Elfdoll Reminisce Red and Wu

Oh, jeez. I forgive you, Elfdoll, for that K naming fiasco and your less than stellar customer Q&A and shipping issues and so forth. I completely and utterly forgive you.

I'm not only going to get Reminesce Wu but I'll have to figure out a way to snag a Reminesce Lydia. I severely disliked her with open eyes but she's a hot one like this. Oh yes. Mr. Crane's wife's comin' home! XD

*coughs*IwantReminesceRuruforLydiatoo!I'vealwayswantedalesbiancouple!*coughs*

 

sharsachan, yes, you have until the end of March. Hope you get your Reminisce Lydia head! (I have Red on the brain since that's what I'm getting - I finally noticed you're after Lydia.)

 

thank you lunar marsh! i appreciate the help!

 

I'm on the special customer list for Lydia, but do i HAVE to have the sleepy lydia or could i have Ruru instead does anyone know?

 

You'd have to ask Elfdoll whether you could switch what kind of head you want. Right now I think their logic is they're offering the head to those who bought the special versions of the doll, so it makes little sense to offer you a Red head when you have Ruru's body. At least, that's my take on it. ^^;

 

Has anyone else's heads arrived, yet? Mine seems to be arriving today. o.O It's a blank R. Red.

 

my lydia is is coming through denver dolls [where i bought her originally; they contacted me a few weeks ago and said the elfdoll would prefer i go through them if i hadnt already ordered so i did] and they said shipping should start in the next couple weeks.

 

I have a pink slip! *cackles* I can pick him up in 5 minutes. I'm debating taking pictures, I'm not real sure it's necessary given that we've all seen him quite a bit. However, he is blank, so maybe someone would be interested?

 

I would be interested in seeing a blank head. It is good to have photos that catalog blank heads.

 

My Red head is, or SHOULD be, with Canada Customs right now. I was hoping to get it this week, but I guess it'll be Monday for me. Hopefully no later

I also wouldn't mind seeing a blank head, since mine isn't.

 

Mine's with me right now. I haven't cracked out the camera or anything, since I didn't think anyone would want to see him. *laugh* But I can get that done soonish.

I need to find my leatherman, though, I want to swap heads with my SE Red.

I'm actually going to attempt to hybrid him with a Domuya Flexi-N, my logic goes thusly:

IF most Cerebus Project Normal is a match for Domuya Flexi-N, AND Elfdoll Homme is a match for most Cerebus Project Normal, THAN Elfdoll Homme is a match for Domuya Flexi-N.

I'll definately post about that once it actually arrives. I guess for now I should just take a few quality snaps of his noggin for posterity...

 

I ended up getting it today after all. From what I can tell, the resin is a tiny bit lighter in colour compared to his normal head, but I haven't seen it in daylight, so it's hard for me to say for sure. It doesn't really show in pics, so it might just be me.

 

lol, I thought that too. I was really bummed, because Elfdoll is normally so precise with their resin mixes.

Then I swapped heads. It's a perfect match, at least, for me.

:/ My guy has two small airbubbles on his forehead, though. You can only see it when you hold it up to the light and squint, so it's really not so bad.

 

Did anyone else have problems claiming their head? I had e-mailed Elfdoll about the Ruru Reminisce head because I bought the doll in December. I explained that my name was on their Special Customer list incorrectly (COMPLETELY different last name, not just spelled wrong). I also explained that I was willing to purchase one, but they were listed as sold out. I asked if they were truly sold out, or if I could still purchase one. I was polite, and gave them my order number for reference.

This is what I got in response: Unfortunately we have held free gift offers last month only.
We are currently selling Reminisce RURU's head for regular customers only.


Thank you for your interest.

They didn't apologize for getting my name wrong, did not offer to fix it, and certainly didn't answer my question! I understand that there are language differences, and that they are busy. I also know that it was offered as a gift, and it was nice of them to even offer it. I can always buy the head second hand, but that response certainly didn't make me feel like a "Special Customer". Actually, it kinda hurt my feelings...

 

my wu head came today and i'm just too happy for words. the resin is a perfect match and the face up is gorgeous. i hope to have some photos up soon.
had anyone else received their wu yet?

 

I haven't seen a Wu head yet, but I'd love to see pictures. The picture on the Elfdoll site doesn't really show it off.

I think they did a wonderful job on these heads. I'm perfectly happy with mine.

 

i totally agree with you. the angle on all of the newer reminisce heads pictures are odd and don't give you a good idea of what they look like.
i hope to take some pictures of mine soon... but as sad as this may sound i'm not quite ready to exchange my wu's head. it will be my first time taking his head off and i'm a bit nervous. silly, i know.
