5StarDoll Tinies Discussion Part 4

Oct 14, 2016

    1. Merlin's Mom and pepperonipizza, yeah, I agree, at this point it's too much trouble to dress all my dolls for Halloween. I've got too many, and whoah! on all the costumes I'd have to buy. :doh

      I do love to dress a few for Halloween, usually my tinies. I thought I'd dress my Bat Boy as Chibi Dracula, this year. I landed up liking it so much, I think I'll just leave him as the Dark Prince for a while. (I also dressed my DD BB Judy as a cute little witch.)

      I took some pictures of Bat Boy, but this is the only one that came out. (Darn!) I'll try to take some more tonight.

    4. Your dolls and their outfits are absolutely adorable, @Merlin's Mom <3

      My poor Lelle should be getting ready for the winter season too but here she is, still wearing her summer dress :'D

      Those crocs are actually keyholders. I found them at a local shop a few weeks ago and they are the perfect size. Or well... they WOULD be perfect if my doll had actually two left feet. XD

    5. Thank you Amaterasu. Your Lelle is stunning! :D. You should check out Affordable Designs - it is a Canadian doll company and they have crocs like the ones you found, but in pairs. The prices aren't bad either. Also some of the clothes like the jean skirts and tee shirts fit the 5Star dolls - my Amy is wearing those in a previous picture in thread 3.
      Edit: Hopefully this is a link to the web site AFFORDABLE DESIGNS - CANADA

    6. @Merlin's Mom: thanks a lot! :D And omg, thank you for the tip, it sounds awesome! Those crocs are still a little pricey though, compared to the ones I had bought (for about $1, haha XD). But at least they come in pairs! : D

    7. Oh! Merlin's Mom, your Natalie looks great in her knit winter outfit; so very sophisticated and grown-up! I love everything about it - the color, the gold accessories, and the shoes! :aheartbea

      Amaterasu, your Lelle is so cute! Makes me want a 5Star Amy so bad! The tiny crocs are a great idea! They look adorable on your girl!
       
    8. Thanks a lot, @Rabbit-moon! :whee: You should get an Amy too then! :D She's got such an adorable little face~

    11. Woot! I finally got a notice from DDE that my Maggie has arrived and is on her way to me! *does the happy dance* :dance:dance:dance
       
    12. Yahoo - great news! So about this time next month mine should be arriving. Looking forward to seeing photos of you new girl when she gets home!

    13. Yay you guys! Exciting news!

    14. Thank you pepperonipizza! I'm very excited to be getting her! I've got her wig, dress, and shoes waiting for her!

      BTW, Love your Avatar title: "Halloween, dolls, cats = my happy place" :aheartbea

      (I wish DOA had some Halloween emojis)
       
    15. That's exciting news! I hope they arrive soon!

      I'm still waiting for my Jadite - the second order I placed for the Summer Event. The first was not an issue, but I think maybe what's holding it up is Jadite's blush and face-up?
      In any case - it's not like I don't have any other tinies to dress up in the meantime. :)

    16. Fairy Milliner I am really looking forward to seeing your Jadite- I hope she arrives soon!

    17. It's super nice to have stuff actually waiting for your doll to arrive. That's not the way I seem determined to do it. Lol. It's like get a doll and then figure out what I want for them and then wait to have time to make it for them, which leaves me with many naked dollies! At one point there will be a doll revolt....:horror: Hopefully not too soon. :lol:

      I so wish that DoA had Halloween emojis too! I'd use them constantly. Halloween after all is a way of being. :sneaky

      @Fairy Milliner - what color did you order your Jadeite in? The blushing would definitely be slowing down your order, and oh I bet you are so excited to get her home! Jadeite is such a neat and unique doll. :D

    18. Okay, don't have any new photos but here is a favorite of my Quintas - Tallulah

    20. Thank you Fairy Milliner! The USPS tracking site says my Maggie may be delivered on Monday! So hopefully when I get home from work my girl will be waiting me!

      I agree with pepperonipizza. I'm sure the blushing is taking time. Can't wait to see her when she arrives!

