SWITCH Discussion ~ Part IX

@yunomi Unfortunately, Mocha Brown is a limited release. The body is only available when Switch releases a Mocha Brown head, and only if you win and buy the head with it.
Oh, and it’s also impossible to tell when they’ll release anything. You can only find a notice a few weeks before the release on Twitter.

 

it is a seasonal color on switch official site, usually once a year.
Switch just release some mocha brown heads recently. they might open the body option after that.

 

Hello! Does anyone have the measurement of the wrist size/opening for the 64cm girl body? I was thinking of getting the nostalgia hands for an angell-studio 60cm doll and wasn't sure about the fit. :]

Also, is rosy white a good match for AS milk?

 

Hi all! I won this really lovely Switch Sanhong on Y!A. She is modeled on a DDdy body but I was wondering if it's feasible to put the head on either a dollfie dream or a sd13 body? If so what skin tone do you recommend. She is powder beige

 

Oh my gooood! Switch presented their own light grey skin colour. I’m shaking. It looks amazing…

 

Question for those Switch experts: What is the difference between the regular Ryuzo head and the persona version?

Switch is going to be releasing the Ryuzo Persona head in a few days, and I'm thinking of get it. I'm still new to the company, so I only see that the persona version has the eyes semi closed. Is there any other difference?

Thank you!

 

The only difference is, as you said, that the eyes are semi-closed. That's all.
Switch calls their "normal" heads with their names (Ryuzo, Waseon, Doha, etc) and if these heads have "semi-closed eye version, more-open-mouth version, etc, then those sculpts get a name like Ryuzo: Persona, Seolrok: Somnia, Seolrok: Hiver, etc.

Hope that helps.

 

I saw it too! Looks reeeeeeeeaaaally sexy! Can't wait to see people's pics from the Platina Showroom!

 

Thank you for answering my question!

 

Can anyone give me the torso length of the 65cm attractive body? From top if shoulder to crotch? I’m not home to take a measurement ,and the person who is making him a custom outfit asked for this

Thank you!

 

Have you guys seen it? Pavian is now a limited head as well

 

Yeah, saw it too.
The others (Ruan, Shiho) get new faceup which is always a nice thing.

 

Man, when I started thinking of maybe getting a Pavian head for when I eventually get myself a Waseon Hope I manage to snatch him some time in the future. Although, for now I'm way more excited about the new boy wigs they're currently only selling in Platina, like Coleus and Forte Cut. They look stunning! Fingers crossed for an eventual online release.

 

Just sold my forte cut to someone
btw, Pavian is great, i see people modify him to be wink version of Waseon

 

Do you happen to know which size of Forte Cut fits Ryuzo? I can never decide if I should go for size B or M... so I end up getting both when I only need one.

 

Ryuzo is a tricky head, he is in between B & M size. My batch of forte cut is bit tight and i got a B size.
I did not put on Ryuzo, but i suggest you to get a B size.
M might be bit small if you haven't successfully put on any tight wigs of switch.....
Switch product varies slightly in different batches, but they make quite a number tight wigs recently.

 

I'm waiting for those wigs like crazy!!! I'm afraid I will go and buy 10 or more of them because all my big boys besides Switch guys are using Switch's wigs. And if they start selling it in lots of colours..... that's the end of me.

Mugenkaze, thanks for the tip about Ryuzo.
Nowadays I find it hard to put on B wigs even on the bigger heads, but maybe it's just me being a lousy wig-fitter.

 

Gosh, yeah, I'll buy them in all the colours for sure! Maybe even two of each just because I have so many dolls now. Switch wigs are probably the best quality wigs I've ever owned.

 

My Labyrinth body and Huisa Direction head showed up out of the blue yesterday. I got them both in Milk Tea Rose. There is some gapping between the head and neck, but most of it is at the front part of the heads neck hole.

Some thoughts on the Labyrinth body as this is my first Switch body.

The body came with kips in the neck, shoulder and elbow joints, and I like the posing of the elbows and shoulders. It can easily touch it's face and pat itself on the back.

The chest joint also has nice foreword, backward and side to side movement.

Unfortunately, similar to my Migidoll Style 68 body the lower stomach/hip joint is only good for slight foreword and backward movement. It can't be moved side to side at all because there's a resin piece built up inside the body stopping it. I'm assuming this is also to keep it from having the dreaded belly pop some dolls have.

The body sits fine, but has a tendency to want to rock to one side when it's legs are crossed. It also takes a bit of work to engage the knees peanut joint to make it double jointed on account of how long the peanut joint is.

The heel feet don't have a lot of movement or rotation at the ankle. I'll have to see how well the flat feet move later.

For anyone else who may have this body or the new 64 body, but got the heel legs instead, are the knees for the heel legs double jointed? In Switch's pictures I couldn't tell if they were.

 

Forte cut will be released soon
Black and gray colour available.
It looks improved from my first trial batch.
