That's how many dolls in pieces now?

I had been dreading scalping my Fruit Punch because of the horror stories I'd heard about and seen. I took my second Disco Boogie to Joey so he could take the scalp off, and I told him I didn't want to try to do it myself since EBL scalps were so hard to take off and I remembered the story he'd told me of him having to ask his boyfriend to help him take the scalp off his CG, and one grabbed the body, the other grabbed the scalp and they yanked like a tug of war until she came apart. See? Horror story. But he popped the scalp off Disco Boogie in no time and told me that yeah, CG was that hard but CB came apart with no problem, there was hardly any glue at all.

So many moons later, I thought I'd give a go at my Fruit Punch, Partsy. Her scalp was going to come off anyway so whether it took me months of soaking and the help of another person or whatever, it was going to come off. I dug her out of her storage and examined her first. There seemed to be a small gap in the back already, above her spring hole. So I pulled a little, then a little more, and bit by bit her scalp came off completely! Huzzah! Happy dance!

I have no idea what happened to her eyelashes, I honestly don't remember them coming out.



Maybe it's compensation to make up for this hot mess:


The stock bangs of my HS. Actually, this is an improvement over how she looked out of the box because at least the hairs are parallel to each other. Out of the box, they flared up and out, like she had her hands on a Tesla coil only it never went down.
