Dollzone Discussion ~ 60 and 70cm ~ Part VIII

Ahhhhh, He looks amazing in that suit.

 

@IzabethS - Ooh fingers crossed! Let us know what happens!

@SteamWitch - Thank you! I'm a sucker for pretty guys in suits (and assertive women too). Having him in this is like a dream come true. I did wash the pants and waistcoat today and holy cow SO much dye came out. He's 90% covered in MSC so he should have been safe either way but wow.

 

@Quiet and Insane Dark dyed clothes are nice but the dyed fabric isn't rinsed enough before they make doll clothes out of it. Glad he is unstained.

 

@SteamWitch - If it's even rinsed at all! I'm glad he got out unstained, and I'm glad I was able to hand wash the suit. Though I've always wanted to see what the reaction would if I took it to a dry-cleaners.

 

That would be a riot, preshrunk suit to be cleaned please. LOL

 

Though I'd be a little worried they'd lose something, if not the whole thing given the size.

 

I'd be more concerned about shrinkage and felting, personally. With a suit that small and dapper it would be such a tragedy. (one of my cashmere sweaters got felted at the cleaners and I've never quite gotten over it.)

 

The DZ Snow twins have shipped from Angelesque today! My June order that is for me mostly hasn't arrived yet (sad panda), but at least my wife will have her twins Darten and Taren and Mel and Val will have their husbands!

 

@Girrl - Mmm that's a very good point. Though I've never heard of something shrinking at the dry cleaners.

@IzabethS - Woo! That's great news (except for the bit where you're still waiting on dolls).

 

They made it!! My wife is thrilled with them!

Neither of their clothes are here yet, and Darten (the dark haired twin) needs his proper eyes, so they are borrowing stuff, but at least they got their wigs.
Darten is on the new B60-005 body, and Tar (the light haired twin) is on the B60-004 body.

 

Ooh hello new dolls! I love the coat Tar is wearing.

 

Congrats on the doll delivery. They look cute in their borrowed clothes.

 

Is it me or does Licht lookslike Eddie Redmayne, the actor who plays Newt in Fantastic Beasts ?

@IzabethS , you've got lovely twins there!

 

@Lilla @Cloudedmind I knew he reminded me of someone but I couldn't figure out who! He's a beautiful sculpt. Regretting my Mo-B now.

 

I was thinking he looked like a skinny James McAvoy. That nose is to thin for either but he is a gorgeous sculpt.

 

Sorry if I'm asking in the wrong place, but does anyone know of any companies who are a good match for Dollzone's Normal Yellow resin and have smaller (55-58cm) male bodies? I have a Mo-B head that I'd like to find a better body for, since his current one doesn't really match at all, and the DZ bodies are taller than what I want for him.

I have a Sweetdoll Allison, and I really like his body, but unfortunately I can't find a working website for them.

 

@Tira-chan , Do you mean the old yellow resin that looked like a tan or the new yellow resin?
Is Mo-B an old sculpt? I cannot find him under the 1/3 tab.

 

@Lilla, it's a limited SD-scale version of the 1/4th Mo head from a promotional event. It came out in 2010, so I don't know if that counts as "older." He's not particularly tan, though; he's not darker than the other "normal skin" dolls I have, he just has a yellower undertone to his skin rather than a pinkish one.

 

Ok so he's really quite old then. Would you happen to have a photo of him?
