SkullBoy Posted April 2, 2022 67628__468x_lolita-custom-dollfies-001-rozen-maiden-shinku Does anyone know the origin of the custom shinku ? I feel like I've seen it on a video and in the description it said the doll was a custom bule fairy but the video is no longer online ? also I can't tell if she's resin on vinyl because there's only one picture.

battrastard Posted April 2, 2022 40 minutes ago, SkullBoy said: lolita-custom-dollfies Doing a google search of "lolita-custom-dollfies" gives quite a few pictures. They are over ten years old, though. I'm probably mistaken, but they both look pretty anime style, so, it's a toss-up between their being resin or DD-based. https://mettame17.wordpress.com/2011/11/15/dollfie-boneka-super-cantik/lolita-custom-dollfies-031-rozen-maiden-suigintou-2/ The main google page I found: https://www.google.com/search?rls=en&sxsrf=APq-WBvWZ78dRVrp1nSzMQJP9Px1yOvRyw:1648870187361&source=univ&tbm=isch&q=lolita-custom-dollfies&client=safari&fir=5mGtmu7mI2eHeM%2Cn8j5cDiejnDRVM%2C_%3Bj1Vua7du3MGLkM%2CZvaGfCIlYoqhJM%2C_%3BEtigWpVJNGMSqM%2CGRtO4Elq2EjH2M%2C_%3BK_haY92PEbO8pM%2CwMLZkwaGlviILM%2C_%3BghhhVkXcZ23A_M%2Ci1KhEysM6gXqSM%2C_%3BF7O7h1Dj3eMgNM%2C3lEjI7ik4JekQM%2C_%3BdJ2XUih68Nw6aM%2CO_Hgkz8V4bUEwM%2C_%3B44rTcwiI7BbVZM%2C3Rr608x5LpjEKM%2C_%3BZZfKvRp6B3azJM%2C3lEjI7ik4JekQM%2C_%3B1AeiIuQUYY7yvM%2C3Rr608x5LpjEKM%2C_&usg=AI4_-kSZJY7yBZYxirEmnknSlA8Hxhw5SA&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjBlrGOuPT2AhVULX0KHYY3AnEQ7Al6BAgCEE0&biw=1095&bih=890&dpr=1#imgrc=hptaU5VoDENE4M Good luck with your search, hope this helped a bit.... 1 "Madness takes it's toll, Please have exact change!"

Cotton Posted April 2, 2022 Based on the pictures shared by Battrastard, it looks like she could be from here: http://marumu.cute.coocan.jp/ (Shinku) If so, this Shinku would be a custom-made Super Dollfie, with the old F-13 option head (customised and carved), and a SD10 body with shortened legs! Hope this could help (*'▽') 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Anna-neko Posted April 2, 2022 I can't see what the Image original poster meant to put up.... but if the doll is old enough, its a much higher chance she'd be resin Original Volks release was a resin, and their own vinyl DDs weren't yet with a wide enough array of headmolds to easily make a custom chara like this 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebil Posted April 3, 2022 OP, we can’t see the photo you’re trying to show us, the though it looks like @battrastard gamely tried to narrow it down using the file name alone. It would be very helpful if you can show post the photo (or a link to it) so we have more to go off of than just a file name. Use “click to choose files” under the post and make sure your image is an accepted file format and under 10mb. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

finnleo Posted April 3, 2022 (edited) 1 hour ago, SkullBoy said: This is the photo Thats unfortunately not much to go on ... although... The case seems to be the Pullip case they made around when the Traümend anime was a thing. the green ribbons rule out "the" SD shinku, and also if the box is indeed the pullip one, it would be a MSD size'd doll (at MFC there's a picture of the SD Suiseiseki in one of those, and look a lot more Stuffed into it that what can be seen here) -- If I recall correct even volks had a sleeping MSD standard at one point, but could be wrong. back in the day YJA was rather well supplied with both MSD and SD sized rozen maiden outfits with varying success.

OccultBeast Posted April 3, 2022 (edited) She's a resin Super Dollfie (as far as I can tell, anyway), the original (reposted, the original webpage is defunct) images can be found here: http://www.sankakucomplex.com/2010/04/25/rozen-maiden-lolita-doll-gallery/ She might actually be MSD sized, but there's not much that I personally know in the photos to determine scale. There are photos of her mostly undressed, and you can see she's definitely an older style resin BJD. I'm not familiar enough with the SD sculpts, but I'm sure someone can identify her.

ebil Posted April 3, 2022 Interesting, the single image OP is specifically interested in is a different sculpt from the rest of the images. She has closed eyes. From that tiny photo I’m afraid it’s very hard to identify the sleeping head. Especially because the original owner’s page is gone. It’s even possible the owner simply used image editing to close her eyes for that one photo. The open eye Shinku in the rest of the image set is as @Cotton said — modded Volks old f13/Mimi.

Misuka Posted April 3, 2022 Looks like they used a sleeping head for the picture with her closed, for aesthetic purposes, rest is default Volks' Shinku for sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
