New Souldoll Double Jointed Boy Osu

he's lovely, but the knee shape bugs me a bit :-/

 

Gah, in love. The knee looks so... odd in those naked pics, but it'd be wonderful for sitting seiza style...

 

I love his face-sculpt, that he also has an optional heartbeat and that he's 63cm in height,
but I still love my old SoulDoll boy-body abs. I was hoping their new boy body would look just
like the old, in muscle-definition, but taller. Guess I'll have to keep hoping.

I think the new bodies SoulDoll has come out with are fabulous! I never cared much for the hyper-ripped-yet-strangely-shallow-chested torso of the previous version. I will grant that the double jointing is a bit heavy handed looking when in action, but when locked together looks very well engineered. Now if only they would sell them separately...

 

Hello hipbones!

Admittedly, the knees do look odd bent like that...but I bet in practice you can get them to bend above or below the joint, keeping the center piece straight with one part or the other--like the leg that's down but bent in the one photo. Makes for less bending angle but more visual appeal. ( A trick I picked up from having a Dollshe boy)

...and I like his face straight off...which is rare for me with Souldolls, actually. Normally I may think they're interesting, or pretty, but definitely not for me. (Well, aside from Lupinus, who is entirely too perfect for a character I have named Clover--looks exactly like him in the promo pics, aside from eyecolor...but he's a chara that I don't need to have as a doll, as much fun as he'd be, so yeah....)
But I like Osu. Lots. In fact, I think he rather looks like someone I have been considering getting a doll of...a reporter/detective/mage character of mine named Louis Derry. ^o^
*adds to list*

 

Oh wow, I can't believe I'm only seeing him now! He's so perfect! I love his face and body. The joints are bigger than most company joints, but their mobility is much closer to a human's.

I'm just so stunned *blink blink*

 

I never do like Souldoll boy default faceups, but underneath all that heavy eyeshadow Osu looks like he could be very pretty. While the joints are a little jarring, I think it won't matter if he keeps his clothes on.

 

I think he is rather stunning myself...a blend of El, Asiter and Sha thrown in for flavor. What is with the month of May and them raping my bank account?!

I cant wait to see when people get the double joints and review them. I hope their mobility makes up for their lack of aesthetic appeal...

 

So it isn't just me! I thought his lips looked so much like Sha's.

I pine fore both the Souldoll doubles. They're just the ideal 60cm dolls! *swoons again*

 

I am thrilled, as my mom has just promised to get me this boy for Christmas! In the meantime, I'll have my Hye to keep me entertained, and to get used to the double joints with.

I really love the look of this boy. I'll probably end up getting the default face-up as well, though I may eventually wipe it and do something a bit lighter and more natural.

I hope that they make his crazy outfit available. I ordered Hye's, I'd like to have his as well.

 

I really love the new face and torso. The knee joints are gigantic, but I guess as long as he keeps his pants on you can't really tell. I really want one. I've been looking around for a taller boy and he's perfect

 

He's pretty, but no hotlinking ^_^

 

Any one else think he looks like a dream of doll, mold- something about the lips. I do like his jointing an awful lot.

 

uh...does anyone have this? It says you can hear it's heartbeat?? It's sixty dollars extra and sounds...odd, but I'm a tad fascinated by the idea lol. Not sure if its an option on all the Souldoll line, or just Osu...

edit: after checking it seems to just be on that doll. Really want to know if anyone has this o.o

Hye, the girl of the Souldoll Double line, is also available with the heart sensor thingie. There´s a Hye here on DoA, I think her owner posted pics just today, but I don´t remember if she has the sensor or not.

 

Ooo, his outfit is up for sale now, too! Although, $250.00, yikes

Still, I've been thinking all along that it looks both more expensive and more difficult to make then Hye's outfit, so I'll probably get it when I order my Osu any way.

I'm crossing my fingers that I'll have enough hours of work in (and a big enough pay check!) to order Osu at the end of June.

Edit: Yes, in an above post I did say that my mom was willing to buy him for me for Christmas... But I have a new job, and am very impatient. I also worry that they won't keep his outfit around forever, and I really do want it.

 

I think this is the sweetest idea, I'd really like to get one as I'm yet to buy my first BJD. I got the impression from the first post that you could listen to it but I can't hear it, what am I doing wrong?

 

It says this feature is powered by a mercury battery, which, when it comes time for disposal can be a big problem.
For environmental, and personal health reasons, I hope that anyone who gets a doll with this feature takes the little extra effort when the battery dies and disposes of it properly.
The idea of a dolls heart beating audibly is very cute and I don't want to rain on the parade of cute, but there is a reason the sale of those batteries has been banned in so many places. I certainly don't mean, don't get it if you don't really want it, but remember that batteries don't belong in land fills, our fish, water, eagles, etc... . Dispose of your batteries properly!
That said, if anyone has a picture of how the mechanism fits into the doll, I would love to see it ^_^. I've seen talk-boxes available for old style dolls and I think it would be awsome/hilarious to see a way something similar could be put into one of our precious BJD.
