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.

Difference between Unoa version 1.0 and 1.5

Jun 11, 2006

    1. Could anyone show me some photos of the differences between the Unoa versions 1.5 and 1.0? I'm thinking of adopting one when I raise the money, and I've seen pictures of the version 1.0, but I am nervous that the 1.5 may not be what I want. Also, does anyone know if Alchemic lab will still be selling the version 1.0 in the preorder, or if they will only be selling the version 1.5?

      If there is already a thread on this, I apologize.

      Thanks,
      Illarion

    2. you might try and look here: http://www.rakurakutei.com/theloft/unoa_faq.htm

      Towards the bottom, there are some pictures from UNOA FREAK. Unoa Freak came out in 2005 which was basically a magazine detailing the Unoa dolls in detail. It looks like there are pictures that compare the Unoa 1.0 boys to the 1.5 boys.

    3. Yeah, I did look through that FAQ, but I was still kinda confused. So are the 1.5's the 26cm "light" ones at the bottom them and the B-el & Li-B ones the 1.0's?

    4. No, the 26 cm Unoa Lights were a complete different project. Though it does look like they have the 1.5 version body.

      To answer your questions : No, the 1.0 versions will NOT be sold any longer, unless someone is selling theirs on Ebay, Yahoo Japan, etc. From now on, it'll only be the 1.5 version of Sist and Lusis that will be sold through Alchemic Lab/Cresent Shop.

      Now what's the difference? Honestly, it's not that big. Araki has basically improved the elbow joints, inserted an extra bit in the back (so she can move her torso better) and improved the neck a bit, so she can move her head more easily. That's it really.
      Here are pics of the new body : http://su-su.sub.jp/araki/ver15body.html

      I hope that helps you out a bit :)

    10. Changes that were made in the 1.5 Unoas was as some people mentioned above- they now have a three-part torso (though very different from the double jointed waist like Dollshe and SD16), double elbow joints, and what impressed me most with the 1.5 versions is the way they had the shoulder and neck joints. There's a series of grooves inside the shoulder holes and a small bump on the actual shoulder pieces- these grooves and bumps allow the shoulders to 'lock' into quite an amazing varity of positions! Head movemenet is about the same, but the grooves/bumps let the head stay where you put it much more easily. The legs as far as I can tell, are exactly the same as the older versions.

    12. I much prefer the 1.5. The jointing improved, so the posing improved. My 1.0 did not need sanding for shine, the 1.5 did. Well worth it. I could not accept the dark grease like residue that formed in the wrist and ankle joints of my 1.0 due to the aluminum hook and rod. The more you move the joint, the more residue forms. If the 1.5 had the aluminum, I would not have kept her.
