Elfdoll Boy Mir Discussion

Now that´s a case of Rainman Did It Again...and what a stunner he is. Though I´m not really into the "resin wig", it sure looks different, but IMO it narrows down the possibilities of this gorgeous boy. I keep my claws crossed for a bald-headed standard edition .

 

*stares at screen*

My dream boy. Seriously, he is 'due to lack of a better word, PERFECT!!' (Fifth Element quote). I love how he is very manly, sexy and Asian all in one. Rainman has REALLY outdone himself this time. Thank you so much for creating this gorgeous boy.

Will he be available as a normal edition at some point? I hope he will 'cause I don't think I could afford this version.

 

Mm.. I'm definately hoping he'll be a normal edition as well. I agree, he's totally perfect! The only drawback I can see at all is the Resin Wig, but yeah, he's definately everything I've been wanting in a doll but have noticed a major lack of...

Gods, he's amazing.... I can't wait to get more money now LoL! I hope he comes out as a general Rainy Doll and not just limited.

Oh man... Elfdoll's owning my soul with its boys now LoL!

 

I'm saved. It's hard for me to imagine that Rainman sculpted a boy I *don't* like, but Mir does absolutely nothing for me. In fact... active dislike of the resin hair - my first Barbie doll had molded hair way back when, and it reminds me of her. Ugh.

I like his chin.

Dislike his smirk... too over the top.

I LOVE his eyes!

But I don't like his nose. Dunno what that's all about.

Well there, one less in the competition to get one!

 

Oh, good, he reminds me of my ex boyfriend... No need to covet him then!

 

LOL.. well most of you know by now that he comes with the bald head, too. Elf Doll doesn't tend to tell us if there's a standard coming along later.

There are still some in stock, but my pre-order is secured! Time to find a "waiting for Mir" thread...

 

He is AWESOME! I'm not a huge fan of the molded hair, so I'm saved from spending so much money on him. I really do hope they'll release a standard version, as I really do want this boy. He's just perfect!

As for the resin hair, it's unique for sure, and I don't think it looks terrible. However, one of the things I love about this hobby is that I get to customize my characters however I want to. The resin hair would limit me from doing so. And I know he comes with a regular head as well, but I'd rather wait for the standard and spend less money, than buy the special at such a high cost to have a head I'll never use (and based on some comments I'm seeing - may not even be able to sell at the cost I'd be paying for it). However, this is such a minor complaint for me, as I really do LOVE this boy and will definitely buy the Standard (praying if/when he comes out there isn't another dolly I want at the same time).

He's really cool looking, though somehow reminds me of the Mattel Barbie line, "Flavas" with the whole hip hop influence. I'm not sure how I feel about that molded hair.

 

I seem to be the only one who's selling off her bald head and keeping the resin.

 

I think he's really great, I adore his eyes. Rainman does know how to tempt us! ^^

 

I like his facial looks but i don't want another special with an outfit. It just makes them too expensive for me. I'll wait to see if they have a standard version with the head for a wig. I do not like the resin hair at all.

I also like that he is taller so that he'd go well with the girls. I really wanted a male doll to match Ruru but this one would go nicely with my Soah.

 

Oh, Merle, I could so see Mir and Soah together. The star crossed lovers. The sweet innocent girl falling for the bad boy. LOVE IT!

Well, to be honest i don't know what to make of him. I have seen another BJD with resin hair before (Heartsdoll) but it was removable so you could replace it with an ordinary wig so was wondering why they did'nt do this too.
In some pics he looks OK and in others he looks a bit out of proportion somehow, maybe it is just the angle the pic has been taken at.
There's just something about him that i can't take to, maybe i will like him better when i see owner pics - they usually show off dolls better in my opinion.
He's a strange one that's for sure - that is just my opinion - and normally i like the stranger looking dolls so don't know why he does'nt do it for me.
At least i don't have to add him to my ever growing 'want list'.

 

Wow, I LOVE him!!! I adore how Elfdoll heads really have great expressions and very unique looks...Mir looks quite pissy!! And...sculpted hair??? That ROCKS!!

 

i love the way he looks- he reminds me of bruce lee- and i like his bad boy style...

 

I like the molded hair and sincerely hope that someone who dislikes it will sell me their extra head.

 

Sigh...I caved....I just had to have this boy...I guess I'll be eating lots of ramen noodles and peanut butter sandwiches for the next three months! I'm not sure about the molded hair...it rather intrigues me. That said, I got the face up on the regular head...will decide if I want to face up the molded hair head when I see it...

 

I love this boy, he's so cute!! However, the resin wig scares the heck out of me!! Reminds me of a Ken doll or something. I don't like the tattoo either. But if they make a standard that can wear regular wigs, with no tattoos, I will definitely buy him. Jiao Long has been wanting a boyfriend...

 

I think if I read correctly, that tattoo is just a sticker. I kind of like it, but if it's a sticker, I doubt I'll use it as it might start to rub off and look icky.

 

A sticker, eh? Well, it would make a cool sticker for sure, just not on my doll! lol That is interesting though... I didn't get a chance to read much because my mom was looking with me and she just wanted to see the pics. So I'll have to check on that again.
