Fairyland Feeple 65 Discussion Part 7

I didn't really play around much with the mag chest piece to give a fair comparison with/without it. I was initially doing something with him (dressing him to test fit an outfit I was making, I think) and he started to fall so I grabbed the closest part (his arm) and it just popped right off. I still caught him with my other hand around his torso but it scared the begeebus out of me when his arm just popped off like that and I thought he was going to tumble to the hard wood floor. It wasn't long after that that I re-strung him.

Full disclosure: I hate mag parts in general. I knew he'd have mag hands/feet because FL (and I have a FL Ruth so I knew this was very much a thing) but I didn't know he'd have the entire arm as a mag part, too. It wouldn't have stopped me from purchasing him (because he's gorgeously awesome) but I am def not in love with that feature.

This, btw, is Braithwyn, God of Wild & Forgotten Places. The outfit (top & pants) was made from silk sari fabric while the attached skirt was made from a silk tablecloth, both sourced from Value Village. He is a Soom Chrom head on the FL65 body that was dyed to give him vitiligo.

Logan had a make-over by angel toast, thought I'd share a pic:

I love her so much more this time around.​

 

This doll is very wonderful.

 

Did y'all see the new F65 girl, Nuia? Denver Doll shared her on Instagram!

I looove her face and ears! She's pretty different than Fairyland's usual stuff, so it's cool they're branching out. I can't tell from the photos if this is the original F65 girl body or if they changed it.

 

I came here to ask the same thing! I have always admired Fairyland's dolls, and especially the F65, but I've never needed one until today. She's absolutely gorgeous and I'm currently planning on bringing her home.

 

I have absolutely zero space for another large doll, but... yeah. I like her look a lot. She has a very Elfquest kind of vibe. I'd be tempted to go full Leetah if I ordered one, with tan resin, green eyes, and a long, curly auburn wig.

 

She's so different from what FL usually does, but I love her. I'm already thinking of how I'm going to make this happen, it'll be tough on my wallet but I think I want the fullset, or most of it at least!

 

Omg she does have strong Leetah vibes. I legit just got a MNF Lami elf boy in tan to make into Rayek too, Fairyland has been making me think of Elfquest characters with a lot of their newer elves. X3

Elfquest energy aside, my friend and I were eyeing the new girl as she has a D&D PC with a twin sister (who is an NPC) and Nuia could really work as the twins. Fates willing we might each buy one.

 

I have to admit that even though I like her sculpt, I wasn't really tempted until I imagined her as a boy... LOL... my weakness!!!! Girl heads as boys! I have no idea what boy body she'd look good on though. So I'm going to resist the temptation until I start seeing owner pics and then possibly be doomed.

 

I'm honestly obsessed already. I'd decided I want to spend the next year focusing on refining my collection and not adding much more but I know I have to add her to my collection and I want the fullset. Her dress may seem a bit on the basic side to some but I think it gives the accessories their moment. I'm absolutely smitten. I can't wait to see more photos of her.

 

Every elf CP releases gives me ElfQuest vibes. That’s why I love them so much!

 

@Nikki'sNewObsession Your girl is beautiful. Love her face up and the way you have styled her!

 

They released photos of the event heads. I'm torn on how I feel about them to be honest.

Oh yeah, those eyelids would make some really cool things possible!

 

Well, I did it! I ordered Feeple 65 Carol full set that DDE has in stock. I am doing a lay-away, so I have a little while. I have been obsessing over her since the full set first came out. I love the 20s era and have a photo of my grandmother in a flapper outfit that I cherish. (yes, I'm that old!) I have never owned a doll as large as the Feeple 65 so this will be a new one for me! (I am also in love with the new Elf, Nuia, so I need to get this lay-away paid down quickly so I can also order her ) It all happens at once! Now to clear out some room for them... How do you all display your large dolls?

 

@Dollquest
I also collect action figures and Lego and have always made little shelves or tables to display things on.
So my big dolls much like my small dolls have some tables set up with doll scale chairs and such for them to sit on.
Very few of my BJDs are on doll stands. Most just have a chair to sit in or just sit on a self or table. Also a few of my biggest dolls set in chairs made for humans and given those are 70cm plus boys they can have the spots they are in. (not like we get enough guests to worry about seating.)

Oh and I have at any given time a "sofa buddy" or two those are a doll or two that sits by me when I am on my fav sofa/at the PC. They either sit by me or on my desk as I use my PC they tend to be a favorite, or the newest doll/s. Sometimes when my sewing table is set up I'll have a sewing buddy doll.

I do not have to worry about pets or kids though, so my dolls (and my S.O.'s dolls for that matter) tend to sprawl into most rooms in the house.

Also I'm very much taken by the new girl, and might have to try and swing her.

 

@Dollquest My collection is almost all 1/3, and I use the IKEA billy bookcases for them!

 

I this new sculpt!

Can anyone tell me if I can put the Angela face plate I received last year with my Feeple65 Rick on this new girl's body? \

I'd read that FL had changed the heads or head mechanisms on the new bodies and I don't know if that means the new bodies aren't compatible with the older heads/face plates.
