Quest 19: Welcome Home Astraeus and Boreas!

Hello everyone I'm back. Sorry for the long wait and not really anymore word. Everything in my life went haywire.. My Grandma, my Dad, and me got sick. Things were crazy. @_@ Well, on a better note my Dollzone, yellow skinned Brant and Dollzone, pink skinned Lankui were shipped on the 25th and they came home yesterday on the 28th. Astraeus (Brant) is so handsome!! He looks even better than he did in the photos! >3< And Boreas (Lankui) Is absolutely adorable. ::Flails:: Eos is very happy to have her hubby and son home. Buuut.. I don't think Rhiannon is too happy about her new brother in law... But she LOVES her little nephew. Hee Hee! Who wouldn't love a face like that.. Any who, here is the box opening. I hope you like it!


The Box:























Astraeus' Clothes. He looks so handsome in his full set outfit but the other I bought for him is kind of tight and too short.. So I'm gonna give it to my friend who has ordered her boy not to long ago. ^3^























Mummy Astraeus.. He's so big! Wo Eos your gonna have your hands full! O3O























Here he is in his naked glory! Funny thing is he really had no problem being naked in front of the camera.. He was more kicky when I put cloths on him... ::Face palm:: O3O























Beautiful hands!! ::flails::























His beautiful face. I love his eyes!!























A few smexy picks of my gorgeous man! ^3^


















































Astraeus and Eos have some quality time together! So jealous... ^3^






























Opening of Boreas. (Pink skin Lankui) Our bouncing baby boy! ^3^ Sorry its not a full opening I had already opened and dressed little Boreas while I was in the hospital with my Dad...























The Family portrait.. So CUTE!! ^3^























Again sorry for the late post and sorry if I really didn't give you a lot of heads up about these two.. Hope you like the latest additions to the family. This will probably be it for buying more dolly's for a bit. Will be broke for a bit.. But I will be posting more photos, news on clothing for my lovely's, and possibly written and photo stories. Please look forward to more and have a great day! Byeeeeeeeeeeeeee's!! ^3^

Quest 18: Welcome Home Eos!

Sorry I haven't updated in a while. Rhiannon and I went on our first dolly meet. It was awesome. My friend Lisa was able to come and she is now wanting to get her own dolly. Also on 01/21/12 I got an email that Eos (DZ Clovera) was shipped. Yaaaay! Then after work, yesterday 01/24/12, I called my mom and she asked me to guess what just came in the mail. I didn't think it was Eos because there was no way she came in that quick. So I thought and thought and asked, "Taxes?" My Mom laughed and hinted,"It was delivered by UPS..." I then freaked out and spun in circles outside my work. Hah Hah! So many people were staring. But I didn't care I was ecstatic! So I drove home and opened the box and took pictures. Here is the Box Opening. Enjoy and please excuse my bad photo skills I need a new camera...


The boxy box!!























I'm home! ^3^























All of the Goodies! (Book, DDE Card, Eos's Papers, Wigs, Clothes)












































































Pillow!! So soft..






















Dolly mummy..






















Nakedness.. O_O






















Such pretty hands!






















Her beautiful face! I'm so impressed with Dollzone's face-ups.





























OMG she stands! Something Rhiannon has trouble doing with out her boots.




























Eos finished! Woot!! I'll make sure to post more pictures soon..





























Until next time! Byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee's!!! <3

Quest 17: News, Names, and Dolly Stuff

At last I can wipes my tears away and cheer for I am a very proud lady! I have restrung Rhiannon! Woot!! ::Dramatic music plays:: Now how did I do this you ask? Well with a wire hanger, long nosed pliers, my not so strong arm, and my pure tenacity; I did it! I don't know if I strung her tight enough. I do know she's strung tighter than she was when she arrived. I was told she was strung loosely so yeaaaaah... She poses A LOT better now. XD Rhiannon is able to venture out of her body bag once again. We are both very happy. ^_^

On other news, I know what I'm going to name my new dolly. Her name is going to be Eos! Yes Eos is the name of the Goddess of the dawn (Evening Star), but she is also an original character of mine. I'm slowly working on it and maybe I'll post parts of it some day.. >_> All I'm really gonna need are her wings, Gold eyes, and possibly to make an outfit.

