Impldoll's new Fashion size dolls

I am actually excited! I don’t normally have MSD sized dolls and I was always unsure about fashion size. But yesterday I was actually wondering about getting an MSD to carry with me sometimes. I am really curious to see what they do I hope they make a guy one

 

Oooo I love her! I jus wish she was in scale with my dollshe fashion girl... but she's lovely all the same! Now to make myself not buy her!

 

SHOULDER MOBILITY

 

Yeah I love that they added that shoulder shrug thing to her! Although when her shoulders are not shrugged they look way wide but probably ok under clothes hopefully maybe?? I'm so happy her eyes are 10mm and not teeny 6mm. If I didn't already have two dolls on order I'd get her. I'm a bit concerned about her hands thou her fingers are kind of crazy splayed out

 

the listing is also under "parts" and as a body- so I feel like the head is not included

 

Her body has some interesting jointing in her legs/hips. The Christmas sale is a pretty sweet deal, too. I might order before the period ends.

I hope they also make fashion sizes of some of their bigger dolls. A mini Dorisy would be amazing~

 

Not sure if it's just that the shoulders are shrugging in the last picture, but don't the arms look too short? The fingers should reach halfway down the thigh.

 

I noticed that too. Also when it's sitting on the chair, her arms literally barely reach the seat. Overall I'm not a fan. :/

 

@IngieBee I agree! The one shoulder does not seem right. I would like to see a picture of her standing with her shoulders down in a normal relaxed position.

 

Oh awesome. I was hoping there would be a thread made for this new line. I've been eagerly anticipating this line from them. She has a nice face. I hope they have other body options for her size though. I know the jointing is there to provide more mobility and posing but ... it ruins the aesthetic a little for me. I wasn't too fussed on the SD version of the body when it was released and it looks quite similar to that but on a smaller scale. I am happy they are trying out a different line of dolls though.

 

It's not a trick of the camera, her arms really are short. I compared her measurements to FID and Raccoondoll and while she's overall similarly sized, her arm length is shorter. Raccoondoll lists the arms as 13.6 cm, FID original arms were 13.8 and renewal are 14.5cm. Impldoll Eva arms are only 12.5cm per the website.

I think her flaws are outweighed by her cuteness, versatility and price and I'm very very tempted. Maybe for folks that prefer very realistic dolls it could be wonky looking but I tend to enjoy dolls that are the same scale but each unique.

 

I do like her face, but I'm really not a fan of those shoulder joints, never been with any company, but these look extra unappealing to me. It doesn't even look like the arms are part of the body resulting in very broad shoulders for her frame. Also never been a fan of a neck joint, and this one in motion makes it look like she has a double....neck (not to be confused with a double chin)? The arms are also incredibly short. To be honest I am quite disappointed by it all . I've been anticipating a mature MSD line from them for a long time because I love their SD sculpts,but I really do hope they make another, more anatomical correct and aesthetically pleasing , mature MSD body eventually

 

Did anyone else end up ordering her? I'm sure it'll be several months before they start trickling in, but I cannot wait.

 

I'm definitely curious to see some owner photos!

 

There were a couple of people who ordered, but I'm guessing we won't see them for another little bit due to the event they had.

I would have liked to order during the event, but life got in the way.

 

My order's on layaway, so it'll be about 3 more months for me. But I figured that's probably well within the turn around time for an order, so I'd have been waiting anyway! I'm trying to figure out wigs and eyes. It seems like the head is somewhere around 6.3 inches. Also, shoes, since it seems like the feet are just a yay bit longer than a Minifee, for example.

 

She's my very first doll after 15 years of stalking the hobby! I just really like her nose.
I CANNOT WAIT! Thanks.

 

Did anyone get theirs yet? Anxious to see some owner pictures

 

I guess I have time to sew some possible prototype clothes now.

 

She's here! Her neck is jointed! How did I not notice that in the photos? It's very unusual, and she's strung very tightly. But I think I'm going to love the aesthetics of her jointed swan neck when she's sorted out. But. . . my doll arrived with no face up! I'll upload photos when I can get the cats off the kitchen table. I DID NOT REALIZE HOW SMOOTH RESIN IS. OH, WOW.

 

@BelleEpoque YAY! I can't wait to see some pictures of her! I'm dying of curiosity!

 

Her body is really interesting. For some reason, because of the promo pictures, I wasn't expecting her to be so busty. Her hands are so gorgeous - but it's going to be a pain to put shirts on her, I can tell! And the neck! So sculptural and statuesque! (I think the head might be a little small, proportionally, but I'm going to wait to see her in a more put together state. The Impldoll Moon head I got as an event gift looked very promising, too.) As I mentioned, I ordered her with a face-up but she didn't arrive with it. I guess that means I get to start looking for artists!

Sorry for the mess. I was in a hurry to get the pictures before the cats claimed her box. Under the cut, because she's naked as a jaybird.

Spoiler: Impldoll Eva

@BelleEpoque Oh she's wonderful! Her jointed neck is very pretty and I bet with the proper string tension it'll be SO expressive! I love her adorable face.

I can't wait to see how you end up styling her!

 

@BelleEpoque I love her! Congrats! So excited , I've been considering getting one but I just haven't seen enough owner pictures to really make up my mind. I look forward to many more pictures

 

I like her! But I don't neeeeeed her right now.... Are you planning to get one @IngieBee ?

 

I found a Eva second hand! Wooo I'm excited. I don't know if I'll use the Eva head or if I switch it out for one of my floating heads. I've never had a doll with shoulder joints like this so I'm pretty curious. I'll post when she arrives!

 

Does anyone have the fashion body and a souldoll msd head they could take a photo of it on, by chance? I am curious how such a hybrid might look like! Sometimes souldoll heads sit far up on the neck, which makes me a little wary of ordering the body for myself right now. ^^;

 

Hey people, I wondered if anyone would share photos of their Elise if you've got one? Pretty please?

 

@IngieBee ah I'm terrible - I don't think I ever replied to your request for a body review!

The body is sturdy and holds poses well without issue. But the posing, particularly in the arms, is a bit limited. A lot of my fashion scale MSD either have a rounded elbow joint (Raccoondoll) allowing the arms to cross in front of the torso, or a split elbow peanut (SartoriaJ) allowing the same motion. Sadly, my main complaint with the Impldoll body is there is just no rotation available in the elbow to allow this movement.

I really like the neck joint having movement at the base of the neck, allows for some nice natural looking head movements. The shoulders are fun but don't look as good in all outfits. I also really like that overall the body is slightly slimmer than most fashion scale dolls, it means she can wear clothes from every company and look good in them. They aren't skin tight on her, so her movement isn't limited.

I really like her as a hybrid with my jjdoll lab Hecena head, I almost can't imagine the original Eva head on this body anymore!
