sumdude Posted October 28, 2020 Seems like its bye bye to cortex forever, now that the website has cleared out all their cortex shells and frames. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AliensOfGold Posted November 16, 2020 Is it still going to be used for licensed dolls? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eiko82 Posted November 16, 2020 No idea. I get the feeling that Cortex is gone for both licensed and non-licensed dolls. Living at my place: Rise (DD Rise Kujikawa), Chie (Smart Doll Mirai) and Aisha (Smart Doll Kurenai) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
babylily Posted December 24, 2020 Such a shame! Cortex was a cool idea, wish it had been less expensive in the end! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Starwaia Posted November 13 At the very end of this Instagram post, Danny mentions a "Cortex 2"... we'll see what comes of it, but I have to admit I'm curious if this really will "fix all the issues that version 1 had" or just fall by the wayside like some other projects. Either way, I figured I should mention it at least. https://www.instagram.com/p/CzaQfP7BL9s/ 1 Got less time to do doll stuff and more time to procrastinate. I'll try to be active here more discussion-wise but no pics or news for a while, unfortunately. Being busy sucks. Currently watching BNHA, on season 4 and obsessed! (being in a fandom late makes dodging spoilers an issue tho ) More into Nendoroids than BJDs rn, but I'm waiting for a grail of mine and also hoping to get back into that stuff soon!

The difference between Dollfie Dreams and Heroin? Heroin is illegal, Dollfie Dreams probably should be. “Empty wallets, full hearts.” That’s probably an apt description for the effects of DD addiction Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Either way, I figured I should mention it at least. https://www.instagram.com/p/CzaQfP7BL9s/ I would like to see cortex revived. I wrote a long post about it a few years ago on my blog here, it's a good material. Very sturdy and fun to pose, but it looks like the design he has for his version two arms are already going to suffer from the same cracking the version one arms did, in particular this small piece here. I understand the desire not to have seams up the arms, but it would result in a sturdier forearm build if he did that, or if he extended that piece upwards significantly. Just my two cents. Excited to see where cortex 2 goes, it was a very fun concept and, in my opinion, a very good execution despite it's version one issues. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
