Loongsoul 1/3 doll discussion Part 5

*hugs* Crossing fingers for a speedy arrival.
Waiting can be really hard.

newclover-singing has been my trusted dealer since I got into the hobby around 12 years ago and I had mostly good experiences - especially in terms of shipping speed, so I never tried any others. Got lucky from the start.

 

Hi, would anyone be so kind as to post or link me to to pictures (either blank or with a faceup) of their Cang Jue or 28 Lunar Mansions-Leopard Ji Shui Bao heads? Trying to decide between these two sculpts for a doll and would like to see some owner pictures!

 

Here's my Cang Jue with the official faceup

 

I just saw Alice's Collection announce the discontinuation event. It's such short notice D: I might have to rearrange some plans and order a Fusang because I've been eyeing her for a while. Shame that it seems like her official face-up isn't available anymore. I wonder what the reason behind it is.

It's also a shame to see the moon fairies and Jiao Mu Jiao getting discontinued since I really liked those sculpts.

 

I'm sad about Jiao Mu Jiao! I really love him and think he's adorable, but don't have a character for him so he's on my "maybe someday" list, but I guess that's not likely to happen now :/ i don't think I've ever seen any pop up second hand, and I can't justify the expense right now

 

Right? Jiao Mu Jiao is my favorite and I'm glad I already have him (three different versions ^^°) but still so sad u.u
Hope they might at least do a heads only sale so ppl can secure his sculpt and get him a body later.

 

I really wish Loongsoul would sell heads separately since I would prefer some of their dolls as hybrids, but it seems like they don't have any plans to Have they ever done a heads only sale?

 

Ahh that's a shame about the discontinued models, Jiao Mu Jiao had been one I had been considering for a while.
But maybe this means they'll come up with new models in the near future?

And afaik they haven't sold heads separately? They did many years ago have an event where you got an extra head when you ordered a full doll.

 

I remember about 10+ years ago you could buy heads on their own.
They stopped that about about 2-3 years after I joined the hobby if I remember correctly. Maybe if enough people poke them through their social media if they could make an exception for the molds they are about to stop they'll consider?

 

Sad about Jiao Mu Jiao, I might order him. ACBJD has flexible layaway. I can't really afford him right now and don't love it when dolls go off plan, but he was always on my maybe someday list too. Really adorable sculpt

 

I'm really glad I bought Moon Fairy this year now, but it's sad that a bunch of beautiful sculpts will be discontinued! Hopefully 2024 will bring more lovely sculpts at least.

 

I decided to go ahead with ordering FuSang but now I'm torn on whether I should order her clothes as well. They're very pretty, but at the same time they don't seem that special (no unique patterns or similar) and it might be a good challenge to sew something similar myself

 

I wanted to share a picture of my Yan Ling. I don't see many owner photos of him.
He is in White Skin and on the 68 cm body, .

 

He looks so lovely! I'm really digging how you customised him

 

Wow, he's gorgeous!! I love how you styled him. He looks like he could be a book character.

 

Oooh, he's lovely!

 

He's beautiful!!

 

Thank you all! You're all very kind! I hope to see more Yan Ling's in the future. He's a very cute sculpt, !

 

Did I understand the news correctly on the LS Weibo page? Will a Loongsoul Picture Album book actually be released soon?
That would be so great!

 

Ooohhh that would be so cool!
