Pygmalion Dolls

I'll have more official links to the announcements soon but just a heads up, the last ordering period will take place
April 12th, Friday 2024 9PM to April 30th, Tuesday 11:59PM Korean time (UTC+9)
All master molds will be destroyed afterwards, so if you want anything at all, this will be the final chance to get them.

 

Thank you for the update and heads-up about how this seriously is the absolute last chance to order.

 

I agree, thank you for the kind notices. Pygmalion sculpts have always stood out to me, with such beautiful classical lines. I will definitely have to fill a few gaps in my collection

I hope she always feels welcome in the doll world
Wishing all the best to the artist, and much love and creativity in their new artistic endeavour.

 

Oh, what a shame! They're such pretty dolls. I wish the artist success in whatever she takes on next.

Perhaps it's just me, but I can't even get the website to load properly? It keeps redirecting. I guess I'll keep an eye out for updates.

 

Hello, here's the official announcement for the last ordering period

Link

You can reach the website (some images seem to be broken for the intro page but otherwise should operate correctly)

on mobile: PYGMALION SHOP

on PC/Laptop: PYGMALION DOLLS

Let me know if there's any issues or questions.

 

Perfect! Thank you!

 

I guess it's time for me to order Eita! Very sad that they'll be closing, their face sculpts are so lovely and unique.

 

Thank you for this last preorder!

For me, its not working both on mobile version or pc version, everything is ''sold out'' and I can't add anything to the cart...

 

Presale for international starts tomorrow.

 

oh oopsie! I read it opened on the 12th but I didn't see it started at 9pm, I assumed it would start at 12am
sorry! my bad

 

am i the only one who doesn't have access to Han and Chen pages ?

 

I’m having an absolutely terrible time trying to do anything on the website, both mobile and on my laptop. Not accepting my password, not loading my cart properly so I can edit the quantities (I’ve accidentally added about a million Noah heads), not letting me checkout as it’s saying I haven’t not got something in my address filled out, etc. Hopefully it’ll all get sorted out in due course.

 

same
i was able to log in tho... but my cart has been emptied a few times

i wanted to pay my order today to get my heads in may (bc i won't be home in june) but i don't think i'll be able to do that in time ¯\_ (ツ)_/¯

 

It’s working now. Try again?

 

still not working for me, if i try to open Han or Chen pages it says : "Only Dealer can purchase the selected product. Please check your customer level."

 

I was able to buy Kyle. Everything worked but I had to log in first.

 

I’m using Han_head for Han. Does that work for you @Ho.taru ?
All the heads DOLLS - HEAD

 

I did it!!
i didn't use your link but thanks for your help anyway!!

bought 5 heads tho, i want to cry a little

 

We apologize for the issues! The only thing gone was the English URL so we did not foresee so many things going wrong

If you are having any issues with the website, we are offering an alternative way to order.
Please send us your name, address, order (the item / skin color / number of items — i.e. 1 Ha head, White) and PayPal address and we will send you an invoice.
We apologize for the unexpected inconvenience.
The email address to send orders is: [email protected]

 

Hi, I want to know: what about the Doll's ID number which is registered on the company website to the owner's name? Will all that be gone too once the sale stops? Does it mean the Doll ID number no longer links to the owner's name?

 

@hisuida - I'm curious about the same matter as @Izam above. A few years ago I purchased a Kyle and Robin head through the website in white resin (their arrival photo is posted earlier in this thread), but I no longer have the original containers they came with. I have their certificate cards, but the reference id numbers were an additional proof and measure against counterfeit dolls. (And, although I intend to keep them, the doll's ids was an additional thing a potential buyer could check to ensure their authenticity.)

 

In the mailing list email sent out, it said: “After all the orders are completed, all after-service and support will stop. All the master molds will be destroyed. The website will be closed including the authentication website, though you may email us to confirm authenticity which we reserve the right to stop without warning at any time.”

 

Thanks @Kurosakura, as the email stated, all of the website operations will stop after all the orders are sent out.
However, I personally plan on supporting authentication as long as possible, so feel free to email us at [email protected] as we will still maintain the ordering / authenticity information database as long as we can.

