IMPL dolls Star, Model & Idol Discussion 16

    2. I think there’s a good chance but after the promo for a free head on the star muscle body is over, it would cost more.

    3. I'm sure you can order her as a basic doll now, but you'll have to pay regular price. Impldoll tends to only do promo pricing when they release new bodies.

    4. Hello there!
      Does anyone know the measurement for Impldoll 68 female body's high heel feet?

      Thank you very much in advance.
       
    5. @Domitila According to their official measurements, the flat feet are 7.5 cm by 2.7 cm. Anybody can correct me if I'm wrong, I think doll makers make their high heel feet the same length and width as their flat feet counterparts for shoe fitting consistency.

      I recently received two pairs of heels from two different 3rd party sellers for my SartoriaJ middle heel feet and they surprisingly fit fine just going off by the numbers lol Fun fact, I'm also shopping for heels listed for IMPL68 because of the very close sizing. I'll see how that goes :lol:

    6. I have the heel legs. It’s a very strong heel, not a middle heel.

    7. @sageyufi thank you so much! I was a bit uneasy thinking whether there were any size differences between flat and high heel. I don't own many female BJDs only two and they're both from Soom. I was wondering whether different companies had different feet sizes for their flat/ heel lol.

      thanks a lot! <3
       
    8. @Mahgiep I considered purchasing the heel legs, they're so beautiful <3. Sadly the heel shoes I loved the most didn't fit the foot length, thus my hope the heel feet to be a teeny tiny smaller. lol.

    9. I still haven’t put them on or looked for shoes! :mwahaha
       
    10. I ordered a 62cm Star body on February 11 directly from Impl's taobao shop, and last night I got a notice that the body had arrived at the TB's forwarding warehouse. I was not expecting it to ship so soon. Now to just wait for it to ship to me.

      I bought the body for a second hand DZ Cherry head. The resins probably won't match, but I'm hoping to make it work.

    11. @sageyufi Yes, when I got the notice I thought it was one of my clothing orders. I'm looking forward to putting this doll together.

    12. Has anyone else had an issue with their new doll having kicky limbs? I got my first doll, an Impl Ransom, last year and I’ve been trying to stretch out his arm elastic but it’s just as bad as when I first got him. Is this a known thing with Impl or do I need to bite the bullet and replace his arm elastic?

    13. This is news to me, is he on the old idol boy body? I haven't bought any of their boy bodies so I'm not sure about how they pose...

    14. I have 2 older TGB boy bodies (70cm) and the new 75cm. No issues with kickiness although the old bodies make me crazy when the joint in the upper arm moves around and one has magnet hands that constantly fall off. The 75 idol is a dream so far.

    15. I hate that upper arm joint. Neither of my 2 factory strung large boys (or 2 tinies) have any issues with kickiness.

    16. Yeah, I keep thinking about gluing it permanently. I have glued 2 dolls human ears (different company) because I kept losing them when I changed clothes, which I do fairly often.

      I wonder if there’s a twist or something in the arm elastic that makes them kicky.

    17. I keep thinking of gluing it as well. But I'm ultimately lazy and never get around to doing so. The only doll I have where that joint doesn't irritate me is Mkhai (Miguel The Demon Hunter) but that's because of the way his spikes are designed and it seems necessary to have that upper arm joint.

      I think it was a mistake to keep the upper arm joint and remove the thigh joint on the newest version of the Model body (it should've been the other way around in my opinion).

    18. I understand that joint was supposed to allow more cross the body movement (now elbow double ball joints instead of hinges) but no human arm works that way, haha. But why did they make those terrible magnet hands, one grabby and one resting? Luckily the boy with that body has a mike in his hand a lot since he’s my version of a stocky, muscular r&b Korean singer Ilike. And weak magnets at that.
       
    19. It was? Okay but it would be very weird body movement. And no, a human arm doesn't behave that way unless you've got a horrific break going on there. I suppose the same could be said for the thigh mobility joint (or at least my thigh doesn't work like that, lol). But at least the thigh mobility does actually do something useful in certain posing positions. To be fair, a thigh mobility joint engaged looks terribly unnatural when the doll is nude but with pants/shorts/dress covering the joint, it does look like a natural leg positioning for some poses.
