baldylox Posted October 1, 2017 Since March of this year, I've been wanting a Moonlight Smartdoll. I saw her in the Mirai store in Gotanda and instantly fell in love. Her skin tone, her eyes, her wig, all of it was awesome. Fast forward to about 3 weeks ago when I got an email from Danny stating that the cocoa skin tone was going to be replaced with another version. The time frame wasn't clear, all he said was that he only had a few of her left in stock and once she was gone, there would be no more. My buddy Ed was going to be in Japan the following week but I got scared that he wouldn't be able to grab her for me when he arrived so I went ahead and ordered her online. And it was a good thing I did too because 2 days later I heard that Moonlight was sold out both in store and online. >_< So I got extremely lucky and got the girl I wanted in the color I loved. She arrived on September 18th but I wasn't able to really get any good photos of her until now. I also ordered the XXL Kai bust for her and bought a regular L-bust off Facebook but I haven't tried either on her yet. So these pics are of her with the default bust..... which I still like.

I just need to figure out what her name is. Billy I gave up counting the girls I own, they keep multiplying and won't stop. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrFjmg03 Posted October 2, 2017 CONGRATS!!! She is stunning. Everything about her is perfect. The eyes, the hair and the skin color . I'm so happy you were able to get her in the color you wanted her. I know how it feels and it feels so awesome right? Her facesculpt reminds me a lot of DDdy Haruka Niimi. Her mouth, chin, and nose are very similar but her eyes are smaller. She just have such a sweet expression. I hope to see more of her and I hope she give you her name soon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
battrastard Posted October 3, 2017 Billy, I have to say that the change in her skin tone from sunlight to shadows are just absolutely stunning!!! You've got a real winner there, for sure...... To quote MrFjmg03: "Haruka Niimi"... maybe Nii-chan? Either way, she's a real beauty, congrats on such a cutie!! "Madness takes it's toll, Please have exact change!"

She just wouldn't be Moonlight if she was a different color. You will definitely see more of her once I get time off work and some good weather!

To quote MrFjmg03: "Haruka Niimi"... maybe Nii-chan? Either way, she's a real beauty, congrats on such a cutie!! Thank you sir! I wasn't ready for how these pics turned out but I could tell while taking them that her color changes depending on the light. It's a really neat thing to see. I'm still not sure about her name yet but we'll see. Sun light really brings out the best in the cocoa V1 skin. Congrats on inviting one of the last V1s home! Doesn't it? I was amazed with how it does that. Now I need to take her out to the beach in a white bikini! And thank you very much, I was super happy about getting her as she is..... her being one of the last ones available just makes her even more special to me.

TheWhiteRabbit Posted October 9, 2017 Congrats! I'm glad you were able to snag one of the final OG Moonlights. She is really lovely, and her skin + hair + eyes give her an almost ethereal feel that I feel the new skin tone will lack. that outfit is super cute to boot!

Maridah Posted October 24, 2017 Oh man I missed out on Moonlight because of my wedding/honeymoon expenses, so I'm very sad she's not going to be offered in this tone anymore. She's the prettiest Smartdoll so far IMO. Her eyes, skin tone, and blush just look so nice together Glad to see you got one of the last ones! ♔ http://www.BJDAtelier.com/ Clothes for DD & BJDs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am with you on her having an ethereal feel and look to her with this skin. I think that's the main reason I find her so special.

I loved the pics you had up online from Scotland, they were awesome. And thank you very much about Moonlight! Nice photoshoot, she looks so nice! I really prefer this skin tone to the new one... i dunno what hes thinking Thank you sir! I agree, I'm not sold on the new skin tone at all. I know what he's going for but to me, it would have been a better idea to have kept the original tone and added a new one alongside it..... not replace it altogether. But I understand the whole price/profit/storage/inventory struggle. Billy I gave up counting the girls I own, they keep multiplying and won't stop. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
