    1. Damn, I fell in love... Completely *¬* Damn! And he's so expensive! My wallet does NOT deserve this T__T I feel I need him. Not his wolf parts tho, nor the head. But I need him and the clothing, oh my... Him and Akando look like two characters of mine... Maybe I'll just wait for the basic version ;__; (I want the clothes tho).

    3. I saw the ears poking out of the wig in one of the other shots. I definitely like the wolf head look on Shadow Chase better than the white skin tone.

    4. :sweat Ugh, I'm sorry but every time I look at this new guy wolf version I think FUBAR. I so hope that they offer some new head sculps in normal skin for him once he's off the LE circus train. Something more rugged and less pretty hopefully.

    5. Gosh I wish they made him in RealSkin, I would've loved to have the wolf parts for my SE Luo, because his character is a werewolf ;-; Granted I'm not regretting getting Luo, since he's such a hottie I've always wanted, I dunno, maybe if I just blush the parts to match or work around it ^^;;; Another main issue is the head would not match the sculpt of Luo...feet and hands aren't such a bad thing :3

    6. In case anyone's wondering, Iple told me Evan will be available on the new body end of November, so assume that's when the basic version of Chase will come out too.

      And I requested that comparison, dunno if anyone else did too... Now looking at it, cream white is pale. *_* Hmmm.... On one hand comparing Mike to Iple NS makes him look super pale and yellowish, so getting a cream white Chase versus the usual pink white would be better, but on the other hand I dunno if I want to go in the more yellow direction... His skin looks like a very cold tone in those photos.

      EDIT: And whoa, that wolf head looks so much better close up.

    7. After seeing the new model body I've always thought Evan is better suited for that body type. With his face looking so effeminate, a slimmer body would make more sense.

    8. I think the Cream White looks more noble and special compared to Rose White. It's like it is glowing, such a bright pale skin, perfect for the character I have in mind. I usually had hoped for Realskin before (for another character), but the more I think of it, I like this Cream White more, even Iple will definately release RS next year too. Realskin and the regular skin colours are quite "usual", live-like. But this Cream White looks so special to me, like not from this world (sorry, I can't find the right words to describe how I feel about this:sweat), which is perfect for mystic characters. I think Cream White with full bodyblushing will look really elegant. What I love most about it, is that I can see the blue veins so much better, like translucent skin. :love

    9. Argh, after seeing that cream white comparison, I have to find myself a pair of the wolf hands in that skin tone! The rest of him doesn't really appeal to me, sadly. Still with several others here, though, in thinking that it would have been great if they had released him in real skin. He'd be gorgeous in that tan color!!

    10. Wonder when they are going to release him in NS.....hopefully by 2010 if be sooner than later.

    11. I really love this guy, especially the dark skin... But that wolf head... lol, I laughed some when I saw it. He looks so silly with his teeth sticking out of his mouth like that. I'd like to get him when he comes in standard mode, but sadly I doubt they'll have him in dark skin. I'm glad he finally came out though; I've been dying to see what he was going to look like. Though his head isn't my cup of tea, I think the concept is pretty cool.

    12. I wonder if they'll do a special second body/optional release for him, like they did with Luna Tamer, so people can have bodies for both his heads.
       
      #172 Kiyakotari, Nov 3, 2009
    13. The second body was an inspired idea on Iplehouse's part, and it totally made my day. :) I wouldn't be surprised if they did the body offer option, but who knows? It would be an awesome thing if they did though. :)

    15. Wow, it's almost a little hard to tell the difference. I mean, obviously he's a little taller and leaner, but not by much.
       
      #175 labeth, Nov 5, 2009
    16. I agree.......there isn't as much difference in the bodies as I originally thought there would be. I do like the abscence of the butt plates in the new body though.
       
      #176 JinCIncy, Nov 5, 2009
    17. Yup! Not too much of a change in body size. You could see it the in the torso and thighs but it looks like that's it.:huh?:

    18. Oh man, I just caught up with their gallery photos, & that looks like a HUGE difference in bodies!

      Check out the way the arms hang; Model's hang much closer to his sides.
      And check out the visibly longer legs.
      And check out the trapezius muscles, which have been deflated so far that it makes his neck look thinner (which Iple says is actually not).
      The depth of the triceps is visibly smaller, even at a glance.
      Ditto the shape & depth of the pectorals, in profile.
      The different widths of the leg muscles is drastic. On the left, Kamau's legs are set noticeably further apart, and shorter, and the curves of the muscles are more pronounced.
      The shape of the abs is totally different from the front, and their thickness is visibly different from the sides.
      And... Chase has about half the ass. ^^ Definitely cannot share pants.

      With alla that out of the way, I sure do like the way Dark Brown Human-Head Chase looks, after all, standing there next to Kamau. In that dark resin, shot from a distance, he looks much more like the rest of the Iple Family than his original pix seemed to; he could be a cousin of Lion, if mixed with Soom Euclase. :> Tan resin does such great things to their male sculpts...

    19. That doll is awesome as a human but UGH! the wolf face is not my cup of tea!

      (no offense, this is a personal opinion as the teeth remind me of those fake plastic teeth you get that cut your gums, lol). I do not like the direction Iple is going with these dolls. The Circus theme was great, but a furry Circus theme is just unsettling...Soom's started a real furry bandwagon with a lot of companies....it might sit better with me if the parts were optional.

    20. his face is a little feminine. i like that! and the body?.... hmmm.. quite well?? I think it would be beautiful if he had a long legs just to match in hiz bulky body.! ^^V

      when I saw him I remembered YUNOKI AZUMA in La corda D'oro! hahaha! it looks like he's hiding something!.. an evil plan I supose?! ^^