      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

      Kelli, your dolls are adorable!

      I went to your Flicker account to admire your dolls. So cute! I especially loved the little sweater you made for your dolls out of socks!
       
    21. Hi Kelli - I agree with Rabbit-moon the sweaters you made from socks are adorable. Who is the little red head with freckles? I really like the face-up and the sculpt.
       
    22. Yeah Kelli, I am also wondering who the little freckled red-head is? He's very cute with all those freckles!
       
    23. Merlin's Mom and Rabbit-moon, thanks for the kind words about my little sweaters. I am assuming this is the redhead with the freckles.
      [​IMG]Warm and toasty by Kelli, on Flickr
      It is 5 Star's Bibi sculpt. The head was a free gift that came with my very first purchase from the company. I'm afraid the face up is my own work.
       
      • x 1
    24. Kelli he is actually much cuter with your face up than the 5Star face up - I really like how you have him done - what a cutie :D
       
    25. Wow! A Bibi! He looks so great with your face-up! Those freckles are adorable! And, I love the sweater you made for him! (High-5 Girl!:fangirl:)
       
    26. Eeee! Guess who showed up yesterday? Yes, my Maggie finally arrived! :dance

      Say "hello" to my little Bunny girl!

      [​IMG]

      [​IMG]
      Isn't she darling? *squee*:chibi
       
    27. :love She is beautiful - love her face up!!! Can't wait to see her when you have her styled. She was worth the wait :thumbup
       
    28. OMG, she's super cute! :D What a darling! Love those bunny ears~ Congrats!
       
    29. Thank you Merlin's Mom and Amaterasu! I really love her face-up, too! She has such a sweet and soft expression.

      However, there is one thing that I'm not real happy about. 5Star appears to have changed the body of the 26cm dolls without telling anyone. (And not for the good.)

      Gone are the double-joints in the arms and legs; this is now a single-jointed body. The mobility joint in the thigh is gone, and so is the ball in the wrist so the posing of the hands is now more limited. And, OMG! look at her hips! (Forget the shorts I got her trying to fit. She has too much junk in her trunk to even button the waist.) And, the shoulders appear to be narrower.

      I'm not happy about these changes. I don't understand why they would take a giant step backward in the engineering of their doll bodies. In the future, I hope the original 26cm body will still be available. It was definitely a better poser, and clothes fitting that body was not an issue.

    30. OH My Gosh! The difference is dramatic and really doesn't make sense. I wonder if you can get the original body, but then there is the extra expense. I think you should email 5Star to let them know that the new body is not what was expected even though you ordered her through DDE. I hope they haven't changed the Star10 or Aiden 5 & Yami. Guess I will wait until they are here to get clothes together for them.

      Edit: I just went to 5Star's web site and they are showing the body you received as the new generation Star 5 Body- that maybe what will be the body for Aiden 5 & Yami - will have to wait to see. They don't show it in the doll photos only in the parts segment.

    31. Thanks for the info on the new body Merlin's Mom. Yes, I sent an e-mail to DDE this afternoon with these photos.

      Oh well, I'm sure DDE was just as surprised as I was. What can they do at this point? I love the sculpt, and I adore the face-up, so I guess I'll just have to live with her big boo-tay. (Looks like this girl is gonna live in dresses.)
       
    32. That is very big difference in the bodies. :ablink: Just looking at her in your photos, she's got to be at least 1.5 cm wider at the hips, maybe more, maybe less, but a big difference. That sucks. Wonder if the company has updated the measurements yet? She's definitely adorable!
       
    33. Oh yeah! Baby has definitely "Got Back"! Thank goodness I had a dress that fit over those hips!*_*

      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

      Okay, here is my Bunny Girl all dressed up! She really has the most adorable face. Even though she is not a great poser, i.e., very kicky & snappy, she just has a sweetness about her that is irresistible.

