Thoughts?

I personally don't care for him, or his body. ^^ He looks kind of like a ripoff of Hound, but Hound uh, looks way better. (he looks like Heath+Hound to me, and Heath is my aboslute least favourite doll.)

I'm also not a fan of heavy body blushing AT all, so that could be a factor. But yeah. I'm kind of... dissappointed?

I was sooo the one who said it looked like a Hound Heath hybrid. razz

But yeah... His body looks almost like they copied some of the joint structure from their male Dollfie dolls instead of the Super Dollfies... He just looks strange. It's mostly in the elbows though. That and his chest joint juts out which looks odd. It's like they rushed him... I dunno. I'm not really a big fan of Volks dolls to begin with. But before that's always just been a personal thing. I just don't tend to like their heads or joints that much. I still respect that they are nice dolls though and that the quality is good. But this guy... I dunno... I can't even apreciate him on a craftsmenship level.

Yeah, but I was so thinking it.

And I agree with you. The only volks dolls I really *like* are Michael, and the U-Noss, but the U-Noss wasn't even sculpted by Volks artisans, so I don't really even count her as a Volks.
He does seem rushed. He's just... odd looking. It's almost as if the normal sculptors weren't the ones to work on him, and they used a different team. Apart from the head, he doesn't even look like a Volks.

That's a good point... Your right his face looks Volks but the rest of him doesn't. The body almost looks like it was made by an amature sculpture who'd been looking at Dollfies and CP dolls... I agree about U-Noss also. But you already know my views on the awesomeness that is the U-Noss doll. And I'm not that big a fan of Michael in general. Valerian reaches new levels of cute and squinty though. 4laugh

U-Noss should be worshipped. Especially their boobs. Oh my god I want mine to do that! /TMI

Yeah. He just doesn't look like he should. I'm really curious to see if it WAS a different sculpter, or if the current ones have lost their touch.

I'm a sucker for Michael though. First doll I fell in love with. (and I still have the occasional "Megu is soooo cuuute!" moment. biggrin )

Well... If you stood outside during winter in a thin shirt with no bra on..... xd

Well... It might be a different sculptor. Either that or they might be trying so hard to look different that they've started to fail. That isn't exactly an uncommon thing in the buisness world... What bothers me about that though would be it would mean Volks is going even FARTHER down the path of buisness over quality and the joy of BJDs.

LMFAO! Oh man, It's snow time!
Actually no. razz Although I'm curious as to what'll happen with bind job + san fransisco + seifuku + winter. My boobs are going to be like... "ARRRRRRRRGH~ CONFUSION!"

Oh well. I hope more information is released on him. As much as I don't care for him, I'm curious. They'll atleast list the sculptor of the head (Have they ever listed the sculptor for bodies, anyway?) and we can see who thought of the Hound-Heath lovechild. Who was on top?
I'd also like to know how tall he is. Seeing as he's Volks, he must weigh a TON.

as a curiousity, i asked my boyfriend what age he thought the SD16 was. he said anywhere from 14-18 years old in his opinion.
i found that interesting.

he looks like an 16-18 year old to me, but he looks like one thing definitely to me: a guy. id get him but his face i know with a blond wig and the right facepaint will remind me of someone i dont want to be reminded of.

i like his body though, its very male. they could have done a little less blushing on the back. hes expensive. but i like his joints - they most likely will look great in person. he most likely will post fantastically and i really like volk's resin.

not this headsculpt for me, but maybe another sd16 in the future for me. the only thing i balk at is the pricetag, he IS rather expensive for even this hobby.

every time i see an image of him i imagine him doing the deep voice of david bowie and saying "you just shut your mouth" like at the beginning of the family guy movie xd

Boob confusion. They wont know which way is up! lol

Even though he's from Volks if he IS a different sculptor he might not be that heavy... I guess we'll have to wait to find out. I'm curious if they'll be doing more than one SD 16. He's the first but he may not be the last. Maybe he's just a prototype? *hopes* I dunno. I guess I'm just holding on to any last shred of hope that that's not a finished body.... -_- Even though it's blushed... and up on the final page. I hope the leg joints arn't that bad...

"Who was on top?" I'd say Hound. He's taller. Even if he DOES look like Nagare...

Or out, or sideways... my poor chest!

Well, Reila is fairly heavy for a girl. Val is also the chunkiest of my dolls. The SD13 boys are INCREDIBLY heavy, so if the SD16 is the size, he's gonna weigh a lot. (it's something about their resin that's just heavier, I believe.)

I'd like to see a female SD16. Hopefully the girls will have less muscle on them. (which I think looks really odd on him... and his upper arms just look really mishapen.)

Size doesn't matter! I think Heath would scare poor Hound into submission.

From what I've seen the Volks dolls are thicker. Which makes sense considering they're the originators. Other companies originally had to come up with ways to use less resin.



You say size doesn't matter... but I think Hound has certain attributes that could change Heaths mind wink

True, true. And because you won't say it... I wonder what he uh... looks like... Yeah...

Val has a really wide back. It's kinda odd.
Volks clothes are also heavy. I think everything they make is heavy. XD
