I'm so excited that all the babies with faceups are ready to be shipped now! They're all super cute, and I'm pretty sure that I saw my boy in one of the photos from Haru's IG story yesterday! I'm trying to resist the urge to buy more outfits until he comes (he's already got three outfits...more than any of my other dolls, lol!) but by the time he arrives the weather here will probably be much warmer, and he doesn't have any t-shirts. Surely it's reasonable to make sure his clothes are seasonally-appropriate...right? lol.
I got my shipping notice for Willow this morning! After six long months, she's finally coming home. Yay!
Is this where we discuss the other tinies as well? I just got a Eorin in yesterday and his posing in PHENOMENAL!
Adori by Angel Davies, on Flickr Here's my baby boy! I absolutely love him. I first really got into the hobby in 2016 when I saw an Adori, and even though it was love at first sight, I thought he'd never be mine. It took five years, but I finally have him in my hands. He's even more adorable than I thought he would be; he's definitely going to be the most spoiled of my bjds. If my phone weren't broken and I weren't so busy I'd probably have taken over 1000 photos of him by now. So far this one is the best I've got. I'm trying to resist the urge to buy him at least ten more outfits, haha. I'm still trying to decide on a name for him. So far I have the name Seong-jae; I tried researching Korean names, and I know that it is an actual name, but I'm not sure if it fits him (Apparently it can mean many different things depending on what hanja are used!) I want him to have a sort of timeless name, one that works for both a modern and a historical character, but unfortunately I don't know enough about Korean names to know if a name is trendy or outdated.
Very cute Adori boy, congrats! I hope to see some of the other new arrivals as well. My Willow girl finally chose a wig and eyes, meet Ella. Ella by clochette62, on Flickr
I got my Geuru twins back in January, but they just arrived in after getting faceups. I normally do my faceups myself, but I wanted to treat them to something special. So let me introduce you to Lily and Lucy! Untitled by Nikki Kelly, on Flickr
Thank you so much! This mean I can only get her on second hand Market or get Geuru in her place, im fine with both (although I like Adori eyes better)
@flornosertao Adori, Geuru, and Nanni are all discontinued. Yes, second hand market is the only way to purchase them now.
Realized I never actually posted a photo of my Eorin. Seems I'm the only one here with one of these cuties. I've been calling them Gumi but am not really sure who they are yet, nor even if they have a gender. I really like the non-gendered body but it's a bit slimmer than most of my other yosd (except for the actual slim 1/6 one). Also I mentioned the phenomenonal posing before. This doll is so fun to pose and play with! Spoiler
@Cap'n I LOVE Eorin, and I'm still beating myself up for skipping out on last september's preorder. I keep bugging poor Haru about the next one. Thank you for sharing!! I cannot get enough of that body's posing ability, it's the cutest. I wish this sculpt got more love! Would you mind sharing if 12mm or 14mm eyes fit them best? (Sorry, I know I just asked this same question about another doll in the DV forum, hahaha... hi again... ) I was also wondering about how small/thin eorin would be compared to other yosds. if you ever felt like it/had the energy and time, i'd personally love to see them next to any other yosd for a size comparison! Is finding well fitted yosd shoes/pants a serious issue, or is it just everything a bit baggy/oversized on them?
@Beedalee Eorin wears 12mm eyes. 14 are too big for the eye wells tbh. As for clothes, they can wear barbie clothes pretty well actually. Most yosd outfits end up being baggy, which I personally don't mind. Shoes is the hard one because all my yosd shoes are actually pretty massive on them, but again I don't mind the larger shoe look on a tiny. And the head is actually on the smaller end of yosd. Wears a 5-6" wig. But they're also taller than most of my other yosd. It's kind of an odd size. Here's a pic I snapped of Eorin compared to a Dollsbe/Pipos hybrid that is pretty much the same size as a Littlefee. I have some "chunkier" yosd I can snap a pic with tomorrow. They all have massive heads in comparison.
@Cap'n thank you!! Also you are a livesaver. 5-6 wig?! I have had their measurements on my phone for months and completely forgot. I'm so glad I hadn't bought anything yet lol. *promptly deletes all 6/7 wigs off list* I thankfully have another 5/6 yosd that also fits into barbie things and several 27-30cm range yosds, so hopefully they won't look too out of place. The tininess just makes me fall even harder... Thank you for answering again! I'm on a hunt for essential accessories to fend off the urge to put whole new dolls on layaway.. Hopefully Haru will put up a preorder for his yosds in december/early 2022... I would love to see chunky yosd-lineups, but no rush!
