20–39cm Dolls Gem of Doll-Violet 1/6

Mar 5, 2025

    1. My little Violet arrived today. I'm generally happy with her, but I think not as happy as I could be. Oh well! She's cute :)

      Box was well packaged and protected, as has been my experience with Gem.

      Gem's box had a little bow around it because it was stuffed pretty full!

      I bought a 1/4 outfit as well (Cecilia's). And there's the first glimpse of the doll!

      She's got her battle armor lol. And she came in the cutest little panties, I've never seen a non-fullset doll come with more than basic white underthings before! I regret not getting a better picture of them.

      Here she is fully unwrapped! The eyes she came with were quite nice, one of the best I've gotten with a doll, but I had different ones for her anyways.

      And here's a close up of her head (with eyes I had for her)!

      Her lashes are definitely too long. I might have to try to trim them.

      I'm not super happy with her faceup. It feels much lower quality than I would expect, the lower lashes especially are thick and just don't look right to me. The eyebrow placement seems off. Maybe I'm too picky, I don't know. There's a strange shiny texture to her as well, you can't really see it in the picture.

      It seems like my first Gem of Doll doll was basically perfect, and since then I haven't felt that the others I've gotten have lived up to that standard. It's a little disappointing, but overall they are still good quality.

      The last thing I'll vent about is a resin color mix-up I had. It's mostly my own fault, but I do feel frustrated about it. Long story short, my first GoD was milk peach pink, ordered through a dealer. GoD had a head sale event, I bought three heads from them direct. Milk peach pink was not an option on their site, I recklessly selected mia pink assuming it would be the equivalent color. It was not. I realized this too late and started making plans to buy a second doll body, but waited until I received the heads. When I did get the heads... they looked the same color as my original doll! I thought, jeez, the resin colors are similar enough that I can use them all together just fine! So I went ahead and ordered this doll, Violet, also in Mia pink.

      Violet is mia pink. The heads I received were not mia pink. Mia pink is undoubtedly a different color than milk peach pink. So now I have one body and four heads in (presumably) milk peach pink, and one body and one head in mia pink. Am I going to order another body in milk peach pink at some point? Possibly! The entire point of getting more heads was so they could be interchangeable, and I just got a second body so some of the heads could be friends and hang out together. ajgbdskgujbskdjgb

      Anyways. There's my adventure. Please enjoy two cuties hanging out. I still need to work on finding Violet's angles, but I hope you accept this for now.

      Still waiting on (from GoD): Caul 1/4 human body; 1/4 outfits (Spring, Coco); 1/4 wig (Coco); 1/6 outfits (Sunny, Yoly, Billy); 1/6 wigs (Sunny, Billy, Molara)

      Thanks for reading!​

    2. Your Violet is a little cutie! Love the pretty blue eyes you've gotten for her, they really pop with the brown hair! :D
