EOSdoll (formerly Limhwa) Discussion

She's so gorgeous. I love Limhwa sculpts.

 

I purchased the in-stock Half Elf on EOSdoll body from Junkyspot, and she arrived today! I can take some comparison pictures tomorrow. The body is mostly lovely, though I'm not sure how I feel about the bust... it's just SO BIG compared to the rest of her!

 

I'm considering switching my Half Elf to an EOS version so pictures would definitely be helpful and muchly appreciated.

I am also curious about what other EOS owners think of the pose-ability of this body? Especially compared to the older, somewhat difficult to pose, Limhwa 57 body?

 

I'm so glad to know that she went to a good home.

I'm the one who ordered her on the EOS body and then changed my mind (so she was in stock) about it due to the bust (I like small to normal bust) ~ Still, I'd love to see pictures of my "could have been doll" and how awesome she must look.

I also ordered a normal (old body) Half Elf but family crisis dictated my money had to go elsewhere. The girl who bought her posted her on JS FB page so I was able to see her.

I'm just happy they've both gone to homes where they'll be loved as much as I would have loved them.

From what I have heard of the new body, she poses well but is heavy so some things are kind of difficult to manage. But, I haven't seen pics yet of what poses they can manage. Would be nice to see!

 

Ditto on the "want to see more EOS body posing pics" train! I'm thinking I'll get the dreaming half elf on a EOS body when she releases it next November.

I just paid for the last Leda (tan) on Junkyspot. I haven't received a confirmation email from JS yet tho, so I'm on pins and needles. I suppose it's possible someone else bought her before me and they haven't had a chance to take down the listing yet...

I kinda bit the bullet because the pause in tan production had me nervous. Supia just stopped doing tan altogether, didn't they? I hope Limhwa/EOS doesn't quit making it for good.

 

I doubt they'll stop altogether. Limhwa has been fairly consistent with the production of tan dolls, while Supia has had a hard time with the release from the get-go. When Luts still offered tan delfs, they also paused tan production during the winters because producing it during their wet season apparently messed something up with the casts.

I'm also waiting on Limhwa to re-release their tan. I want another Mono. They'll probably start production again by summer, if the past with other companies has been any indicator.

 

Did they send you an invoice already??

I try to order her this morning too. She wasn't sold out yet. But I wanted her ship to my PO Box so Emory told me to send him and email so he could send me a manual paypal invoice. I'm still waiting for the invoice. So if you did get the invoice congrats. That mean you won her first and I will buy a iplehouse Amy to be my 1st BJD instead

 

Oh no, MrFjmg! I didn't get an invoice, but paid immediately through the shopping cart! I can't believe we must have really ordered during the same time! I bet you asked first though, if he said he'd send you an invoice. I guess he'll refund me tonight when he starts going through orders. I had been checking every morning to see if she was sold out, I just knew I was waiting too long!

No matter how it turns out, Iplehouse Amy is lovely too. =)

 

I think she is officially yours T4124. If you paid for her already Because I asked him if they ship to PO Boxes on Friday. But unfortunately, I didn't complete the money to order her until yesterday, but it was snowing and the Electricity when off in my house. It just came back this morning. So Friday night he send me the email telling me that when I was ready to order to send him the email with my address. So I could do a manual paypal invoice.

I was also checking the site everyday almost all day long So congratulations


I'm sure I want a Leda so she will be my 2nd bjd. I'm so ordering one when they have more available like in 3 months.

 

I can't believe it snowed last night here in Texas, too! Just a tiny dusting, but that counts, right?

JunkySpot still hasn't sent me a confirmation or anything, so I guess we confused him real good with our bum rush this morning! XD

If she ends up going to you, I think I'll wait until they start doing tan again to order, since I really love the tan skin. I just read your post that you were worried about them turning green, but I have a tan ToYou Sara from 2010 and she hasn't changed at all that I can tell, so don't worry if you get her in tan! I think other companies have more of a problem with greening, Iplehouse is a big one unfortunately.

If you end up having to go with the next order, would you get a natural skin one or wait for tan too?

 

I live in New Mexico we are state neighbors

I know I been checking my email all day long

I honestly don't care much about the skin color. I think she still gorgeous in any color. I felt in love with her face mold and her body sculpt. for some reason I LOVE the hands of Limhwa dolls and I never care about the hands until now . I was 100% sure I wanted an Iplehouse Amy until I saw Leda unfortunately I didn't had the money to buy her right away

The only problem I had with tan skin was I thought they turn green to quickly. I have seen pictures of tan resin from iplehouse and they turn green like in 24 hours in the sun. I was scared of that happening with a tan Leda that's the only reason i wanted a NS because they turn yellow but not very fast. I think if I have to go with the next order I wouldn't be able to wait for the tan skin. I will order one in any skin color they have, but with a face up because I don't have any idea how to do one myself. I'm a complete newie to this.

I just want a Limhwa Leda real bad. She is just so stunning and besides Iplehouse she is one of the few MSD with mature bodies. I intend for my 1st bjd to be an adult. I already have a name and character for her





EDIT:

T4124, I just got an email from Junkyspot and they told me the last Leda was sold out. CONGRATULATIONS!!!! I will see you all next year when they have more in stock and I buy my 2nd bjd

 

Congratulations! I emailed Limhwa and she said that it is definitely not a suspension of tan (like it was for Supia) but rather that the weather conditions are poor and she doesn't want the quality to become affected. Let's cross our fingers that this holds true!

 

^ Exactly what I said! Definitely an 'I told you so!' moment for me!

On tan skin yellowing:

Iplehouse started with a tan skin that reacted poorly to sunlight and turned green. They're not the only company who's had that happen to them; I believe back in the day there was also a Hound who turned green. That being said, both Supia and Limhwa have never had this problem documented before, and I think that's likely because their colourant and/or resins are completely different than Iple's realskin -- which seemed to have a bit of a environmental resin in them to get that glowing skin look - which is why the colour changed.

Also, for your peace of mind, when Iple's realskin dolls started greening, they replaced the resin they used for their next batches, and there have been no more reports of the same intensity ever since, so in the future going forward, greening will likely not be that way again.

 

Just a dumb question but if someone want to sell the old Limhwa body,,,I'm seaching for one in french resin I do not like the EOS body..

Everybody,,congratulations with the new doll! And I love the pics on the page before.

 

Do the EOS girls come with the high heel feet included??

 

Mine did not. I may end up switching her body out; anyone have resin-matching advice?

 

Eos girls don't come with high heel feet. In fact when I asked Limhwa about it ... well, it didn't seem like a feature she'd be coming out with any time soon.

I have seen older Limhwa and Supia hybrids -- but I don't know what could match right now. There's also that part of the 'feel' of the Limhwa resin which doesn't match many other feels.

 

So since they don't come with high heel feet, does anyone know how compatible the high heel feet from the 57 body would be with the EOS body?

 

Is there a Limhwa MSD discussion thread? I just saw this:



New 43cm girl.

 

No there isn't a thread for Limhwa MSD there one for Leda here is the link http://www.denofangels.com/forums/showthread.php?399169-Limhwa-Leda-(43cm)
