNuRi '06 looks like a girl. :XD: I don't think Nanuris are usually given genders but either way I'm a sucker for boy to girl molds. Both my girls (well the ones that aren't Pukis) have boy heads. I'd love to see how the Feeple Nanuri looks as a girl.
       
    18. Oh he's pretty. I'm glad to see a doll with slightly upturned lips every once in a while - I wish there were more dolls that smiled, or looked like they were smiling.

      I should keep on with my hiatus, or I'll be too tempted! XD;
       
    19. i'm hoping to get one of these gorgeous heads at some point and turn it into a girl... ;)
       
    20. Teehee! onnawufei, looks like you'll get your wish after all! fenris, I can't wait to see her. I'm curious how the Nanuri would look female. Like I said, the 07 Nanuri was beautiful, and I think the '08 might just be able to pull it off.
       
    21. *wiggles fingers of temptation*

      What? I caved... am I not supposed to encourage others to do the same?

      WOO! 8D
       
    22. I think he looks really great! His face is a lot like some of the older Delf sculpts (he has large eyes but they aren't tooclosetogether) and I can't wait to see what people do with him. :aheartbea
       
    23. I can't wait to get mine.. I had been eyeing a Feeple Riff for almost two months.. and all the event heads where just to much temptation. So I did a very small group order with two friends and got all the event pieces. Already promised the puki to someone but the mnf and nanuri are mine mine mine.

      I'm sooooo tempted though to maske this Nanuri head into a girl, except I'm terrified that the head may end up looking to large on the Delf girl body. *worries* I'm so tempted to start hunting the marketplace for a delf girl body or just ordering one from Luts. I'm just scared of getting it and not fit. *sigh and sits and debates between feeple girl body and delf girl body*
       
    24. You might be able to use a larger girl body. I have an AoD girl body for my Yder head, and while the Yder heads are small, the body seems more proportionate to the head than the CP girl body does. No neck modding necessary or anything.
       
    25. I adore him and will hopefully be able to pick him up on the marketplace after the event. He is perfect for my Livi's (CP Soony) older brother. :)
       
    26. Do you think the NS of AoD will be a pretty good match for a NS of the Nanuri head. I have nooooo idea about the resin matching.. thats why I was thinking the CP girl but was so worried about size.
       
    27. Oh he is really pretty, I really want one. Only sad part is Have no money, and I asked for some doll stuff for my b-day but my parents said NO. Ughh them haters.
       
    28. So since Fairyland is such an awesome company, they sent me a surprise Nanuri 2008 head with my Seorin. :D *glomps Fairyland* Here are some super-quick crappy photos for now...

      BTW, the Nanuri 2008 head seems a bit small for the Feeple male body--might fit better on a Delf body. It looked a tinsy bit better on my Ashely's body. My Nanuri is using my Riff's body (normal skin, fall 2007) in these photos. If anyone wants photos of something specific just let me know! ^_^

      Nanuri 2008 and Riff:

      [​IMG]

       
    29. Hm... I was a little worried that it was a smaller head. I have a Delf body incoming for mine, so we'll have to see how he looks on that! :)

      That is a GORGEOUS face sculpt though!
       
    30. It looks like a great sculpt for a girl. This may be my reason to finally get a Delf girl body.
       
    31. red rosin
      wowowow the head is awesome!!!!
      can't wait to see him with makeup~~
      btw, what size of eyes he is using? and can he wear 8-9 inch wig since his head seems smaller than normal cp head @@
       
    32. OH MY GOD. *Freaks out in multiple random letters* You got yours! That must be why they're coming in so early: Fairyland is randomly giving them out in orders sent out during the event period. XD Oh he's so pre-ttyyyyy! look at the smirk! Look at how evil he looks in that photo! He's going to be so perfect for my still-nameless character...

      You're right, though, he's definitely a little small for the Feeple body. Does anyone think he'd fit proportionately on the shorter DZ 1/3 boy body? I was considering that one for my Nanuri.

      ((I really like your Riff. XD))

      I'll second kobo on the eye question. Are those 18mm or 20mm? I'm assuming he wears 8-9 because I know my MNF wear 7-8 and he doesn't look like his head is THAT small, unless the 7-8 wig will be a tight fit.

      Hobbysue-- If you do make him a girl, you'll have to share pictures! I really want to see how he looks as both genders.
       
    33. red rosin>> would you, perchance, have a regular delf head to size it against? i've no idea if a riff head is normal-sized, large or small in comparison to the other delf heads, and am curious. :3

      from your pictures...i quite like him! :3
       
    34. kiradyn_rhiode-- Don't quote me on this, but considering the Feeple bodies are 70cm while the Delf bodies are smaller, I'm going to assume Riff's head is a bit bigger than the usual Delf heads, although Fairyland DOES say you can interchange heads with the Delf body. Still, assume Riff is at least slightly larger than the Delf boys.
       
