Woohoo sig Lagoona is here! ...And holy glue seepage, Batman!
I've washed it a few times..Hoping it's a little better when it's dried.. I don't want to have to whip out the adhesive remover..
She's so pretty! But her eyes are so much more "fish like" than any other Lagoona.

How do you guys deal with the tabs in the dolls' heads (that connect the head to the backcard)? Do you pop the head off and pull the tab out that way? Sand it down? Cut it as short as possible? How do I save myself from these things?!

I just cut it short and push it all the way inside the head.

I'm embarrassed that this course of action never occurred to me.    Thanks!

No worries!  That's one of my pet peeves actually though, I hate not being able to get it out all the way. Drives me especially nuts on stuffed animals.

I usually try to pull them out with pliers. When that doesn't work, I cut them short and push them in.

Nail clipper i find work really well to cut it shorter and then push it into the head

So I'm not the only one who does that? Yay!

Your teeth are all apparently stronger than puku's pliers

Seriously. LOL. 

[Yurusumaji]

Seriously! I have already gone one-on-one with this one bit that would not push into the head or be pulled out, no matter how I went about it. Finally took SunnieBunny's advice and took some nail clippers to it. It's not pushed in, because it refused, but it's even with the hole it's in, so ha!

Another question. Do you guys take your dolls out and about with you like BJD hobbyists tend to do with their dolls?

[MelodyMistress]

Oh yes, I do. After all who knows when you will find the perfect place for a photo shoot!