    34. She looks so sweet in that dress and the wig is perfect. Sad to hear that she doesn't pose well. Would hot glue suede or wire help? She really does have a very sweet face:D
       
    35. Hybrid question!
      I'm hoping you lovely 5Star folks can give a gal a hand! I've had so much trouble finding clothing (especially pants) to fit my TongTong that I'm considering hybriding my next doll from them - putting the Bibi 10 head onto the 5 body. Can anyone show me how well that would work with the neck? I am planning to request the older body, not the new one, so it is assuming they will still allow that.

      Here's a pic of my girl Inessa as thanks!

    36. Thanks Merlin's Mom! That's a good idea. I will definitely see if hot glue sueding will help.

      Elemental, your TongTong is very cute! I love her beautiful wings!

      I know all about the trouble with finding clothes that fit the 5Star 30cm bodies. If you check out this thread, one of our members, pepperonipizza, makes pants that fit 5Star 10 bodies. I have bought several pair from her for my Quintas and they fit great! And, her prices are very reasonable, too.

      TongTong seems to be having some concerns about those ears...

    37. They are sooooo cute together! Tong-Tong does seem to be enticed by Maggie's ears :lol:

      Elemental - your Tong-Tong is very cute. The clothes that fit Helen Kish's 12" Bethany also fit the 30cm 5Star dolls, so patterns for clothes for her also fit. I can't help you with how the hybrid would look, but the neck size appears to be very similar so it may work.
       
    38. I think I've mentioned before, but the Ruby Red Galleria Bleuette stuff (which can be purchased from DDE) fits the Star 10 girls perfectly.
       
    39. Thank you Lubelle - I will have to check them out. I am still looking for the perfect dress for Hester when she arrives and a Bleuette dress may be just the thing :)
       
    40. Thanks for the info Lubelle! Always appreciate hearing about a source for clothes that fit those 30cm girls!

      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

      Here's my Vivian with her BFF, the White Rabbit.

      I really need to find a little suit jacket for him; something old-fashioned and fussy. (Though, finding something that fits him might be an issue.)

      [​IMG]
       
    41. Squeal! How cute is that! Maggie would be cute in the photo too with her rabbit ears.:D
       
    42. No problem! Elia (my Mia) loves her Bleuette dress and keeps bugging me to buy her more!

      Glad to help...it can be a challenge to find things that fit for sure.

      Here is Elia in her Bleuette dress - I realized I had never actually snapped a picture of her in it, so had to photograph her immediately. She's all ready for a fall outing in her coat - but her hat is nowhere to be found!

      The outfit came with the dress and belt, the coat, and a hat and scarf that she is not wearing. I looked for her hat, but it seems its tucked away somewhere.

    43. Lubelle, your little Mia looks so cute in her fall outfit! I'm sure the hat will show up eventually. ;)

      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

      I love Halloween! Are any of you dressing up your dolls in costumes?

      Here's my little Maggie enjoying the Halloween decorations in the doll room.

      [​IMG]

    44. Elia is adorable and the outfit is perfect. I wish they hadn't discontinued the Mia sculpt - she is so cute!

      Rabbit-moon I think I like the face up on your Maggie better than mine - it is so soft and alluring. Did you ever get a response from DDE about the body?
       
    45. Thank you! I am so glad I got my Mia when I did...she was one of the first dolls I wanted, but I started with the smaller 16cm dolls first. She was discontinued shortly after I finally got her, and I am endlessly glad I did not miss out! I'm a huge sucker for elf ears, so...

      @Rabbit-moo Thanks! Your Maggie looks like she is ready to go trick-or-treating! I have dressed my dolls up in the past, but I didn't get to it this year, as I was busy making my own costume.
       
    46. I found some Bleuette outfits that I think will work for Hester (Quintas)- now Hester just needs to get here and hopefully she will like them. Lubelle - from the photo of Elia it looks like the shoes fit too which is a plus though only 1 outfit I ordered came with shoes. What is not to like about elf ears :D
       
    47. Merlin's Mom, I think the face-ups are different because your Maggie was a Limited Edition Alice-Maggie, and mine is the plain, standard Maggie. And, I agree, the Bunny Maggie's face-up is very soft and alluring. I really like it a lot! Even my husband thinks this doll is very pretty.

