IMPL dolls Star, Model & Idol Discussion 16

Oh man it's gorgeous! That posing is magnificent! I'm trying to tell myself that I don't need to replace my 2 current Impldoll bodies, but one gal is pretty scantily clad and would show it off well...

 

The posing is so nice! But I literally just bought Mona on the old body... (and she is still naked).

 

Does anybody here own either Andreas or Darlene (Glitter ver.)? I would love to see them in people's photos, but I don't think I have ever seen Andreas anywhere. I found a few Darlenes from Instagram, but none of them had the Glitter version's company makeup. I am currently very interested in those two.

I also love Eudora! I'm happy that there are several owner photos of her around, she looks stunning.

 

@Thymeseer and @light the light - well, this is the 65 cm body. Impldoll promised to release a new 68 cm body, and if you can snag the body right at release, I got a great deal on mine. They offer a discount ($280 instead of $330) or free hands/feet/head. So if you're willing to wait...

 

Yeah I bought her on the 63 cm body... not sure how the 68 cm body will look.

 

My Impldoll Imara showed up yesterday out of the blue. She's stunning! I'm so impressed with the quality of their dolls. Still waiting on my Impldoll Eudora.

 

The heads are pretty much the same size. The 63 versus 68 cm bodies are like Iplehouse's EID versus HID - they just made the arms and legs a little longer.

 

@MaleficentMrsofEvil Ah, an excuse to make my sorceress an Amazon? I might have to go for the bigger body!

 

Do eeeeeit. Heh heh heh.

 

*sigh* My first choice for a custom wig maker completely ghosted me after I sent reference pics Just contacted my backup, whom I'm used before, to see if he can do it.

 

Hi! I'm new to the community. I've been looking at some IMPL sculpts that I really love (Zona and Eudora, mostly), but I noticed a lot of the US dealers linked on the wiki here no longer carry them or do not exist. The only place I see that I can purchase them is on the IMPL website or Alice's collections. I was curious if one of them is preferable or if there's somewhere else I should shop from. Thanks in advance!

 

Howdy! Impldoll is a Chinese dealer, and during the Pandemic That Shall Not Be Named, a lot of US dealers got burned (China having a zero-tolerance policy and shutting down their main shipping ports for months at a time).
Impldoll is actually a pretty great company to order from. Regardless of whether you order from Alice's Collections (aka ACBJD) or directly from Impldoll, they ship directly to you. Impldoll customer service is fantastic, so the choice really comes down to whether you want to order stuff from other companies at the same time or not.
One downside of ordering directly from Impldoll is that you'll notice a lot of their outfits aren't available for purchase anymore. If you want clothes, you're going to want to order from ACBJD, who offers free shipping but charges PayPal fees extra.
I've done both, and both were about the same speed.
Let me know if you decide to order! Those are both stunning sculpts.

 

Stupid question, but ACBJD is Alice's Collection, right? I haven't been able to access the website ever since my browser's antivirus started blocking it for not having a secure connection... anyone know of a workaround?

 

@light the light - correct. I can't view their website on Mozilla (it makes the browser angry), so I have to use Chrome. Their website... it's old. But if you aren't comfortable using their website to order, you can always email them, and they'll send you a PayPal invoice.
Oops - forgot to add: if you want to do a layaway, they require 30 percent down.

 

@light the light Perhaps check to see if your antivirus has a whitelist option where you could add the site to so it won't block it?

 

Thank you so much!!! Im going to start saving for them now tehe

 

Anyone ordering during the event? I'm finally going to pick up a Nicolas head. I'm just on the fence between real skin or cream white. I already have an example of their new real skin which seems pretty easy to match (especially since I'm not very picky), but I was debating adding him to my vampires, so cream white might work better.

Does anyone have an example of the color?

 

I bought a blank Eudora head in RS. They said it would ship very soon.
