Chibi Unoa discussion part 3

Jun 15, 2012

    1. Anyone think there will be a restock in 2013?
       
    2. I asked Noppin about it. They said they had no news of a new order period at this time :(
       
    3. :( Maybe I won't be able to get one of these girls after all... I mean, not like I have the money anyway...
       
    4. CathyM: She's so cute!
       
    5. Don't give up hope. Who knows what might happen next year :)
      Thanks. I just love her.
       
    6. I finally finished Emmy (on the right), my Lilin Cool hybrid on a Narsha body. The headback was made by Amaeta. She's my Unoa Sist MNF hybrid Carly's younger sister :-D

      Sorry for the crappy phone pic, I should have better pics tomorrow.

    7. *[E]* : I saw your girls on Flickr. I really like the faceups <3

      Evelien: Congrats on getting her together :)

      I've been trying different wigs/eyes on Cari

    8. Thanks! So, will these eyes and wig be here to stay? She looks adorable :-D

      a new pic of Emmy:

    9. No, at least the eyes won't. I have this love of urethane eyes, and this pair is glass. But I haven't decided on eye color yet.
      The wig, however, is a winner.
       
    10. Just saw a New Year's Special notice-- looks like there'll be a few cocoa skin chibis at Noppin on Jan. 5th!
       
    11. Oh my gosh, someone tie me down so I don't buy one!
       
    12. Thanks for the info cylphiel! I can't wait to see them!

      My girls just wanted to say hi and Happy New Year to everyone!

    13. Lots of wonderful girls in this thread. Love them!

      Also, I saw a Cocoa Chibi in YJP and she was very special indeed. I wish they had more pics of her on that auction!
       
    14. Could Any Of You Help Me Out Wth Something? I Would Like To See If Possible A Unoa Chibi Head On A Luts Kis Delf & A Doll Chateau 1/4 Boy Body. Please & Thank You. I Am Thinking Of Making My Unoa Chibi Roar Head Into A Boy & Want To KnowWhat Body Fits The Head Best.
       
    15. I have a Kid Delf boy body but can't put the Chibi head on it as the neck-connection isn't the same for Chibi's as for most BJD. If you got a Chibi head-back made with a regular neck socket you could do it, but the Chibi head looks teeny-tiny compared to the head I have on the Kid Delf body.

      Teddy
       
    16. I'm actually kind of relieved that the quickie release in Noppin's going to be the Cocoa skin... I love seeing it, but I don't think it's a resin tone that would work for me. ^_^

      I look forward to seeing photos from those of you who manage to snag one!
       
    17. Teddy: I Got A Headback From BUFF That Lets Me Use The Unoa Faceplates On Other Bodys. I Just Dont Know What Body Looks Good With It.
       

    18. Ah. Well, I can't help, I'm afrad as both my Chibi girls have the regular headback so won't fit on another body.

      Teddy
       
    19. Even with a custom made headback, Unoa Chibis don't look good on just any MSD body! You do realize they're shorter than MSD? I have my girl on a Dollmore Narsha body which is about 35cm tall.
       
    20. Charmyc Thank You Ever So Much For That Picture. IT looks Awesome. I Know Now That I Want A Doll Chateau Boy Body ForMy Chibi Unoa Roar Facepate. I Have Seen Your Guy Around & ThoughtHe Was Cute On A Teenie Gem Body. You Have Been Most Helpful Thank You Very Much. :whee:
       
    21. If you wnat a slightly bigger body for a chibi boy, they would work, size wise on the Cusom House Littl Junior Ai boy body (the girl body is the same size as the Chibi's the boy body is a little bit bigger:

      I took some pictures yesterday at a a frind's dolly day of my two Chibi's with some others including a Little Junior girl and boy and a minoruworld Junior boy as well:
      [​IMG]
      From left to right: Minoruworld Junior, Little Junior boy, 2 off topic dolls with a LittleFee at their feet, Little Junior girl, my 2 Chicbis',
      The Minoruwold Junior body is about Chibi sized, and the Little Junior Boy is a bit bigger as you can see.

      Teddy

      My Chibi girls (and their Litte Junior Ai friend) got dressed-up for visitng yesterday for a dolly-day at Alice80's place:

    22. Cocoa Chibis are up at Noppin! Roron is sold out already.
       
    23. They are so beautiful ;_______;
      I wanted one but currently I can't afford to spend 1000&#8364; (with customs) on a doll. If Noppin would underdeclare their items... but they won't do it :(
       
    24. Snagged one for my friend. I hope I get to take some pics of her
       

    25. I know they're expensive but even with customs fees they shouldn't be THAT expensive... 66000 Yen is approximately 575 euros (according to valuta.nl). 21% of taxes is about &#8364;121. Here in the Netherlands we also pay around &#8364;20 which is a standard customs fee, so that makes &#8364;761. I know it may be different in Spain but the difference shouldn't be &#8364;250 right?!
       
    26. 71,600 yens with shipping.

      Sadly in Spain they charge us for everything. Now we have the customs only in Madrid so people that live in other cities have to hire a service to deal with all the documents. Also they charge for the stay in the warehouse (plus the 21% VAT of that) and other taxes (DUA, etc. and their VAT). In the end we have to pay 40% or so of the price :(

      (I bought a couple of dresses from Japan this summer. I paid for them 310&#8364; and customs charged me 140&#8364;. Never again).
       
