Yes for the record I am a huge dork...
but their freaking DRAGONBALL PLUGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
my question is what material do you think these plugs are made out of and I've only been at 0g for about 2 weeks... would whatever these plugs are made out be ok to put in my ears, or should I wait longer??? either way I'm ordering these as soon as I can... THEY'RE AMAZING!!!!!!!!

Re: MY DREAM PLUGS :O
They look like acrylic. Which isn't good for fresh stretches. (And I don't like wearing for long, attracts ear cheese D: ) But they're double flared too, so you'd need to wait quite a while before you could get them in anyways.
There are plenty of people (on etsy and otherwise) that make picture plugs from whetever picture you want. In steel eyelets, which is much better for ears. Mostly double flared, but I'm sure you could ask for single flares (possibly a teeny bit more), and then you could wear them right away.
I quite like mystic metals http://www.etsy.com/shop/mysticmetalsorganics

Re: MY DREAM PLUGS :O
I'm on a bit of a budget... and these plugs are pretty sweet. this is more of my inner dork speaking. I'll wait as long as I need to, til I'm fully healed up to put these in (I'm OCD about my lobes so no worries there... I religiously do sea salt soaks and massages.) I just love how these plugs look. I will look into finding similliar plugs in a safer material though. thank you for the advice 

Re: MY DREAM PLUGS :O
What size are your ears? Here's a guy who will do any image on steel as long as its 00g or higher.

8g lobes
Re: MY DREAM PLUGS :O
Fucking titties. I was a DBZ nutcase when I was growing up, still am a bit, and I'd totally rock those. Anyway, yeah, most likely, they are acrylic. I'd still wear them, but just when going out or whatever, and pop back in steel or Earskins when I got back home.
2g lobes, want to be 0g
Re: MY DREAM PLUGS :O
I'm at a 0g, and I'll just wait it out til my ears are healed up. I'm still probably gonna buy them, just cuz 1) they're only $3.50 and 2) THEY'RE FREAKING DRAGON BALL Z PLUGS <333333 lmao. I'm OCD when it comes to my lobes anyway and i do sea salt soaks and massage them religiously on a daily basis. I'd just buy these for special occasions anyway, such as playing an old-school DBZ game or watching the show
not entirely serious on those being special occasions btw lol. but yeah I wouldn't wear them as a plug I'd put in all day and for just every day use. thats what Kaos Softwears are for (Still need to buy those) and my normal plugs i got with my tapers are also for.
and yes I am too. It was the best show ever growing up. It'd be even better if they made like a 4 star dragon ball plug
or if your a pokemon fan... pokeball plugs

Re: MY DREAM PLUGS :O
also it lists on the website the plugs are made out of a material called "Resin"... anyone familiar on that material?
Re: MY DREAM PLUGS :O
Resin is a material used a lot in model building. I'm not sure how it would work as jewelry but I imagine it would be similar to acrylic.

Re: MY DREAM PLUGS :O
To be honest... these plugs seems to be more trouble then they're worth. I think I'm just gonna try to buy Kaos Softwear plugs tomorrow instead (not putting them in yet, just want to have them so when my ears are healed up I can put them in, and I don't think I'm gonna be able to get up to the mall to buy them for a while so I might as well do it now... only thing I have to do now is pick out the color and such when I get there.)
Re: MY DREAM PLUGS :O
It sucks having them and wanting to put them in. I've been at 10g for a week, but really want to put my kaos in! It be a waiting game fer the both of us now!
