SWITCH Discussion ~ Part IX

Anyone win the Concerto event raffle? I applied for Yido but didn't win I'm hoping he gets another release in Milktea or Mocha Brown normally at some point.

@Littlebirdzoom Once you buy the coupon it takes up to 1 business day but they'll load your account with the points. You can use the points at checkout as a cash equivalent. It's worth it if you're buying a body cause it'll pay for most of the shipping at least.

 

seems gyoha & yido are popular in this event. I have seen a couple of wanted posts in different social media

 

Both are amazing. I really hope Switch re-release Yido in MB one day when I have the money to get him. I'm so broke after getting Gyoha in PB...

 

I'm confused because the coupon is $500? So I would be spending $500 on nothing in order to get a small amount of points? It just seems strange or I'm totally missing something.

 

You spend $500 to basically get $550 equivalent in points.

 

I also order PB gyoha, after watching lots of great photos from other owners.
he is the smallest head ever in my switch collection.

 

Me too! Gyoha is an amazing sculpt, and you can do almost anything with him, and he'll still look great. I'm slowly collecting materials to try and do his face-up myself once he arrives.

Is his head smaller than Soseo's? I kinda missed that info on Switch's website.

 

That part I get! So I spend $500 and get $50 worth of points to spend, but does the other $500 get put towards something? Or does my account get credited with $550 so then I use that to like... purchase a body or something? Actually that makes sense.... I knew I was missing something really simple here Sorry for being so annoying lol!

I'm wondering if I should use it to buy the mocha body for my Gyoha too.

 

You spend $500 and get 550 points, so you basically have $550 on your account that you can spend on anything you want, like a body!

 

That makes soooo much more sense I'm a dummy. Thank you thank you!! Not sure why it didn't click lol

 

I do not have any talent on artwork, sending him to my favorite artists for makeup probably is my only choice.
soseo is 9inch, gyoha is 8.5inch
I need some new wigs for gyoha

 

I understand you very well! Sadly, all the artists whose work I admire live in South Korea and rarely take international commissions. So trying to learn how to do face-ups is kinda my only choice. I'm going to try my best!
I also haven't even thought about what kind of wig I want him in. I want to get something from Switch but I'm not sure how often they restock their wigs...

 

It's worth asking the artists politely though! I sent an email to C.C.P. Katharsis who did the makeup for a milktea ryuzo release and she accepted my order. A lot of artists seem to close international orders because they have poor experiences with customers but by complimenting their work and showing my willingness to work with them I've had some good results!

 

wow, your experience is so amazing. I used to send heads to local artists for easy communication. this is a new window for me to explore more

 

Wanted to chime in and second this! I asked one of the Switch artists nicely too a while back (Bron) and they accepted my request as well! Totally worth asking

 

I also won a Yido Inferno although I'd really like to get a body I wanted to ask if anyone else thinks they'll release the 64cm body in Mocha Brown? I'm not sure if I should just go for the 65 body while I still can lol

 

HD64 is the new girl body, right?
switch never release girls in mocha brown.
maybe better to get a boy body together

 

You basically "pay" 500usd upfront for a voucher or points equivalent of 550usd (1pt = 1usd) which can be used any time after the initial purchase period! From what I've checked with switch, the points don't have an expiry date, and you can use it for multiple purchases assuming you still have a remaining amount of points left over after each purchase. Just gotta make sure you redeem it at the check-out stage of your purchase!

Might honestly be a good idea to grab that and wait for mocha body sales since you basically do get a 50$ discount!

 

Thank you!! I ended up purchasing it to use towards this purchase for the Concerto stuff for the body. Especially because shipping for a full doll is almost $100 now So it'll be nice to have the $50 off! Very nice of them to offer this.

 

Now looking at their past releases this does seem to be the case I wanted to look forward to an androgynous body but I guess I will have to get the 65 instead! Thank you
