Raccoon Doll Discussion - Part 6

She is so beautiful!!! I’m such a fan of all the Laetitias and you’ve styled her so beautifully!

 

@LyanneNZ I've always fawned over Laetitia, she looks beautiful. How does she compare next to your Aaliyah? Are they very similar?

 

I will have to get them photographed together and see what you think...I guess they could very easily be in the same family I have another Laetitia too but I couldn't resist this face up.

I have done a quick side by side of them but it would be fun to use your query as a reason to get them together for photos!

Oh wow, they are quite similar! But still different enough to be unique! I’ve often thought Lahela has a similar look too.

 

This thread is so dangerous, but their Rosie has my whole heart right now. I saw on the description it said 6mm eyes. Is that what y'all been using? With how big an iris? I'm horrible at judging sizes.

 

Yes, 6mm is the best fit I've found, or occasionally 8mm, which is annoying as there aren't many eyes available in that size! I've recently discovered Heart Of A Fairy, if you order 8mm with a 4mm iris, they seem to fit very well. I think most 6mm eyes have a 4mm iris too? Not sure! Maybe someone else has more info! Anyway, here's the Heart of a Fairy website, or they have an Etsy store too: EYES

 

@LyanneNZ thanks! Yes it would be cool to see them in a photo together. Side by side, Laetitia looks so playful!

 

@LyanneNZ your gals are stunning!!!

 

The sale event is gonna break me, I just know it. The Limited face-up Nina? SO GOOD. It's a sculpt I like, but that faceup just wow. Now I'm stuck between her and Rosie.

OPE. My finger slipped (literally, I swear), and I ordered Nina.

 

Congratulations!!! They have such good sales, it’s always so tempting isn’t it?! And I love all the new face ups!!!

 

Now to do all the rest of the planning for a new baby. She's my first 1/4, so I don't have anything for that size.

 

Wow, Nina is so pretty and looks like Nathalie Portman. I would instantly buy her if I wasn't on no buy hold for a year. Congrats to people who got her, good choice. If they rerelease her later I will buy her too.

 

I totally agree, when I first saw the limited faceups I immediately thought of Natalie Portman. I wonder if they would put that faceup on Elf Nina? Do I neeeedddd another elf.....

 

Hooray I finally have a raccoondoll man! I was able to purchase a second-hand elf Ron and he arrived yesterday. So far I'm very happy! No pictures yet, he will need a faceup, and for that we need better weather haha.

 

Tysm for the compliment, morganatron

She's been "done" for a bit now, but here she is! The thigh high boots I got her didn't quite fit right so I'll need to eventually find other ones.

 

I totally fell in love with Elf Lea and the limited faceup. Totally gorgeous, with the painting on the forehead and those crystal eyes.
I think she might become my first Raccoon Doll.
Is anyone else planning on getting her?

 

I don't usually lie such dark lipstick but she is tempting!

 

Can someone please tell me how the discount works? When I choose all options for Elf Lea it shows the discounted price of $358, but when I put her into the cart the prize is shown as the normal $430 again. Am I missing something here?

 

When you go to checkout you will see a discount applied.

 

I almost made it through the entire sale, too, but I broke down and ordered a Celine on the slim body in Sweet Mocha! I'm hoping she goes well with the Granado Orion I ordered a couple of months ago. I'm so looking forward to them! Thanks to everyone who's posted their dolls here. It really helped me make a decision!
