Dolls

Tobias

Tobias was the second 60 cm Asian ball-jointed doll that I've ever purchased. (The first was a Volks Dollfie Dream.) He was manufactured by a Chinese company known as Fantasy Doll.

Technical Specs:

Type of Doll: Fantasy Doll Tobias
Size: 60 cm/24 inches
Hair: Wears a size 9 doll wig.
Eyes: Wears his original default eyes--a pair of blue acrylic eyes.
Lips: Light pink lips painted directly on the doll using acrylic paint diluted with water and sealed with a matte varnish.
Blushing: Light pink blush on the cheeks, around the eyes, on the nipples, and genital area using acrylic paint diluted with water. The entire body was sealed with a matte varnish, two layers of Mr. Super Clear, and two layers of Mr. Top Coat.

Date I Finished Customizing This Doll: June 29, 2007

Here is Tobias on arrival day. (Yes, that's his head peeking out the package after I inadvertantly ripped the styrofoam while I was trying to free him from the package.) He was packaged very tighly in between two very thick layers of styrofoam. It took a while to open the box because it was packaged in so many layers of tape.

Here is how the doll was packaged in his styrofoam container. He managed to arrive in one piece.

Here he is standing on his own after he was finally freed from his packaging.

Here is Fantasy Doll Tobias standing next to a Volks Dollfie Dream. As you can see, they are both the same scale.

Here is Tobias after I gave him a face-up and body blushing.
