EOSdoll (formerly Limhwa) Discussion

She is available on both bodies! (:


And from what I gathered during the first ordering period through JunkySpot,
the head available with the old body is slightly larger and less mature than the one
available on the EOS body. Although, I can't seem to find that information anymore
but it would be awesome if someone could confirm it, since I'm interested in the head
and for me the smaller & more mature, the better.

I have the Half-Elf faceplate and headback from an EOSDoll body, and the dreaming Half-Elf faceplate from the old Limhwa body, both bought from Junkyspot. The dreaming faceplate fits the headback fine, and I don't think there's a massive difference. I can compare them when the dreaming faceplate comes back from the spa.

 

Snowgray, thank you for the information so far. I look forward to hearing how both compare once you receive your dreaming faceplate back! (:
From the photos on the EOS flickr account, it seems like the EOS Half-Elf has smaller eyes but that could just be me
being fooled by what I recall reading and not an actual difference - I'll have to try comparing both opened-eyed sculpts in Photoshop.

To confirm: there's no dimensional differences between the old Half Elf and the one that goes on the EOS body. My friend has both. (:

 

^ That's great thank you for confirming. (:

Hello
Does anyone happen to know when the next pre-order might be?
It's all very confusing trying to order one of these girls!

 

You can check JunkySpot's Pre-order forum to see when Emory runs a new pre-order period for (Limhwa) EOS dolls.
He usually runs a new one after the orders from the last one have arrived but I'm not sure how long that takes.
JunkySpot also has a newsletter with updates of new items in the shop but I'm not entirely sure if it includes news
regarding pre-ordering periods but it couldn't hurt to subscribe. I hear you can also pre-order directly from EOS but
I'm not entirely sure how that works - still you have to wait until the dolls for JunkySpot get made and shipped to receive
yours. I hope that helps. (:


As a side note, I had heard that you had to be a member of JunkySpot to pre-order dolls from them but I don't check
often enough there to know for sure if that is true anymore or if you can pre-order dolls regardless. I believe you had to
post on the forum which items you wanted to pre-order and you can only post if you're a member but that might have changed.

No, you don't have to be a member. I ordered my old boy through them by e-mail.

Pictures of my new babe, not from the Junkyspot order but forever ago. He's a restoration project I'm not finished yet!



I still really want a dreaming half elf. I have so many ideas for one. >_> As a boy.

 

I really want a half elf Limhwa, but the eos website is so confusing to me no details of the body or pictures given. Is there any where else I can access this information and is she a good doll? I am very new to BJDs so any information would be appreciated.

 

You can see photos of the nude Eos body here. You can also order Eos dolls from JunkySpot.
They have the Half Elf 57cm version (with the old Limwha body) in stock right now, as well as
what I believe to be the new Half Elf sculpt with the new Eos body. I don't own any of the girls
so I can't help with information about them being "good dolls" or not but I hope the rest helps. (:

Thank-you very much I have had a look and I think I will order one. Looking at the description it states the seams are not sanded can anyone explain what this means and how does it affect the dolls appearance?

 

Seams are a normal part of most dolls/toys that are cast in two-part molds; you get seams where the two molds meet.
Some BJD come without them because they are either sanded by the magnufacturer or they have a differnt molding process.
There are various tutorials on the customizing section on how to remove the seam-lines yourself or you can pay someone else to do it for you.
A lot of people don't mind them however, since again, a lot of other dolls (and toys) have them. In the end it is a matter
of personal preference - also, some companies have seams that are not as bad and some have ones that are "terrible,"
while some vary from batch to batch.

I removed all the seam-lines from my own dolls because I like blushing them and seamlines get in the way of the look I want
but otherwise I think I could have lived with most. I hope that helps. (:

I was going to answer, but got beaten to it, so instead I'll assist with a visual representation of a seamline. My boy, Lux, still has his seams, but are pretty much invisible. You can see his on his shoulder (left side) in the picture. Most of my dolls have been pretty good with not having very noticeable seams so far.



Sorry the image I had was not of a Limhwa doll! D:

 

Thanks guys for your quick and helpful replies, my husband has agreed to buy me one as a christmas present so I am going to order one very soon.

 

Hello, anyone knows if it's possible to buy a limwha girl on Eos body in tan skin ? Thanks for the answer ^^

 

From what I remember from doing a preorder @ junkyspot for limwha/EoS, you can order an original head on the new body, but its not available in tan unfortunately

 

I've been asking LIMHWA directly about tan all year, but she is still replying that it isn't possible right now, unfortunately. . But someday! The instant tan is back on the menu, I am buying a Tuel so fast I might sprain something. I can't wait!

Anyway, here's my new Luna with my tan Half Elf. I just finished the Luna's faceup, and I love her! Luna makes the Half Elf look more childish in the face by comparison. The Luna is pointier, the Half Elf is rounder. I adore them.

Wow I really love the face up from your Luna! Never has seem a Limhwa girl with red hair and eyebrows I love your half elf too

 

Your Luna is gorgeous, love her!

 

I can't decide if I want a limhwa or an eos doll!
