[Adopted] Immortality of Soul (Part VI)

Mar 5, 2016

    1. Hmmm. A thought just came to me.

      I have a 70cm DZ boy, but I don't get him out very often, because even though I love him to bits he doesn't really fit with the rest of my guys - and as I am short of doll storage his head and body are stuck in different boxes.
      I did put my Osiris head on that body for a while, but Osiris was too big as it has narrow shoulders.
      Now I'm wondering if Bel Canto would work on that body. The resin match isn't great because the DZ body is a bit pinker, but I might try it out later. At least it would save me needed to get any more bodies right now. (Still have nowhere to store him though!)

      xTempest - yeah, I guessed they wouldn't be bringing back the old 70cm bodies now that they are making the smaller heads.
      Their whole size system seems really messed up now though. Blood is same size head as the new 70cm from the measurements - but he is with the 60cm.
      Can you tell me what's the actual measurement for Luce's head size? Curious to know what the new 60cm is like.

    2. @Sylphe_7 : I dont have Luce with me right now so i cant get the exact measurements >.< ... (It wont be awhile till i get to see him in person as im studying abroad) What i do have tho, is a picture of Luce and Sezz head, side by side. Im not sure if that would help u but i can post that if u like ^^"

      I agree with their size system being messed up but what i dislike the most is that they are still selling the old heads on the new body even tho it makes them look a tad out of proportions >.< ....
       
    3. I have been thinking about getting some IoS boys for a while now but I did not know there would be a Sale so I'm not prepared for it at all right now. :sweat There is a lot of information I would ideally want before buying anything, so I'll just post all my questions here and hope for the best...:eusa_pray
      I would really appreciate any answers I get. :)

      1. How often do IoS have a Sale as big as this?
      2. If I buy "Bel Canto"(not just the head) does it come with the "70Body" that can also be purchased separately?
      3. If I buy a complete doll(Bel Canto) and an Infernale head in the same order, will it be shipped in the same box? (I'm just wondering if the head will be in a small box(like I have seen orders with just a head being shipped in) of it's own or if it will be in the same box as the body.)
      4. Can Infernale fit on a IoS 70Body, or would that not work/look too "bad"?
      5. Is it easier to find good bodies, that match in size and skin color, for Infernale in NS or WS?
      6. Are there any "popular" non-IoS bodies for Infernale and Bel Canto?
      7. Is there anything else that I might need to know about these particular sculpts?
      8. This old and new head thing, how does it effect Bel Canto and Infernale? Will Bel Canto on the IoS 70Body not look like in his pictures? Is Infernale's head smaller now or the big version?

      Pictures that are related to my questions would be great.

    4. @Doko : The class 80s (Infernale, lacrimosa etc etc) USED to fit on the old 70 bodies. The 80s heads were a tad big for the old 70 bodies but it didnt look too bad and could be fixed with baggier clothes and wigs. However, since they dropped the size of the new 70cm bodies, i can safely assure u that the 80s heads will not fit the new 70 body ^^" ... I'm currently having problems getting the old 70s head to fit on the new 70s body.. let alone the 80s head >.<

      Bel canto should be fine on the new 70s body as he was advertised with it but u will have to look into getting another body for the infernale head.
       
    5. xTempest - sorry! I forgot you didn't have him with you. I was just curious anyway.

      Doko - Bel Canto is the new small size 70cm head, so he should be the correct size for the new small size 70cm body.
      I've never seen IOS have a sale like this before, but it's a 10 year anniversary sale so it's not going to happen often!
      Probably for the shipping questions you'd be best asking on IOS Q&A board.

    6. 1. Never seen one like it before. I'm guessing it's their 10 year anniversary and pre girl body release sale
      2. if you buy a complete Bel canto it should come with the same body as they are currently selling as they claim that the old one is too damaged (I find it hard to believe since they have lied before - see "S" and never coming back again, and discontinued sculpts that have been for sale ever since).
      3. Ask them, just to make sure but when I bought a Blood (full doll) and Lacrimosa head in the same order, blood came in his own box and Lacrimosa head in a head box.
      Best of luck
       
    7. I'm wondering how looks the old 70 heads in new 70 (68) body?
       
    8. I just ordered a Blood through their anniversary sale. Does anyone know how long their orders normally take?
       
    9. @paxita : Heres a shot of a Sezz head on the new body.

      [​IMG]



      @Miss Deep : it takes about 60 - 75 days on average, and longer during events ^^" I would say to give them about 3 months
       
    10. My Ciel is still waiting for his Sebastian.... :sneaky Six more months for my Beloved Sebastian arrival..... :celebrate:celebrate

    11. Paxita, once the bodies reach me I can show off Jag and Shadow (and comparison pics for blood and lacrimosa) but I sure hope they fit. Else I will be reeeeally fuming mad with IOS.


