Dolliquent Posted January 27, 2023 I've been eyeing one of these for too long now and might just cave in like everyone else next time I get paid. >.< I hope the posing is just as good as I saw with some of their 1/6 ones. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know me and how I can get so jumpy at any new doll when I already have 2 on the way. Gotta slow down 😅 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aminadolls Posted February 1, 2023 I just ordered two tan Rubys from their Taobao shop for me and my friend! I’m excited while waiting for them to arrive, though the long waiting time always makes me nervous 😅 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0bsequi0us Posted February 2, 2023 (edited) This might not be viewable to everyone (weibo is weird) but imomodoll posted a posing video for the chubbier body! I admit I'm getting antsy waiting for them to ship... they said they would start shipping on 1/29 but I haven't seen anyone in China getting them yet 😩 Edited February 2, 2023 by 0bsequi0us Pixel art by @PlasticJester !

I was reading through the comments of that post the other day and it seems like they were more delayed than they expected. I'm seeing mid February thrown around now. Though there are multiple waves (advanced pre-sale, then Q1 Standard sale) so who knows when the later wave will appear. Pixel art by @PlasticJester !

Courtmom Posted February 4, 2023 Here’s a posing video of Miko, the other 1/4 https://share.api.weibo.cn/share/365225597,4864707557068439.html?weibo_id=4864707557068439 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chantelle Posted February 4, 2023 I finally caved and ended getting myself a tan Miko on the mimi body 😭 This was mainly because I saw a picture of a tan imomodoll on Twitter and I thought it was so cute. It was probably a resin and it a different sculpt but it was really lovely Hopefully I can pass her as a 1/3 child/early teenager so shes not out of scale with my other girls Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Miko is the one I'm more concerned about, since it has the chest joint.

0bsequi0us Posted February 8, 2023 Some hobbyists in China are starting to get their dolls! Unfortunately there seems to be sort of a poor opinion of them, but I don't understand Chinese well enough to know what the reason is 😰 I saw a video showing that the arms fall out easily, but in the comments people were saying that theirs stayed in just fine. Someone also took these very helpful comparison pictures: 2 Pixel art by @PlasticJester ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh no… I hope that whatever the issue is its not too much of a problem for owners. This was the first run for these dolls so I was expecting some sort of issue but I’m somewhat worried now. I’m still looking forward to receiving mine so I’m keeping my fingers crossed. Probably best for now to be cautiously optimistic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Probably best for now to be cautiously optimistic. I'm still pretty excited ngl, for the price I'm sort of expecting some little issues 😅 I know with their 1/6 vinyl doll the first run was also a little problematic (the legs liked to fall off) but subsequent runs seem to have fixed the problem. Hopefully whatever problems they might have can be remedied easily. 1 Pixel art by @PlasticJester ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’m still excited for mine as well, just a little cautious. In particular I’m really excited to see how the tan tone looks in real life. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm going to stay skeptical of the bad claims until I see more or one of you chime in when you get yours. That video is so short and kind of vague/unclear (i.e.: they don't clearly show us the side with the problem arm, it may not have been in properly to begin with.)

bananaaether Posted February 9, 2023 I bet some tape wrapped around the arm peg would help it stay in a little better. For a price this cheap I also definitely expected somewhat delicate construction, so c'est la vie haha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Courtmom Posted February 9, 2023 Im laughing so hard after watching that video. “When I AGRESSIVELY shake my doll, the arm pops out! 😱! Oh no! Don’t buy!” (Not what was said) like bruh. A little bit of tape on the peg will probably fix that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
