Luts Model Delf 45cm (MDF) mature mini discussion part 2

Question for anyone who might have a Model Delf Raven: Is his head generally the same size of the other model delfs (which, I believe veer closer to Fashion Mini sizes)? Or is it a bit bigger, like the typical Souldoll/Withdoll sized heads?

 

@Epona Luts has relatively exact head circumference measurements for (more or less) all MDF heads since they do vary a bit and they are unusual for an MSD. The size listed for Raven is 6.1 inches, while my Souldoll Blake is 6.5 inches.

 

Popping in as I saw people is receiving their elf ravens! Has anyone gotten their elf raven (including body) or only heads as for now?

 

Where have you seen elf ravens, @sunsunmi ? I ordered a full doll in mint grey. Wonder if that will make it take longer.

 

A couple of days ago while lurking some Korean collectors on Instagram. I ordered mine with body and face up so I don't have hopes to receive him for Christmas

 

@Cap'n If your problem was the head not staying on then it's due model delfs having smaller s-hook than what kid delfs use, it's pretty easy to swap the hook and it doesn't even require taking the doll apart or anything. I did the opposite earlier, got the kdf45 body for my model delf head and had to swap the hook for a smaller one for his head to fit. I simply pulled the hook up from the neck with a keyring, slid the new hook in and once I was sure it was in it's place let go of the old hook, pulled the whole thing up from the new hook this time and removed the old hook.

Edit: oof I reread your post and your said it was only the looks that are off, sorry. I'd delete this but apparently that isn't an option. ^^; but oh well, maybe that can be useful information for someone looking to hybrid kid and model delf.

 

@Cap'n not skin matching but here are some.

not great photo sorry. but let me know if you need more, without clothes or fully clothed.

All of them definitely need bigger s hook than one came with modeldelf. I lost it when changing souldoll head, Souldoll's neck hole not tidy and really big (that's why it's wigless, I was afraid fiddling with the head and the s hook can move and slide down the neck). Little Monica's which is slimmer and sculpted nice and tidy.

 

@Cap'n, I apologize took a whole week to answer.
both heads sit comfortably and good range of motion side to side and down. But can only look up a bit. MD can look up marginally better vs Kliff, but Kliff can look down better. Kliff's side to side also marginally better.

neck size i don't think is a problem. both heads sit nicely in my opinion. with LM maybe neck looks slightly longer? If he's tilting his head to the side to the extreme, you can start seeing the top of the neck where it starting to curved/rounded, if this is considered a problem? Hope this can be useful for you

oh i also have this one, a girl Little Monica Little Harmony head, she is Irin.

 

If you still want to see a Withdoll comparison, I can do that. Just let me know!

 

Apparently for this event the model delfs will be added in the third part which will be posted on the fourth week of December. (Their Japanese Twitter said the second part with senior delfs comes at the second week and third part with model delfs comes the fourth week, that's where I got this schedule, haven't seen it posted elsewhere)

I'm excited to see which dolls get mdf sized next or if they'll make completely new dolls and if they keep the same devil theme the kid delfs have or go with something else. I'd be extra happy to get some sort of winking/other eye closed special head but otherwise I have no wishes.

 

I don't have intentions of participating in this event but I'm still excited to see the new model delfs! It'd be nice if this time they have a scaled down girl sculpt and a completely new male sculpt since it was the opposite for the summer event.

My Larimar was sent off to a faceup artist soon after I got her but I wasn't able to open her up until yesterday. She came out exactly how I imaged her and I'm so happy


She's got the eyes she came in for now since her eyes are still on their way but I actually like how they look!

 

@Serein your Larimar is so adorable!

 

@digi thank you so much!

 

@Serein : So cute to see your Larimar all done! I love the color combinations you picked out for her

 

@Serein - such a cutie. Thst celery green wig is fabulous.

 

Thank you both so much!

It's funny cause I never realized just how long I've wanted a mdf until I was looking through the old discussion thread while waiting for her and there I am commenting on the first release of the girls in 2014! I'm so glad I've finally got my girl home~