::Heaves a heavy sigh:: I also was kinda bad as of late... V_V I kind of went on a shopping spree because I got a little depressed. I got a few-a lot of dolly stuff. O_o A LOT of dolly stuff... ::Cringes:: I need a hug. T_T ::Clears throat:: The website I made REALLY happy was CoolCat. They are a great sight if you want to buy wigs, clothes, eyes, bags, and such for your dolls. What's great is they have stuff for BJD's, Volks DD's, Blythes, and Pullips. Anyway I first planned on getting the Nylon Carrying Bag, Face Guard, Eye Putty, Wig Fix Stick, and a wig brush. Then I saw the clothes and accessories. I got two pares of lace underwear for Rhiannon and Eos. I bought a really pretty Pink outfit made by Dandelion (shirt, leggings, skirt). And I got the Pink/White Lolita shoes that matched. I thinks that's all I bought... But I'm currently trying to drag myself away from a pair of jeans and really expensive gold glass eyes that I found. Oy its so painful, Help Meh!! @_@ Now what really sucks is I'm already thinking of buying a boy from Dollzone. Again Nooooo I can't! At least right now.. >:3 Hee Hee! When my new stuffies arrive I'll post a review on CoolCat. So I hope you look forward to that. I know I am. ^_^ Until then byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee's!! >w<

Quest 16: Sad News And New Addition...

Hello everyone, guess what I'm finally back! Yaaay! >w< But with sad news... On the morning of AFO I was getting ready to dress Rhiannon for her first fun filled day, but it started off with disaster. When I picked her up out of her cushions her stringing came loose and her arms and legs fell. I was soo sad.. The bad thing is I don't know how to restring her. Apparently restringing a Bobobie is different from the rest. I have seen some tutorials on YouTube, but I'm terrified of messing her up. Also, I don't have all of the tools I need. >_> I will be working on restringing Rhiannon soon hopefully.

On a more positive note there is going to be a new addition to the dolly family. Haven't thought up a name yet. I just ordered her from Denver Doll Emporium. She is the Clovera 58cm girl from DollZone. I got the full set with has a lacy blue and white Lolita type dress with a small flower headdress. The shoes are soo pretty!! The set comes with a blond wig but I bought an extra pink wig. I know it sounds strange but I think it'll be cute. The pink wig will bring out the pink in the face up. A little extra I'm getting is a book, "Ball Jointed Dolls for Beginners". I really want a carrying bag but I can't afford it at the moment, and they don't have it in stock at the moment. I do have to say that every time I've bought from DDE I've had a wonderful experience. Their always very nice and helpful. So I whole heartily recommend Denver Doll Emporium.

Lately I've been watching Alysonsfriend's YouTube channel I Don't Do Subtle! It's really good I'm sad I've missed a year's worth of updates.. I've been away from the computer for a while.. I'll try to continue to update more often. I hope to write to you all soon. Byeeeeeeeeeeeeeee's!!

Quest 15: Rhiannon's New Look!

I have a few developments to report on. Rhiannon has a new look. The pictures are added below. I hope you like it, she definitely does!



























Also, Rhiannon went to her first anime convention, AFO. She got so many compliments. She's a little embarrassed, because Rhiannon isn't used to all of the people doting on her.















Here's also a little photo story I thought up. Rhiannon has been meeting all of the other dolls I have around my room. I love porcelain dolls. I have around five or six porcelain dolls plus a My Twin Doll. I hope you enjoy!

"Who are you?"


























"Am I really that short!?"

























"I'm the shortest doll in this room!" ::Pouts::


























::Pat::


























"Hmmm?"


























::Sniffs:: "T-thank you..."


























"Let's be friends."

Quest 14: New Developments. Yay!

Well, I guess I'm kinda useless... T_T I've came up with her name and it's not even the one everyone voted for. I'm so sorry. I'm going to name her Rhiannon. I think it's such a pretty name! My mom was going to actually name me Rhiannon. I had such a hard time figuring out the perfect name for her, because I'm writing a story about her character. I couldn't figure out a name for her to save my life! Hah hah! Soon I may post some of it on this blog! Just have to finish at least a chapter or two...

Anywho, I'm making a new dress for her. I'm kind of worried about keeping the purple dress on her for too long for fear of staining the resin. But, I don't want her to go naked... O_O I have the fabric and everything. I just have to make the pattern, cut it out, and sew it. It's going to be white with baby blue polka dots. I also have the cutest little bows. They are white with baby blue stripes! Oh, and don't forget the lace! I'll get working on it soon and post pictures. Until then, don't just display your dollies... Play with them!

Quest 13: She's Here!

