Of course I have no spare KID boy clothes, so I borrowed Miles' clothes (he's going off to join the Fantasy troupe anyways), and I borrowed Efreet's dark brown wig (he's still wearing his knit hat, so it's not too noticeable that he's bald for the moment). Aaron is looking good....
Last month during Iplehouse's 'Discontinued Sale' I ordered a KID Ah-ra to be a big brother for my Byuri. I thought I'd name him Aaron. He arrived this morning, and Byuri was beside herself with excitement. Nami was there to support her friend, as they helped free Aaron from his wrappings.... Aaron is Special Real skin, and it has a bit of a yellow tint to it, instead of the pink that most of my newer dolls arrived with. But that's good, since Byuri is the original Special real skin with French Resin, and it's much more yellow than the current formula. Aaron is blank, and will need a face up and body blushing, but I wanted to get a glimpse of what he would look like. He came with 12 mm eyes, but those were way too big. Even the 10 mm ones looked too big, and I finally settled on some 8 mm eyes. I'll have to see again once he's painted, which size eyes work best. Of course I have no spare KID boy clothes, so I borrowed Miles' clothes (he's going off to join the Fantasy troupe anyways), and I borrowed Efreet's dark brown wig (he's still wearing his knit hat, so it's not too noticeable that he's bald for the moment). Aaron is looking good.... And now that he was properly dressed, he climbed out of the box to greet his little sister.... I think they'll get along famously.

I had at first thought of getting an Ah-ra girl, but my single KID boy really could use a friend. And who said Byuri had to have a big sister? A big brother would be nice too.

Ah-Ra makes a wonderful boy! Even blank he's a handsome fellow. I'm really wishing IH hadn't discontinued the sculpt. Comments are closed.
