I have been hunting baby winchesters and while none of 5 Stars fit the bill...yet...I have found a few others that might. I think this sculpt would be good for Cas - Joo Head I think this one might work for Sam - Welcome to impldoll The chin/face shape works. And for Dean - BJD MYOU DOLL or maybe 1/6 Leprechaun_Dwarf(26cm)_Doll_NORSE MYTH_Islanddoll Not that I can currently afford any of them. I think with the right accessories they would make cute baby Winchesters. And perhaps Bat Boy as Crowley?
Wow Kelli! Thanks for all the great suggestions! Those all look really awesome! I especially like the one for Cas! Those lips! And, 5Star Batboy for Crowley would be excellent! I was kinda thinking that 5Star Bibi would make a decent Sam, as he is a 30cm doll and would be taller than Dean, who will probably land up being a regular height 26cm doll. I hear you on the not being able to currently afford them. At the moment, my dolls plans have sort of taken me in another direction and the Winchester boys will have to wait. I got bitten by the "Fashion Doll" bug, and there are some limited dolls I have to have because they're gone for forever. (My bank account is having a heart attack, right now!) But, I do keep this photo around as a reminder of what I'm looking for in Chibi Sam, Dave, & Cas. (Weren't they adorable as babies?!) Thanks again for the suggestions! That was really nice of you! Are you planning to do Supernatural chibies? I know you mentioned that you'd like to MSD & SD versions. Now those would be some sculpts to hunt down!
Guys I have a quick question about Aiden... are there magnets right under the horn bumps, or could those be sanded off relatively easily?
Wow! This thread has really been dead! Hi VampireAngel13. Sorry no one has answered your question, yet. I'm not sure if I can be of any help. I have an Aiden, but he's the 26cm version, and he didn't come with horns or magnets. He has the little bumps in his forehead, but they are just for show.
I have Aidan, release 2011. In his head, under the base of the horns, there are magnets that are very deep in the base. If you cut the base of the horn, then there may be a hole. I did not correct my Aidan, his "horn base" is covered with hair of a wig. It suits me perfectly (I even like that sometimes it becomes obvious in the photo that he is an unusual child).
Thanks the info! But it's a little too late lol I bought a different doll because I was too worried about the horns (and this particular doll doesn't wear a wig, so there would be no covering them) Xo Thanks again!
I wanted to share with you, my 5stardoll tong tong. She was in yellow skin, but I dyed her tan! Spoiler: Photo found here
If 5stardoll no longer offers human hands with the tong tong, angel of Dream is a really good resin match
And I'm back! By some crazy miracle I ended up finding a red Aiden at a meet last week. So, despite my terrible luck with this guy, I have him anyway. Again. This time I'll hang on to him!
YAY! Congratulations VampireAngel13! So happy to hear you finally got an Aiden again! (I have always wanted a red resin Aiden.) Can't wait to see pictures of your little guy!
Lol lets hope so! I used to have a red Aiden, back in the day when they were first released. I was going to do a Chibi Hellboy, but since I didn't really work with characters that weren't mine then, I never did anything to him and eventually sold him. I kind of regretted it, and always wanted another, non-red Aiden but never got around to getting one. Fast forward years and I do have a lot of character dolls so I wanted to try again, but stuff kept getting in the way of me buying one, and even though I kept checking on his availability on 5Star, the day I went to go buy, they were sold out again (I literally think they stopped selling him the day before). I kept meaning to put up a WTB but I'm not able to be on DOA much so either I"d forget or not have time....I had just told my friends I was looking for one, was at the meet, turned and there he was. lol I got lucky with a lot of stuff I was actively looking for at that meet.
What a great story VampireAngel13! Wow! After all that, I guess getting a red Aiden again was definitely meant to be! I think that makes him very special! Will love seeing you make him into a Chibi Hellboy! (BTW, I love Hellboy!) Congrats again!
Wow! Estvin, that is the most elegant TongTong I've ever seen! She is so pretty! Thanks for posting her!
Lovely little princess! She is irresistible! P.S.: How is Tofik doing there? Do you have his new photos?
I had some serious updating to do on my Aiden's faceup xD Before: Recent personal faceups Now! As you can also see I made a replacement horn for the one I lost. It's made of milliput c: Lucifer by Izzy, on Flickr I'm also getting an Amy soon. I'm not sure if I ever mentioned xD
I'm so excited! My little 5 star yo group is getting a fourth! I have a tan Aiden named Achile, a ns yellow Tong Tong named Schrodinger, and a ns pink Ria named Baozhai. The new lil is a ns Jay I'm naming Cionaodh which is Irish gaelic for born of fire.
Congratulations ahalfling - can't wait to see them all together. I love what you have done with Achile, Schrodinger and Baozhai.
When you described him like that I almost instantly pictured some kind of a nerd in my mind with sweaters and shirts, maybe some nerdy t-shirts, but that's just a loose idea. That's great you're getting your fourth 5sd doll! Hope it arrives as soon as possible!
Perhaps shorts and jeans and superhero t shirts and the like and maybe button up sweaters X3 If anyone has any helpful links let me know
Btw guys think pink is going out of business and they have Aiden and Batboy accessory parts in normal resin cheap.
