Thank you for the photo and information. I never would have thought to purchase Impldoll's Real Skin, as I am only familiar with Iplehouse's Real Skin, which would be way too dark for a Normal Skin Fantasia Doll head. Your Vivian is beautiful on her Ipldoll body. It looks like a great color match. Her male companion is also marvelous. About people not getting COAs and items they bought, that is really sad. One reason I didn't order from Fantasia Doll when it was an active company is that wait times seemed to be long and I needed to know that people were getting their dolls and were happy with them before I made a purchase. When they closed down, I was wishing I'd ordered the items I wanted. Eventually, I was able to find heads on the secondary market. I thought that everyone eventually had received what they ordered, except for the COAs. Did anyone ever receive COAs? I'm sorry that people were left without their orders. I hope there is some recourse. It's a lot of money to spend, just to be disappointed.
As far as I know it was the CoAs and free heads to compensate for production delays that were not sent out, and that everyone eventually got what they actually paid for? There seemed to be a real struggle to get the last of the paid-for dolls out but I was under the impression that they had all finally been sent? ... adding a photo of Vivian on an Iplehouse HID body;
Rose got some new pants for her alternative(modern) outfit and I rushed to take pics but... not one of the pictures actually have her pants visible I took a few more pictures but this is probably my favorite The rest are here.
This is my FD Barbara on April Story 16 girl body. The white skins are pretty alike, almost no difference, but the neck looks a little bit short and the hands tend to seem large for this head. Nevertheless I'm very satisfied with this hybrid. And the short neck was fixed with a double layer suede laying.
Kasia_I, your Barbara is absolutely beautiful. Thank you for sharing her photo! I'm so happy to find out that April Story bodies can be hybridized with Fantasia Doll heads.
I haven't looked into this thread for quite a while. It's nice to see a Barbara! Keep your pictures coming -- these girls and boys need some love despite being in production for only a short while.

I finally painted one of my girls and now I'm totally in love with her! Mindy Mae Freeman on Instagram: “Fantasia Doll sleepy Alice - personal collection. I had to take a video because the still pics completely dulled out her eyeshadow and…”
You SHOULD be proud! She is stunning! I think this company is sadly done. Maybe in a few years once his health is better..?
Oh, she looks great! Isn't all that eyelid 'real estate' wonderful? She looks so glamorous! Here's my sleepy Vivian in a new top (she's on an Iplehouse EID body);
I would personally write them off- and if they come back in the future, it'll be a very pleasant surprise!
I'm constantly hoping for them to come back or to find someone selling one on the marketplace by some chance...but no luck at all...
Occasionally you'll see one up on the MP... stay vigilant. It may be a few years. Also try a WTB ad on the MP; they get answered.
She's a beauty! I love the aristocratic look of your Vivians. And I admire how often your girls get new fashionable garments and those stunning wigs.
