Iplehouse Minis Discussion Part 1

Apr 26, 2008

    1. Thank you~!!! ^^ So sad that Kirika can't go out much~ >.< Being realskin and all... *sigh*

      OH GOD... THERE WAS AN EARTHQUAKE JUST NOW... T.T Maybe I should bring all my babies outside! DX

       
    2. Oh dear, you ok? Was it bad (we live in earthquake country too)
       
    3. It was a small one, but enough to make my monitor shuddered... =_=''
      It scared me... My room is on the 2nd floor, and the pool is right beneath my balcony.
      If anything happens, I'll jump with all my dolls to the pool~ >.<

       
    4. Depending on where you live, sometimes staying indoors is best... just make sure you're not where things can fall on you :) Glad it wasn't too bad :) ::hugs::
       
    5. oooh im glad youre okay!!! O....O stay safe!!! and haha, i would save the dolls too XD I always grab all my dolls and take them to the basement when it looks like tornado weather XDDD
       
    6. Aww... Tornado weather!! O_O Uhm...
      I'm most afraid when something like that happens while I am not with my dolls... T.T
       
    7. It's funny, I'm scared to death of tornados, but earthquakes don't bother me, LOL.

      I can't help myself, I love the Lati blue Rucas and Kahn faces so much, I wish there were more photos of them next to IH girls.... anyone have a Rucas especially (since Kahn has an even smaller face?) that they can put next to the girls (Tania especially?) Thanks, just in case someone can :)
       
    8. Why not try a hybrid doll? Rucas head on a JID BOY body? XD
       
    9. She is SO pretty! :aheartbea
       
    10. LOL, maybe i could peddle to banana republic for them to send me a joshua-sized suit?


      Fransyung
      Awww, cute cute cute dolls! Height comparison is also useful.
      I love the darker skin in contrast, too!
       
    11. Lol, this thread does move fast! I just missed part of a day and I've a lot to catch up on! xD


      Aw thanks! I love them to bits. :aheartbea

      Thank you! I am still in the process of perfecting those two shirt patterns for fit, but I think I've got it down! :D And I love the second shot too -- it made me wish they made winking heads and hands doing the 'victory' sign. Because Asalie would totally do that. :)

      Yay another Jerome! Can't wait to see spam when he gets here!

      HOMG. My wallet would weep if that happened. I'd love to see a dark tan girl as well. Since I started collecting dolls, I've gravitated more towards dolls with darker skin, and/or darker hair (or I tend to put darker hair on dolls). I think it may be because I didn't have very many dolls like that as a child? I had mostly the blonde/blue combo.

      Aw, that is just too cute! :aheartbea


      ---------------------

      And in other news... perhaps some of you may recall me posting that my mother and her friend inadvertently convinced me (for sewing purposes) that Asalie's and Kale's cousin should be bumped closer to the top of my list of dolls that will eventually be coming home. Well, not only did she jump to the top of the list, she jumped into my shopping cart when I was deciding on whether or not to buy Asalie and Kale some clothes from Iplehouse last night. I've been in the hobby now for what? 4 or 5 months now, and I've already made my first impulse purchase. :doh
       
    12. Awww, they are so cute. I like that they are agreeable and close to each other :aheartbea
       
    13. When youre happy with it, will you be selling shirts? I'll be more than happy to make a fat order when i have cash!

      and haha, impulse family growth... i can't wait till im at that stage. XD
       
    14. Oh YAY! What sculpt did you order?
       
    15. I would, but it doesn't look like the resin is even close to matching from what I've seen, thoug resin changes all the time... I am thinking of seeing if I can't get a head... then I'd know if I can get it to match, if not, then I could get the body the next ordering period... so yah, it's one of the options I'm kicking around... But I'm worried the face will look too small next to Tania... but I so love that face! The body isn't bad as far as size goes, just definitely not as nice as a JID boy's, so that's more the reason for thinking of getting a JID body, they pose far more naturally.

      Wouldn't that be too cool?!?!?!

      It's always been difficult to get anything but blond bombshells, especially when I was a kid, ugh!

      Yah, a girl would also be great, I was thinking of a particular character that's a boy :aheartbea:aheartbea:aheartbea

      Hee hee hee, Can't wait to see her too! Yaay!

      So I ordered some shoes from an Ebay seller a bazillion years ago, and they finally came on Friday! I was getting pretty frustrated at the shipping time (over a month), luckily they weren't some huge priority of mine.

