Narae/Narin 43/44cm Mini Discussion Part 7

also If they dont fit what are some good high heel feet for the narae?

 

The new magnetic feet don't fit at all on the limited edition body, which I believe takes the same size feet as the older bodies. It's way too large. They only work with the newest bodies which I believe are made to be compatible with minifee sizes. It was very disappointing to receive them having been told they would fit and have them not fit at all.

 

Can anyone who owns the Fusion body tell me what this measurement is (from chin/base of neck to the middle of the palm)? I'm waiting for the body to arrive, but I'd like to order a violin for her

Thank you!

 

So I finally have some time and went to put on my Dandelion head but the backplate holes aren't lining up. Would it be better for me to try and 'shave' off some of the metal bar (old Narae style) or try to take off some resin? I've never played with the resin so it scares me to death. TIA for suggestions.

UPDATE: I used a rasp and filed the metal bar down by hand to fit. Took about 1 hours but success.

 

Here is my girl Bree out and about on December holiday. It was a pleasure to photograph her outside. She is Narae 402 head.

 

@xaya it looks like you've got some amazing locations near you!

I recently ordered a Narin 401 head from Bimong as he had some in stock. I haven't received tracking but he sent me a photo of the box and it's being shipped with EMS so I'm hoping it won't be too long before he's home! Lately I've been wanting to bring home some sculpts that I've always felt huge nostalgia for, so Narin is a part of that I can't wait for him to arrive!

 

I’ve regretted selling my light tan Narae 410 on the old fusion body ever since I did it, but I lost my job at the beginning of COVID and I had very few options but to sell my collection. Since then I’m doing better and I just recently purchased the same doll but in normal, and I’m so over the moon excited and ready to design her faceup 2021 has had its moments but overall it’s shaping up to be a better year!

 

congratulations reeology. So good to hear that things are turning around for you and you've been able to purchase another Narae

 

Thank you, it's not actually close but I should go and see if there's nice places around here. I love my girl. Did you reveice your Narin 401 head? If yes, I'd be pleased to see how he looks and which body you have for him.

@reeology Congratulations, good to hear things are going better for for you!

I'm hoping Bimong will be able to finish the Narin msd body this year, it'd be great to have a Narin too. I'm playing with a thought of getting another Narae in the future, normal maybe, but as mine is light tan I might as well go with the new tan with another girl...

 

@xaya I am at a point where I just want all the beautiful resin color options Bimong has available. I have a light tan n402 girl on the old body, a new tan 41cm fusion body for a hybrid, a new normal 41cm n401 girl, and a milk choco 38cm fusion body n40s girl. I love every single resin color so far.

 

RIGHT THOUGH? I have an older MSD Narin and I’m dying to get him a buddy.

 

I recently received my Limhwa body (I had to order a full Limho Mono, for the body) and put my Narin head on it! It's such a great match, proportion and colour wise. Can't wait to get him some clothes!

 

He looks fantastic! Thanks for the reference.

 

Bimong is now making the Narin msd body, it was in his Instagram yesterday. I'm exited, he said it is possibly pre-order ready on October.

 

I just came here to capslock about the same thing!! 45cm boy coming soon!!!! I’ve had my Narin for 2-3 years and he’s single jointed and I LOVE him, but I’m SOOOOO excited for the new body. Now to decide if I’m only replacing one, or upgrading a body for one and buying a brother for him in addition lol.

 

I had a french resin Narin in the past for a while but I sold him, now I want to have him again and I'm waiting to see which heads will be available and if the boy will have as much hand options and more than one pair of (flat) feet.

Also, I just thought about changing Bree into a three piece torso body, so I had to ask if the current light tan is different from the early 2020 one. Bimong said it was a bit different as he changed the casting company. I don't mind a slight difference in colour but I'm really tempted to buy another girl and just switch the faceplates so that Bree would still be Bree in the other body and I'd have another girl with different faceplate in her original one. ^^; Bimong had posted about girls he's gonna sell in his site during the weekend, all were new normal skin and lilac (?), I'm waiting to see if there's any light tans updated too.

 

Just put down a layaway on a Cocoro on the 38cm body. I’m so excited for her.

 

@dxgirly Congratulations! I'll be waiting for the new normal later on when he has another batch of those. How did you choose the body or was it fixed already when you decided to go with Cocoro?

I'm waiting for the tans, if he has one in light tan that interests me. I'm not sure about the heads, I want her with different face plate than Bree but can't decide which if there's chance to choose.

 

He was the one who messaged me actually, because I had asked a few weeks prior how to order one of his dolls these days, and expressed my interest in a Cocoro. So he reached out today and said he had some dolls available. I asked if he had any Cocoro heads, because he hadn’t listed those in his Instagram post, so he went and found one and took a pic of it with body pieces. Then he asked which torso configuration I wanted and which bust size, and I guess I just lucked out, because it worked out perfectly. I’m so happy! If he hadn’t messaged me, I wouldn’t have even realized she was available!