She reminds me of the Momocolor Momo29 bodies. I love your Dollsbe/Pipos hybrid, btw. The Pipos 3-part torso body is one of my all-time favorites.
Anyone joining in on Haru’s new preorder? I sent in an email to get a PS and a girl Adori this time around. Wish I had more funds available, because I would love to get a Nori and Scone, too. Next time maybe!
No order for me this time but I did just get some pirate boots for my Adoris that they're quite happy with. New boots by Nadine, on Flickr
@dxgirly, I've taken the plunge and filled out a form for a regular Adori. That contemplative face reminds me of Grogu and I'm not sure why.
Still haven't really found many other Eorin owners, and the two I know of are people I already knew prior. My little one got a character and a story finally but still needs a faceup. I have a few blank faces on my backlog atm. This is G.U.M.I. which stands for Groundbreaking Universal Mechanical Invention, and he's a robot. I just ordered him some gear eyes that should be in later this week too. Fun fact: Rainbow High male doll pants fit Eorin absolutely perfect!
Does anyone know if Adori has ever been recast? I am looking at a second hand one. The owner bought him at a doll market without a COA, but is willing to send detailed photos. Is there anything I should look out for?
Yay, this thread was revived just as I got G.U.M.I. back from the faceup artist. Wig is temp but he also got his gear eyes. My little robot is finally looking like, well, a robot!
Eorin sort of sticks out amongst my tinies since he's taller, slimmer, and has a smaller head (I love me some big headed cuties). Looks kind of odd in comparison so my idea was that he is a robot therefore supposed to be like that.
(Hope this is the right thread as she’s teeny) I received my Wish (harucasting Nori) yesterday! Very excited as she’s my first small girl. She's so delicate to handle! Untitled by SL L, on Flickr (Her unboxing is in my Insta highlights suerreal_one if interested) edit: replaced with smaller photo as the original link's photo was oversized. Sorry!
Excited for the new preorder! I am thinking of getting either Scone or Zzang, but it’s so hard to choose. I also like Danji ooh and Willow too!!
The new Haru minis are so, so cute, but I think I need to pass this time 'round! With the exchange rate, they're just too spency for me. I'll be very excited to see everyone else's pictures.
I just made a pre order for Willow. Is this the right thread for her. I think she takes the same body as Adori but I don’t see a separate thread for her.
You Willow is really cute! I love the face-up you did for her. I need to make mine a wig. Right now she is wearing one that I had laying around. I might post a picture of her anyway.
I found Zzang second hand so next time Haru does a preorder for these hopefully I can get Eorin to go with her.
My Charlotte says hello to you Zzang girlie and hopes you find an Eorin soon. Charlotte by clochette62, on Flickr
Thank you, I hope so too! I’m figuring out what fits in advance so if I do get one I will be set. Luckily I already had things that fit but I would definitely like to expand their wardrobe.
New Does anyone know if Haru is still doing occasional preorders for his 1/6 child body dolls? I haven't kept up to date, and I have no idea who and or what has discontinued. It seems like the small dolls aren't offered very often. Thanks!
New I believe he does still have a few 1/6 in rotation. I think they were actually supposed to be up in this next preorder, which he said would be in Feb, but doesn't look like he's opened it yet. I would definitely keep an eye out for it soon though!
New He said he would do one last year but never did and I luckily found my two second hand. Following his instagram is the best way to know when he does a preorder though and he’s very responsive to dms there.
New They are not offered very often. I want to try to order one next time too. Instagram, like others mentioned is the best way to stay informed.
New I was thinking about DMing he. He is so nice, though, I'm afraid he would open them up just because he was asked. If something happened and I couldn't get one after that, I'd feel so bad! I know this is crazy thinking, but it is the thinking I'm stuck with. Thanks, everybody!
New It looks like there will be a pre- order of some kind starting March 20th, but I have looked back through all his posts and I can’t find anywhere where it says what will be offered.
New If you look at his story highlights it looks like Vivi, Bijou, and Anpang are in the spring preorder