 

Your boys are so beautiful!
I'm tempted to buy a head Ha. But I have a problem. In terms of aesthetics, I like the Iplehouse bodies (SID or EID model). Does anyone have a Pygmalion head on one of these bodies? I would be grateful for a photo of the whole figure.
I don't want a body over 70cm. My current boys are between 62-65cm and 70 is the absolute ceiling for me for future boys.

 

I sadly don't have pics to show you but I once tried my pygmalion heads on a SID body and the proportions were really good in general and especially good for the neck and shoulders area!
the iplehouse bodies always look kinda "shorter" in terms of general proportions (if you know what i mean) but if you like this aesthetic then the match would be perfect for your taste

 

@Ho.taru
Thank you. Do you think the SID neck will need sanding/cutting?

 

in my memory the neck fitted perfectly, no need for sanding or cutting...
pygmalion heads can go on necks up to 12cm (except Libra who has a smaller neck hole)

 

Can you think of another body for this head? My ideal would be 67-68 cm (muscular type).

 

I can’t speak to it’s compatibility yet, but I’ve ordered a Supia 65cm boy body to use for my future Noah head. Based on the measurements I think it should work out okay. I didn’t want anything huge.

 

I have a Kyle and Robin head from a couple years ago - the Kyle head has a slightly smaller range for sitting on a neck than the Robin sculpt. I found that Kyle didn't look quite right enough for me on Dollshe Mystic or Dollshe Arsene bodies (although Arsene was slightly smaller and could work - nothing a turtleneck or precise angling for pictures couldn't fix). I like a doll's head to fit smoothly though, without the top of the neck jutting at the back or the sides. However, the Robin head fit very nicely on the Arsene body neck - it's a little wider. So I think it depends on the sculpt.

I'm going to get an Angell Studio body for Kyle with a 10.5cm neck, which I think will suit him a lot better than the 11-ish of Dollshe.

 

maybe you can look at DFA and DFH? I think they have 68cm bodies with nice proportions and they do colour matching if you need that

 

When I’m in the market for a new/different body, I often go check out the doll parts (bodies) section of LegendDoll.net’s website. Might be worth a browse. The primary downside being that none of the Korean companies are on there, but the Chinese makers are getting better and better with their creations and can be purchased for much less if you’re able to use TaoBao to buy directly from said makers.

 

I second the above. Also, if ordering directly via TaoBao is daunting, Christina at Clover Singing is able to help and I find her fees for coordinating to be very reasonable. (I think she charged 10% last I made an order, but I'm not positive and would have to go back and math the math to check.)

 

When I visit the Pygmalion Doll site, I notice that everything is written in Korean- which I cannot read... is there a link to an English site?

@Mahgiep Thank you!! By the way, I know you own Libra and I believe you have her on an Iple body? Do you by any chance know if the Libra head would work on a smaller sized SD girl body no taller than 60cm?

 

I don’t think so. I have my Libra on a Dollshe 26F (think Amanda, not Diana). The neck is 10cm. It’s like a male head with a female neck hole.

 

@Mahgiep Thank you for your reply! Most 60cm girl bodies have quite thin necks, so I can see that would probably be a problem. Your Libra girl is lovely btw

 

Thank you! Yes the thin necks would make her head heavy.

Here are photos:
Kathy P on Instagram: "Pony came to visit today. She and Alejandro are off to Japan soon. When they travel they are both very physical. She couldn’t stop blushing when she talked about it, so I didn’t ask for details! They both had tough histories, so I think it’s great to see them blush about each other in an innocent way #pygmalionlibra #dollshe26fbody #newdollwig #newdollshoes #dollstory #asianballjointeddolls #balljointeddolls #balljointeddollphotography #bjds #bjdsofinstagram #bjdstagram #dollsofinstagram #dollstagram #dollphotography #bjdphotography"

 

Hi! it's me I have Libra on an Iplehouse SID body


sorry for the low quality of the pic

the Libra head is big and fits on most of my boys bodies... I think a small 60cm body doesn't work so well with her (I tried her on my aprilstory girl body and it looked disproportionate)
even the SID body seems a bit small for her sometimes
The dollshe 26F works well for her but it's quite impossible to get one of those now isn't it

 

I’m just curious, does anyone else have a Hana head. It was only offered a short while as a collab with 357partment (faceup artists). I believe it was offered as a 1/4 head with faceup or a blank 1/3 head. I arranged for a faceup for the 1/3 based on the 1/4 offerings. I have not seen another.

