Ok, so it's not 2014 yet...and technically I don't have a new doll. Yet.
BUT, I have a trade going for a doll that's been on my wish list off and on for YEARS and I am so excited I can't stand it!!! So it's my final trade of 2013, which has seriously been the Year of Trades for me.
If all goes well with the trade, I should be getting a Unoa L-bi in a week or so. We're planning to ship tomorrow, but with the holiday in there I'm not sure how that'll affect the timing. Could be this weekend, which would rock because I have NOTHING planned, so I'll have time to play. And I only have the vaguest idea for this doll, so I need time to play XD
I've wanted a Unoa, any Unoa, since 09 when a close friend got a Lusis. I started seeing a few really well done ones around (and by well done I mean weird...I like the weird ones.) and seeing one in person really made me fall in love. Unfortunately I never really got past the insane price tag, and really, with no character for one at all I had no reason to shell out the cash. My friend sold her Lusis in 2010 and I haven't really seen one since. I had a FP for a while, but it never really worked out for me...first it was a SP Sist, and my favorites were always Lusis and L-bi. And I never really ironed out a character for it. And it was sleeping. Not normally an issue, but this time, yes.
Off and on I had trades up for Unoas but never got anything....just the other day I re-added it back to my sales stuff because I had seen one or two up for sale and got the bug again. The next day I got the offer for my Switch/Souldoll and went for it. He has what is possibly an Angel Toast faceup, and since I like her work I may try to keep it...or I might wipe it. As I mentioned, vague plan is vague but it doesn't involve a natural faceup.
As far as Unoas go, I didn't really care which I ended up with, but really wanted a boy, so L-bi is perfect. I kind of want to maybe get him a Lusis fp, or maybe the Sist Bully and I've always wanted that Akubi face, so that might be something I try to get regardless, but we'll see how he works out first. Cause my car just broke down, and my cat is getting "fixed" finally, so I see two huge bills in my future plus rent and other bills so I am totally broke atm. Doll money is ZERO. Yay.
I was looking at my list to see if I could sell anyone and really, the only ones right now I care to get rid of are three I know if I sell I will never own again....so I'm not really ready to give them up. With no sales, there's no doll money in my future...not that I've sold anything lately :\\\\
I got a new lens for my camera yesterday, so maybe I can sell one or two of the old ones... That might bring in a couple bucks. Or not, they're not great lol
Anyway, I hope everyone has a great and SAFE New Year!!! I may do a quick post before then but just in case....
HAPPY NEW YEAR
it better be better than this one was....alls I'm sayin.
Happy New Year to you!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the impending trade. Hope all goes well. The Unoas are pretty nice dolls. Don't think I will ever get one myself. I think my doll quota is pretty much reached now. That or I am starting to feel I have way too much!
