Asleep Eidolon (AE Int'l) minis discussion part 2

My Mini Cordelia finally returned from her mod and face up work a few months ago. I thought I'd share her here. I think she's really quite beautiful

My Vivienne:

 

I can't wait for all the mermaids to come!

@wherethelilacsbloom what a cute girl! she's lovely.

 

Hello everyone Apologies if this question is asked a lot, but I was just wondering what wait times currently are for AE minis? I'm assuming it's the usual 3 months, but some info I found pointed to 6+ month waits! That was awhile ago but I just wanted to ask here before ordering a Mini Calandra ^^

 

My wait for my most recent body order was 4 months, buuut it didn't have a head or face up. :3

 

Well I'm very excited, I just placed my first doll order of the year at 1AM for a merman Arweil! Just waiting for a confirmation from Legend Doll, fingers crossed I ordered him in time According to the order time on the website I should be safe still.

Has anyone else ordered a mermaid yet?

 

There are two that I want - but just the heads on regular human bodies :3 I'm waiting to hear back if I can order them in that combination.

 

@wherethelilacsbloom That sounds like a lovely idea! They all have such sweet faces, they'd look great as humans. Hope you hear back about it soon.

 

Welp, I settled on ordering a Candice. I really just wanted her in human form, but I had to order the mermaid sets in order to get her head. X_X So I didnt have the budget to get them both, as I was hoping to do. Maybe an Undine head will pop up on the second-hand market sometime But I'm pretty excited about Candice!

Won't be keeping her mermaid body, but I'm thrilled with how lovely her head is.

 

I ordered an Arweil back in November. I've been desperately searching for wait times since lol. Seems like no one buys from this company or something. I guess i'm probably in for at least 4 months? Maybe a bit more with Chinese New Year taking up this month *sigh* anyone got their mermaids yet?

 

@DontShoottheDucks I ordered an Arweil as well, though on layaway. I haven't finished paying him off yet I couldn't find any up to date info on wait times either so I think it's definitely safe to assume we have a 4 month+ wait ahead of us.

I wonder why more people don't order from Asleep Eidolon, their dolls are all really lovely. I can only assume it's because AE don't have many dealers so maybe a lot of people just haven't heard of them before?

 

@Magical Rin I guess that could be? It's really too bad. Glad i should at least see a few more merfolk soon!

I already have everything planned for my Arweil and i've always wanted a merdoll so the wait has been pretty agonizing despite it not being as long as dollzone yet lol

 

@DontShoottheDucks The forum always needs more merdolls! lol

It's been a dream of mine to own a merman doll since I entered the hobby in 2009, so I'm excited to get mine as well! Can't wait to see what you do with him.

I've ordered all my bits and pieces for him as well; ordering through Legend Doll made that easier to just add his wig, eyes, etc to the same order. Oh god, I hope the wait isn't as long as DollZone/DollChateau

 

@Magical Rin i will definitely post a picture when he's all done!

The wig is all i don't have. I was supposed to get it commissioned but the person i asked seems to have dropped off the planet so i'll likely have to make it myself when he gets here. Which will be.. an adventure. I've never made an updo besides buns before lol
I plan to do his faceup myself too. Man i wish he was here haha

 

@DontShoottheDucks I've never made a wig before at all so I applaud your efforts! I'm sure it'll turn out great.

Ooh, I look forward to seeing what you do with his face up. I chose to get his company face up myself. What colour did you get his tail in, the one in his company photos or different?

 

@Magical Rin Thanks! I'll need the encouragement lol

I wanted to get the rainbow tail but there was no way i'd be able to do that extra like 90 or however much it was. So i got him in snow white and plan to paint it in pastel colors. I was tempted to get the company faceup, it's so cute! But i had already planned some 80s makeup for him haha. I hope someone who ordered before us pops in with an update soon

 

@DontShoottheDucks The rainbow tail was so pretty~ but yeah, the price definitely was a killer. I look forward to seeing how you blush it and his face up too, the 80s concept sounds really interesting. I couldn't resist his cute default face up

I didn't order mine until January 1st so I've got a long wait ahead of me yet. I'll be keeping a close eye out for any wait time updates that's for sure.

 

Hey! I ordered an Arweil on Oct 29 and am still in the waiting stage; hope that helps! I was searching around for average wait times and I found nothing, so I suppose we're the guinea pigs this time around :' ) Excited to see everyone's mers when they come in!

 

Nothing to say about wait times, but someone on the BJD Addicts page on fb has received their doll with a rainbow tail

Log into Facebook | Facebook
I hope I can post this here.

 

@Magical Rin same here

@Koru oh thanks! That gives somewhat of an idea

@Mew-Lidia9 the link didn't work for me, but that may be because i don't have a facebook. That's great someone got theirs! Did they say how long it took?

 

@DontShoottheDucks I asked them, and they ordered in November!