    27. Aaahhh my apologies! How could I forget about the shipping. Doh >.<

      Wow. Doesn't sound very appealing to buy an expensive doll if you're living in Spain. And I thought the Netherlands were bad :(
       
    28. The problem is the centralization of the customs, before that I could deal with all the documents myself (I had a customs office in my city) and I just paid the 21% of taxes.
       
    29. I was able to get a Lilin, they are so pretty. *-* I hope the skin color look as good in person as it looks on the monitor. Can't wait to take pictures of her and my doll family. :)
       
    30. Did anyone manage to get a (cocoa) Roron?
      I was having Paypal issues and now I don't know if I got one. ;__;
       
    31. I managed to get a Roron. But I got it for my friend, since she was at work.
       
    32. Ooh, congratulations to your (lucky) friend! :)
      Did you pay via the Paypal button on the checkout page, or - ?

      They weren't kidding when they said the doll quantities would be really limited. >_>;
       
    33. Man im so sad roron is sold out already! i guess ill have to get Lilin ><

      Edit: I bought Lilin~ I perfer Roron's face and small bust so i hope i like lilin as much~ xD.

      Ive never had an unoa before lol, i was already stalking noppin's page because im ordering one of the Unoa Zero's.. and i saw this xD

      Although i thought it was going to happen tomorrow~ i forgot about the time difference...
       
    34. Yes, I used the Paypal button during checkout. I was shocked when I saw there were only 3 of the Roron.

      It's kinda funny. My friend traded me her Roron because she just wasn't happy with her. She wanted her in tan. Two weeks later...this.
       
    35. The Lilin girls are sold out as well now.
      Congrats to those who managed to buy a new girl!! :-D
       
    36. I wonder though if there will be another release in tan color?
       
    37. Question I know it is possible to hybrid unoa on a mnf but is it possible to hybrid a chibi unoa on a minifee? Or can you put a chibi unoa head on a unoa body?
       
    38. You'd need a headback for the chibi faceplate that has an ordinary neck socket on it.

      Teddy
       
    39. I was sitting there hitting refresh on the page when it went up, so I could've easily gotten one of the cocoa girls... but I looked at them and didn't like them nearly as well as I thought I would. I guess it's a good thing, because they were pricey. @_@ I did not need to impulse-buy a $750 tiny.
       
    40. Here you go: a Unoa Chibi Lilin Cool faceplate on a white Minifee A-line body. The headback was custom made by Amaeta.

    41. Thank you if it isn't too much trouble could you put her on a wig too?
      thank you teddy
       
    42. I didn't think the Chibi Cocoa was overpriced. In fact, if you add up everything you get in the kit individually, it's worth the price.
       
    43. Here you go, plus my Unoa Sist head (also with an Amaeta headback) on the Narsha body as requested privately by someone else.

    44. This.
      The original Chibi Unoas were cheaper but you had to buy the different faceplates, hands, ears, etc separately. Yes the Cocoa Unoas were expensive, but that included a lot of those extras. In the end, the Cocoa chibis were about the same total price as the regular would be with those same option parts.
       
    45. Evelien, I really like your chibi head on the minifee body, the body looks great. Is there a really big difference in the skin color though? And if there is, can it be easily covered with blushing? I might consider doing an hybrid since I have a loose Roron faceplate, just need to find an headback.
       
    46. No one has worn this jacket in a while. And it fits Cari pretty well.


      [​IMG]
       
    47. Yeah, there's a big difference because I photographed the head on a white skin body ;-). If you hybridyze a Unoa head on a NS Minifee body, the head should need little to no blushing from my experience, if I recall correctly.
       
    48. Do Any Of You Know What Doll Chateau Resin Color Matches Unoa Normal Skin The Best. I Have Decided To Put My Unoa Chibi Roar On A 1/4 Boy Body.
       
    49. Gaiboiozz: The match is alright. Not perfect but alright.

      CathyM: Your Cari is such a cuty :D

      Kyarolin: I have put my chibi on a NS littlefee body before. The match is not perfect but it is close enought. My littlefee is not new and has yellowed a little bit but not too much.

    50. Now you tempt me to put my roar fp on a ltf body. Lol..it's tempting...
       
    51. SO cute!

      Teddy
       
    52. My Chibi Unoa Roar Faceplate Just Got Here, I Love Him Already. His Name Is Benji, Now To Get Him A Body
       
    53. Good luck finding the right body!

      Teddy
       
    54. Thanks Evelien and Charmyc for your answers. I'm really tempted now to get and headback and littlefee body for my pout faceplate, I was waiting to see if noppin would have another release of the normal skin chibis, but I might not wait and get the littlefee body instead. Is the chibi unoa headback compatible with other bodies or is there other alternatives? :) I apologize for my many questions. ^^'

      I forgot to add charmyc but your girl is so cute!! x3
       
    55. The actual Chibi headback is only compatible with the Chibi body, as far as I can see. You'd have to get one of the Buff or Kay Wiggs headbacks to put them on a different body.
       
    56. Or the Amaeta headback ;)
       
    57. I haven't heard of that one. Only the other two. But I've never really looked into them before now.
