My Leo arrived in town while was out for the holidays. I picked him up from the post office yesterday. He’s an Iplehouse SID Special Edition Shane. Here’s his box opening-

I ordered him blank and without his clothing set. All I ordered from his set was his gun, which is unbrushed. I also bought a light brown wig. I wasn’t in love with the red hair he had by default.

I bought 2 other sets of hands as well, a default set and fists, since he comes with gun holding hands. They are really amazingly crafted. Iplehouse’s sculpts are so impressive.

He came a little loosely strung, unlike my EID who was perfect right out of the box. I ended up restringing him because the box foam discolored him along many of his joints and it needed attention. The discoloration isn’t terrible, but I couldn’t remove all of it with just the magic eraser. It’s good that they ship in these foam pads for safety, but I guess it can be an issue for light skinned dolls. My Adel didn’t have all this trouble ^_^;; Leo and I are off to a sort of rough start~

I really like the NS resin. I was afraid it would be too light, but it is a very nice color in person. Not too pink or too yellow. It’s very natural. Standing next to Adel in LB he doesn’t look as pale as I had imagined LOL