    35. psychoticelflet5>> ah, okay. :3 thanks.
       
    36. *_*
      I actually ordered a Feeple body for him the morning before I got the head. Now I'm getting him a Delf body. :doh The event head has Dollshe default 14mm eyes and this Luts wig in size 9 (SD). The eye size is nice but the wig is waaaayyy to big. This head needs size 8. On friday (my day off) I will try to take more photos with different eye & wig sizes... so put in your requests now, LOL! :lol:

      Riff is smaller than Chiwoo but bigger than Luwen. I just shipped out my Luts 2007 Juri A head, which is bigger than the Fairyland 2008 Nanuri head. But I still have a Luts 2007 Juri B so I'll get a photo with that Delf head. You can see photos of the Luts 2007 Juri A head on the same Riff Feeple body here.

      if I missed a question, please let me know! ;)
       
    37. Those are 14mm eyes in him? Wow, small eyes! Could you also take a pic of him in 16s?

      I am looking forward to seeing him in person... I'm having a hard time picturing the actual size of the head. Any chance you could take a pic of the Juri 07 B head with him?

      The head being smaller is sort of a mixed blessing - I'm not sure if he'll go with my other dolls (*sigh*) but I think he'll wear the wig I have for him pretty well.
       
    38. Seconded. I'm surprised that his eyes are only 14mm; that's what my MNF wears! :sweat Still, that's not a bad thing, as all my other dolls will be MSDs, so they can all share (less sizes for me to have to spread my money among, that's for sure!). I'd love to see 16mm, just for fun, even if I'll be buying the 14mm. ^_^

      Requests:
      16mm eyes
      18mm eyes (if possible)
      Wearing a 7-8" wig

      Thank you!
       
    39. wowow great!!
      he can wear 14mm eyes which can share with my other kids~~ great!!
      as what red rosin said, 8-9 wig would be better i guess~~ once again can share with my small head souldoll boy~~~ would like to see him on a delf body~~~
       
    40. *squeal* yay for pictures. Now I really want to make this head I'm getting into a girl... but I'm still wondering if the head would be a bit too big on a CP body.. anyone know much about the NS resin match between this and AoD?
       
    41. wow he looks cute....

      there's one in the GO I'm running though he'll likely be sold to pay for shipping to participants :( I guess that's the first one out there...and 14mm eyes!!! holy crackers.

      this is so tempting me to get another big boy but I must resist >.<
       
    42. XD Rillystar, don't resist! We can craft a whole ARMY of them. Together, we shall RULE the WORLD. *Maniacal laughter* ... Sorry, he's going to be my first SD, and he's an evil character. My head feels a little fuzzy at the moment. XD
       
    43. haha

      I really should resist. I have so many boys in the SD size compared to my poor 2 girls. I guess they share the harem for now.

      But honestly I don't need another floating head, and finding a body that's not a CP body (I have a couple already) was hard enough for my WS little floating head.

      must....resist....no more boys >.<
       
    44. XD Awww... too bad. Well, if you decide to keep him, let us know!

      Is it bad that I'm more excited about getting Erekor (I finally decided on a name! X3 AIR-eh-core) than about the dolls I actually ordered? :sweat I think it's because I wasn't expecting him the way I've been expecting to get Brownie for months and months, so I was kinda excited, but not sure if I would keep him. Then I realized he could be a character that I hadn't intended to ever be able to find a mould for that fits perfectly into my characters' storyline. X33 So I think I'm more excited about him than my darling Piki! :)
       
    45. Based on the size of last year's FeePle Nanuri, I was expecting the head to be a bit small for the male FeePle body, so I'm not at all surprised.
      *snatches up last year's head, the Luts NNR07, and Riff head and compares*
      :o
      Holy cabbages...based on those pics, this year's head seems to be even a little bit smaller than last year's! Last year's is the exact same size as the Luts NaNuRi 07, just for reference, and both come up a little bit higher compared to Riff than the new head seems to. >_< Oh well...I was planning on putting him on a smaller body, guess it just won't be a Delf one. XD

      He is seriously made of cute, though. :whee:
       
    46. acanthiel-- XDDDD By "last year's" do you mean just a random Delf head? Well, I was planning on making him a hybrid anyway. XD I guess we'll see. Darn, if they keep making them smaller, the heads will never fit on ANY of the bodies! XP

      I don't suppose anyone getting him would have a Dollzone 60cm body to compare him on for size? I was thinking of making him a hybrid with DZ (I heard the resin matched pretty well) but I don't want to if he's going to look out-of-proportion with it.
       
