Jan 2016: DS 145- with two heads

kabuki · Post by **kabuki** » Wed Feb 03, 2016 7:34 pm

Hey edyedy, nothing much new to report, besides about an hour after the videos were all done, I haven't been able to take her out and spend time with her. So much for the honeymoon period! DS warns that the eye sockets are extremely delicate. Did you do repairs? Man, this silicone is soft.

If I ever do get around to replacing the eye mechanisms, I will definitely do an in-depth video of the process. Hope to get a few hours to myself and the dolls this weekend before we have guests over... the guestroom is the dollroom when unoccupied, and when guests are sleeping over we have the dolls stored up in the attic. Musical chairs!

Sounds like a project to me, to get the attic converted into a girl's room!

Joking aside, I have a finished attic myself that I'm thinking of turning into Jiho's room.

I went back and sorted her eye out...I had left it kind of bulging, for want of a better description, when I posted my last message. At the back of the socket there is a square recess. The eye itself, as you'll know from your extra set, has a square projection. When inserting the new eye, make sure you have the projection and recess lined up, or else the eye will bulge and you'll be fiddling around with it to get it adjusted...you'll want to spend as little time as possible getting that eye into position, to limit any chance of damaging the socket.

Here are a couple of photos of the damage to mine.

Warning for those who are squeamish about eye balls.

Damage to the eye socket (note that I'm pulling the eye open with my fingers)

Fortunately not too evident when the eye is relaxed (i.e. not pulling it open with my fingers) but I need to repair this incase it gets worse.

Thanks for posting those pics. I am going to wait as long as possible to switch the eyes over. Brown on the Saki head and blue on Fei looks awesome, so there's no rush to switch it up.

I have found time for a few intimate sessions with the doll since last posting, and I found that using one of my onaholes from Magic Eyes or Toysheart works better than the insert it came with, by a LOT. A stand-alone onahole just has more structure, and anyone who's seen my video on the insert or held one for yourself, you know how floppy it is due to the extreme softness of the material. The DS insert is ribbed inside, but I can't feel much of it. The TPE onaholes are thicker and fit more snugly into the doll's "port." Switching from a doll that has a built-in to the insert, this just feels more integrated and I don't see the gaps between the insert and the port's inner walls when I spread the legs open. Upon removing the onahole, the silicone port is a bit stretched, however it seems to be an accommodating organ (just like the real thing!) and reverts back to normal after a few hours.

Also happy to report that the stain on the knee did disappear almost completely, and I can't even tell it's there anymore. Quite pleased so far. Will report back with pictures, when I have time for a photoshoot!

Good to hear about that stain disappearing.

What specific Magic Eyes or Toysheart onaholes did you try?

I've seen worse damage, but yes, I agree with repairing it before it gets worse.

Thanks for the post, great info. I just ordered my 145cm with the Fei and Li heads, via email, also go John as a rep so I guess I'm in good hands. Now its just sit and wait!

Exciting stuff Drifter.

Have you started a thread? I also have a thread on my own experience.

No not yet, sorting out what I need to do by reading everyone's threads, but I did plan on posting pics. I'm a armature photographer, so mt doll is as much for that then anything else.

This video is specifically for DS dolls, but you might be able to adapt this 5 minute project to your needs.

Standard eyebolt ring is M6 (6mm / 0.24") and supports 140lbs. Search ebay for "M6 Eye Bolt" and you can find one for cheap there. This screws into the neck rod of the doll.

The mounting hook can be pretty much anything you have around, I chose one that has a weight capacity of 70lbs, which should cover the majority of dolls out there.

Total cost: under $10

The Nipple, is it default colour? Or this u ask for darker nipple?

Because I see from website, the nipple is light pink .

Thanks Kabuki for this great video-clip. The seams are clearly visible. TO visible in my opinion..... is your dolls skin from 2016 or still from 2015?
