Jack with his purple and green streaked hair. Sharpies are awesome but kind of smelly for colouring fur wigs.

On a side note, so many of my dolls' headcap magnets are falling out, it's not even funny. Hew and Sion's have long fallen out. Nat's was after he came back from faceup. Cail's came out yesterday (all 4 of them, which implies that nobility's glue isn't strong enough for the super strong magnets), and lo and behold, Tiyana's came out today when I was switching her head with Jack's. ...I need to get super glue and glue everyone's back. That's like more than half my crew with fallen out head magnets, of which 2 (Nat and Cail) have severely loosely headcaps that will definitely fall out once I lay them flat on the floor. :/

Caillen's box opening [Esthy Peroth]

It's actually not that long since my last box opening, but I was super excited for this particular one, since I've been eyeing a Peroth since a long time ago and didn't buy him because he was selling for much more than I can afford/am willing to pay for just a head on the secondhand market. Super glad he was re-released. Okay, box opening time :D




The bubblewrap isn't super thick, so I can see him from the start already, the faint NS colour, haha.


Box. Similar clear plastic box to the one Leeke gave me for my Mihael except smaller.


And after turning it around, I saw the "Distant Memory" sticker. Oh yeah, I know I still call the brand Esthy when they're supposed to be Distant Memory now, but old habits die hard. Technically he came from Nobility though, which makes it more difficult to call...So he's a Distant Memory Peroth rerelease from Nobility. Lol.


Can you see his lips?


One layer of bubblewrap off, and I can see the head inside already. :)


Another blurry shot of his lips.


And his neck hole. The resin is the same as my Nobility body. I was wondering if they would use a different shade for Peroth but I guess not. Well, good news for me anyway. Means he can share a body with Nat since Nat's on a Nobility Emotional body.


Hello there!


And a photo of his magnets.


Inside his head.


And with some random eyes (really, the only extra pair of eyes I have)...his brown eyes would be arriving soon. I just need to go collect them from the GO organiser, haha. Oh yes. The resin match is 90% to the Nobility Emotional body I have. Head looks just a teeny weeny bit yellower in real life but you can't really tell unless you are staring, and it's virtually nonexistent in photos, until I told you and now you're probably staring really hard trying to spot any color difference.


And a further shot of him clothed. More for proportions than anything. Caillen is pretty tall as a character though, so he would need a different body, but I should be prioritising Tiyana's body, so he's stuck with sharing for a long long time. Most likely.


And lastly, a close up! It's a bit blurry. I'm rusty from not having used my camera for so long in manual mode.

I'll be busy for a week at least, but I'm going to try faceuping him after that, because he just has so much potential. I keep seeing him as Zeke, but hopefully a faceup would make him more like Caillen (because Zeke is grumpy but Caillen has a smirk, and the sculpt is so obviously grumpy, haha).

[edit]

Since someone requested for it, I got photos of Peroth in Nobility's NS with a 06 Volks NS. The Volks part is the inner torso part so the only sort of yellowing is the yellowing with age. Volks looks pinker and peachier. But they are pretty close so maybe 80% match? 2nd photo is more accurate in terms of colour.