      I was so busy this weekend I didn't play with Yeyo! *sniffle* but I did snap pics of the kicks. They are actually a little clunky on her, but still cute none-the-less. :sweat
       
    17. Oh those are cute, Lorti. Little kitty shoes :)


      Also, purposeless spam. I took some pictures today and this is the only one that turned out. :|

      [​IMG]
       

    18. aweeee!!! its a great photo though! shes so pretty :-)))))
       
    19. Well, dang. I was gone a few hours and now I've got even more to catch up on! xDD

      Thanks! I love it too... I think they're mostly agreeable because they don't see any sense in fighting over stupid things. Logical bunch, their family is. Although they do rather like to fight physically, its in their blood. So they do practice the art of beating the crap out of each other quite often. :sweat

      xD Yes, its sort of half impulse growth though... I'd planned on getting her, just not this soon. Also, PM'd you. ;)

      I ordered a Basic Tania Normal Skin with default face up, mobility joint, and small bust. The wig with heavy bangs that Asalie has been wearing actually belongs to Ariin (Tania) -- we realized this when I plopped it on Asalie's head.

      Dollies are definitely more diverse now, which I appreciate... but my wallet, not so much actually. xD I'd love to see a boy and a girl, especially in that Special Dark Brown skin tone that Kamau first came out in. :drool My secret dream is "I" in the light brown skin tone -- the one that the Strongman Luo was released in. :aheartbea

      KITTY SHOES. <3 I just love those pictures of just her feet, they're so cute!

      I know the feeling, but that image is lovely. I love the combo of her hairstyle and outfit with her sweet face.
       
    20. ThrowMyFaith, that's a really cute picture and I like seeing her profile :D Thanks :D
       
    21. Thank you~~~ :aheartbea:aheartbea

      Welcome to the club!!! I bought my twins on a whim... Regrets? NONE! :D
      What I can say to you... is CONGRATS!~ :aheartbea Which one did you buy?

      Kazahaya, that's my Ryu head, is Lati compatible, and he goes very well into my Iple House YID Boy Body (owned by my former Iori)... :sweat The difference is almost unnoticeable... They're a 90% match! But of course, you're right, resin colors change. But you already have an IPH at home, so owning a Rucas is fine, just try to hybrid later! :D I am curious, too!
       
    22. I got a Basic Tania, who will be named Ariin (AH-Rin). ^^ I have a wig for her already, but no permanent eyes. I've got some 14mm cheap-y acrylics like what Asalie and Kale have as temporary eyes. I'm pretty sure I'm going to go with brown eyes for her; I think the combo of dark hair and eyes would be a lovely contrast to the Normal Skin.

      I don't think I'll regret getting her, since she was on my wish list... I just need to find a place for her! I'll have to see if I can find another little chair like what Asalie and Kale have, or see if i can find or make something else. I need to make her some clothes too, since I bought her instead of clothing. xD
       
    23. LOL~ Bought her instead of clothing! :sweat You're right... Clothing cost a lot these days... If we save up from buying clothes for dolls, we can buy dolls instead!~ :|
       
    24. Really? Oh... man... hum... they could even share at first for a while.... oh my, I'm getting excited :doh:fangirl:
       
    25. or shoes for that matter....

      hmm, instant way to save for armand, wendy and tim gunn! lol
       
    26. Ingie...
      Here's my Kaz on an IPH YID Boy Body... His head is blushed with orange/pink... But you can see that his forehead matches the body very well~ *^^* And I didn't blush the forehead (of course!). Maybe just a little bit darker than the body (Iori is more yellow than my twins because he's a 2008 resin, the twins are closer matches to Kaz than Iori!). This is taken with SLR Camera, no blitz, just sunlight from the balcony window! *^^*

      SORRY FOR THE SPAM... m(_ _)m

       
    27. And Kaz's head is a Lati doll? Wow, that's a great match, thank you!
       
    28. Nope... Kaz = Migidoll RYU, ver.A (Lati compatible, meaning 100% match with Lati NS resin)... :D
       
    29. Nope... Kaz = Migidoll RYU, ver.A (Lati compatible, meaning 100% match with Lati NS resin)... :D
       
    30. Oh, gosh I've been so confused! That's why ... Ok... so now I just need about $130, LOL so I can buy the head! Then I can work on the JID body! Wow, if they fit together.. yummy!

      thank you so much!!!
       
