Shoushou Doll 1/4 Discussion

I was wondering about clothes, as these girls seem to have a very distinct body shape. Etsy or having an outfit commissioned might be the best bet for finding something that fits.

Also, my Coco has officially shipped! I was going to give it another day or two before checking in, but the shipping notice appeared in my inbox, saving me the trouble. She's due to arrive on Monday! So excited!

 

She's here! She arrived on Saturday night, and I finally got around to playing with her today. Oh my goodness, I love her!

(Sorry, having issues getting the images to imbed!)

Coco-2

This American Girl Wellie Wishers outfit I had lying around fits surprisingly well! The shirt fits perfectly. The shorts took a little tugging to get over her hips, but they have elastic in the back, so they went on pretty easily. And once they were on, they didn't seem tight on her at all. Wellie Wishers have slightly longer torsos, so the straps on the overalls sit a little loosely. But I think Wellie Wisher clothing is definitely a good option for these dolls! I haven't explored shoe options yet (the shoes for this outfit have gone missing), but at least she's not naked! The sunglasses are from American Girl Melody's accessories. They are of course, ridiculously huge, but I think Coco's rocking them!

 

@ilovecake Congrats on your girl!! She's super cute

 

She looks amazing! Congrats on getting her home! My wallet thanks you for adopting her, cuz I was totally eyeballing her with an itchy finger when I saw her pop up on Divas... Hope you'll share lots of pics as you play with her and give her your finishing touches. She looks crazy cute in those overalls.

 

CUTIE! I love her wig so much. The sunglasses are also so cute and spunky with her expression hahaha!

 

Niko is so lovely, I absolutely adore her sculpt and I would love to have her some day!

Would anyone happen to have a comparison of the Shoushou tan versus Obitsu/AP tan and/or DD tan?

 

Can anyone with a Dodo tell me if she can take 18mm eyes? I'm worried 20s will be too full for my taste, but don't know if I can size down or would need to buy a slim 20.

 

Omg they are so cute!!!
I feel like this sold me on getting a couple of Shoushou dolls

 

Does anyone know if dealers have the Coco with boy body available? It's on their taobao but I haven't seen any other places have it for preorder

 

Can I have the link? I hate navigating taobao, it always kicks me out.
Are you sure it's the official store selling it? Because sadly I have seen recasts

Also newcloversinging can order from taobao for you, you can send her the link and tell what you want and she will get back to you.

 

天貓淘寶海外，花更少，買到寶！

Here is the link! I'm pretty sure it's their official taobao. And yeah I'm so sad recasters got their stuff the dolls are so cute, I hate that I can't trust buying secondhand to get Niko!

I already talked to Christine and she said she couldn't order it, I went to Alice's collection now but I'm waiting for a response. I'd rather buy from a dealer I trust than use a proxy that doesn't usually deal with fragile dolls.

 

Thanks for the link.
I really don't like this body for him, doesn't work with the cute face. I wonder if they sell just the head.
I want a Nico too, I hope shoushou release her again.

That is strange, I know she can order taobao stuff and have ordered through her.

Do you know bjdhiner? It's a Taobao proxy which I think specialises in bjds

 

You can buy just the head, it's 488 or 468 yuan depending on which one you want. I think the deposit is 200 yuan then you pay the rest after? I don't fully understand their preorder form.

I have heard of bjdbhiner but I don't know how reliable it is. I'll look into it more if Alice or legenddoll can't proxy. And I'm not sure exactly why Christina can't, she just said they hadn't sold them in her country for about a year.

 

Please let me know if acbjd or legendoll can do it.
I wonder if the original Coco head still comes with the tongue part. It's not in the pictures of the blank heads.

 

I'm pretty sure it does, based on user review photos!

 

The link on taobao was just for paying off former orders, unfortunately.

I'll just eagerly await their next preorder period (and not miss it this time)

 

Oh no
I hope we get a chance soon. It's such a cute sculpt.
Btw have you seen the Maydoll lemon cat sculpt? It's also a cute open mouth with teeth and tongue showing sculpt. So a bit similar (less energetic I think) and it is currently up for preorder on newcloversinging and janesdollland.

 

I have ordered some items from BJD Bhiner before and it went alright, but not dolls. A little bit slow in correspondence and shipping but my items were packed appropriately. You have to be careful because there are fakes on there too (their site just scrapes taobao listings for bjd-related items) if you have a legit link you can paste it into their search bar and order it that way. Just for future reference since Coco can't be ordered right now. It is an option, but I agree that working through our well-known dealers is a safer bet when it comes to dolls.

I got my Dodo through Luts and they were selling Coco's head separately. So I guess it is possible to order their dolls that way if you want to hybrid. I think you missed it by just a few weeks Coco and Dodo and the little beans versions were still able to order from them last time I checked on my order status, but sold out when I checked today. They don't have any listing for Nico though, I hope she re-releases too.

 

I really like the Maydoll Serval, but I don't know how much I like the chubby body. If I was more confident in knowing the resin colour maybe I would hybrid onto a more mature body? It has a smug look to it, which I like! I'm glad to see more anime sculpts in the resin world!

 

Thank you for letting me know! I have had good experiences with Superbuy if you were looking to try a different proxy service. I found their shipping very good and they took pictures of all my items when they came to their warehouse. They also have the option to add additional protection to packaging if you worry about damage in transit. I have not heard great things about them handling preorders of dolls though. I would however very much reccomend them for in stock items. I have purchased outfits, eyes, and stands with them before.

It's just my luck that I would barely miss them!!! Ah well, I guess I have more time to think about how I would like to customize and dress them haha
