1. It has come to the attention of forum staff that Dollshe Craft has ceased communications with dealers and customers, has failed to provide promised refunds for the excessive waits, and now has wait times surpassing 5 years in some cases. Forum staff are also concerned as there are claims being put forth that Dollshe plans to close down their doll making company. Due to the instability of the company, the lack of communication, the lack of promised refunds, and the wait times now surpassing 5 years, we strongly urge members to research the current state of this company very carefully and thoroughly before deciding to place an order. For more information please see the Dollshe waiting room. Do not assume this cannot happen to you or that your order will be different.

Delf body Type 2

Apr 30, 2006


    1. THANK YOU! You are a goddess!!! And so are the rest of the people on this thread T.T (like Brightfires) XD

      I was planning on getting Elf Yder, but since I sorta wanted to change his head often, I wanted the second body type. nice to know it's possible :D
       
    2. Uhm... no, Rukawagf. Unfortunately, it isn't.
      Not the way you're thinking, at least...

      You *can* put an Elf Yder head on either type 1 or type 2 bodies... but that's not going to make him compatible with the type 2 neck connection mechanism. You have to remove that connection piece and restring the body with an s-hook, just like a type 1 body, in order for his head to fit.

      Elf Yder is a Type 1 head. He will *NOT* work with a Type 2 neck connection piece.
       

    3. damn. XD :lol:

      but technically, if i remove the connection piece on the type 2 body, it's still workable?
       
    4. ok, so im totally confused. I *need* the VDES head to fit a mature (new) body...what do i do? Is this a hopeless dream or is there something i can do to make this work? She will be my first doll, and I really have my heart set on this. HELP!?
       
    5. bump for an answer to my question...
       
    6. It's been said that old heads wont fit new body.
      So no.. without modification (which noone has done yet) VDES head wont fit.. at last not untill they decide to make a new version. Noone knows if they will or when though.
       
    7. The Type 2 mature girl body's neck will be much too wide for the Type 1 VDES head. The only way you're going to be able to make that work is to *BOTH* restring the body without the connection piece *AND* mod the neck-hole opening of the head.
       
    8. I was just wondering if anyone has tried this mod out yet. I want a DES head for my type 2 body, but modding a head scares me.
       
    9. Okay, so... all I want to know is what hands the new boy body type comes with, so I know whether I should order a different set or not. XD
       
    10. Well, they type 2 girls body shows DES hands "Delf hands 8" and those are the ones I got when I ordered my body. The ones on the type 2 boy body look like El's hands "Delf hands 7". They make me giggle, the left one looks like it is about to grab a boobie. Maybe I am weird, but that is the first thought I had :sweat

      You can always ask Luts on the Q&A which one the body comes with for sure, but those ones would be my best guess.
       
    11. Hey everyone!!
      I have a DES and a Tan Lishe. I really like that you can just twist, and poof the head is off. I'm always afraid of damaging my dolls, so this is a plus.

      The bad news??
      I was reading a thread about 3 or 4 weeks ago, and it was the topic of the new bodies. You can't string them as tight because a lot of the body stress is on the neck. It'll crack the neck, if you are not careful. Also, the new bodies feel lighter and a little hollow. But that could just be me.
       
    12. I've bought several Type 2 option part bodies for my Floating Heads... and they've all come with *Chiwoo* hands, not El hands.
       
    13. A normal DES or a tan one?
      I hope they will have the type 2 option on just the heads as well. I dont want to have to find someone to buy the body.
       
    14. I've been strongly leaning towards an El as my next addition and would like to find out what the difference is between the Boy Type 1 body and the Boy Type 2 body - have had a look at the pics on the site, but not having much luck. When I look on the standard El page as well, it has the option of old/ new body in the drop down menu - is this the same as type 1 & 2 or something completely different again?

      I'm sure this has already been asked on DoA and I have had a look around, but keep getting distracted by the other threads that pop up during the searching...:sweat

      So if someone could explain to me the difference, or point me in the direction of a thread that can answer my query would be much appreciated.

      Cheers.
       
    15. If you look at luts it tells you how to restring both type one and two. You can see the differences there. (mainly the neck mechanism).
       
    16. Thanks! Didn't even realise there was a restringing tutorial in there. Very handy to know for future reference...

      I take it then it is only the neck part that is different, the rest pretty much the same as the old body dimensions wise.
       
    17. So this is my Stupid Elf Yder Question? Hows the Type 2 Resin Liek to the old Elf Yder Head? Should i get an old type 1 body?
       
    18. Hiya! Question: Is it possible to put the type 2 mechanism into another doll body? I have a type 2 head which I am putting on a Domuya flexi body. Is it possible to take the type 2 mechanism off of a CP body, and transplant it onto another body? Or is the mechanism need to be on a CP body to work? Thanks!!! :)
       
    19. hi im going to order a luts lishe, but i dont know what the difference between an old type and a new type body is......
      so can someone tell me what is the difference:doh
       
    20. I'd like to get a Miyu with Type 2 Mature body, but does she only come with pointy hands?

      sweet_robin, as far as I know, the waist joint is lower on the new type, as well as an extra piece on the neck for the new body.
