And lack of funds is a huge unmotivator. It's kind of like me with the weather. I can't do any sort of customizing, so I've been amusing myself by slowly changing everyone's clothes. very, very slowly.<br /><br />Ha I'll be amazed if I accomplish any of it. My 2014 list was pretty fail. But I like to pretend to have goals. Maybe I'll get around to a couple things...VampireAngel13https://www.blogger.com/profile/07632516236418449224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8264213243927563195.post-38431824888178411342015-01-06T11:40:49.504-08:002015-01-06T11:40:49.504-08:00Happy rather belated new year! I've been so so...Happy rather belated new year! I've been so so bad at keeping up with blogger. It's terrible. I thought I was going to get back into things a while ago but I've been so broke I have a hard time working on much of anything because I'll reach a point where I'd have to spend money and then I just lose all my motivation.<br /><br />Sorry. Got rambly there for a sec. <br /><br />That's quite a list you have there! Wow. I hope you manage to accomplish all of your goals for this year! I look forward to seeing how things go! Not a bad idea to plan out purchases as well. I should definitely do something along those lines when funds become more available so that I can try to avoid impulse purchases.

Ha I can do that! I was thi...HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!! :D<br /><br />Ha I can do that! I was thinking of getting a shot of just all the heads, mostly for me, so I know what's in the box...Since I never look at it I'm afraid I'll forget and miss someone. :\<br /><br />I don't know. Mirodoll is making a broader-shouldered version of their 60cm boy body for a special order and I was seriously considering joining that - because a huge part of my dissatisfaction with that doll was the shoulder width. I still thought it was too small. I liked Cosmo a lot until I gave it a faceup - then it didn't work for me. So I'm still kind of thinking about it. I'm also afraid to get too many things on my plate XD I already have so many!! I might just stick with Gambit and Jean. They look so good to me, I don't want to ruin that dynamic. If Mirodoll puts that body up for sale as an actual option, I'll be more likely to do it I think.<br /><br />Ooh we could do a swap!! That way if I have anything you need I can send it! I've often thought that was something DOA needed - a swap room. Just for trades. I thought that was the best part of that last day of "room" sales at Dollism when they kicked us all out of our rooms and we were crammed into the lobby. We all had our stuff so lots of swapping was happening. I feel like we (as doll owners) could move our stuff out a lot quicker. Or there would be more scams and money loss. It's tough to tell with people these days.<br /><br />Anyway, Isis is a tough one because not a lot of places sell clothes I want for her - I created a board on my Pinterest account for her because I didn't really know what she should be wearing either :\\\\ Java is probably the easiest and hardest - as a Burlesque dancer I want a lot of white fluffley, lacy things for him, but since he's on a boy body I'm not sure what will fit (plus as a mini I don't know where to go to buy him things like that). Metatron is just massive, and Ryuji is cyberpunk - yet another style not available in the BJD world. Though I keep looking at Alice and really, if I'd spend the money, I could get a lot of stuff for most of my dolls there. They kind of have that cyber-punk meets Post-apocalyptic vibe going on that I need for...everyone.<br /><br />I'm super-excited about the Benedict Cumberbatch head lol - he's the one I want for photo stories. He'll be my first doll that actually interacts with me - other than Alex I, the others don't know I exist if that makes sense. I wouldn't do a story with me involved. Someday far far into the future I'd love Spock and Kirk, but I'm not sure if anyone ever made a Chris Pine MNM and the Spock one is a pretty small run I think. So it'll never happen. But I can dream. <br />I actually liked the third season a lot (I just rewatched it Sunday lol - then Star Trek.....those are my go-to "I'm bored" shows/movies).I loved the wedding episode and I did not see the whole Mary thing coming at all. Plus Moriarty cliff-hanger! But it was Khan that kind of got me thinking I wanted the head. That and I have really really been wanting a MNM of some kind lately....just to the faceup on. After seeing Star Trek for the millionth time I decided the BC head was my best choice. Better than some random one off the MP anyway. Plus, he can be anyone Benedict plays! So that's fun.<br />I watched Wrath of Khan after seeing Into Darkness....and I like the old cast, and enjoyed it for what it was...I'm partial to the new ones. But honestly I don't think I know one woman who does not like the new ones. Most men I know hate them....I chalk it up to the younger, hotter cast of guys. XD<br /><br />I hope you had fun last night! I can't believe it's 2015 already either (well, for me, it will be tomorrow - close enough). I'm sorta in denial. I feel like I should have more time....VampireAngel13https://www.blogger.com/profile/07632516236418449224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8264213243927563195.post-74181551046146891402014-12-30T19:34:32.594-08:002014-12-30T19:34:32.594-08:00Weird request but if you ever get a chance, I'...Weird request but if you ever get a chance, I'd love to see a photo of your 'head' box. I am always really interested how other collectors store their floating heads. I used to have quite a few myself but I ended up selling a lot of them and only have three now (although my DZ Cosmo floating head shares the Soom body with Epidos.)<br /><br />Do you plan to recreate Wolverine again in another sculpt?<br /><br />What kind of clothes and wigs are you looking for? I've got a heap in a box I'd be happy to pass on to you if they suited. (Saves you dollars that way too!) And I agree about the bother trying to sell these sorts of things on DoA. The other thing you can do with clothing you don't want but don't want to sell is take them apart for patterns or re-purpose them for another doll size?<br /><br />Photo stories are such a lot of work. I used to do them every now and then but I got annoyed because I didn't have the right backdrops and props etc. And you know, photo stories should be fun for you to do so definitely do ones that will make you happy. I'll look forward to whatever you end up doing!<br /><br />Let me know what you think of Withdoll's Tiny body. I was really seriously considering the Raul sculpt but I've had dealings with Withdoll before (when I bought my Fenrir which I have since sold) and I was a bit hesitant and ended up bypassing it. <br /><br />Congrats on all the orders! I am curious about the BC head. What did you think of the third season of Sherlock? I didn't think it was as good as the first two but I still watched it because it's BC and Sherlock! Khan was positively chilling in the new Star Trek. I saw the original Khan and I gotta admit, did nothing for me. <br /><br />Tomorrow is 2015 here in Oz; saying it still leaves me flabbergasted at how fast this year has flown by. <br /><br />Hope you have a good New Year's Eve and New Year whatever you end up doing!<br /><br /><br /><br />AlasseCarnesirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10014121062303198129noreply@blogger.com
