Thanks for starting this thread. My first Crobidoll (Zack) should be here mid November!!! The links are very helpful.

 

Yay yay! I'm waiting for my Nia~

Glad I'll have a place to discuss him when I "have to" leave the Waiting Room.

 

Absolutely do post pics, but remember that for discussion threads you're only allowed one picture per post. What some people do is post one pic and then a link to a gallery thread.

 

Sounds good timid, thanks for the picture posting info. I will be sure to post lots of pics of Zack when he arrives!!!

 

Crobi boys are so gorgeous! I wish I can own one! *mumbling about Ys* But my bank account won't allow it right now T_T

 

If I won the lottery I'd probably bring home an Ys, too! I really like him.

 

I'm looking for information and pictures to do with the poseability of the renewal R-line body, or R-line v.2. Is it better than the old R-line body? Does it have the same problems? Any owner pics?

 

My Zack's on shipping .

 

timid - Congrats!! That is so exciting. I can't wait to see pictures.

 

Subscribing to this!

Crobidoll is really a great company > w<

I want them all!! And I feel like a pokemon trainer xD

I had a Thor head from Jan. 2010 and I have a Lance Head bought second-hand from 2008 (I think) ^___^

 

Maple Land is Quebec! But its close enough xD

I tried my Thor and Lance on FDoll boy (NS and WS), SD10 boy and DollnDoll Queen bodies. Right now I have a Delf Girl (WS) and a Little Monica Harmony and I am waiting for a DiM Minimee body hoping for a fit ^___^

The DollnDoll was a perfect match for the Thor head but was too pink for the Lance head. The SD10 body was also really great =D
The FDoll was ok for both and I was using the SD10 for my Lance even though it gave him a big head xD

The Delf body is really too small and I did not try the Lance head on the LM body but the resin is no match as the Lance head is a really darker yellow ^^

My Lance head is also a perfect match for my Dikadoll jointed hands (NYS) =D

I have a few pictures around if it interest anyone, but they are of all my dolls...

I betcha Lance would look good on an SDGr body . . . ^o^ Too bad they're expensive.

It's pretty normal that the head doesn't tilt back much at all. Not many companies provide really good upward motion of the head. It doesn't tend to be a problem because BJDs photograph better with their chins down than lifted up. I had a Soom boy, and they're built sort of already with their chins down, but the lack of downward motion was one of the dealbreakers for me with him and I sold him.

With my M-line body, I find that his legs can be quite floppy, and in general he doesn't tighten up that well. I'm pretty sure this is due to the elastic Crobi uses. It's pretty soft stuff. I'm planning to replace it with SD17 elastic from Volks and see if that improves things. I took out the O-ring, put in an S-ring and redid him in a normal doubled-up elastic style (he didn't come that way), which helped somewhat, but I think the stronger elastic will help. I haven't tried sueding him yet.

 

Thanks for the info, Chessaphire! I'm feeling more enthusiastic about buying Yeon-Ho someday on the new R-line body Nude pictures would be great sometime if you have some spare time too hehe.

 

Putting them back together is pretty easy, so I wouldn't worry about that. Or worry about the elastic if he's not too floppy for your tastes . It might be strong enough for R-line and just a bit weak for the M-line, or it could also just be my particular lad's elastic getting old, too.

My boy has at last left customs and is in the hands of the post office. I was hoping he'd arrive today but it's looking like that's unlikely considering it's almost 5 now. *sigh* Surely he'll be here tomorrow!

 

Timid-I hope you will receive him tomorrow. My Zack arrived on the 5th, but I'm going to have to wait until I return from my trip on the 15th to have him in my arms...

Be sure to put up lots of beautiful pictures!

 

Waaah, ten days? That's a long wait to see him!

 

ok, am confused so on the site i trust that when you order a R or M line doll you get a body, yes? because, on the page for yeon-ho it says that it is included and then further down is says its not? and if i wanted to could i get just the head? i really doubt the head is 520$

 

A body is included. Yeon-Ho's an R-line, I believe. I suspect they just copied and pasted from another page and got that mistake in there. There were heads offered without bodies at one point, but I don't think they have been doing that lately.

 

Most heads were available alone in the beggining and you had the option of buying a separate body. I think this was only for Yuna's heads (Yeon-ho, Lance, Thor) and Marcel.

Though they were all made full dolls at some points and the heads are not available alone anymore.
I wish they were still heads only xP

 

Well, got up this morning and found this fellow outside my bedroom door:

 

Thank you every one!
dang that would be so great if they did offer that, it would solve all my dolly woes.

 

Gave my Zack his first actual photoshoot this afternoon:

And that is one handsome guy * 3*

 

Thanks for fixing that for me. Links haven't copied and pasted right for me lately on DoA . . . >_>;

I wonder what sort of items will come up with the winter event?

I'm a little annoyed I missed out on that trenchcoat, that's right in character for one of my boys.

 

ZACK Spam!
Here are some OK pics of my Shiva! He's finally home

 

My god he is gorgeous!! If only he was not limited and still available * 3*

Though the head seems pretty small for the body =B

 

I thought the same thing myself when I took him out of the box. I ma swap the head with the R-line boy I have coming... But it doesn't matter - he's gorgeous!!

