What if I made a sideblog entirely for dolls?

Cu-Poche’s Anne’s winking faceplate got its own Obitsu 11cm body.  I then made her an icing hair wig, and I made her dress :) 

The laces on her boots are so long... but I worry about trimming them because they’d be SO much more difficult to tie in bows if they were short.  I often have this issue when I get lace-up doll shoes.  I’m not really sure what the best solution would be :/

Day 65/365

I think Wilice and Yuuko are just as excited as I am about the Nendoroid sleeping bag I picked up at Tate's Comics in Florida. I should have bought another one.

Wilice is a Cu-poche Belle Yuuko is a Cu-poche Anne

Melina’s Gryffindor room. The whole family thought she’d be Slytherins like the rest of them. Her mum had already knitted her a Slytherin scarf and cushion cover, but rapidly cranked out a Gryffindor scarf and afghan as soon as she heard the news. Melina has started the House Unity Club at Hogwarts, and membership, though small for now, is increasing!

Otakon Recap 2018 (Long Post)

Intro: This would be my seventh time going to Otakon. This is the fourth year where I will be going there by myself. This is also the first time I would be staying the full three days in DC since last year I was not able to. My cosplay for this con will be Jokerʼs dancing outfit in Persona 5: Dancing in Starlight. Day 1: I checked into to the Pod DC Hotel drop off my stuff in my room. Once I was finished, it was time to get into costume. As I walked to the convention center, I was getting sweaty from the heat outside. Once I made it inside, it was time to head to dealers room. I walked around for a bit and took a couple of pics. Around 2PM, I ate in the downtown district of the convention center. I ate chicken karaage, shrimp shumai, and squid karaage. After I finished eating, I walked around in the artist alley and dealerʼs room to check out what I can buy. I ended buying keychains of Ren, Ann, and Haru from Persona 5 in the Artist Alley. Around 4PM, I head up to the first floor to go to a panel. The panel I attended was Creating Voices with Josh Grelle. He is a voice actorunder Funimation and he told us the how he got in voice acting. He also told us about some of the things people have to do when getting into voice acting. He notes that finding your voice is important, keep your voice lubricated, and if your voice starts to hurt, stop doing it and seek help. He talked about how one voice actor kept performing until he discovered he had polyps and could not use his voice for two months. I did learn a lot of things in his panel and how much time and work it takes to be a voice actor. After it was over, I decided to head back to my hotel around 5:30. Once I was back into my room, I changed into some comfortable clothes and head out to eat dinner at Nandoʼs with my parents. It was nice to see other cosplayers in Nandoʼs getting dinner. After we were finished, my parents and I dropped by to the lobby of the Renaissance hotel. We went our separate ways as they went home while I head back to the convention center. I went up to the second floor and sat near the window where there was going to be a Kpop random dance play by HARU around 8PM. It was fun session with the group. I danced to a couple songs (BIGBANGʼs Bang Bang Bang, Super Juniorʼs Sorry Sorry, Momolandʼs Bboom Bboom, and a bunch of others). I do remember that security came and told everyone to keep it down because we were making noise by stomping our feet. Other than that, I had fun dancing with other people. Once that waa over, I decided to head up to the third floor for a late night panel at 10PM. This panel was called LAVA After Dark. It had Ray Chase, Robbie Daymond, and Max Mittelman in which they do bunch of random games and asked for the audience for suggestion in the games that they were doing. It was such a fun panel. I remember there was a game 6 or 7 people and they had to pass around a dildo. The winner actually won a dildo... I remember they showed a slide where there was going to be a live re-enactment of Boku no Pico, which the audience laughed and screamed in horror. Obviously, it was a joke and they were never ever going to do that. I also remember how the guys showed video clips of some of there embarrassing videos they made when they were young. I even loved where they had to say a bunch of catchphrases while talking with a dental mouth guard. Overall, I was entertained by watching the three of them doing their thing in front everyone. After it was over, it was time to go back to my hotel. Once I held back to my room, I watched the latest episode of Grand Blue then went to sleep and thatʼs the end of the first day. Day 2 I got up around 9AM to start the day. I showered and got into my costume. As I went outside, I stopped by Starbucks to grab a quick bite. Once I head  to the convention center, I went back to dealers room where there was a line. I waited in line until the staff let congoers inside. As I walked down, I looked around again to see what I can buy and took a few more pics of different cosplayers. I ended up buying a Cu Poche figure of Ren and getting two t-shirts from Kakegurui and My Hero Academia. Around 11AM, I ate pizza before heading to the second floor for the Persona/SMT gathering. It was fun to see a lot of people cosplaying different characters from the Persona or SMT series. I got a couple of individual pics from some cosplayers before heading to the third floor. The panel was called the Persona 5 the animation steals Otakon. It started off showing the Persona 5: The Daybreakers before it talks about the upcoming Persona dancing games and the Persona 5 anime. It wasnʼt really anything special because I already knew about the dancing games and the anime itself.  