    31. fransyung,

      Is Kaz on a normal skin IPH YID Boy Body or white skin? Kaz is soo handsome! Is the RYU head normal skin as well? Btw, How to order from Migi doll? Can I order RYU head with face up?

      Kaz's face up is soo hot!!
       
    32. Agreed, very nice faceup :) I'd have to think about doing a hybrid though because it would add about $150 to the cost... really need more pictures with JID girls :)
       
    33. Quirked and IngieBee,

      Just an update to let you guys know, after much convincing, my hubby agreed to get me an IPH Ryan!!! Kyaaaaa!!!! However, just normal skin though. He said the real skin costs way too much for a doll...sigh.....

      I am still very much happy to be able to get a Ryan!! wooohoo!!! He will be my Xmas present!!! Can't wait for December! I hope by then Iplehouse might have real skin Ryan on sale or discount..hahahaha......dreaming......

      thank you soo much for the wonderfull advice!!
       
    34. First of all... Congrats on your Ryan baby! :aheartbea When I got to Singapore next time, maybe we can meet and bring our IPH babies! :D To order from Migi, you have to join the board first :

      Migi's site : http://migidoll.com/

      1. Go to the order board here :
      http://migidoll.com/bbs/zboard.php?id=order
      You will see 2 tiny stars (**) on the upper right hand of the board. Click on the first one to join. The second star is for LOGIN. :) It's all in English so you don't need to worry!

      2. You can order by watching the order date, then write to Migi in her Q&A board... with the details of your order (please read her notice topics first!). :D

      My Kaz is Normal Skin, version A (Lati/Leeke compatible). Starting next year, Migi will produce her own bodies, so the skin will no longer divided into version A and B (VOLKS compatible). :) The body Kaz is using is from Iple House Mars SE (Normal Skin, 2008), it's yellower than the new 2009 IPH resin (like my twins).

      PS : Migi doesn't offer face up service at the moment, but it may change when her website becomes bigger and she starts offering bodies for the heads...!

       
    35. oooh!!! congrats on your ryan!!! :D exciting!!! ryan is SOOO cute, i really thought about getting him when he first came out!
      and i agree fransyung your ryu is a very pretty boy X3


      ah only on day two! why does this feel so much longer than all my other dolls, hahaha. My lance took two months and I thought I was gonna die XD Thank god iplehouse is faster with their basics, or at least, so the feedback seems to say XD

      *already checking the site twice a day*

      im doomed.
       
    36. Woot! padme79, that's great, you're gonna love him, there just isn't anything NOT to love about him, even in NS :D I love my boy!

      All great info, fransyung! Thanks again!

      Good news, my seamstress made clothes are being mailed out today, but it's slow poke mail. I should have it in 21-23 days... barely in time, so my fingers are crossed that it'll arrive safe and sound :)
       
    37. Elodie finally has her faceup :)
      I can't stop staring at her face, lol
      picture:

      [​IMG]
      Iplehouse = :aheartbea
       
    38. You must be so pleased - she's beautiful :aheartbea
       
    39. Vintage, she's heavenly! i totally dont blame you for staring at her face! i think i would, too.

      Can someone show a YID next to a JID for reference? I'm curious. I mean, IH shows EID next to JID, so i know how that looks, but i reeeeally want to see JID and YID. or all three next to each other. I'lll love whomever does forever :aheartbea
       
    40. jayn & IndigoFrogs,
      thank you for your kind comments ^^
       
    41. So, I got a few leekeworld items the other day. The shoes are a bit out of proportion but fit... though I couldn't for the life of me get my girl to stand in the high heels... but that might just be me being a poor poser.

      Exuse the fact that I can't fotograph to save my life...

      I absolutely adore the red eyes, she had the defaults before and somehow she seems more mine now.

      http://www.flickr.com/photos/14579485@N04/4096543920/in/photostream/

      I really like this wig, though the bangs go on forever... if I work up the courage I'll trim them down.


      For some reason my pictures won't show, so I'm including a link instead
       
    42. Ciantha, your girl is cute! i like the braids on her a lot.
       
    43. Vintage, she really is awesome! Great faceup, so light and natural, I love it :D

      Ciantha, love both wigs, she is a cutie! Nice skirt and shirt too! Would love to see the other stuff you got :) Hopefully you've posted on the JID clothing thread... I'll go look now :D
       
    44. today is the first day of my saving up for Ryan!:D
       
    45. Ooooh, how long will it take?

      I'm wanting more than I can have myself, LOL... I would like to purchase Tania and Jerome or Joshua (not sure which) together as basics on layaway, but it's just over what I can afford in monthly payments (actually, any amount is more than I can afford, I just play with my credit cards instead of letting them go down with each payment, isn't that awful?)

