So our waiting begins. Maybe I wasn’t searching enough, bud couldn’t find waiting room. So I m not sure, how long are waiting times.
If you bought directly from the company then the website says 30-60 days after they receive payment. Which in my opinion isn't that long,at least not for a bjd I made a waiting room myself because I also couldn't find a waiting room: https://denofangels.com/threads/raccoon-doll-waiting-room.891467/
Congrats on getting your Kens @sylvesther and @LadybugCZ ! What resins did you get him in? I have a Ken in normal resin. He's a sculpt I don't see often on the boards, but I really like him! In His Element by wizgerg3, on Flickr
I've got him in normal resin skin, once I saw Ken's lips I knew he would be perfect for the character Hannibal Lector,the Mads Mikkelsen version
Yes, tap art from yours, I maybe saw only two other Kens. Or maybe I m just not good at searching. Anyway, I got him in normal resin too. He looked most Asian sculpt to me from sculpts on their website.
@JinCIncy Your Ken is so stylish! Where did you buy his clothes if I may ask? Also, hello Raccoon fans! Out of curiosity, have they ever had a 50% off for their 1/4 ladies? I'd love to get a Laetitia in dark mocha in the future.
@sageyufi His clothing is from Iplehouse, FID line. It's an older outfit that I don't believe is available anymore.
Got my Nina through today and as a first for raccoon dolls I'm really impressed! She's gorgeous! Is it normal for the dolls to smell so much? My golly does she smell bad! Just a couple of questions What sized wig is best for the 1/4 scale ladies Where is the best place to get shoes? I am desperate to find long lace up boots.
My Ivy arrived today as well! She's lovely. She's intended to be Aerith from Final Fantasy 7, but I don't have a proper wig or eyes for her, so you can't really tell. Cloud is still happy(?) to see her, though. New dolls do tend to smell; it's the resin outgassing. The girl dolls take 5-6" wigs.
Congratulations on your new girl! Thank you for telling me that about the smell, I've never had a doll with that smell so I was a bit taken aback...Hopefully it will go off, thanks for the info on the wig!
Awww, what can be better smell in our hobby, than new resin smell. Congrats on both new dolls. My Ken should be shipped soon as well.
Trouble is I've smelled new resin before and this does not smell like,e the new resin smell you usually get. It smells terrible, I hope it goes off as it smells really chemically.
Oh. I see. Maybe some smell from box. Hmm now I can’t wait to get my Ken to see if he has some smell as well
I've had a lot of dolls arrive with odors but all have turned out fine. I would recommend wrapping it in a towel or fabric and let it rest for a while. Sometimes the oder comes from the packing materials.