      Yes, DDE got back to me, and they were just as surprised by the body change as I was. They said 5Star is always changing the bodies without informing them. They apologized profusely and offered to take the doll back and refund my money. There was no mention of replacing the body and I did not press the issue. She's a very cute doll, so I'll just deal with her less-posable body. (Though, it's very frustrating to wait 5 months for a doll and not get what you were expecting.:eek:)

      On the question of if the original 26cm body will still be available, DDE provided no answer. But, I went to the 5Star site and old body is still listed. I guess if I order another 26cm doll, I will be sure to specify that I want the old body, not the "New Generation" body.

      I am still befuddled by why 5Star would want to take a step backward in the engineering of their doll bodies? I love their dolls so much; I would have expected them to develop an even more posable doll body, in line with the posability of a Fairyland tiny.
       
    48. I totally agree about being befuddled as to the step back in the engineering of the Star5 bodies. I am expecting Aiden5 and Yami to be in the same boat as your Maggie - will have to wait and see. I agree that if I order any other Star5 dolls (kind of want Jesse) that I will specify the old body. It would have been nice to know before. Did you notice on the 5Star site that the new generation body is $10.00 cheaper than the "old" Star5 body - I think you probably paid for the old body when you ordered, but if you send her back it will be another 5 months :horror::doh:...(

      I think the "plain" Maggie's face up is about the sweetest one I have seen :D
       
    49. Her shoes are RRG, but I can't remember if they were YoSD ones or Bleuette ones...from the measurements they look about the same size, so there shouldn't be any issues with fit. Can't wait to see Hester in her pretty outfits!
       
    50. :cool::kitty2:aninja:HAPPY HALLOWEEN 5Star fangirls! :apirate:8-):aangel:

      Hope everyone is going to have fun tonight! I dress up every year as a witch and pass out candy to all the little goblins and ghouls. I love seeing all the little kids in costumes.

      Here's my Bat Boy dressed as Dracula for Halloween. (And, my Only Kid Lebkuchen dressed as his servant, Renfield.)

    52. Happy Halloween everyone! :D

      @Lubelle - your Elia is adorable!

      Love the pics, Rabbit-Moon! Your Bat boy looks very commanding. Love his little outfit! (I have the same coffin box that is pictured to his right, lol!)

      So weird it is finally Halloween. I live out in the country, so no trick or treaters, but I do plan to dress up anyway!
       
    53. Thank you, Merlin's Mom and pepperonipizza! Hope your Halloween was fun!
       
    54. I received the Bleuette outfits today and I think they will be perfect for Hester - now if she would just arrive. There will be a fashion show when she finally gets here :3nodding:
       
      • x 1
    55. Can't wait to see her when she arrives!

      Maybe we could get a sneak-peek at the outfit?
       
    56. I tried to talk one of the girls into trying them on ( there are 3 so she has Fall/Winter, Summer and Spring), but they refused and in the end I agreed that it would be nicer for Hester to be the first to wear them. She should arrive sometime this month as it will be 5 months in two weeks, hope she doesn't get delayed anywhere.
       
    57. I totally understand, Merlin's Mom. Besides, if you put the outfit on one of the other girls, she may not want to give it up!:doh

      I've got my fingers crossed for you! Hope Hester shows up this month, too! :D

      (These 5 month waits for a doll are a bear! :roar )
       
    58. :celebrate:cheer:dance - Just received an email from DDE - my 5Star dolls shipped today!!!! I should have them next week :aeyepop:. I am so excited!!! She must have known her clothes arrived - poor Puck (Aiden 5), Yami (Purdy) and Jay don't have anything waiting though. I will have to see what body Puck and Purdy have before I start anything for them. Really can't wait to see them, these will be my first fantasy dolls :thumbup
       
    59. OMG!OMG!OMG! :cheer That's awesome news! Congrats Merlin's Mom! *Throws confetti and toots horn*

      I am so looking forward to seeing your new crew!

      I'm sure you will love your new little fantasy dolls. Fantasy dolls are so much fun! I love my little vampires! :aheartbea
       
    60. Yay!! :dance Can't wait to see Hester in her outfits! And your other new lovies too!
