Whoa these head sculpts look great! The separate rolling eyes looks implemented well!

Got my shipping notice from giantoy. Need to wait til wednesday when i am back from vacation to post pics.

Got mine yesterday. It's a pretty decent head. Here is a first snapshot. I can provide more pictures, if there is interest...

Yes please!

Excellent quality. And beautiful photography.

Cool photo. And yes, please to see more.

GReat shot Ralf!
I just have a snapshot of mine with the phone, I also like it (Version B) the hair is of real nice qquality (I think they oiled or waxed it a bit?)




Trying to make more later

Ooph! They are so pretty! Yes, more pictures please!

And an announcement for an adult version. Please.

Here's mine, just got it today!
Goes well with my S24A, previously the SDH series were a bit too big  



Here's also a comparison with SDH030. Like @Valiarde mentioned, the hair quality is drastically different!


Imma definitely gonna get some more shooting done with this one~  

Nicely photographed.

It's very pretty and seems like really nice quality, especially the paint job. Normally most paintjobs on generic heads are so lackluster.  I do wish it was maybe a tiny bit more realistic, as it verges just slightly too much on stylised doll look to go with the aesthetic of my current collection.

Amen!

I also think the skin is a bit too porcelain, but nothing that couldnt be fixed. I just love the moveable eye option

See, this is the thing I still can't understand the hype about. Everyone has their preferences, I know, but moveable eyes are so far down my list of priorities, it would never be a factor in making me buy something, ever.

I'm more interested in overall aesthetics. Happy for everyone who cares about moveable eyes, lol, but they are really a 'nothing' feature to me.

But how can you resist all the possible options...

Movable eyes are really required for poses with turned heads, as eyes stay never centered under these conditions. It immediately looks odd, if the eyes remain static...    

As promised, I made a few more pictures of the head. Sorry for the long delay.
Here you go...

Awesome!! Is this Basic Instinct?
btw, do you recall where the cig & headphone were from??

Beautifully photographed, Ralf.

Welp, I’m regretting greatly not preordering this. Absolutely beautiful pics Ralf! I’m glad they did far better with the eyes this time around (compared to the Nana sculpt). It’s times like this that I’m glad Machinegun is behind everyone else.

Thanks, I actually did not think of Basic Instinct, when staging the shots, but I see what you mean...
The cigarette is from a recent Gangster Kingdom set (Diamond a Angelo). I cannot remember where the headphones came from (bought them loose on eBay).

Thanks, Ian. Sorry for not being more active on the board lately.

It's a little bit hit-and-miss with i8, lately. The Shizuki head was quite nice, while the Nana head was somewhat flawed. I keep my fingers crossed that you can still find Yuki somewhere, maybe at Machinegun in a little while.

Wow! Such beautiful shots. I’m also regretting not gettin one of these sculpts.

Holy cow! She is gorgeous, but your photography is just ridiculously good. ^^
Love the outfit, and the setting and those colors (!) are amazing!

hello, I just received my head and I took some pictures to share my opinion with you. I think it's a very nice head. For the color of the skin, we are between pale and suntan at phicen. In the photo, she seems to be a little better on suntan. I have tried it on different phicen bodies but so far it is on my S33 and my S17 that it is the best. I think it would look good on a smaller body size.

On suntan bodies

Hello Milckynebula! Welcome to the boards! Nice of you to join us and thank you for the beautiful photos. It does look like a good colour match.

I took the liberty of removing the duplicates from your post, as you had the same three pictures displayed four times. I hope you don't mind. ^^

I hope to see you around!

Thank you Diana!!! I try to cancel them but as I'm new I didn't do very well.

She does look beautiful and the match is pretty good.

Well, I think I just managed to snag version D from Ekia. Not 100% sure and won’t be till I get the shipping notice, but all versions were preorder last night and now they’re in stock. So fingers crossed she ships! My wallet is upset, she sure wasn’t cheap, but it’s been getting beat up lately.

ETA: It has apparently shipped with tracking. It’s no longer listed on their site, and of the 5 versions of this head only two remain. Soooooooo, did I literally slide in under the wire?? I think maybe. I’ll be happier when that tracking number updates with an ETA.
