Original post by Starfighter:

Hello fellow SDCute Arashi owners^^

I just won SDCute Arashi from Y!J (yay!) and was wondering if you could tell me some things you love about him!^^
I'm so excited to get him here but he's gonna be a little while, so I wanted to hear some different things owners of him think and get more of a perspective about Arashi and what he's like.
Both Likes and Dislikes (positive and negative feedback) are appeciated.

Please also post pics of your cute guys!

Thanks for your help^-^

I got my Arashi a few weeks ago - and lent him to a friend to photograph for a magazine (I hope he's home soon).

Mine also arrived very loosely strung, it was so bad that he couldn't stand up without support. I just pulled some of the excess string from his torso and made an extra knot - he's much better now. For his photo shoot, I had him sitting in the lotus position playing an electric guitar - just too much. You will love the way he poses. Plus he has an extra 'cap' over his should joints (like CP/Luts dolls) so the joint at the top of the arm is hidden. The wig is quite tight on his head. Luckily I had some of the Volks Velcroe around, and that just did the trick. As mentioned earlier, the black dye comes off of his jumpsuit (I may soak mine in salt water) - but it is sooo cute. He also wears 2 tee-shirts, one white and the other is gray mesh.
His face is marvelous, the eyes you have to see in person to truly appreciate the cobalt blue with black rim.
I went to the American Girl Store and picked him up a Hopscotch Hill 'soccer' outfit. It's has a pair of black/red sweatpaints that can be turned into shorts (which is how mine will have to wear them because of his longer legs).
I know that dressing him will be a challenge because of the legs and his head is also about 1/2 inch smaller than MSD boys, so even wigs will be too large - but he's so very charming, you'll adore him.
I'll be using apoxy sculpt to turn my boy into an elf. As soon as I get him back I'll post pics of him, before and then after.
Congrads on your!

I know a lot of people complain that finding pants for him is difficult, so I just thought I'd mention that pants that fit the DoD long-legged boys will fit him. Granted their aren't a lot of those around either, but if you come across one that you like, it will work. River wears the outfit from a DoD U and frankly I think it fits him better tha it fit U.

[VulpesPraedatum]

I did some comparissons, (Pics will upload once I have them!) and the SDC foot is just a touch smaller than the volks MSD foot. The SDC also would wear all of the shoes I have for my MSD. Now, I don't have any of the fancy name brand shoes, just some $5 or $10 doll shoes, so take that for what it's worth, but I would advise that any and all shoes made to fit the volks MSD sized feet will fit the SDC just fine. ^_^

Note Thanks to DOA member HouseOfIsis for providing the info for Arashi

From the Doll Measurements thread

[Fechan]

Does anybody know if CH Little Junior clothes will fit Arashi? They have some adorable punkish things on the site, but I wasn't sure of the size difference between Little Jr. and MSC. I know Junior will because that's MSD size.... how much smaller ARE the Littles??

Thanks.

Little Jr. are rather small. They are smaller than DOD dolls (see comparison thread~). And DOD is smaller than Arashi (I'm sorry I have no idea where I stole this picture from....I hope whoever it belongs to isn't offended ;-; Let me know if this image is yours and I'll give proper credit!)

Left SDC Arashi, right DOD

16. Foot length: 2 1/4 in

It might fit around him, but it'll definitly be on the short side. (if that makes sense to you ^^; )

[bakaRei]

Just out of curiosity, can Arashi pose in that same cute sitting position as the SDC girls?

[accidental_subjects]

Yes he can sit that way, and if I could take a photo of him right now looking at me as he is sitting that way, well, darn cute. Got his head tilted to one side...

As for DoD and Arashi, the difference is more in the size of the head and the leg length. Mikey went and visited with Tender Too the other day, and when they sat next to each other Mikey's shoulders were just about at the same height as Too's.

I got to get some photos on the net, geez. It would be easier than trying to describe these things.

[Fechan]

Yeah, my DOD and Arashi can share clothes. Only the pants are a bit short ^^;

ps: HouseOfIsis do you mind if I use some of the things you told me about Arashi on a FAQ I'm in the process of writting (of course I write your names beside the info that comes from you!!)?

[Lia]

Becky,

I found this list of Kurenai's measurements, and I *think* the only difference between Kaede's and Kurenai's measurements is that Kurenai's bust is smaller.