    47. PsychoticElflet5 -- This is the head I am referring to. It wasn't called a Nanuri at the time, just a 'special head', but afterwards when I asked Liria if the sculpt had a name I was told that it didn't, that it was just the 'FeePle Nanuri'. Not many people have one of them, so you've probably never heard of it...actually, I have no clue how many are out there...they apparently gave out 300 but I can only think of one on here other than mine. XD

      As an update on sizing, I just checked my Juri A head, and he's shorter than my Riff as well when put together like that! His face is wider, though, so that's why he looks alright on the FeePle body to me. It looks like the Nanuri head isn't any wider than the Riff head...but it's hard to tell.
       
    48. When I first saw the pictures, I decided that I not only wanted this head, but I wanted two, to make a pair of twins I've been planning. I've been trying really hard to talk myself out of it, but seeing the in person photos has made all resolution melt away. I hope The price on these gorgeous boys does not go through the roof, but it seems like FL might be putting out more than enough supply to meet demand *crosses fingers*
       

    49. Isn't that the Nanuri 2007? Wait, that Nanuri doesn't have vampire teeth... HUH! (Edit: And a different nose. X3) Darn, he's sexy too! ^_^ Thanks for the information; you're right, I don't even think I knew he existed!

      Thanks for the multiple comparison updates too!


      Akkhima-- Sometimes prices in the Marketplace on limiteds (or gift heads) do tend to go up, but hopefully you'll be able to find what you're looking for without emptying your whole bank account! (You still have to get them bodies, after all! XD)
       
    50. Here's my nanuri 08 head with 8-9 wig from dollga and 14mm eyes from souldoll~~
      [​IMG]

      his head is small and having similar size with my souldoll boy
      as for eyes, maybe the souldoll eyes are a little bit smaller than normal 14mm, it seems that 16mm maybe better @@
      i will try other company's 14mm eyes later ^^
       
    51. Actually, I would say the problem is that the eyes red rosin used were larger than normal for 14mm--Dollshe default urethane eyes have large irises, more like a 16mm iris on a 14mm sized eye.
      If you have any 16mm you should try those as well, they may indeed work better.
       
    52. I took photos, but have not had time to web-ready them. :sweat Just too busy, sorry! I will hopefully have them up sunday night.

      acanthiel - yep, they were dollshe 14mm--my MNF 14mm eyes are WAY too small for his eye well. 16 is best, 18 huge. Size 9 wigs are too big, 7-8 too small...8 inch wigs are just right. Gotta go, so I'll have more details tommorow! :)

      ^_^
      Rosin
       
    53. Thanks, redrosin and acanthiel! Hmm... now I can determine once and for all if the eyes Vana has are 16 or 14mm. X3 I always thought they were 14, but they pretty much fill her eyes. I guess the incoming head can decide that for me!
       
    54. Umm, someone did ask which size eyes the Nanuri head wears on CS board actually. Quoting from my reply, Nanuri head is designed as a boy and so 16mm fits the best. Apparently 18mm also works too (according to the Korean admin), but as Rosin says they may look huge. :)
       
    55. Thanks, Liria! ^_^
       
    56. oh liria, you have no idea the relief that brings me. :3 thanks!!
       
    57. I think I may have convinced my friend to make her next doll purchase the body she's been needing and the Puki she's been wanting. X3 Which means, if she can bump it up just a little, she'll be getting the head too! ^___^

      Edit: Possibly for a female character. So there's another notch for the female Nanuri '08!
       
    58. My box arrived today, along with my Nanuri head! ^____^ He's so pretty! I took fast photos, which I'll post tomorrow after I've uploaded them and sorted, and maybe after I take some more in better light. XP It was already getting dark by the time I got home, so I'll get photos soon! I tried a pair of 18mm null eyes and they looked pretty good, so we'll see. I also have a pair of 16mm dark violet eyes I can try in him at some point (I hate messing with eyes, so I just need to get the patience to deal in it). Not enough eye putty to go around, though, so I think I may try that kneaded eraser trick.

      Any suggestions on eye putty for him?
       
    59. I've been using white poster putty from Staples. My only experience in the past has been with the yellow stuff which I hated but this stuff is awesome. I'm slowly replacing all my sculpy with it since sculpy apparently ruins some eyes.
       
    60. Thanks, onnawufei. I'll have to drop by Staples and try some out. *Imagines herself opening the package in the store and sitting in the aisle to put eyes in Erekor's head, just to try it* :lol: I've decided Erekor DEFINITELY needs something other than null eyes, which is good, because then my Shushu can keep the null eyes. For now, though, he's stuck in em; those or the teal butterfly eyes I have. :sweat And I'm sure he'd just LOVE wearing those.