 

I want my Zack on (ideally) a Volks SD17, but I wanted the M-line body for somebody else .

 

http://crobidolls.com/index.php Crobi new releases. Tei is so cute O_O

 

Ahhh~ I love the new dolls. I never had SD doll before, but I was wondering is it hard to find clothing for M size? Or does the few cm difference compared to R not matter?

AmoraSeth>He looks lovely ^^

 

Awe, thanks everyone!

Also - Little LANCE!! Oh my freaking gosh! I want him. I never wanted a little guy the way I want him!! KYAAAAAAA!

 

I'm so glad Tei, Do-hu and Jun are not limited...all of them are beautiful for different reasons! Mikhail has blown me away too, but as he is a limited I'll just have to admire him from afar.... little Maru is totally adorable too. I've not owned a Crobi before, but I'll bet they are quality dolls!

 

OMG the mini Lance!!! I find it weird to see him with such a small body xD

I like the new M-line * 3*
Tei and Do-hu are really great!!! Jun too but his face is too round for me xP

Though they should stop doing them all in M-line... Tei would be way better on a R-line body :/

Thank god I'm happy with my Lance xD
And also that most of them are not limiteds~

 

Omigosh omigosh omigosh!

Why are these dolls all so gorgeous?? Crobi, you're killing me... I just bought one of your sweet boys!

I love and hate how so many of Crobi's boys look the same, because it means they're all so lovely, but... I can't buy "pouty, sad boy in R size," "pouty, sad boy in M size," "pouty, sad boy in E size"... Curse you, Crobi!!

Also... (Normal people can look away now) Is anyone starting to really get the feeling that Crobi is totally targeted at fujoshi...? (I mean, more so than other companies.)

From the cute comic they just released... Click me~

To their one logo...


To the fact that their two most popular doll lines are so close in size that they're practically begging to be paired up together... (Seriously... 63 and 66 cm? That's not two sizes of doll, silly Crobi.)

And now, a (really sweet) body pillow as a gift??

Crobi... why are you so awesome for terrible people like me?

 

OMG! I did not see the body pillow O____o XD
I like the cautions so much XD

Crobi is just too awesome.... and kipiicat; you are not the only one thinking that... seems so obvious it makes the company even greater xD

 

I liked their 'caution' notice too, it's nice to see a company with a sense of humour at least and those body pillows....it's worth ordering something just to get one of them!

I've always thought Crobi leaned toward the same-sex-dolly-relationship thing...c'mon, all those pretty boys?! I guess if I were a girl doll, I might be sad about it!

 

So... wait... over 50,000 won? If I'm correct, that's only $45??? That's practically, like, a pair of pants! ONE PAIR OF PANTS AND I COULD HAVE ONE OF THOSE PILLOWS??

(Man... I'm so creepy. )

EDIT: D'aww... you have to order a whole doll to get the pillow... Hm. Should I?

 

Woah!

I would never want a body pillow with a guy on it.... but with a doll that pretty ??
I don't know xD

Ugg.... I wish I could by a new Crobi boy > A<
Almost had a second Lance this week but in the end it did not work XP
Not enough money to get a new guy anytime soon either xP

 

Me too! (lol)

Yesterday morning, I would have had enough for one of these new guys in my PP, but I ordered 2 off-topic dolls before I knew about them.... Means, I'm down about $200, but I guess there is no rush as they are new basics. Would have been nice to have a Tei under the Christmas tree though....

 

Those pillows are really something...but I don't think my hubby would appreciate them much


Oh and btw - chibi Lance - Kyaaa!!!

 

I am torn between really liking and being a bit creeped out by them. Don't think my husband could say much of anything though, he has girly pillows. :P

Darn it, I wants a Tei now. Eddward's gonna need a friend. Yeah, that's it....

 

OMG that comic is adorable! Now I most definitely have to get Jun!!! xD

lol I'm still iffy about the pillow... it'd take over my bed oAo

 

I would say that Crobidoll definitely as fujoshi in their sights, yes *L*. Volks isn't much better . . . the Williams/Reisner/Cecile storyline is just hilaaaaariously slashy .

The body pillows are also hilarious.

Crobi needs to put out more mocha skin lads.

 

I really like Jun, but I'm surprised at his size! When I saw his face I thought for sure he'd be on an msd sized body or something, or, like thor, able to fit on an SD13 or something like that sized body. He's so cute though. But I'm not in the market for any new dolls, unless I win the lottery, lol.

Though, I really need to check out crobidoll more, I love their wigs, and their clothes selection is good too.

AND I LOVE the fact that the company is so clearly run by yaoi/shonen ai fangirls. I wish I worked there!!

 

Oh, I really want a large crobidoll, Yeon-Ho.

Does he fit regular SD sized clothing? I only have an MSD, and she can't wear normal msd clothing.

 

Crobi's R boys have long legs, so they fit long leg SD13 or SD17 sized colthing ~
