  • More Information: For more information about Vista Bento heads, click over to Vista’s website for a detailed post.
  • Customer Service Questions: If you have any questions about this head, it would be best if you looked at the designer’s profile, his name is Vista Barnes, to see how he prefers to be contacted for customer service issues as I will probably not be able to assist you with that. You can also join the Vista Bento Head’s Friends inworld group to get assistance from the other group members that also own Vista products.
  • Other Vista Female Bento Heads I’ve blogged in the past: ZoeDiana, and Lia.

I will be doing a live stream about this head later today, watch live on my YouTube channel:

    Looks good. I have the Lia one. Do you think that the skins being created for Genus are better?

    Great video as usual Strawberry. I have the male version Gerard for a couple of years now and really love it. It is nothing similar to anything else on the market and very customizable.
    The only thing I noticed, and it seems to be the case for the Emily head, the neck cannot be colored…. !! or am I missing something. You cleverly wear a necklace or collar to hide the difference between the head and body skin color but this is something I am having a lot of trouble accomodating, even with the neck options that come with the body (Adam).
    Is there another option?
