The doll arrived in a sturdy cardboard box. It was delivered by UPS and arrived in good condition with no damage.

After removing these, at last the doll was visible, wrapped thoroughly in protective plastic wrap covering, along with her accessories.

When I removed the doll, she felt sturdy. She’s a little heavier than my previous 100cm dolls but still quite easy to move.

Unwrapping was fairly easy, though I had yo be careful with my scissors - silicone does cut and scratch easily. When unwrapped, the doll appeared as follows.

I was pleasantly surprised to find she was wearing socks! Cute.

The head attachment is easy - push down and the head locks into place.

She also appears to have an adjustable mouth and a tongue. I’ll report back when I’ve played with her a but more.

The doll has both permanent nipple pigmentation and textured skin. I’m not sure this picture does it justice but it looks really nice.

I put on a necklace and dressed her. And of course she wanted to take a couple of quick snaps to show off.

I can’t wait to do a formal session with her but I think she’s really adorable. Gorgeous sculpt and she actually looks much better in person than in the promo photos.

Isn’t she cute?!

I find the smaller dolls intriguing, maybe some day. She would be at the top of my list, just beautiful

I find it interesting how they're packed. Every doll seems to be packed differently. My doll had the blanket, but not all the wrapping around her. Also one eye had popped out, and the eye covering protector foam had ripped, but I reckon that was Customs! The box was heavily wrapped by Border Tape.

Yes, the Elfies are gorgeous dolls - really pleased I bought her. And yes, packing does seem to be…inconsistent. One other thing I noticed and forgot to include was that the box top end (where her head is) wasn’t clearly marked and at some point it was obviously upside-down. Fortunately no damage, but having a clear ‘This End Up’ marking would be nice.

I’m still thinking on a proper ‘Elven’ name that suits her.

Yes, she is. And the photos don’t do her justice - she’s actually MUCH more gorgeous in person. The small dolls are great. I especially like the 100cm size. I think my Elfie’s probably the biggest I’d want at thus point - the larger dolls are just too heavy for my preferences. The only drawback is clothes. Because of their proportions, clothes are very hit-and-miss, sadly.

My photography light set isn’t here yet, but Araseli (she liked the name, so it’s hers now) and I did a quickie session under lamplight anyway so she could try on some of her wardrobe.

I think she looks lovely, personally. Here are a few photos for your enjoyment.

Thank you. I wholeheartedly concur - she is absolutely gorgeous. The dress was custom-made by an Etsy vendor who sadly seems to have retired. It’s possibly my favorite too so I was ecstatic to find that it fit Araseli, as it was made for a 100cm doll.

Here are some snaps we did with one of her other dresses. Enjoy!

Here are a few shots from a recent photo session. I’m not super-happy with the lighting I used but the results aren’t too bad. Enjoy!

small_doll_fan: Kudos for the unboxing report of your new 118cm doll. I know that this letter is very bumpy here, I translate it with Google.
Although I'm not a fan of elf heads, I think your doll is very cute.
There are a few things I would like to know: I assumed that the 118cm dolls have a head that cannot be pulled off, but you put the head on your doll. Is this a development that escaped me or is it an open secret?
I find it very... interesting that your doll has a tongue that stays between its lips. What's more, the fact that the mouth remains slightly open, that you can see her teeth, is a real eye-catcher. Can you move your jaw, i.e. also close your lips and open them slightly for the photo sessions?
The pictures from the official Sanhui site do not give any indication of these things.

Thank you - I am glad you enjoyed it. I think she’s super-cute and I really like her.

To answer your questions, Sanhui makes two 118 cm Elfie dolls.

For your other question, the mouth is slightly adjustable for opening. The tongue also is adjustable and removable. I’ll see if I can get a few photos in our next session for you.