Thank you! I love him already and can't wait for his wig to come in and for him to get his face up! ^_^

Oh ahalfling! They are all so darling! OMG! I love the Doctor Who t-shirt! Can I ask where you got it? (This is a very Whovian household.) Can't wait to see your Jay with a face-up!
To be honest I don't remember where I got it. All I remember is as soon as I saw it I checked the price and hit buy lol.
Holy Cow! More surprises from 5Star! Per a notice on BJDCollectasy, 5Star is having a 2018 New Years Event. They have introduced a new tiny, Tony, and he appears to be on a new body that's 28.8cm. The arms are definitely double-jointed, but it doesn't look like the legs are - it's hard to tell from the photos. (At least the massive hips are gone!) New boy Tony on new body Unfortunately, it looks like 5Star has also discontinued all their 30cm dolls! TongTong, Quintus, Amy, and the rest are gone. I'm kinda bummed about this. Was hoping to get a BiBi in tan, someday. (They had told me last year that tan resin would be coming back, but I guess not.) The older 26cm dolls have been discontinued, too, along with the Aiden family dolls. Only Anna and Peter are still for sale. I wish they would give people a heads-up, like Dollzone does, when they plan to discontinue a sculpt!
I noticed that. I had both Aiden-5 and Yami on my wish list, but now it doesn't look like that will happen. I agree that it would be so much nicer if they gave you a heads-up. They discontinued Mia and Rex before I had a chance to get them, and I also would have liked a Tong-Tong in tan... At least I did get Jadite, Quintus and Jesse this year. And one could argue that 9 is enough. (But if anyone does argue that, I think I'd have to disagree! LOL!!!) I can no longer keep track of the bodies that 5SD puts out. It's confusing, as they really don't have any kind of consistent naming or numbering of the various types of bodies. I think my crew is on at least 3 different generations of bodies. (And the best posers are unfortunately the three oldest...) Tony is really cute. He reminds me of Rex. But before I become too tempted by another 5SD event, I think I need to remind myself that I still have work to do!!!
Oh the new tiny is cute! The new body looks pretty too but are they sure about not making a torso joint...? Well it's not like there's much use of my Amy's torso joint but still. Anyway, it's really sad that they're discontinuing so many of their dolls. How can they discontinue this adorable little face? Nutella by Ame, on Flickr
Fairy Milliner, you are so lucky that you got Jadite, Quintus, and Jesse before they were discontinued! So great to see them all in a photo! I had also wanted a Mia too, but missed her. At least, I was lucky enough to get a Rex. He really is a cutie. Chibi Xander (5Star Rex) The new sculpt looks cute, but I'm not won over by the new body sculpt. One of the things I absolutely loved about 5Star was their great double-jointed bodies. I own 10 of their YOSD sized dolls. (unfortunately, 2 of them have the new singled-jointed/big-hipped/no-torso-joint bodies, and I really dislike them. ) Yes, I so wish 5Star would give their customers a heads-up! If I had known they were going to discontinue so many dolls, I would have ordered a Bibi and an Amy immediately! I'm kinda bummed. What's really sad is that 5Star is still trying to give away the same old doll, Miss S, that they had as a gift last time they had an event. Sorry, I was not impressed with Miss S. The additional event pets are very cute, but you have to spend $500 to get one of those. Whaaah! Amaterasu, your Amy is sooooo cute! I really wanted an Amy and now it looks like I never will. I'll just have to enjoy looking at yours.
Aww, thanks a lot~ I'll try to take more photos of her in the future then. It's such a shame that you can't get an Amy anymore. Your Rex is super cute too!
I have 9 of their YoSDs. I took advantage of a few events... Well, that's my excuse, and I'm sticking to it... LOL!! Here's the other half of my gang - sorry for the bad picture.
Thank you Amaterasu and ahalfling! I'm very happy I was able to get Rex when he came out. He's so ancient, he was made when 5Star was going through their environmental resin phase. All the rest of my 5Star tinies are just normal opaque resin. (which I prefer). I guess I'll be stalking the MP for an Amy. Unfortunately, 5Star has never been a very popular company, so I think finding her 2nd hand might take some time. Fairy Milliner, the rest of your 5Star crew looks adorable! I love your tan and red resin dolls. It's sad that 5Star decided not to offer their dolls in colored resins anymore. I'm curious though, since 5Star has retired so many of their dolls, I'm wondering if they have big plans for a bunch of new sculpts?
I remember when they started out they had so many cute dolls and really nice shoes and clothes for them, too. My first three were Aiden, Batboy and Ria. (Ria was a free head, I decided to make him a girl and got a girl body in that same order.) The demon twins came as free heads with my next order, and bumped down the others on my wish list because they needed bodies first. And then suddenly Rex and Mia (and a bunch of others) were gone, without warning. And the same thing happened this year. I wanted TongTong, Yami and maybe Aiden-5, but they were gone from one week to the next... If I'd had a heads-up from them about their retirement, I probably would have ordered all three. I personally also think that 5SD shouldn't have stopped offering the free heads with the events. The five free heads I got in the various events all needed bodies, and with the bodies then came more free heads, and all in all I ended up with one SD and four or five tinies more than I probably would have ordered otherwise. Miss S doesn't inspire me to order anything from them this event.