They even had the best moments from the anime in which the number one was Kawakami showing up as a maid while the other two was Ren’s and Yusuke’s Awakening. They also had the best male and female characters in the anime in which it was given to Ren because he is the main protagonist and Makoto because everyone loves her and people hail her as the best girl (to which she isnot but that’s different story). The only thing I enjoyed was seeing Max Mittelman make an appearance and having Morgana appeared. Once that was over, I took a couple more pics while heading down the dealers room. Around 2:30PM, I headed to the second floor for another Persona photo shoot, though this time it was just the characters of Persona 5. It was a fun shoot but I definitely prefer the Persona/SMT shoot from earlier. Afterwards, I decided to head to the artist alley again. I ended up buying a Kiryu and Majima keychain before heading to the dealers room once more. When I went inside, I tried to get an autograph from Max Mittelman but I missed it as the line was already full. After that happened, I decided to head back to my hotel room around 5PM. I quickly showered and change into some causal clothings and dropped off my merchandise I bought. I head back to the convention center again. I head to the first floor to attend the Korean variety game panel. Basically, it was a bunch of games that were shown from Weekly Idol and the audience had to the chance to participate. I only took part in one game, which was the Korean versions rock-paper-scissors. They only played three games but I was expecting more from them. Other than that, I did enjoy the panel. Once it was over, I head over to the second floor to go to the uptown food district to grab a brisket sandwich for my dinner. After finishing my meal, it was time to get he#d over to the third level for the next panel. The panel I attended was called the LAVA: Super Happy Funtime. This was basically the PG version of their panel that Max, Robbie, and Ray did on Friday night. In this panel, they played the Fluffy Bunny Challenge in which they said a catchphrase while eating marshmallows. The phrase they had to say was “Omae wa mou shindeiru”. Robbie and Ray had to say it in Japanese while Max said in English. It was some funny shit and in the end, Max lasted longer than the both of them. They also played other games called Japanimaker, Late for the Panel, and Three Headed Expert. It was a fun panel, After that was over, I headed over the artist alley again. I walked there for a few minutes before he#ding to the rave. Once I was finished looking around, it was time to head the second floor. After checking my bag to the staff, it was now time to dance. Honestly, it took me awhile to get in the mood. The music wasnʼt great at first but I started to enjoy a couple hours later. I remember someone was cosplaying as a t-Rex and kept dancing inside the circle. While I was at the dance floor, I ran into a friend of mine from school. We both greeted each other then we our separate ways while in the dance floor. I do remember her other friend she brought going into a dance circle and busting a couple moves, which I thought it was hilarious. After walking around and dancing for a bit, it was time to go back. My lower back started hurting as I was jumping up down in the dance and slowly made my way back to the hotel I came back around 1AM and quickly went to bed. That was the end of a long second day at Otakon. D#y 3 I woke up #round 8AM. I got some breakfast from McDonaldʼs to start the day. After finishing my meal, I took a quick shower and headed towards the convention center. Once I made my way inside, it was time to head down the dealers room. When I my way there, the line was enormous. There was at one point where  they had cut the line because it was filling up near the emergency exit. I thought it was complete bullshit for the people that were just arriving. The staff told us that the people have to come back around 10:30 since the line was getting too long. After waiting until 10:30, I decided to head back to the dealers room. From there, I finally had the chance to get an autograph and picture with Max Mittelman. As I walked to his table, he complimented on my No Moʼ Rules t-shirt. I asked him to sign the picture where Ryuji is wearing Annʼs uniform. We had a little chat when he was signing the picture. He asked me how many hours I put in on Persona 5 and told him about 380 hours. He replied thatʼs gotta be a world record. I also told him that I played it again because since I was cosplaying as Ren for the con. After signing the picture, I thanked him and told him it wss nice meeting him. After that, it was time to head to the third floor for Kpop Dance Contest by ECKO. I made my way to the third floor and entered into Ballroom B for the show. I enjoyed the performance by the individuals and groups. I did love the performances by Mikle, Jeanyeo, and HARU. After the show was done, everyone got together for a group selfie. Once it ended, it was time to head out. I went the dealers room for the last time to see what I can buy but I ended buying nothing. I made my way to lobby to take a couple of pictures then headed my way out and thatʼs the end of my trip in Otakon. Final Thoughts: I enjoyed going to Otakon again. I was happy that I was able to see the full three days in DC. It was nice to seeing a bunch of cosplayers dressing up as characters from different Persona games. I did love going to the Creating Voices Panel and learning about voice acting. I also enjoyed going the LAVA panel and how fun it was. As always, I will find a way to head back next year.