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong on that, as I only have Kaede:

Height: 16.5"
Eyes: 16 mm
Bust: 6.75"
Waist: 5.5"
Hip: 7.5"
Bicep: 2.5"
Elbow: 2.5"
Elbow flexed: 3"
Thigh: 4 3/8"
Knee: 3"
Knee flexed: 4.5"
Ankle 2.5"
Heel: 3.5" (around heel & front of foot with foot pointed)
Neck: 3.25"
Front shoulder width: 2 1/8"
Back shoulder width: 2 3/8"
Neck to bust point: 1 3/4"
Bust point to bust point: 1.5"
Neck to waist: 3.5
Back neck to floor: 14
Front neck to floor: 13.75
Waist to Floor: 11.5
Hip to Floor: 10
Inseam: 8.5
Girth: 13.25
Shoulder to Elbow: 2.5
Shoulder to Wrist: 4.75
Shoulder to Wrist, Bent: 5.375
Mid-back Neck to Wrist: 7
Wig: 7

[green_judy]

Arashi newsflash: He wears the new Matt O'Neill suits quite nicely! Still a trifle short in the arm and leg, but close to right, with a very slim, "mod" kind of fit...! I have learned this because Fontenrose has become a suit fanatic. (I thought he was going to be a super-girly, Fruits style boy, but NOO!)

Fontenrose: Bespoke tailoring please :grin:

Please forgive me if someone has posted about this before, but I just could not find it even with several different types of "search" parameters!

I have a Volks SDC question, perhaps only answerable by someone with access to both an SDC AND an MSD who can compare the dolls in person & try a basic "parts switch":

Do the "optional hand and foot parts" for MSD also fit SDC, in the same manner as SD optional parts fit SD13 girls very well? Because I would seriously love my Arashi to have optional "tabi feet". ^^

[krambear]

The MSDs have thicker feet than the SDCs.



I don't know if you can see from the picture, but the ball joints for MSD seem to be, um, fatter.

[Aerinha]

HI, this is my first post and I need help. I just got my first Volks doll, a MSDC Arashi and after an frustrating 1/2 hour I still can't get his wig on. Even if I manage to cram it around his head, it pops right off. No where in Haute Doll does it mention you need a physics degree to wig these dolls. I give. What's the trick to getting it on and keeping it on? It seems much too small for him. Did I get a dud? Other than that I LOVE him. Please help!!

[frzndaqiri]

Welcome!

http://www.denofangels.com/forums/vi...arashi+wig+fit

I've seen a few people having trouble with his wig, some resorted to velcro or rubberband to help hold it down, and one person (I think) snipped the sides just a smidge to give more room. You might want to try some other tactics first though!

:grin: I'm sure an Arashi owner will be along to help out a little more.

[Aerinha]

I'm glad I'm not the only one having a problem. I was considering snipping the elastic, but was afraid the hair would start to fall out (a few chunks already came out during my battle to get it on). I'll hold off on that and see is an Arashi owner has a less drastic idea. Thanks!

[oriscany]

Yup, Arashi's wig is tight, and a bit small.

I used moleskin to keep the wig on, and in place.
Moleskin is that stuff Dr. Scholl's makes.
Soft and spongy on one side and adhesive on the other. A small patch of that stuck on the doll's pate and all wigs stay on well.^^

[Sable]

I found that the only way to get River's wig on at all was to flip it inside out, place it near the proper possisstion and then slowly and carefully turn it right side out again over his head, this usually gets a more snug fit than just trying to strech it on to his head, but it sometimes takes a couple of tries.

Well, once I got River's wig on it tended to stay on pretty good, only popped off periodically if I was fooling with his head a lot (my biggest problem w/ it is that you can see the bottom of his wig cap through his bangs which just looks funny.

[Aerinha]

Are all Volk's wig such a tight fit? I own a Custom House Chamomile bjd and his wig just slides right on. Arashi is my first Volks product, but if everything is this hard, I may stick with another brand for future purchases even though I love his face.

Thanks for the advice to all who responded!

No, I don't believe they are all this hard My roommate has a Volks wig for her Hound that just slides on, and she has a Kaede who's default wigs don't giver her anything like the trouble I have w/ River.
