Doll Chateau - Adult Dolls - Part 2

Fantastic new male doll. I need to start doing the lottery.

 

Thanks! I was a bit afraid removing these joints would make the doll look weird, or with too short arms.

@FirecrackerSparks I love your girl, that makeup is beautiful.

 

...I knew it was going to be a long wait, but I'm REALLY getting impatient for my Dolores now. *sigh* I'm just so curious about his jointed hands and jointed feet (also a bit nervous about them, to be honest - how are they strung? will I be able to handle them?), and I have never held a DC doll in my hands before... Meep. Some of the August orders are already coming in, but I guess I'm looking at the full six months. Ah well. I know he'll be worth it .

 

I quite like the extra joints and the jointed fingers and toes, though you have to check them digits twice when you take a photo, it's not that hard. The fingers and toes have s-hooks and the elastic is within the palm and foot connected to a resin hook within the wrist and ankle joint. they are tightly strung so you shouldn't have to mess with them. Just make sure you don't twist them up when moving them into position, try to keep the elastic straight because it will break or pull free.

I find it funny that when I first got into the hobby I found Doll Chateau's style of dolls originally too bizarre for me. Now I love them and want a DC Kevin so bad. I think him and Fergus are just precious and I wish I had the money to spend for both of them.

 

Yup. I liked them, but my friend didn't. I got a Hugh (mini) when he came out, and my friend kept calling him the Freaky Boy, or just Freak, so often that I finally just sold him. Eventually got Mephisto, and Stacy, and haven't seen my friend in over a year.

 

That's awful your friend did that, if it was mine I'd definitely be telling them they need to keep quiet cause it's my doll not theirs. I'm glad you got some new lovelies though.

 

question, since I have only admired DC dolls from afar for now...I'd like to get a Stacy head potentially, and use it for a boy character..but I'm kind of meh about the 1/3 boy body, and was wondering if the head might look okay on the A-body-04. The neck size is the same, so no worries there...it's just the slight height difference that concerns me. Stacy seems to be a 68cm doll, which isn't too much of a difference between 71cm, but I have dolls who are even just a few cm different from one another and it does make quite a difference. any help is appreciated ^^

 

I've recently gotten a DC Dolores body and will be getting a few other dolls from DC. But I am unsure of where to find clothes that will possibly fit them due to their unusual bodies. Does anyone have any recommendations for clothing?

 

Wow! Just AMAZING!!!

I have the same doll on the same body but in the old yellow skin. Thanks for sharing.

Such a beautiful boy! Which face sculpt is he please? You might have said but I missed it.

THese are great! I have a Mephisto as well. He is my grail.

The face up and that tattoo on his face! I can't get over it. It's great!!

She's super lovely. Great job.

Wow! She is so different and beautiful. How did you ever get this idea? I love it.

Ha ha! So cool!

 

Sharing a photo of Thaddeus and his minion, Rory. I am still in love with the Dolores body.

 

Oh wow thank you thank you! I cant believe I missed this comment. You might have already found your answer but my boy is a Doll-Chateau Dennis.

 

Hello! I hope im not necro'ing a dead thread ahhhh
but does anyone have a body 04/03? o: I really wanted my second doll to be a DC! But I don't know which one to get o)-< Can you remove the extra joint off the 03 and have it work just fine? Or is the neck on the 03 and 04 not interchangeable?

Also does DC do events/what kind of promo do they do? :0c are they worth waiting for?
Oh! And also, if you just buy a body, does it not come with a COA?

 

I have the 03 and yes you can remove the extra joints, you "may have to shorten the elastic" but probably not. I love the lean and lanky body, it is gorgeous.
They have seasonal event dolls, usually two to choose from. IMO some are very cute while others are just strange. So waiting might be worth it, it depends on whether the event dolls tickle your fancy, as they say.

 

@SteamWitch
oooooooh so like having the extra joint removed doesn't effect the doll/head movements at all? :0c
I was really worried that it would! And it seemed like all of the promo photos they have were the 03 not 04 so I thought i would have to buy a head and body separately.

What do you mean by the seasonal event dolls though? Are they usually like little mini critter types or some kind of humanoid kind?

 

@BoneLace If you buy only the body it doesn't come with a CoA.
But if you buy only the head, it does come with a CoA. (At least from my experience)

 

@hsifalissa
oh no thats so unfortunate
is it worth asking for one from DC? Or buy a head too?
I was tempted to get delores, no embossing! but then i also wanted the horns from mephisto ;u; But I dont know if the horns is just something that fits other DC heads or it's only for mephisto?

 

Usually they're some sort of humanoid creature..? You can actually see a lot of the past ones on their website under Limited. If it's small and weird it was probably an event doll, lol. I love them.

 

I don't have budget for this for quite a while, but has anyone put a non-doll chateau SD head on the Fergus body?

I would shorten the neck a hair, but i think the sloped set of the shoulders, and long angular-ness would be perfect for the ~look i was after with my ANS Shadow King head. But even though it's a smallish SD head, it's a few centimeters bigger than the Fergus head. Also don't know if the 9.2 cm neck opening would look gappy on an 8cm neck.

Actually, are there any owner pictures of the fergus body out there?

like i said, these are long term thoughts, but after spending 5 years with the image in mind for one kind of hybrid for this head and finding out it absolutely wouldn't work, I want to get my research in early this time

Edit: yep there's no way this will work with the shoulder width oops. sorry for the useless post!

 

I did a bit of mixing and matching and put together a new outfit for my girl! A loose fitting style of clothing with an msd vest with sd pants did the trick
