Sanhui 145, Heads #1 & #2 w/ movable eyes Comparison
Re: Sanhui 145, Heads #1 & #2 w/ movable eyes Comparison
I try to filter only metalicized, but they still have white
And also yeah i'm interested in feline eyes, but not on an elf doll !
I'll wait for a full nekomusume doll
Moreover, i'm not sure if acrylic is suitable with silicon :/

I'm pretty sure acrylic would be ok with silicone, but of course glass would be nicer and more durable.zaxdoll wrote:Yeah, they are very rich in options

Re: Sanhui 145, Heads #1 & #2 w/ movable eyes Comparison
As you know, I recently received a new 145cm doll and I want to replace her green eyes with an extra set of blue eyes. Should I do the following?
1. Insert a long, narrow, pointed instrument into the corner of her eye socket and gently leverage out the green eyes, being careful of the eyelashes? (What instrument should I use: a long, narrow screwdriver?)
2. Rub the inside of the eye socket with some lubricant? (What kind of lubricant: Vaseline? Sex lube?)
3. Carefully ease blue eye assembly into eye socket, again being careful of eyelashes? (Any tips on how to get eye assembly into the small eye socket? Do I just use my fingers to widen her eye socket?)
More questions: Why is there a TRIANGLE at the end of just ONE of the two eye-assemblies (while the other one is flat)? Is the "triangle eye" supposed to go in a specific eye socket (e.g. left or right)?
Re: Sanhui 145, Heads #1 & #2 w/ movable eyes Comparison
For the eye removal I purchased a small set of needle nose pliers from Walmart. I used some sand paper to polish and smooth
around the outside of the needle points of the pliers jaws so they would not scratch the eyeball surface. See the image below for how I removed
the eye capsule from the eye socket cavity. I spread the eye open a little with a finger and a thumb on my left hand and used the pliers in my right
hand to grab hold of the edge of the capsule tin casing and just pulled straight out. To return the capsule I used my left hand again to spread the
eye open and put the capsule back in just using my right hand ( no pliers). I did not lube the socket. And I do not know why one of your caps has
that triangle, I think mine were just flat. Metricnut

I did not lube the eye socket. Not really sure what I would use if I wanted to. You could try to powder the socket a little to stop the silicone from being grippy.HSP_960 wrote:@Metricnut: Thank you! (Should we lube the eye socket? If so, with what type of lubricant?)
Sorry, no good advise for you.

Can you share a picture of the green eyes? Or if you started a thread for your Sanhui maybe share a link with us?HSP_960 wrote:@Metricnut: OK, I replaced my doll's green eyes with blue eyes. Everything went pretty smoothly. I used a small forceps (instead of needle nose pliers) and it worked well. FYI, the LEFT green eye had a plastic triangle on its backside so I don't know if that means anything. We'll have to ask Sanhui.
I am also interested in seeing a photo of the forceps you used. Could be a superior way to remove the capsules.
I have a theory of why one eye capsule has the triangle. Maybe they use the capsules with the triangle when the cavity that receives the eye capsule is a little deeper than normal. You know, manufactures make stuff with a quality control "tolerance" for the depth of the eye socket cavity.
When they get a eye socket cavity that is near the deeper end of the depth they use the eye capsule with the triangle on it so it is 3 mm taller than the standard eye capsule to ensure a good fit at the top of the eye capsule where it makes contact with the eye lids. No gaps the eye looks perfect! ship the doll! I admit this is pure speculation with no knowledge or evidence to back up my theory.

(To recap: One eye has a triangle on its backside, the other has the remnants of a triangle.)
Re: Sanhui 145, Heads #1 & #2 w/ movable eyes Comparison
My 118 cm has two sets of eyes, and each set has the triangles in the back of the assembly. I have taken them in and out multiple times during cleaning and have used the left and right interchangeably.
Thanks for the forceps idea: i ordered a pair so I can reduce potential damage.

I guess it depends on if the head size is smaller than normal. For my 118 elfie, I have to actually find wigs with smaller caps to fit her head. There seem to be more of these on eBay than Amazon. Sometimes doll vendors have them. I recently got a really nice blonde one from Real Love Sex Dolls (for 100 cm size) that fits very well. If regular size wigs can fit (or fit well enough), then there are tons more options out there.HSP_960 wrote:Any recommendations on where to buy WIGS for Sanhui's 145cm?

The color I got was 14/26S10. But that color does not seem to be available at the moment.