@Mahgiep The Dollshe body seem like a good option for your Libra head- and your girl looks lovely wearing that ombre wig!!

@Ho.taru Ahhh I remember seeing your girl on Instagram when I was searching for pics of the Libra sculpt! She's gorgeous! Your photo of Libra on the Iple body was very helpful- thank you for sharing!!

 

A photo of my sweet boy, Daiichi- Eita head on Dollmore body.

Always love seeing Daiichi!

 

It's a beautiful sculpt! I have never seen it on sale on Pygmalion website so I must have missed it
Same for the Allen sculpt who is super nice looking too

You're welcome! and thanks ! ^^ I've not seen many Libra sculpts posted anywhere which is a shame, she's beautiful!
Your Daiichi boy is so very handsome

 

Thank you @Mahgiep and @Ho.taru for your kind words

Sorry for all the questions, but for those of you who own Chen- what body do you use for him?

 

I have Chen on the Pygmalion body. My love/hate body. I ruined all the ankles on my three bodies by making them sit on my shelves. The ankles are now completely floppy so they are now on stands which works fine. I adore their aesthetic and can get them to pose a bit but I would never be able to fix them with the metal and tube inside them.

Kathy P on Instagram: "Hee Do and Chen on the way to the Yet to Come BTS concert in Busan. #btsconcert #army #pygmalionchen #fandollyue #dollstory #asianballjointeddolls #balljointeddolls #bjds #dollsofinstagram #dollphotography #bjdphotography"

Hana was never on the website. She only appeared on 357partment’s IG for a promotion for an exhibit in their early days.

 

@Mahgiep Your Chen is lovely- it's such a handsome sculpt, isn't it?!! Is the Chen head slightly bigger in size than the Eita head? I didn't know the Pygmalion body had issues with the ankle part, that's too bad! Glad that you can have them in stands instead!

 

@Lotte Rotten Rotten I don’t think the Chen head is bigger. Actually on the website, it says Eita’s head circumference is 22cm and Chen is 21cm. The ankles were fine until I made them stay in a sitting position for weeks on my shelves. I guess the giant metal wiring stretched out. If they had been upright, the ankles would have been fine. Live and learn!

 

Has anyone heard any news from Pygmalion? I saw they posted on Instagram a little while back about getting more orders than anticipated so there would be delays for anyone who ordered later on, but didn’t respond to my comment asking about whether they would be able to keep to their promise of shipping out the paid in full April 12th head orders before today.

 

Hmm.. Let me ask her and see what the status of orders are - the instagram account is managed by Pygmalion so she may have some difficulties responding (especially with the language barrier).

 

@hisuida thank you for asking!!

 

Sorry about the delay guys, for those of you who ordered on April 12th and paid in full (head only orders) your order will be sent out today (in Korea time so it may have already been sent out) or possibly tomorrow if there are more orders than she can handle in 1 day. Hopefully you got tracking numbers!
Pygmalion said she is so sorry about the delay (she got way more orders than expected and as you know, she is without any help this time - she had an employee helping her cast before but they're gone now )

 

Thank you very much for the update, @hisuida. Got my tracking number (found it under my order information. I was anticipating receiving a notification via email.)

 

thank you for inquiring about it!
i'm eagerly waiting now

 

My parcel is moving now!

 

My boys made it to New York City today. There was a delay of a few days before they moved.

 

My Ha wants to congratulate all of the new guys showing up.


Yes, that's his happy face,

 

mine are of course held by customs for ransom ha ha ha

 

Got my Kyle and Mathew today. Plus a gift pair of jeans!
I did Kyle’s faceup already but haven’t posted anywhere. He is very gentle.