      Btw, sorry for bringing it up here but I figured that maybe someone in here knew.. Why are the genital areas on the guys so... off?
      You know, I'm not asking for detail or so (although I wouldn't mind it either) but sizewise and shapewise and stuff - it's like.. wth is that? Is there any reason they started making them like that? (I mean - they could've just made them genderless if they didn't want to shape anything realistic )

    12. Are you kidding me? I don't get paid until the 15th. Anyone know how long the sale is for and if they are going to offer layaway with it?

      Edit: Nevermind. I hopped my ass on over to the website. While I was there I had to check out th 70 cm weiner, lol. It does look a little weird. I'm starting to rethink using Nova as Ichigo now that I've seen him blank.

    13. Sales until april, but they may cut it short if they receive too many orders to handle. And yes they are offering layaways with the sale.
       
    14. Thank you. I think i was just posting my edit as you answered my questions lol. Thanks again though for answering :XD:
       
    15. Lol np xD

      As for the male parts... I dont think it looks TOO horrible... And they would have clothes on most of the time so.. It doesnt really matter that much ? I think u should be more concerned abt getting the heads to fit on the body ^^|| ...
       
    16. oh wow! many thanks!!!

      thanks!! I really apreciate those pics!!

    17. Fair warning : I ordered this morning - so odds are they ain't reaching me before anyone else :P
       
    18. That wait time seems average. Thanks!
       
    19. Can't say I'd really noticed before, because I'm not a fan of the IOS bodies generally so I hadn't really looked. But now you mention it they are a bit odd. But then none of my guys have been done any favours by their sculptors in that department. I feel rather sorry for them actually.
       
    20. Your post made me laugh :lol: But as previously mentioned, at least they're wearing pants most of the time. If I ever finish the guy I was making I'll have to really focus on his bits :thumbup
       
    21. I really don't need heads, but this sale could push me into getting Luce or Nova.
       
    22. I know what you mean. I really don't need anymore dolls right now, not when I have floating heads, but that price is so hard to pass up. My dolls could also use clothes and the like when I do get them bodies.
       
    23. Yes. If I hadn't just recently bought Bel Canto at full price then I'd probably buy at least 2 and maybe even 3 heads now.
      It's an amazing sale, but it's just at totally the wrong time for me to buy anything now.
       
    24. Don't you just love it when that happens?
      I looked at the current order list (or whatever I should call what I can see in Q&A) and thought to myself: There are going to be soooo many people disappointed right about now.

      Hopefully, you'll love Bel Canto anyway and will soon forget about this sale :P
       
    25. Someone mentioned that this sale is also girl body release sale or something like that so do you have real info from IoS that they really will release the girl during this event or do people just speculate? I'll ask directly from IoS if there's no real info. Thanks!
       
    26. Hi!
      IOS just killed me and I think I have no choice and buy Anima... I loved him for the first sight!
      and there I have a question... do someone have a comparision between new normal and new white skin?
      I just don't know what colour should I buy D:
       
    27. Yeah. I was annoyed yesterday when they announced the sale, because if they'd given some warning I could have bought the older heads I wanted as well as Bel Canto, as I wasn't in any hurry to buy him. I'm sure it's also annoying for anyone who bought something at full price very recently. As it's a one-off event they could have told people they would do something for the 10 year anniversary and then people could be ready for it. Most companies announce a big event in advance, but I don't remember seeing anything about this before it happened. But, yeah. It's just something that happens. And I still love my Bel Canto - even without the 40% off! :)
       

    28. IOS has colour comparison pictures on their website
       
    29. Thanks, I couldn find it... Meybe I'm just too excited - sorry for stupid question ^^"
       
    30. Its fine xD I spend too much time stalking around IOS' website ^^" ...
       
    31. I'm overreacting, like I'm crazy O.o"
      So many times looking at him... I'll definitely mode his nose (just too perfect) but this lips and eyebrows *_*
      Need him, need him... I was goint to buy body for my Eloy first but... argh >.<
       
    32. Well, probably I decide for Blue, but do not want the new IOS's body for him, so someone could give me the size of the neck of the new body? I need to find another body of 70-72 cm, thanks
       
    33. Thank you everyone who answered some of my questions! It have been really helpful. :thumbup
      However, the head size thing is still confusing me. *_*

      Where can I look to find out if the head is old/big or new/small?
      When I browse their site and is on a doll's page, all I see is pictures and the price, and what skin color to buy.

      I want to buy a Bel Canto(full doll), a Tauros head and a Chaos head.
      Will all those heads fit Bel Canto's body?

      Also, does anyone know if the New Normal matches with Volks Normal Skin?
       
    34. @Doko : as far as i know, IOS has stopped providing details or head sizes. The only thing the website does tell us is what size of eyes are suitable for the head and the wig size >.< ...

      The tauros head will definately fit bel canto's body as it was used in the promo picture for tauros but im not too sure about chaos as he is one of the older heads.. He might fit but i wouldnt get my hopes up.

      Colour wise... i cant stay for sure but im under the impression that volks is more yellow base and IOS new normal is more pink base so it might not match... can someone else verify this ?
       
