Ringdoll Grown Dolls, thread #9

Ring Doll just released Baldwin and are already teasing their next release. Looks like a doll based on Bastet? (Little sad it's not a girl doll because Bastet is Goddess but oh well)

 

i had said no more resin and no more big boys but i saw baldwin and fell in love immediately T_T can't wait to get him

 

Weird question but has anyone ever removed the paint from a prepainted part? Like a piece of resin armor or crown or robot stuff? I would like to change colors for some ringdoll stuff I have but am unsure if they are actually painted or cast that way and whether the paint is some kinda permanent or not if they are.

 

The robotic arm I bought was silver resin and I painted it to look copper and brass for Steampunk. Changing the color with paint is the same as with a faceup you just need to seal it and paint it. You don't need to remove the paint if there is already some on it.

Am I crazy or is Ring Doll's Bast just Senkai?

 

They're definitely different sculpts. Could be siblings, though

Oh as if I wasn't already pining after Baldwin, now they have to tempt me with Bast? Egyptian themed dolls are such a weakness of mine.

 

Bast is very cute, but he doesn’t have that pouty ‘I could kill you with a finger, but I can’t be arsed’ thing that Anubis has.

 

Haha, that's a really good way of putting it!

 

My self and a few others were wondering what parts of baldwin might be metal or resin. I got my first ring doll today and his full set has metal accessories. The armor on my doll is actually metal. And they sent me a special cloth to help with wiping away tarnish on the silver. I was suprised the metal for the outfit is actually silver and not some other kind of metal. (thats what is says anyway). But another part of it is resin with a silver pigment. I expect for Baldin his hands, mask and chest armor will be in resin. While his crown will be actual metal.

The metal is thin, but trying to bend it with just my hand doesn't do anything. I think with enough force the silver could bend.

 

Did anyone end up purchasing Raymond 2.0 that was released last year? I'm curious as to what he looks like outside of promo pics.

 

I have posted several pictures on the Ringdoll mini thread. Some asked if he could sit with his legs crossed.


There is an earlier post with a comparison of two other dolls also.

 

I've been wondering about the choices with metal vs resin vs plastic as well. For my Hua Cheng, most of his accessories are metal, but E'ming (sword) is plastic. I assume it's because of rules against metal weapons being shipped overseas, even if they're fake.

 

Could also have to due with weight. Resin and metal would be too heavy most likely for the doll to pose with. Unless the sword is thin.

 

Can anyone tell me about how long Ringdoll takes to ship recently? I know they take forever and I'm not impatient. I have a lot of experience with wait times, but the only other Ringdoll I've ever had was in stock, so I'm curious. I'm extremely excited about Baldwin and know I'm looking at a few more months, but I want to know when I can start getting hyped

 

Have any of you seen the pumpkin head? I'm cackling at it, but I do love the vampire skull underneath.

I'm forbidden from buying more dolls right now since the holidays are around the corner.

 

Has anyone seen their Joker? I don't really like anything associated with the character BUT I love the outfit they gave him so much!! I need a silly jester knight in my life

 

UUUUGHHH I'm so tempted to get Xie Lian ( comic version ) to go along with Hua Chung ! what to do!

 

I love Joker's outfit so much

 

Can anyone tell me the difference between Ringdoll's normal skin and wheat skin? It seems that the wheat is a bit darker and maybe more yellow toned? Is the normal skin more pink toned or is it yellow toned as well but lighter?