Sorry, I guess I'm a little late on posting. She actually arrived two day's after she was shipped! I'm very impressed. She arrived at my Grandma's house Saturday. She looks so pretty in her new clothes and with her face up. I thank Bobobie so much for such a beautiful girl! Here are some pictures of the box opening and of her in her clothes. Enjoy! :3

The wondrous box:



















Opened the box:


















Look Shoes:


















I can see you:



















The very first close up:




















Cover your shame man:































My girl finished Yay!:































Close Up:




























She's so pretty. Thank you Bobobie!:

Quest 12: On Her Way!

Guess what everyone. She's been SHIPPED!!! Yay!!! I cannot wait. She should arrive in three to four day. They gave me the tracking number and I think I'll be staring at it everyday! I'll keep you updated.

Quest 11: Soon, Very Soon...

I emailed Bobobie the other day to ask a few questions about my order. I have some information... My girl should be shipped in about twenty days! So, from the time I got the email It should be shipped on April 18, 2010. Yeah I know I'm kinda late. I'm so excited! X3

I may buy a carrying bag for my girl from Denver Doll. There may have to be some saving involved... ^_^; I'm a little worried about dropping or breaking her when I go places.

Currently, I am pondering some names for her. I like them all and I'm having trouble choosing... I'm also working on a story that has a character that she's based on. I'll go ahead and list them with there meanings. I'll try to post it sometime. Let me know which name you like the best PLEASE! ^_^

Alura - god like, adviser
Anona - guardian
Raina - ruler, queenly, guardian
Asima - guardian
Vesta - guardian
Valeska - glorious ruler

Quest 10: Epic Email!

Oh my goodness I'm so excited! I just got and email back from Bobobie saying that they got my payment and my doll is in preparation now. Guess what else? Guess... Ok, my doll will most likely be sent to me in a month! Woot woot! I cannot wait to see her, and what really surprises me is that my Mom can't wait either! What a shocker! I showed her the wig and the clothes that came in the other day. She couldn't stop asking me questions and she kept wanting to see what the doll looks like. I don't think she actually realized the epicness that is bjd!

Any way's, in the meantime I'm working on finding an name for her. I also have a story in the makings. I might even have a reason to get a boy in a later date... I'm thinking of getting an Apollo! So cute! X3 So when I have more news I'll post again. Until then...

Quest 9: First Package Arrived!

Guess what? My first package arrived. It was the order from Denver Doll Emporium! Not the doll quite yet, but at least its the clothes and wig. I even got my wig cap. So now I'm just waiting on my doll and her shoes. But, that will be for a while... Again, I hate waiting!

Anywho, here are some pictures of my opening the package that just arrived:

The Box:






















The Wig:





























The Dress:

Quest 8: Bought My Doll ^_^

I'm so darn excited! Bobobie emailed me back. They gave me the total price of my order, and their PayPal account. So I was able to send them the money. I also found some very interesting sites. I found a site that's suppose to be an online bjd magazine. It's called BJD Collectasy.

Now that all this is done the next thing I need to do is wait for Bobobie to email me. They'll email me back back with my order number so I can check the status of my order. It'll take a little while until they ship my order. My doll has to be pained. There's probably a few orders before mine... See you soon! ^_^

Here are the urls to the doll and other things I bought with her:
1/3 Girl Elena
60cm doll shoe-01
Custom FaceUp (I drew a picture of what I want.)

Quest 7: Clothes Purchased and Shipped!!

Today I was able to put some of my money to good use while waiting for Bobobie to email me back. I went on a shopping spree for my girl on Denver Doll Emporium. I purchased one of the outfits that I wanted. I purchased a pretty blue wig and a wig cap. It all came to $112. Then I looked at the Gallery on the Bobobie forum. All of the beautiful bjd's just made me more excited and anxious. I know I should be patient but its so difficult!! I'm not use to ordering stuff online... Help me!!!

Here are the pictures of the items I bought:
Purple Haze Outfit
Whisper Blue - LR-038 Lacey Wig - From LeekeWorld
Wig Cap

Quest 6: The First Step

The first step of purchasing my first BJD has begun. My tax money has arrived. I've created myself a PayPal account, and I have emailed Bobobie about my order. I'm mostly emailing them because I'm getting a custom FaceUp. The picture of how I want my FaceUp is back in the Quest #2 post. So now I get to wait some more. I guess waiting is just part of it all... ^_^;

Quest 5: Awsome BJD!

You'd never believe what I've found! I didn't think is was possible but someone has a bjd that can Dance! Yeah you read that correctly... Dancing Doll-san brought in Alice, his dancing bjd to Dolpa(a bjd convention). I wish I could buy one but I'm sure it's out of my price range... At least for now. Alice is made up from 25 servo motors and a Viston processing unit. Battery is a 6.0v+4.8v. She also comes with 2 gyro and 3 accelerator sensors. As for my my quest for getting my bjd girl... I found out that I should be getting my money for her next Friday!! I'm soo happy!
Here is a link to see Alice dance!