    35. Now I'm Reading this and... I have a question - I want Anima and the New body... Wilk it be compatibile? I don't want old body D:
       
    36. Anima is an old head so its a tad risky ... If you dont mind the head being a little bigger than the body, then you should be ok.

      Theres no way to get the old body anymore since IOS doesnt offer it, unless you were to look for it in the second hand market. All the 70cm dolls come with the new body now >.< ...
       
    37. ahh... you live only once =D Anima, here I come ^^ I'm so crazy, just can't believe what I'm doing xD
      Thank You xTempest and TornadoLovesMelody
       
    38. nnnnnnnnnnnnice! ;)
       
    39. Thank you again xTempest. :thumbup:abow:
      Now I got all the information I need to place my order. :dance
       
    40. update: IOS said that since I asked they'd update in a few days with Jaguar,Shadow AND Lacrimosa head on the 70 bodies. YAY!
      I'll share with you as soon as I see for myself :D
       
    41. I just ordered two dolls and a head O.o
      Anima for me and the rest for my friend =D
      I think we are super crazy but... I just cant wait for that boy *_*
       
    42. @TornadoLovesMelody : im really curious to see how the Lacrimosa will look on that new body xD My Lacrimosa is on the old body and he already looks like a bobble head.... the new body will be interesting. Do keep us updated! :D

      im planning to order more dolls from IOS, but thats after they get back to me on a few more inquiries xD
       
    43. Care to share? :D
       
    44. Yes. It will be interesting to see the photos with old heads on new bodies.

      I even decided not to buy the old body for my Osiris because it would be too small for him. He would be such a bobble head on the new body! :XD:
       

    45. The dolls im getting ? Or the inquiries im asking them ? XD
       
    46. How about both? :P But about the inquiries it's mainly if it isn't anything personal but rather about the dolls :P
       

    47. Im thinking of getting mars and tauros but they gotta reply me abt if the discount applies to the resin change for tauros or not, cuz right now, the discount isnt being added when i select the black resin.
       
    48. I had no idea they did black resin! (That's a tauros only thing, ye?)
       

    49. Yep! The black resin is only for tauros. Theres also "pure white" but they discontinued the transparent one >.< ...
       
    50. Does anyone think or know if a class 70 head will fit on a class 60 body? They have the same diameter head. I want to order sezz (a class 70) but I think he'll be too tall for my 60cm Iplehouse girl ><
       
    51. The current 70cm body is really small... so you might not have to worry about the height difference... but from what i heard, Sezz was initially created to be interchangeable between the old 70cm and 60cm bodies. I've posted a picture of Sezz on the new body a few pages forward... I personally feel that the sezz head is too big for the new 70 body and the 60 body is smaller than that (not by much tho) so maybe you can use that as a reference ? Proportions really defers between individuals tho so you may be ok with head and body proportions ^^"
       
    52. Actually I think your right...It seems like he is just a head taller than her (I think his chin would reach the tip of her head) so It wouldn't be too tall for them to pose together...

      His head would probably look the same proportionally I'm guessing though, because IOS has the same shoulder to shoulder width between 70cm and 60 cm (which is probably why his head looks so big)
       

    53. Yea, i find it weird that they would make the new 70's shoulder the same as the 60s.. But they are kind adown sizing the newer heads so its not so much of a problem there..

      The head might look bigger on the 60 body tho cuz its shorter and the chest is slightly smaller
       
    54. Stuck with the 70cm Thank you ^^
       
    55. Here's some angles of my Bel Canto in temporary eyes and wig - his haven't got here yet and these are way too big for him! (Might be useful for anyone looking for owner pics.)

      I've put him on My DZ 70cm body. It's really too big for him. His little head looks kind of weird perched on top of the long neck and because the IOS heads have a very shallow neck space it looks even more perched! I don't recommend this for a hybrid! He's going to need lots of scarves and long neck sweaters! XD

    56. Hi people :)
      i'm new to IOS, eventhough i was in love with their heads before the renewed the web site, anyway now i'm looking to buy at least one head, cause due to a very long layway and another one already running i cannot afford the whole doll, i'm wondering if Lacrimosa is the same mold of A2 or A1, cause i notice some similiarties between the mold. I was in love with Infernale when he was launched, but i don't know if i should get him cause the tongue makes his expression boring in the long run :sweat
      Any opinions?
      Thanks so much :3nodding:
       
    57. I know this is a stupid question, but about the layaway, can anyone tell me where the "CUSOMER REQUEST" is?
      They say to note there that you want the layaway, but i can't find it on the website. Srsly *_*
      It is Not the "order comments" right?
       
    58. Pretty sure u post layaway requests in the Q&A section.. Ive never had a layaway before so i might be wrong but ive seen tonnes of layaway threads in there

      @Sylphe_7 : wow! He looks like he is really happy xD his forehead seems a tad low tho ? Not sure if its the wig or the sculpt
       
    59. o0kupant0o - I put my layaway request in the order comments and then posted a note on the Q&A board last time I ordered.

      xTempest - probably the wig. That is a really small wig (about 7inch I think) and it's still too big!
