Me again! Can you switch out the body for obitsu body on Dal/Byul like you do with Pullip?

yep! you can! but you'll want to get the 23cm or 25cm body rather than the 27cm you'd get for a pullip Smile



My melize on a hybridized 23cm obitsu in white skin (keep the dal chest/neck piece and make the rest obitsu pieces [a really simple procedure])
As you can see, the color of the obitsu is a bit darker than her chest/face. This is why most people do a hybrid, because unless they're wearing something exposing where their shoulders are, you usually can't tell the match is that off Smile

you can if you're super careful!
use it on pretty low heat!
The only thing is that there's pretty much no way to avoid damaging the ends :/ so you will probably have to trim the wig a bit after you're done.

I straightened an Alte wig that way.

So I know the wigs on pullips can be changed, but is this an easy thing to do or hard?
And does the stock wig get damaged when being removed?

It's pretty easy to get your doll a new wig. I just did it for the first time and it was no problem. The stock also didn't get damaged at all, either Smile

I'm answering this a bit late for you, but pullips are the size of a barbie, just with larger heads Smile

It's pretty much different for every doll. I've never had too many problems getting wigs off, but I have had little tiny rips in caps and whatnot trying to get them off.
if you can pull up a small section, wedge something in there like a Flathead screwdriver, pry it up a little bit more to be able to get your fingers wrapped around it and then just kind of pull the wig the rest of the way off, that's all it takes Smile

Can it be put back on once taken off?

Of course, you can use stock wigs on dolls after you have taken them off. You just need to fix them somehow Smile

Hehe, well, I've fallen in love with Dals =3 So, here I am with some questions. I am now reading through this thread; sorry if I missed a question in the last few pages and asked it here!

For starters, I know people say it's a good idea to get obitsu bodies for pullips. Is it also advised to get them for dals? And are the pros of having an obitsu body for a dal the same as a pullip having one?
And how durable are they? Like, is it a better idea to keep them away from rain/snow and/or awkward poses, or is it different from doll to doll?
Oh yeah, approximately how high are they? I've heard pullips are pretty much 12 inches high/the size of a barbie, are dals slightly shorter or the same height as pullips?

Sorry for the mass of questions, I just want to make sure I understand everything before I buy them Thoughtful

Please apply the effort to read through these pages the next time, a lot of questions are asked again and again and people don't want to post the same answers again and again on the same thread Smile

You can put Dals on Obitsu bodies, too. But you would want to take the 23cm or 25cm ones instead of the 27cm ones because Dals are a little bit smaller than Pullips. Pullips are about 30cm, Dals about 26cm.
Obitsus are much more poseable and solid than stock bodies and you can choose between hard and soft busts and the size of their breasts. Even making pics in rain or snow is no problem Smile

You really should get yourself a Dal, they are amazing Flirty Pony

Oh, sorry about that, I didn't realize some questions were asked so often Embarassed
Thanks a lot for the answers, that gives me a better idea of what I can do with her once I can get one <3 I'm saving up for a trip I'm taking this summer, but after that I'm planning on buying two, I already have ideas on who they'll be Happy

So read through here and I'm still a bit confused on one point. I believe (correct me if this is wrong) but you can movie their eyes left and right? And blink? Where is this possible? Are these switches on their back? Back of the head? I'm just starting to reallllly get into these and I am deeply considering taking the plung and ordering my first! Happy

the two buttons on the outside are for blinking each individual eye, and then the lever in the middle is for moving the eyes from left to right Smile