Quest 4: Waiting...

Well, all I’m doing right now is waiting… Waiting for my money from the taxes to come in. Good lord I hate waiting! I’m so impatient! It should get here some time within the next week. Until then…

Quest 3: New Findings!

Not too much to report today. I’ve been surfing the internet, searching for what clothes I would like to have for my girl. I found two outfits I would absolutely love! I found a two piece set with a black and white striped bunny hoodie with a black short skirt. Then I saw a blue and purple Lolita-like dress! Soo pretty!!!!!
Also, as I was on my search, I came across these little miniatures that look like tea sets, desserts, dinners, etc. They even had furniture, but they don’t fit SD sized dolls…
I’ve included the urls for the clothes I liked. Feel free to look.

Blue & Purple Lolita Dress (I badly want this)
Black Kimono
Ivory Kimono
Black & White Striped Bunny Hoodie (I want this too)
Purple & Black Dress
Black Dress

(Oh yeah, the image above is the logo I designed for Resin Beauty!)

Quest 2: Solutions! :3

I said I would have some kind of solution, and I do! Well, for part of it… Today I went to get my taxes and guess what? In the next month or two I’ll have enough money for my bjd. Yay’s! As for face up I’ve drawn a picture of what I want. The picture is located on the top left. I hope you like! :3
I think I’ve found two wigs I’d like to have. ( Bluebell wig, Whisper Blue Mitzi) Not sure which one yet… Clothes, arg, I can’t find what I’d really like to have. The one I would love to have wouldn’t fit my girl. ::cries:: I guess I’ll have to worry about that when I’m able to by her. The clothes seem to like to sell out quickly. So I guess its best not to get my heart set on one thing. You know… Any ways, I’ll let you know how things go. Bye bye!

Quest 1: Some Things I Need

On Bobobie I signed onto their forum and asked some questions. I told them that I want a certain doll. I wanted to know where I could find wigs and clothes for her. They gave me the url for Denver Doll and The Junky Spot. Wow, good quality and nicely priced! As for my wanting violet eyes, the doll includes a pair of random eyes! I’m so excited! Someone kind of gave me the idea on how to change the eyes too.
What I’m mostly worried about is the face up. So, I guess I need to design how I want the face up to look and send it to the company. I wouldn’t mind paying a little more for what I want!
The next thing I need to worry about are the cloths, face up, a name, a wig, and most importantly MONEY to get it all with. I’ll get back to all of you soon hopefully with my solutions and some more picks! :3

How The Quest Began

The very first time I saw a Super Dollfie I fell in love… I believe it was at Megacon. There was a group of girls sitting around a table having tea. I remember they were all dressed in Lolita dresses, and there amongst all of the little desserts and teacups, were the most amazing dolls. I’ve always loved dolls. I have about seven porcelain dolls, five resin Final Fantasy figures, one resin My Twin doll, and about fifty Barbies. So yeah, I have a lot of dolls, but nothing like these! They; were rather large, about two feet tall. They had many joints so, their positioning abilities were phenomenal. What really go my attention were their faces. They had very anime-like features, and I LOVE anime. The paint on their faces was so pretty. I loved how they had glossy lips. So cute!
I just had to ask what they were. They said they were Super Dollfies, or BJD’s (Ball Jointed Dolls). They even gave me their doll’s names. They freaking had names! I found out that even their eyes and wigs can be changed. Oh, the possibilities!
I had to have one. I knew I had to be one of those girls drinking tea and showing off their precious Dollfie! So, when I got home, I went online and found “Volks” the great god of all Super Dollfies. I was in heaven! There were so many BJD’s. I found clothes, shoes, wigs, eyes, face up, and even shoes! Then I had to look for the price… “Holy Crap, Look at all of those zeros!” At least that was just yen… But, even when converted the price still came out to the unholy $800! So, sadly I had to give up on my dream… For Now!
Later on, after dreaming of getting my hands on one of these beauties, I found it, the wonderful site that is Bobobie Doll Mall. Get this, Bobobie sells beautiful 60 cm BJD’s for $170! I thought I’d faint. My dream was much closer than before. Then a few months later I got my taxes done and it looks like I get to get my first BJD in about two months. The little bugger's mine! So, from here on you get to follow me on my quest to get my very first BJD.
(The Image is not something I did. I believe its property of Volks.)
