The new resin incarnation of my half-Korean, half-Mongolian acrobat and martial artist, Choi Ha-Neul, arrived today. He was originally a Littlefee Pipi, but that doll was far too young-looking for him. I wanted him to be around 12-13 years old, not 4-5 (which is the age the Littlefee appears to be). This new doll is a bit more mature looking, so I'm placing him at around 17 years old, but he's a MUCH better fit for the character.

I haven't yet decided what I'll do with the Pipi - I'll likely hold onto him for a while, at least, while I decide. As much as I like the cuteness of many of the tiny dolls, every time I get one I don't do anything with it. The larger sizes really are more to my taste (which kind of sucks, because they're so much bigger and take up way more room in my apartment, but such is the way of life). I already know what larger doll I'm probably going to be getting to replace Hiiroshi's current YoSD Rengemaru form. I'm about 95% settled on selling off all but three of my tinies. I'd keep Child!Aiko, Miss Marcheline, and Miss Adrienne, because they're all meant to be those smaller sizes (in proportion to my other dolls from the same storylines). But YoSD Hiiroshi and the Littlefee Ha-Neul are just too little and childish for their characters, and my other two tinies (PukiPuki and the Littlefee El) are impulse purchases that sit around and that I haven't done ANYTHING with because, as cute as they are, I don't know what to do with them.

Anyway, I digress. The new Ha-Neul is a Dollti D, thanks to Alex/Nathankatt, who remembered how much I loved him when I restrung him five or so years ago, and who PM'd me last month asking if I was interested in purchasing him. I've been looking for one of these boys for years, and am tickled pink that I finally have one.

No pictures, yet, because he's still in need of things like an appropriate wig and eyes, and some clothing. (Though amazingly, I do have shoes that both suit and fit him).
