20–39cm Dolls Red demon princess (Alien Research Institute red oni sculpt)

Some of you might remember my boxopening from several months ago where I showed the two oni heads I had bought from Mercari Japan, made by a Taobao artist whose name translates to Alien Research Institute according to the Mercari secondhand store I bought them from. Now a little while ago they suddenly had a few more in stock, including this girl who came with an actual matching body from the same artist. Now I've been wanting a red devil girl for ages and I love this head sculpt, so I got her. She arrived last week. Boxopening was done in the evening so excuse the poor picture quality, I had to use flash at some point to be able to show the details.

Obligatory box pic. Big box too, there was a wig and some off topic pet dolls in there too.

Hmm. No doll box, that was disappointing, and her head came separately?

Turned out the headbox just held her horns and the keychain that ARI dolls come with, the whole doll was in this burrito.

At least all the pointy bits were protected.

And there she is! Thanks to those massive feet she can stand on my duvet covered mattress and not fall. As was remarked by the seller, she is covered in sanding marks that show up quite badly under flash. They're a little less noticeable in daylight, but I will need to find a way to fix them anyway. Her color is "tungsten red" according to the listing and she stands about 34cm I guess?

She's got some junk in the trunk O.o And I love those legs. She can't bend them more than like 45 degrees at the knee though, so she can't really sit unfortunately, except with her legs sticking out in front of her.

Big peets.

Her hands are beautiful with impressively sculpted long nails.

Her color in normal light. I actually had a harder time getting her to stand on my dresser (wood with a thin cloth overtop) than on my bed, I guess the cloth was slippery. Also she has a tendency to buckle at the hips.

And a closeup with some eyes. Her faceup is sadly damaged as is more often the case with dolls from this particular secondhand store, so I'll have to wipe it at some point, but I love her so much.

Thanks for watching!
