I'm an introvert and generally don't like posting short messages of contentless muttering, but the rules are I need 5 approved posts - So I guess, the best option is to just introduce myself!
I'm Xalcon and I'm from northern germany. I've been lurking this forum for... WHAT? OVER 7 YEARS WITHOUT A POST?... yeah, that sounds like me.
Around 2 years ago I noticed a new vendor popping up in the Doll Vendors section and they had some nice deals going on, so I couldn't say no. That's when I put down an order for not just one doll - but two!
A few weeks later, Eiko (WM 173H w/ #233 Head, White skin) and Melody (SEDoll 150 Elf, Princess Samantha?) arrived. Unfortunately, Melody suffered some major and unrepairable damage from prolonged unintended sunbathing last year - but Eiko is still as good as on day one! .. as long as we ignore the lose foot and the fading colors on the lips and nips.
Now, I feel like it's a bit lonely with "just" one doll and I just got a major raise, so it looks like Eiko is getting a new friend... or two
Just need to figure out a more permanent way to "store" them safely without getting sunburned again. The couch is definitely not working at the moment I really like elf girls with long ears. Anyone here who owns a WM #355 or a JY "Evelynn" (sometimes also called head #79, but different vendors show different heads for hat number)?
I'd like to see some actual photos of them in the wild rather than those staged shots with major photoshopps. I've used the search (and didn't dig very deep so far,) but the only thing I seem to find are either factory shots of small-ish dolls (<150cm) or marketplace posts - not very encouraging.
Anyway. Took me way to long to write this, so I'll just stop here for now
There are some great folks on here that are very good at repairs and they may be able to help you. It's good to hear that Eiko is well and still going strong. You will need to keep them out of the sun. Can you just keep the blinds closed
