i'm a noob to dolls and i was wondering if anyone knows of the site to look at Azone dolls? i searched google and nothing came up, thanks for the help. † Jou Jou †
I've never found a way to order from azone, so all I've ever done is drool. THere is a lady on ebay that has many of their items though. semirans
I've been wondering about ordering from Azone too. I really want one of their Pure Neemos. Mind linking to the lady on ebay?
I'd recommend having a look at Hobby Link Japan, they have a good assortment of Azone dolls and clothes, or Hobby Search 1999, who also have a good selection of Azone stuff. Unfortunately you can't buy directly from Azone. -_-
Parabox actually doesn't carry Azone stuff, it's more the other way around: Parabox sell Obitsu bodies and accessories. Azone's large dolls, the 60cm, are made from Obitsu bodies and Azone heads, with Azone designed facups and Azone clothes.
Is there any difference beetween the normal obitsu body on sale on parabox shop / junky spot and the obitsu body included in the azone edit kit on sale on HLJ/hobbysearch? http://www.hlj.com/product/AZNMB603-001 http://www.parabox.jp/obitsu/up60/60-03.html I tought about buy the azone doll edit kit on hlj as the price is way lower but I don't know if the parts, skin tone or other its the same, I plan to use an haruka head on it anyway so i don' care if the head is different. Thanks for any info.
Just saw this http://www.azone-int.jp/cct/Characte...hac611ltd.html May i know is it a BJD? So far like noone talk about azone dolls....any views on this azone doll?
Azone Dolls, use the same body as the obitsu i believe, and i think they are considered bjd, since they fit most of the necessary criteria, but they are made of vinyl instead of resin
The Azone 1/3 dolls are made with Obitsu bodies, which are considered on topic (just not the little ones). They sorta got "grandfathered in". I'm not familiar with the Azone fullset character dolls though and am not sure if that one in particular has a wig or rooted hair. So you may or may not be able to change her hair. That one does look like she has painted on eyes though. Obitsu/Parabox offers a wide range of heads, some which take eyes and wigs like BJD's and others which need eyes painted on and/or rooted hair. As for posing, Obitsu bodies are known for being extremely good posers! They are not strung like BJD's are, and have a wide range of motion and can hold poses very well. ^_^ You can check out the range of standard Obitsu/Parabox heads and bodies here: http://parabox.jp/eng/index.html
Yes they can change wigs, eyes can be changed if not painted, and their movement is more poseable than resin bjd because they use joints, and weigh a lot lighter
Hi I was wondering if the 1/6 scale Azone dolls are accepted on DOA? I plan on getting one and posting pictures but I don't know if they are accepted... Sorry I don't know much about their type of doll ^_^''.
I'm pretty sure the Azone 1/6 are off topic here. However Azone's 1/3 scale dolls are mostly Obitsu 60cm and 50cm bodies which are allowed.
Azone 60 cm character dolls, like the one linked to above, are off topic since the head has painted eyes and as far as I remember has rooted hair. Obitsu bodies with Obitsu heads - like Gretel and Haruka - have inserted eyes and wear wigs, and are on topic. Azone 1/6 dolls are off topic on DoA, but there are many other forums where you can discuss them!
Pure Neemos are so pretty - my husband has two - but they are off topic on DoA. All dolls on DoA are jointed, and PN aren't. You can read about what dolls are off topic on DoA in DoA's Wiki.
Oh, wow I really want to get a Azone. But there is so much I don't know about them, and not enough information about them. Maybe sometime soon I'll just say heck with it and get them but for now I'm going to look for more info.
Anyone know the measurements of their 50cm dolls? I was wondering if maybe i could buy some of their clothes for an msd girl
As Shailara said, if you look for Obitsu 50 measurements you should find it :3 Obitsu 40~50cm dolls and MSD can share quite a bit clothing (my Obitsu 48&50 girls are wearing MSD and MDD clothes right now), but sometimes sleeves or pant legs can be too short or too long depending on the item.
I just got my Azone body and love how tiny it is I do have a question though. Is there a way to remove the neck peg from the body? I want to put a resin head on it. Thank you!
Am I correct in saying that an azone 50cm doll consists of an obitsu 50 cm body dressed in azone clothes and an obitsu head without eyeholes that has been painted by azone and has rooted hair?
Yup that's basically it And in case anyone was wondering about the different types of azones, there's: picco neemo (1/12 scale) - rooted hair, painted face, picco neemo body (various types), female only Lil fairy (1/12 scale) - rooted hair, painted face, picco neemo D body, male/female available Assault/Custom Lily - (1/12 scale) sculpted hair, painted face(s), picco neemo body (various types), female only Picco Danshi - (1/12 scale) - sculpted hair, painted face(s), picco neemo body, male only Pure neemo (1/6 scale) - rooted hair, painted face, pure neemo body (various types), male/female available And the azone 1/3 dolls which as mentioned above use the obits 50cm body and have painted faces and rooted hair.
(Assuming you have a Pure Neemo or the pegs are the same for other Neemos) I just.... yanked it out. I was running on insomnia, so I don't have pictures and I wasn't exactly careful, but I grabbed the peg with whatever substitute I found for a pair of pliers and just pulled. It does dent the neck peg's plastic a bit, so maybe prepare better than I did and wrap the peg with a rag first so you don't do that. Warning: it takes a bit of pushing to get it back in. Not sure about how you could replace the peg, though - I find it annoying because it limits the range of motion a fair bit, but the only way to replace it seems to be drilling into the neck, inserting a very small cup hook, stringing resin through that, and then using a S-hook or D-ring in the head... which is probably more trouble than it's worth. Or not! Neemo bodies are pretty darn cute. Which resin head are you considering? :0 Here's my girl (Azone Pure Neemo body, Obitsu head, Y!J impulse buy) just for cute ^^
I'm thinking of buying an Azone from a dealer called Tasina: TASINA USA TASINA Has anyone ever bought anything from this dealer?
I am super interested in the 1/12 scale dolls. Annnnnd I finally found one I am in love with, and he's on his way! I do a lot of 1/12 miniaturing and I love doing all kinds of dollhouse dioramas. An articulated little dude in that scale will be so much fun to play with. (pukis and other on topic dolls are technically 1/12 but too babylike and chubby for some things. My pukifee multiheads look like very chibified adults in a 1/12 setting.) edit again. My willpower gave out and I got him a friend. So now I have this cute little guy and his girl pal on their way. I can't wait to play with them.
@Wayfarer Do you mind if I use part of this description to start a special thread just for the 1/12 dolls?
