Congrats Valli! I'm so happy for you! I'm glad that waiting paid off! It would have been a shame if things hadn't worked out. Please posts pics when you're done making her beautiful!
I was just on ebay and Jack has a Leile listing for $115. man, I undersold my Leile. I got her for free with my new Freya and I sold her for $90. I could have gotten more for her!
Oh also, Valli how are her hands? That's a biiig issue for me with dolls, the hands must move me as well as the face!
yes, I made Dark-hunter very happy. But I could have made an extra $25 on her! That could be a new wig! EDIT: OMG! I just went by Denver Doll Emporium and they are selling leile for $160! I'm really wishing I had sold her for more now!
You can see in the photo that her hands aren't anything special, but she won me over because I could see something special in that face. She has the most gorgeous shaped chin. I'm so glad I managed to bring out the sweetness I saw hidden. She poses well, too. I bought mine for less than $90 plus shipping. To be honest I wouldn't have paid more than $100 for her because she is an unknown quantity. I can see them becoming something very special, but I think the hands need some improvement. IMHO.
Before I sold my Leile, I played around with her to see if I could bond with her. She has a cute body and she has a cute face, the thing that turned me off from her was that her head was just too big for her body. I probably would have kept her if her head to body ratio was a little bit more appropriate. As for the hands, they were cute. They were plain, but cute. I doubt they will 'move' you Mitya, but they are not so plain that it would be worth it to pass up on the doll.
I do find her hands to be rather cute and so uniquely hers. This is quite a special girl and certainly would get one of my own were it not for my financial situation right now^^; I have so many little sweeties I am dying to bring home, but such is the way for us doll lovers is it not?
absolutely. I am trying wishing for a BBB Ariel and a Puki Sugar, but I doubt I will ever get either one because I just had our second baby so now our financial situation is crunched. Another reason I wish I had sold my Leile for more than $90.
Ornya gets a new dress and I gave her an apple tail. I really love this girl. She's fantastic to pose!
Hahaha You are indeed If it's not Felixdoll Brownies and Small Comforts, it's B&G Leiles and who knows what else I don't know what everyone would do without your encouragement. There would certainly be less adoptions in the tiny bjd world anyway
Hi Valli, I've been away and just got back, I was wondering how things worked out for you with your Leile... I see you have her and she's terrific! What a cute girl, I love her in the dark wig!!!
Oh dear. I see I have a reputation. Yes, she just arrived amid the complications. I was so surprised. She didn't look anything without her face up, but I soon sorted that out and now she's a treasure. She poses so well. I'd highly recommend these dolls. They are lovely. I'm so glad I bought her this wig. It's perfect. Thanks so much for checking in.
