Another shot of Impldoll Christopher, my white skin elf. She's wearing a wig that was included with Cutie Angel Mari (it's slightly too large), and a one-of-a-kind Mod Alice outfit by Nancie of Nankatts.

She's just serene and lovely. I'd love to add another ImplDoll to my collection. I think Chris is feeling a bit isolated lately. She needs a more mature friend.

Fantasia by ImplDoll

A new exclusive ball-jointed doll, limited to only 50 pieces, has been announced by ImplDoll, and she's a lovely fantasy character. Fantasia stands 63.5 cm (25 inches) tall, and includes a pair of glass eyes (random color). She has lavender skin. She includes elf hands and feet as well as human hands and feet (both flat and high heel). And she can stand in her elf feet as well. In addition, her elf ears (more like mermaid ears than elf ears) are magnetic.

Base price is $405 for the doll. Face up is additional $38. If you want, you can also add blushing to her elf hands and feet for $60, and her outfit for $36. It's not stated, but I think the wig may be included.

I have to confess, I'm sorely tempted. I own Christopher, a white-skin the elf, and she is simply lovely! I just love this doll--she's so... purple! Of course, she is available from your favorite ImplDoll dealer. Go check out more photos on ImplDoll's website. Let me know what you think! Is she weird? Am I?

Chris and Kai

ImplDoll Christopher has been blushed and sueded, and now she's made friends with an equally crabby fairy, Elfdoll Kai. Chris stands at 25 inches (63.5 cm), and Kai is only 5.5 inches (14 cm), so they make an interesting pair. A devil on her shoulder or an angel whispering in her ear? You decide.

Chris is wearing the black pieces from DollHeart's Love 'n the Ice outfit, an a brown and purple JRock wig by Monique Gold. Kai is dressed in her original full-set outfit and wig.

Oh my goodness. I'm absolutely smitten!

White skin ImplDoll Christopher (she's female) arrived today. ImplDoll is a new BJD company from China. Chris, as I am calling her, is my very first elf. She is an SD size--but very tall. She's a whopping 63.5 cm (25 inches), and taller and more realistically proportioned in the face than my other girls (Peak's Woods and Dollzone).

She has a factory face-up. It's simple, but very nice. I think the purple lips are perfect for a fantasy character. Her sleepy eyes make her look like she's looking down or away, giving her a haughty, judgmental look. She also has great cheekbones.

Her elbows are double-jointed, which makes it easy for her to touch her face. But her knees are not, so she stands easily. It's actually not a bad combination, since you get some nice looking knee joints.

I picked up a wig at the same time by Monique Gold, JRock in brown and purple, which happens to match her face-up and eyes perfectly. I don't know if her eyes vary, but they are glass, I believe, and a bit hard to photograph. They are brown/purple.

She's dressed in only the black pieces of DollHeart's Love 'n the Ice outfit. Strangely, the shoes I ordered are high heels (by ImplDoll), and I could not fit her feet into them. Maybe there is a trick, or a second set of high heel feet?

Her resin is a bit shiny, though--my one and only complaint. But that is easily fixed. (Not on her face--only her body.) I'll have to do my Magic Eraser trick when I add blushing to her body. She also needs a proper fairy outfit, too, I think.

Check out some other photos on my Flickr photostream. I'll hopefully be taking some more today.

ImplDoll exclusive at Denver Doll

Denver Doll is carrying two exclusive ImplDoll BJDs, which are available for ordering now. These new inexpensive dolls are getting a lot of hype both for their good quality and affordable prices.

These two dolls are Euguene (male) and Ember (female) and are called the Fantasy Twins. They are the first ImplDolls with magnetic ears. They include three sets: animal (donkey), elf and human ears.

The male stands at an impressive 64 cm (about 25.25") and the female at 63.5 cm tall (about 25"). Both are available as white skin dolls only. And it appears the face-up is included. The price is a surprisingly reasonable $350.
