Congrats! Isn't it weird how things like that happen? It's like they know... Evil little resin things.
I don't think re-shelling is too weird. I plan to do that with one of my dolls due to finding a better suited mature sculpt. It's a little bit creepy thinking of it as the characters "spirit" moves in to the new shell tho. It sounds strange, but it makes sense when the character is yours. Very difficult to explain, but I think you might know what I mean~!
