Custom House Little Junior and Junior discussion part 1

Hi there. Congrats on ordering your Yeondu dolls - they are adorable.

Being a CH Junior, she is MSD (1/4) sized. I believe she is 42cm tall.

Here are Custom House's measurements for their Junior line:

Other measurements can be found here:

Hope this helps you!

 

Thanks! It really did help me! I am off to order shoes, clothes and wigs for them ^^

 

Just wondering, does anyone have any pictures of a Luts KD and a CH Junior?
I wanted to see the size and comparison ^.^;

Links are welcome too, thanks

 

Hey guys, do you think that this, this or this could fit a male Little Junior? :/ I'm comparing measurements and there are differences... Has anyone had any luck with Dollmore MSD clothes like this?

I don't really like any of their Narsha clothes, which apparently fit..

 

Damasquerade - MSD clothes from dollmore are BIG already, so I don't think they're going to fit little juniors. They barely fit slim minis or regular MSD, theyre so baggy and big!

Does anyone have any idea about wigs for the GIRL LJs? THey have smaller heads than the boys -- I want to try and make a wig, but I don't know if size 7" will fit? (base cap). Since 6-7 is what they're listed as, will a 7-7.5 be too big?

 

Hey, are Yeonu and Yeondu the same head-sculpt but on different-gender bodies?

Oh, also, how big are Jr's feet? What size should I look at if I want to buy shoes from another company?

 

Oh really? Dayum! I must have just made it up in my head that Dollmore dolls were slim minis Thanks so much for stopping me from wasting my money lol.

But now there's no clothes I have my eye on for my incoming two boys D:

Sand3: Try clicking on the FAQ link up the top-right of Customhouse's site. There are measurements for Juniors listed there

 

Oh, I see, they are a standard mini size, Gigglegeek had them listed as 48cm so I got confused. Still looking for a confirmation on whether Yeonu and Yeondu are the same head though.

 

sand3: I'm pretty sure they're the same mold, the face-up on the website makes them look different ^.^;

 

Thank you!

 

My LJ Icarus just arrived, and while I love him to pieces, his arms are strung so tight! I can't get the right one to stay up straight from the shoulder, and the left barely bends at the elbow. His head doesn't want to tilt back, either, just down. Do they loosen up a bit? Should i just give his joints a workout? I noticed a flake of resin came out of his elbow, similar to what one would see when doing seam removal.

I don't see why Little Juniors are more popular. They're ADORABLE. I'm utterly smitten with my boy- I just have to get him a name. And more clothes. And a faceup.

 

LilTigre - I think the heads on the little juniors are just that way. My darea (on a boy body) is like that too, and if you look in the promo pictures, theyre all kinda looking down... i think its just the sculpts/necks. Her arms came really tight too, but her legs are so loose!

 

can I see pictures of Junior Ai girls or boys next to other dolls? SD or MSD is fine. Thanks!

 

Spam? Pweeeeeeeaseeee??!!!!

 

Seeing as you asked here's my new (to me) Irang, she's a older unique Junior-ai with faceup by Rolling Pumpkin. As she's only just arrived she has no clothes or wig of her own, so her wig here is too big and she's wearing a vintage doll's dress

 

I'm looking at getting a Custom House Junior, and I was wondering about the yellowing for their resin. What does the color fade into because I've heard some dolls go green and if anybody here has had bad experience with their resin?

If anyone could put up pictures that would be greatly appreciated.

 

I'm also interested in the Custom House Juniors, but I hear their pose ability is HORRIBLE.
Is it true, are the really that hard to work with? Or is just their older bodies (if there are older bodies) because the posts I've searched are a few years old.

Thanks in advance.

Oh!
And aren't Yeondu and Yeonu the cutest?
They'd make the best twins...

 

Glueing and sueding usually works wonders with posing. Personally, I've paid full price for so many dolls with awful posing, I'm happy to buy one (or two) cheaply for half price. The only thing is that I wish all the Little Juniors and Juniors weren't always grouped together. I'm interested in both lots and it would be easier to scroll through and decide which one I liked best without having to look at both lots. Even in the database, they're together. I'm interested in darea and one of the LJ boys. I'm trying to decide which one I like best but it's hard when they're spread out. Sigh. I'll probably end up getting one of each. I wish customhouse had more LJ girls.

 

Thanks!
I appreciate the reply!
^_^
Yeah, the LJ and Juniors being grouped together bothers me too.
I always get confused searching for photos, they look so alike up close!

I also had another question (I'm such a worry-wort):
I've read the feedback thread for Custom House and there seemed to be a LOT of problems with the 2009 batches, especially during sale events.
I was planning on getting a Yeondu and one of the Junior Boys, but now I'm kind of scared?
Are the juniors more likely to be defected? Has anyone had this problem with their dolls?

 

I just received my two Little Juniors today - absolutely no problems.

And just a note on clothing options: I went ahead and bought the MSD - Roll-Up Skinny Pants(Black) that I was asking about in the previous page. They fit a Little Junior boy fine as three-quarter length pants, and come in other colours as well. I took the belt off because it was a little too bulky around the waist. It buttons quite snugly at waist. So based on this, I think with careful selection, keeping in mind the height and girth differences (the picture on an MSD shows the pants only coming to the knee, whereas these come halfway down the calf on an LJ) some close-fitting, short Dollmore MSD pants could fit Little Juniors. But it is trial and error!

The other clothes are Dollmore Narsha clothes - it was a pain to get them over their heads, but I managed. They fit quite well too.
