Need Advice!

Hi guys, I need some advice.

I was redressing my Momoko and I broke her wrist! It's pretty much irreparable. I was going to just crazy glue it but I lost the little post that makes the wrist move.  I was just going to give her a story line. This is terrible.

So can I get a Momoko arm anywhere?  I tried an Obitsu arm I have hanging around and that didn't work. I could rebody her but no one on earth is as pale as she is, even my palest doll!

The Hubs had a great idea that i might try. Give her a robotic arm. He even dismantled some action figure to help me out. This is a cool idea. Hardly realistic but I think the lines of realism in Grandville will start blurring.

Anyway, got any other solutions? Replacement Momoko bodies? Dang, those girls are expensive and look so much like children that it's really hard to give them boyfriends. I don't want another one. But I live Morgan, my drug dealer.

Please help! Someone please lend a hand! (okay couldn't resist that.)


smooches,
dani

  1. Oh no!!! :( I have never owned a Momoko and have zero advice. I hope someone can help you as these gals are very expensive. Is she really paler than the white(literally) skinned Obitsu? I have one of those and she is SUPER pale! Or did the Obitsu arm just not fit?

  2. Are you sure you couldn't just rebody her on an Obitsu body? Junky spot has pretty decent prices on various Obitsu bodies and they are in the US, so you won't have to worry about international shipping times.

  3. The Obitsu arm didn't fit and the body I have is even more juvenile than she already is. Though it is the right shade. Maybe I'll just try to find the right Obitsu body out there.

    But SOMEONE is getting a robot arm. I just can't resist!

  4. Try this link: http://junkyspot.com/obindex.html
    These are all 27cm in height but there are some that aren't as juvenile in looks as the one you might have. Here is one of my gal's on an Obitsu body I bought from junkyspot: http://www.flickr.com/photos/adollaffinity/6125997057/in/set-72157627986981231/

    She is meant to have a cute thing going on. lol

    And as for roboarm on a dolly....YOU SHOULD TOTALLY GO FOR IT! :D

  5. Holy chicihi's! She's adorable. Okay I'm going to check them out. The ones I have must be pre-teens or something.

  6. Yeah, miss Pandora's top goods are the large bust size. lol They have small bust and they also have 25cm and lower, which might be what you have.

  7. Okay I just bought a medium bust. Thanks Cat! Oh my new nerdy Sulu is going to be really grateful.

    They have CLEAR bodies? Oh man, Grandville is going supernatural!

  8. Yay! I feel like I was actually helpful! lol :) I also have the medium bust, that one is going to a re-root for my sister. Speaking of re-roots where did you purchase your wool roving? I need to buy some for Adrian's dreadlocks. :) Because now I can't see him any other way after the picture you sent. lol

    And I SO thought of you when I saw the clear bodies. They really cool. I can see the hot androids of Grandville now. Or maybe Nymeria could have an android-esk assistant?

  9. An army of Fem bots! hahaha. You totally saved the day. Although now it means the citizens of Grandville are still on drugs. Thanks a lot Cat. hahah!

    I got the wool roving from etsy. The one I sent you with Mme. Marie is from http://www.etsy.com/shop/HarborFibers

    The other one that was kind of a hot mess was from here: http://www.etsy.com/shop/slimchicken

    Just adding that in case you want to make the comparison to see why the second one was total crap...

  10. Hi from Spain, how frustrating it the hand of the doll. I can think to put another body. Sorry. Keep in touch

  11. I never own a Momoko because unlike Fashion Royalty,Dynamite girls and Fashionistas I think it will be very hard to find a body for them when something goes wrong! Hope you find something soon!

  12. Oh, no!!! That does not inspire confidence in pose-able wrists! But at least your husband was really sweet!

    Looks like you're into the robotic arm now - more power to ya! I think dolls are in alternate universes, anyway. ;-)

    BTW, I'm disappointed in the large bust, because it's too perky - but those bodies have intrigued me for a while.

  13. Another wedding question (if I turn out to like doll weddings even nearly as much as real ones, I'm in trouble). Are you going to get the bride Bella from Twilight? She doesn't seem too high priced. Nice dress for a non-typical bride.

    1. I am thinking about it, definitely. When I saw it on the blogs yesterday I couldn't dial home fast enough to tell the Hubs about it. I can always trade the doll...It's always good to have options right?

  14. Hello it's me lol. I just found your blog while I was checking out Cat's blog. Your stories are so great. I am going to back to read some more!

Grandville Summer Festival!

Hello doll friends, First up, I gotta show you this. My 4 year old was playing with my Barbie cast-offs and set up this little scene. (That yellow thing on the table is a TV shaped eraser.) Dig the lamp she made with a wedding cake and the pole from maybe a Barbie dress form? Adorbs. Anyway, this weather (raining pretty much daily for the last month or so) has wrecked my spray painting plans. Much of the royal storyline rests on this painting project. So for now I decided to continue the other stories I have going. Enjoy: "Ho-ly crap, what on earth are you wearing?" "Aw, Sook, I feel bad enough."   "Seriously. You are wearing khakis. You look cray cray. You're like somebody's mom right now. Please explain this situation." "My boss said my outfit was too sexy so I had to borrow something from Le Skater Dork over there at the cafe. Jeez, now I owe her one. Oh crap Channel 1 News is here."   "Thanks John. Lavita

Zee Gypsies!

I'm home today, the kids are at school (half day), so I decided to take some pictures with my little window of time. I rarely show the gypsies and one of you guys requested it, so here they are! "Hello, I am Carmen Kirpachi. Welcome to our home." "This is my husband Milosh." "Hallo."  "This is my brother, Franco. While his gaje girlfriend Josephine is in Paris, he's spending a lot more time with us." "Excuse me, I have to put some more wood in the stove so I can get dinner started." "My goat stew is Milosh's favorite but we need to get the pot hot first." "This is my living area, also known as Franco's bedroom. But we don't mind. The Romany love having family around." "Milosh says I drive like a fugitive so he doesn't let me drive very often." "But sometimes I put a glamour on him and he forgets how much he hates my driving." "

Introducing Nymeria and the Alurium Vaccarra

Ever have a couple of days off Facebook and though you wonder what happened to your friends over the long weekend, you can help feeling a little peaceful? That's how I feel in my week of staying off the blogs and forums and various sites. But I missed a lot! So many cool posts! It's going to take a while to dig myself out. One must wonder, did my creative spurt have something to do with not being all over the web looking at what everyone else is doing? Anyway let's get to it. So on my birthday, my three Stardolls arrived! Aside from the outfit, that Paris one was not cute. I dunno, she's too boring looking. But Iris was THRILLED that she got a new, dressed doll. Well for a few minutes anyway. Did you know that they can't bend their legs? Like they can't sit down? Terrible. Anyway, the other two were great! Inspiring. Meet Valentina. A Columbiana who restores classic cars. She was very happy with a Liv body. She might be Nadia's next girlfriend, w
