@IzabethS - she is so cute! I'm trying to save up for a different doll, but in stock is so tempting! I most recently ordered a mnf DES, so they could be sisters.
Thank you! And yes they definitely could be sisters!! Mine is an only child, but her mother is the queen of the pirates, who loves her dearly heh. I need to get pics of them together again…
Are all DES kiddos so dramatic? Morgan arrived and was obviously not going to be a sweet little girl...I'm sure she's plotting now to get me to make her a pirate queen because somehow being queen of the fey won't be good enough . Morgan by clochette62, on Flickr
Thank you...I love how mature DES looks compared to many other LTF faces. More teenager than child. Dressing her is a lot of fun.
Hello everyone I don't post often, but wanted to share the 1 photo from like 50 that came out 'ok' when I took Ivy (LTF chiwoo) To the woods and fields with me Ivy gets forgotten I must confess, but she was my first ever tiny so has a special place in my heart Gone threw a few character changes xD Have you guys changed/adjusted your ltfs names/characters at any point?
She's a cutie! And yes all the time. Does my littlefee even have a name anymore? Her character changes a lot.
My Elf El, Kailani arrived today Faceup and eyes soon! Also bonus of my gifted Pukisha faceplate on the body too, they will be sharing once i match the Pukisha. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53106126357_5435b2e5af_z.jpg
i've wanted a littlefee cygne for three years now and i'm trying so hard to resist buying one in-stock on dde right now... the only thing holding me back is that it comes with the fairyland faceup and i wanted a blank face so i could get a custom faceup done. but the faceup can always be removed right? i'm so conflicted on what to do omg
I don't want to be an enabler, but Cigne is one of my favorite and I have her with her FL face-up. IMG_4207 by Jane K, on Flickr
@lovegarden YES! CPFairyland's faceups can be removed and a new faceup done. Faceup artists will charge a bit more to remove a pre-existing faceup unless you remove it yourself. Personally, I'd let the faceup artist remove it unless you already have all the tools and supplies needed. If I were you, I'd buy that in-stock Cygne. (She's GORGEOUS!) CPFairyland has retired Littlefees with no re-releases planned. Even with a re-release, it's possible that Cygne would not be offered. Best of Luck on your Cygne quest!
Well, I must thank you all for talking about instock dolls at DDE. I went to look at Cygne but they had a Leah in stock! I sold my Leah to a good friend years ago and I have missed her. So I snapped her up!
Yes, this thread is good for that! I have a Leah and a DES coming Monday because of the discussions here!
I *think* they're only discontinuing some of the sculpts, not all. If I read the announcement correctly, they're probably redesigning the bodies like they did with the Minifees a couple of years ago. I hope so, anyway, because they're a perfect size to both take places and sew for. I, for one, would love to see a LTF version of Iset. @lovegarden. this is Siobhan, my Cygne, modeling an outfit I made a couple of months ago. It's based loosely on an eveningwear style from the early 1900s. 20230924_110918 by
@Answer42 thank you! i'll just have the faceup taken off by the artist then and i think i'm going to go for the cygne!! i'm super excited since i haven't owned a bjd since 2015, and i was in middle school then so i didn't really have the proper resources to maintain a bjd and ended up having to sell both of mine. now i'm an adult with a steady income and can actually justify getting a bjd this time! @LadyMadrigal i think so too. i don't think cygne is at risk of being discontinued since she's more recent, but i don't want to take any chances. plus in the announcement it said they would be back with a price increase, so i'm just going to snag mine now. when pukifees were temporarily discontinued it took 3 years for them to come back and i don't want to wait that long. also your cygne is gorgeous!! i don't have any experience in sewing but it's such a cool skill to have. update: i just placed my order on dde!!!! i'm so excited
i did!! i remember back when i got my pukipuki i preordered it and it felt like it took forever to get here, so i'm glad i went with an in-stock doll. she shipped already and is on the way to me!!
I think my favorite version of Cygne is the Littlefee version! Definitely a good idea to snag an in-stock doll. I've learned the hard way that FL can be very erratic with their releases, and once something is discontinued all bets are off. *coughFeeple70cough* It took about 5 months but my LTF Chiwoo boy arrived a few weeks ago, and it's been a long time since I opened a doll and had "love at first sight", especially blank! I can't wait to get him painted. But I think he wants a friend, so hopefully FL won't take too long to bring LTF back. Maybe we'll get a list of discontinued sculpts soon, at least. ^^
my cygne is here!! i've actually had her for a while now but wanted to get better pictures before i posted her here. that didn't happen so these ones from right after i unboxed her will have to be good enough for now. she has clothes, eyes, and wigs on the way from taobao right now and i can't wait!! https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53231530777_6b6b5b469f_z.jpg