      And my husband is threatening to pay off my credit cards (so he doesn't have to make payments anymore... but that cuts off my only fun money, so I don't want him to :...()
       
    46. omg O___O
      Im saving up 470
      and I only have 20 to start off with....:doh:(:...(
       
    47. LOL, isn't it a killer?!! LOL, I can't save up properly, as I'm too impatient. But good for you! You'll get there. Small amounts of extra money comes also seems to come here and there, and when it happens, just add it to the pile, you'll get there faster than you thought :D
       
    48. I hope so... I did this when I saved up for Scarlett so I hope a little bit before the holiday I can order him:sweat
       
    49. Oh that'd be so cool, and then you can spam here for the rest of us :D Yaay!
       
    50. Actually I can... But I must ask my friend to bring her Reiji (G.Soori) along... :)
      My Iori has already been packed inside his bag for a journey to the US,
      so I can't use him as comparison! :sweat Sorry!!! I'll ask Reiji to come over then!
       
    51. you know I will! lol I cant stop taking pics of Scarlett alone, it;ll be more fun when she has a boyfriend!:D
       
    52. I'm the kind of person who has to plan thing, wants to know what is going to happen even though the plans always get messed up, LOL. So I'm reviewing the dolls I want... and I'm playing with the numbers etc... It looks like after X-mas, if I can still manipulate numbers, LOL, I want to order Tania. I'd love to order her with Jerome, but that's just a little too much for monthly payments... and it would mean no wig or outfit. So I'd get Tania with the cat outfit and boots (if they're still around). If I should get money for X-mas and can wing it, I'll try doing Tania and Jerome and forget the clothes till another time :P

      Then, in the late spring/early summer, I'm gonna go for a Lati blue Rucas. I'm just too in love with him not to get him. If he doesn't work out well with Tania, she can have Jerome and I'll let my minifee have him, LOL.

      Sigh, I hope I can play with money in the future to keep this up... LOL
       
    53. oh wow
      Im still in college and need a few other things before I can really start working on ALL the dolls I want:sweat
      I want like, a whole army! lol
      but for right now Ill be happy with just Scarlett and her boyfriend:) and then I can work on Scarletts family and so on... xD I hope:sweat
       
    54. I hope I'll stop wanting so much when my MNF girls get here! I think that's part of the problem, I have a body for my DES coming after a year and a half, and a whole MNF Lishe, that'll be two girls to hang out with Fred. I might be happy then?? But then again, Fred will want a buddy.... LOL Oh boy, it really never ends :( I have a tiny army, and I'm just waiting for more tiny boys for my crew... Oh dear...
       
    55. @Fransyung: Yep, if we save up from buying clothes, we can buy more dolls. They'll just have to be naked. xD

      @IngieBee:
      That would be awesome if the Lati Blue boy heads worked with the JID boy body, and looked good in scale with JIDs in general. :D

      @Padme79: Congratulations on your Ryan! He is lovely, no matter what skintone. I've not seen one in the White Skin, but he's likely just as wonderful. :aheartbea

      @Jellyfish: I'm totally checking the site at least twice a day too, even though I know its going to be at least 3 weeks before that status is going to even think about changing. xD

      @Vintage: Elodie is gorgeous! I love how pretty and soft she looks. :D

      @MeowMeow: Good luck with saving up for your Ryan! ^^
       
    56. I want tan and dark tan JID's (whines) Do you think it would help to ask for them in the Q&A's? But knowing my luck, if they come out, they'll come out when I am broke and committed to paying for something else for the next 6 months :(
       

    57. Here it is! :D Reiji and Arvon!! :aheartbea Reiji belongs to DarkRu~ :)
      This foto also belongs to DarkRu~ :aheartbea Reiji always says Ave is his little brother...
      Sorry I didn't bring Ark! :sweat Someday I'll take pics of all three!!! :aheartbea

      [​IMG]

      PS : Please excuse the messiness in my shop~!! :sweat
       
    58. Hahahah~ nee-san O,O i have Mion and Ark... Rei is being a big bro here XD Ave looks so tiny~ XD
       
    59. OH MY. :o
      He is an EXTRA big brother! xDD
