Crobidoll- Mini Discussion

[taixonay]

: D Thank you! I really was. I managed to get her during the second ordering period, which I honestly hadn't expected. I can't wait to see her face up once you send your girl out. I wasn't too fond of the heavy blushing myself, but the Heidi sculpt is really cute and very versatile. So I really can't wait to see what you have done with her. Really happy for you!!! Who do you plan on sending her out to?

Also just wanted to add that the hands that Crobidoll made for their newer C-line sculpts are much, much better. They're a bit on the "chunky" side but I think they fit the mold(s) very well. They're very expressive on their own and VERY fun to photograph.

Has Crobi mentioned anything about selling these guys' bodies separately in the future? I've got a floating head that I'd love to stick on one. * v*

[taixonay]

I don't think they have. You might have some luck asking Crobidoll if you can buy a body separately on their Q&A though.

I'd like to bring up that Crobi bodies aren't exactly the best posers. My girl was able to stand on her own the first day I got her. The next day I had to tilt her torso a bit forward in order to stand, and less than a week after that she couldn't stand on her own at all. I think she might need some re-stringing but I don't know how to do that at all.

[Bellforge]

Aa, yeah it could probably just use a re-stringing (or even wiring if it's really bad?). It's not that hard, and there's quite a few tutorials floating around. :>

Crobidolls joints are just really appealing, in my opinion, compaired to a lot of other bodies I've seen. Which is the main reason I was looking into their bodies above most others.

[taixonay]

Oh don't get me wrong the joints look good and the actual body (+ hands and feet) has a very cute look. In fact the Crobidoll body is the best looking body I've had. And actually my Marisol can touch her face so I love her arms.

I'm just very hesitant to re-string any of my dolls because I wasn't able to put a previous doll back together no matter how hard I tried. So I may actually need to learn from someone else in person. DX

[Bellforge]

For anyone else that may have been interested in the body alone, this is the response I got back from Crobi:

Hello
This is Crobidoll (:

We dont have any specific plan for C-line body seperatly ):

If there are any other questions, ask them on the board or e-mail please (:
Thank you for your big love

Always hoping your happy days..

Best regaurds,
Crobidoll

Here's Rini (C-line Heidi) with her stuffed animal bunny. ^___^

[taixonay]

WOAH, Crobi just released limited edition Camille and Heidi for their new theme!

Anybody interested in these cuties? It looks like they're an "ice grey" color. Sounds interesting.

[Kurin]

Heya~ Sorry for the old thread bumping! Dx Could someone please measure the waist of a Crobi C girl? The website doesn't say :p

I'm really excited about this! What do you guys think?

[babyelf]

Ah no! I had my hopes on a release in white skin . I begged Crobidoll so many times. Don't get me wrong, they are both awesomely beautiful, but...

I would only get another WS doll from Crobi if they were NOT in "sherbet white" which I think is part French resin and has yellowed HORRIBLY. I am the slightly disappointed owner of a Marie and I lover but I'm annoyed and sorry I didn't get Marisol, and annoyed because Marie is unsellable.

[taixonay]

Have you contacted Crobidoll about that? I don't really see a lot of Marie's around so I'd never heard anything about it.

Is it really bad?

[babyelf]

Chehime - Wow, I had no idea about this! I always thought that Marie looks quite translucent as is always the case with french resin, but I thought it was just standard resin. This is really sad! Marie is such a lovely doll.

*edit*
Crobidoll just told me that they do not have plans to release Marie in Sherbet White again. No wonder O_o.

[captainkyo]

Omg im so happy to hear about this.
Marisol is one i really wanted but she was already sold out when i found her.

[AmoraSeth]

AH! They are so cute! I broke down and got her this morning

I'm not surprised.I wish they'd just put her out in regular white to begin with

I wish I had the money, I might totally try for a Marisol if I could! But it's going to be hard! I recommend to everyone who wants one you wake up before they go on sale Korean time (no matter what time it is where you live) and be ready for a click war.

And good luck to you all!! Maybe someday I'll snag one off these girls second hand

[AmoraSeth]

Does anyone have any experience with Crobidoll tan resin? Is the tan only a surface color or is it mixed through with the resin?

[taixonay]

I have Marisol and I think the color's mixed through. I haven't seen anything to suggest otherwise, though.

[AmoraSeth]

@taixonay - Thank you! Have you tried sanding the seams? I always heard mixed feelings on sanding a tan doll...
