I haven't had a doll come with a face-up in quite a while. He pretty.

Dollmore uses so much foam. I almost feel a little guilty as a casual environmentalist. ((stuffed it all in a bag to reuse for whatever)

Free and with his head attached

Dressed in his freebie wig and freebie clothes. I don't think silver is his color

Initial thoughts:

I haven't had a doll with eyelashes installed in so long (I feel like it tends to look overly long in smaller heads and I am not nimble enough to give dolls 2mm long real lashes lol), it looks pretty on him.

I love that the fullset shirt has cufflinks, but I love you sadol but you tend to forget how inflexible the width of doll shoulders are. It was a little bit difficult to get him into the shirt. I had a similar problem with a sadol vest in the past that was a real effort to get on my doll.

He is so heavy. You absolutely cannot skim on a stand. I skimped on getting a stand He kind of has some leg locks but they are a bit slide-y.

The Dollmore wigs are extremely tight! Kind of annoying to put on, but very snug once it is on. I will probably make a wig for him because I prefer mohair over synthetic fibers. I am kind of flip flopping between giving him peachy-pink hair or just similar to the fullset wig but more auburn/ginger. I'd do both, but with his head size.... that is a lot of mohair!

The eyes in the promo pics looked more yellow in the middle than how it looks in person, but still pretty.

....I need to get swole, lol. I want to make him a sailor suit at some point but just manhandling him into clothes, I am tired!!!!

 

He is 84cm tall

 

It works the same as a metal s-hook where you just pull it through the head hole and twist.

They released their first lusion boy Pino in 2017 but don't do nearly as many boy concepts since there is only Little Lord Fauntleroy Pino and Little Lord Fauntleroy Dell and then Mystery Dell.

Yeah the Lusion girl body feels a little bit incongruous to the face for me.

 

A bit unfortunate that they are full set only and I don't think I have ever seen a lusion boy on the marketplace. Or that many owner pictures at all. Like I really want to see someone's Fauntleroy but despite being sold out on Dollmore I haven't seen any of the 20 Fauntleroys in the wild.

I guess I will rectify the lack of lusion boy owner photos by taking an excessive number of pictures with my boy because he is lovely and everyone needs to know this. lol