New face and hair sets for Cu-Poche Alice and Anne

[bwprowl]

WonFes isn’t over until I say it’s over! I’m here to check out a bunch more cool things spotted at the show the other weekend that caught my eye, running the gamut from cute animals to cute giant power armors. I’ll also take a glance at a couple of pre-orders, both expectedly and unexpectedly interesting to me. There’s plenty to see here on Tuesday Night Toys!

New Stuff: Reader’s WonFest

Dengeki Hobby dropped their complete photo coverage of Summer WonFes, and I’ve combed through it for anything that looks cool. Let’s get right to it, shall we?

As Japan’s predilections for cute animal collectibles becomes ever more esoteric, we come to these figurines of Shibas with their heads stuck in various conical constructs! Seems like they started with the concept of one with its head caught in a traffic cone and just went off from there. It is weird, but it’s also cute.

Kaiyodo’s partnership in making cool vinyl animals continues, bringing us such treats as a T. rex and a cat! They look as good as others and offer some mild posability for fun as well.

There’s a whole set of Fate-series swimsuit statues getting made, and the obvious winner is this sexy Gil in shiny shorts.

Really cool to see that Ann Akagi of my dark-horse contender for favorite show of the Summer, Action Heroine Cheer Fruits, is on-deck to get a statue already. Merch at this point bodes well for the show, I hope it does well. Enough for them to do Roko later, anyway.

New Polynians were shown off, including art for these two new ones on their way. I really dig the breadth of styles and looks these things are coming out in, and some announced color-variants of previous models means we might see these in different paint jobs later too.

There’s also this BeastBox line shamelessly ripping off one of my favorite Transformer names, but they look like pretty cool little toys, so I can forgive it.

Sentinel’s 4-Inch-Nel line of action figures looks to be expanding from Mega Man to the Fate series (which, really, everyone is getting into nowadays) and should offer an interestingly smaller, slightly cheaper alternative to collecting posable toys of all your favorite Servants.

Cu-Poche of course had a lot of cool new entries to show off, but these little dudes in suits were probably my favorite. Hey, maybe I can custom up a cute chibi figure of *myself*!

Not only did Kotobukiya have the finished version of their Ikemen Nightwing statue on display, they also revealed the next entry in their sexy-superdude line: Nightwing’s bad-boy counterpart Jason Todd, the Red Hood. I’m thinking these people know their fans pretty well.

If you need 1/35-scale schoolgirls or little animals in your life, then this company has you covered. That’s not quite to scale with the minis that get used in stuff like DnD or 40k, but might be neat to have all the same.

There’s so darn many Touhou statues that I get kind of ambivalent about them, but Ques has some exceptionally pretty-looking ones coming out. I just really like the style on Reimu and Marissa here.

Little Armory continues to expand the range for their rangers, and their next surprise entry is a scale shooting range. It’s so cool the way they keep thinking of new accessories to add to compliment the guns they focus on.

Threezero is bringing to beautiful life the extra-cool-looking manga Ultraman design. It’ll be absurdly expensive, but seeing how good it looks, you can tell why.

And proving that there is no God, AZone will be producing dolls based on this season’s shittiest hit, In Another World With My Smartphone, starting with the 12-year-old fiancé with *special eyes*.

