Dollmore Trinity Discussion - Part 2

I think you guys should calm down and not take comments about lifeless resin dolls as personal slights. Maybe I find it offensive you've put words in my mouth and have bent the entirety of what I said. At no point was I speaking of human beings, so please relax. I am entitled to my opinion of not liking the size difference between them and it has nothing to do with you or any person you know. Let's stop being silly.

@nancy_schroeder_ca Yeah, I also don't like his style either. Especially the face. I think they were trying to go for a mature, smouldering look but he just looks kind of unpleasant lol.

 

Erm. Um.
Anybody have suggestions for a chair for a Trinity doll? Did you make your own? Can I see pictures please?

 

@MaleficentMrsofEvil You could try kids' chairs, I guess. I'd get a solid, sturdy one for a heavy BJD like Trinity.

And...I'm confused. Dollmore states a female Trinity weighs 21kg/46 pounds and a male Trinity weighs 27kg/60 pounds.
Does anyone know why they're overstating weight?
(My Lusion is 9.25lbs but Dollmore claims it's 14kg/31lbs.)

 

They may be including the weight of the clothing and the stand. That stand is no joke. It's a heavy bugger.

 

They may be giving a shipping weight.

 

Both of my Trinity's sit in dolls originally made for antique/reproduction dolls. I bought both well before I got into BJDs in 2005.

 

I received the tracking number for my Edna doll this morning. I am so excited❤️❤️.

 

Finally got around to restringing, wiring, and washing up Elysia (headcap says Alicia?). One very disgusting, black sponge later she's looking nice and spiffy. She stands on her own now, too! Although I wouldn't leave her alone without a stand, lol.
I discovered a pretty big chip on the back of one leg, though. I emailed Dollmore Abby and asked about the best way to repair damage to their dolls. Abby said to send pictures, and they'll make a new leg for me? I didn't realize that was a thing... I mean, of course I have to pay for it, but still. I thought that was a pretty cool offer.
Still eagerly waiting for the outfit I ordered for her. I think she's going to look awesome in her new duds. Plus knickers. My girls gotta have knickers. It's a thing, man.

 

Dollmore news: as I love Kate a lot, but the trinity size is so hard to handle... I asked at the customer support, if they plan to release Kate as Zaoll-size as well as they did Elysia and the answer is YES. Abby confirmed, that she will be released as a Zaoll-size around christmas. Thought to share this here. Of course- not just cause maybe some Kate owners wish to have a mini-me for her lady.
Of course I wish to order her in this size. I had Kate and sold her. I loved her but she was too hard to handle for me.

 

Wonderful! I would love a Kate! Trinity is too big for me also these days. I asked Dollmore to bring Elysia down for the Zaoll body! I was surprised how fast they did it! Maybe it was already in the works!

 

Dollmore Abby said about 2 more weeks! Weeeee! Alicia/Elysia is gonna be so fancy in her new duds! I'm also getting the jointed hands, and I'm super excited for those.

I mentioned this in the other large Dollmore thread, but I emailed a picture of my cat mirin' Alicia to Dollmore Abby. She said that the owner's cat just crossed the rainbow bridge last week. So if anyone wants to send condolences, I'm sure Abby would pass them along.

 

Hello to everyone, so happy to finally be here! I was reading about your beautiful dolls while waiting for my own...waiting is so painful, especially for a newbie like me. I would like to ask if someone ordered and received Eugenia Frozen Tear?

Update, i received Frozen Tear, but with a Marianne head, was nice and i keep it, then complete my Frozen.

 

Ok, I wanted drop by and say it’s been awhile lol. I love my Edna doll! I have since changed her clothes because she is able to wear toddler dresses just fine ❤️ I think that she is the perfect size bjd and is made very well, Dollmore does great work. I’m very glad I bought the stand for her.

 

Hello and Happy New Year everyone
Few day sago i received Eugenia head and i have completed my Frozen Tear Eugenia set, well... still need faceup to be completed, but i'll do in future. She is definitelly my favorite Dollmore sculpt.


I love the outfit, it's really well make, .

 

Dollmore clothes are not cheap, but oh yes - the quality is outstanding.
Elysia loves her new clothes, and those cheap little fairy wings you can get for kids on Halloween fit Trinities perfectly!

Spoiler: Outfit 2 - rude

 

I’m seriously considering buying a male Trinity doll. However I can’t fully decide on it yet as I have another doll in mind. Is anyone thinking of buying a male Trinity doll? Which one are you choosing?

 

It seems like they only offer one male head sculpt? The Danny White M sculpt, and he's got a furrowed brow I'm not a huge fan of. I'm kinda hoping they make a Model M head bigger. But the body is amazing....

 

I am about in the middle of a long lay away for the Baker Street version. I'm getting him without a faceup (to cut corners on the co$t). I think there were some pictures of him without a faceup somewhere. The scowl can be minimized with a different faceup, or if you're okay with it - can be sanded off. But I think just a different faceup will be enough for most people.
Check out the pictures of him in the Trinity Male clothes they have up now. He doesn't look so angry IMHO.
Personally, I like the frown. It's so hard to get a proper frowny look on a neutral face.
(I'm weird, I know)

 

There are several female Trinities on sale right now, and if I wasn't in the middle of a long layaway myself...
Le sigh. I seriously looked long and hard at my layaway (also with Dollmore), but I really do want my girls (a Model F Mellow Cole, a Model F Keeley Sum, and mermaid). But maaaaaaaaaaaan. I would LOVE a Kate. I love her face sculpt.
But it's never "just" the doll, right? I would want another pair of jointed hands, and I love Dollmore's seam sanding service, and maybe some more clothes, and and and... lol. It adds up really quickly.
