... and he is not what I expected at all. This is not good or bad news - just different.
He has a nice faceup but his body resin is really shiny. He also does not have ANY weight to him, which is strange compared to Shuichi's considerable heft.
No MSD clothing or shoes fit him, which is frustrating. The suit is just stupid. He has to live in either his default clothing or the yukata Vincents Angel at DoA made for me for a while. I guess I need to get him shoes from Orient Doll. They better make a suit to fit him soon or the whole point of the character will be ruined and the doll will pretty much be useless to me.
They sent the grey eyes that look blue, not grey, even though I specifically asked for the particular number for the grey eyes I wanted. Like hell am I going to pay $26 for a pair of 8mm eyes I could swallow and pass through my gut with no problem. Maybe someone will get the eyes I want and we can trade. And yes, they were a pain to get in, but not as bad as I thought. I guess all the futzing I did with Shu's eyes paid off.
rat did make a comment about when I was going to put him on eBay...
Photos later. I am pressing to get part 2 of Shu's birthday script done tonight, if possible, but I am already really exhausted.
