On my SBL Blythe (enchanted petal) the skin-toned parts that hold the clip in place extend well above the edges of the clip, and they don't seem to be very flexible -- I've tried squeezing them together, and they won't budge. If anyone has any tips, I'd really appreciate it. If not, I guess I'm wondering whether or not it's possible to replace the eye chips, eyelashes, and airbrush the eyeshadow WITHOUT disassembling the whole eye mechanism? Thanks again for any help!

I used the pull ring twice to change the eyes, and all of a sudden the cord got about 3/4" longer and it no longer is able to change the eye color. I can still change it manually, but this is very upsetting, as I am new to Blythe and have 3 others on the way... it is discouraging. Especially since this is an SBL doll, and there is a lot of work involved in opening up the head. Has anyone had this issue before? If so, what is it, and how can it be fixed? The cord is still knotted in place to the eye mechanism, and nothing is rattling around Blythe's head, so nothing broke off and came loose. But something is definitely not right. I've been reading about replacing the pull cord without opening up the head, but I don't think it's a cord replacement issue. Maybe something is wrong with the arch? Help please!!!!

I used the pull ring twice to change the eyes, and all of a sudden the cord got about 3/4" longer and it no longer is able to change the eye color. I can still change it manually, but this is very upsetting, as I am new to Blythe and have 3 others on the way... it is discouraging.

The cord is still knotted in place to the eye mechanism, and nothing is rattling around Blythe's head, so nothing broke off and came loose. But something is definitely not right. I've been reading about replacing the pull cord without opening up the head, but I don't think it's a cord replacement issue. Maybe something is wrong with the arch? Help please!!!!

I used the pull ring twice to change the eyes, and all of a sudden the cord got about 3/4" longer and it no longer is able to change the eye color. I can still change it manually, but this is very upsetting, as I am new to Blythe and have 3 others on the way... it is discouraging. Especially since this is an SBL doll, and there is a lot of work involved in opening up the head. Has anyone had this issue before? If so, what is it, and how can it be fixed? The cord is still knotted in place to the eye mechanism, and nothing is rattling around Blythe's head, so nothing broke off and came loose. But something is definitely not right. I've been reading about replacing the pull cord without opening up the head, but I don't think it's a cord replacement issue. Maybe something is wrong with the arch? Help please!!!!

On my SBL Blythe (enchanted petal) the skin-toned parts that hold the clip in place extend well above the edges of the clip, and they don't seem to be very flexible -- I've tried squeezing them together, and they won't budge. If anyone has any tips, I'd really appreciate it. If not, I guess I'm wondering whether or not it's possible to replace the eye chips, eyelashes, and airbrush the eyeshadow WITHOUT disassembling the whole eye mechanism? Thanks again for any help!

I used the pull ring twice to change the eyes, and all of a sudden the cord got about 3/4" longer and it no longer is able to change the eye color. I can still change it manually, but this is very upsetting, as I am new to Blythe and have 3 others on the way... it is discouraging. Especially since this is an SBL doll, and there is a lot of work involved in opening up the head. Has anyone had this issue before? If so, what is it, and how can it be fixed? The cord is still knotted in place to the eye mechanism, and nothing is rattling around Blythe's head, so nothing broke off and came loose. But something is definitely not right. I've been reading about replacing the pull cord without opening up the head, but I don't think it's a cord replacement issue. Maybe something is wrong with the arch? Help please!!!!