Wishlist: Super Electromagnetic Shrapnel Kanon

Figure Complex’s next Revoltech-powered Marvel figure went up for pre-order: Master of Magnet himself, Magneto! The style and ambition of the line continues to bleed through on him, that cape is absolutely insane. There’s also plenty of fun to be had with him, as he comes with a couple clip-on magnetism effects with actual magnets in them! Witness those promo pics as he maliciously manipulates paper clips! Really love how devoted to playability Figure Complex gets on these guys, even if these or the stick-on magnet stand on Spider-Gwen make for toys you don’t want to get *too* close to your computer.

A bunch of prize figures from Banpresto also went up for pre-order on AmiAmi, and this one of Kanon from Love Live! Sunshine unexpectedly caught my eye. I dunno, Kanon’s hardly my favorite Aquor’s member (that’s either Riko or Hanamaru, depending on my mood), but she was cool enough, and her outfit on this figure looks super-cool, and she’s a mere 1,300 Yen. It’s tempting to throw on a pre-order for this, really.

And that’s your lot for this week, everyone! I’ll take some time off my poor desk (nothing *super* new or interesting to talk about) and leave you with just all those shiny new things to contemplate. Things should be back to a semblance of business as usual next week. I’ll see you then, so you have fun in the meantime!

Originally, I was buying bodies for each of the Cu-Poche faceplates, putting them with either Obitsu 11cm bodies or Cu-Poche bodies.  Unfortunately, Obitsu 11cm are getting a bit harder to find for cheap.  Also, when I saw that Anne, Belle, Cherie, and Alice were all getting three new faceplates, I was like... okay, maybe I need to change my plans.  This is getting to be a lot of figures...  Now that I have Anne's new faceplates though... I totally want to put all three on their own bodies -_-  I should've known I'd feel that way.  These pics are all testing out the new faceplates and hair on one body though (which is the Cu-Poche girl body, which comes with some fun optional hands!)

The new pigtail hairstyle is really cute, as are all the new expressions ^_^  (The third faceplate will be in the next post.)

DOLL 365, 2017 - Day 51

I didn't get to post a picture yesterday because I had a job interview, but I wanted to share the good news with a belated picture... I got the job!

Lynna is a Cupoche Friends bjd! She's a mix of two dolls from the Cupoche Friends line, her hair is from Belle and her faceplate is from Anne. She originally started out as Cherie though!

Over time, I started to write an actually story for Lynna and when I did some parts of her appearance needed to change to match the story. She is intended to have bright blue eyes and purple short hair, but I can't bring myself to paint the short hair I have for her. I'm so worried about messing it up!

Cu-poche dolls are a little bit smaller than Obitsuroids, but that works out perfect for the height difference I wanted them to have.

I bought the original Cherie doll from AmiAmi, but Belle and Anne I bought used off eBay.

Character Profile

Lynna

*insert legitimate art of Lynna here when I have some*

Lynna recently moved to Stardew Valley after leaving her desk job in Zuzu City. She inherited the farm from her late grandpa, but it’s been years since she was last in the valley, and in all honesty she has no idea how to run a farm. She has bright blue eyes and short purple hair.

Shortly after moving to the valley Lynna meets Sebastian who seems to want nothing to do with her at first. After making friends with Sam and Abby, they explain to her that Seb just isn’t good around people and that it has nothing to do with her personally. After that she and Seb slowly become close friends until one day she realizes she’s fallen in love with her awkward and quiet friend.

Birthday: Summer 27

Loves: Sunflowers, Coffee, Cats, Sleeping, Magic

Hates: Joja Cola, Coleslaw, Holly, Depression, Wizard, Waking up Early (wow good choice becoming a farmer)

Friends: Sam, Abby, Shane, Sebastian, Marnie, Robin

november 2016. By some stroke of luck, I found out the kotobukiya USA website was selling the alternate hair/face pack for Cu-Poche Friends Anne... it ended up being around 20+15 shipping, which was much cheaper than virtually anywhere else. I was in it for the sulky face and the cute ponytail, which can also go without as a short look if you wanted to put a hat on her. which i do. She’s absolutely adorable this way. I didn’t think I’d get my hands on her alt face this soon, but now she’s ready to be dressed up!!

I ended up naming her Miharu.....  (´･///ω///･`);;
