I got a MTM Barbie, so I could switch my HRR06's head sculpt on to it. However, I wanted to try the head sculpt on my World Box AT0203 body first. I was a bit fearful, that I would love the head sculpt on that body, because then I would have to get a second one... and I do! I love the proportions of this body better, and the color match is pretty much perfect to the pale WB body. The only issue now, is that I'll have to get another body because this one belongs to my Very Cool Miss Spetsnaz 1:6 female head sculpt. I don't mind switching heads on my larger figures/dolls to share bodies, but I don't want that for my smaller ones. More so if I want to display them (which I don't really want to ever do with my giant, heavy resin BJD). That's what I want for my tinier figures/dolls, so I need to get a second one for this head sculpt. I am not a huge fan of the MtM Barbie body, the tinier (than regular Barbie) feet bother me quite a lot. I also don't love Barbie's giant headedness in general, but I don't mind it too much on this doll, because she has a stunning face! DX

I got the MtM Barbie for a lot less than retail, so I don't mind just keeping it in-box. I don't own any clothes, nor have I sewn anything for the World Box body yet, so I just wrapped the body in pieces of PVC material I have stashed in my "maybe-i-can-use-this-somehow" pieces of scrap fabrics. I'm lazy, I could have made a quick set of undies. However, I am excited to make some clothes for this girl, once I get her a body of her own. It's going to be a pain in the gut finding one for what it originally retailed for, when tje body originally released last year. T__T;;

The head is a little large on the body, since the body is an actual 1:6 scale (action figure) body, and Barbie is not even close to those proportions, but I don't mind it too much. I do wish Barbie (as a doll line) got a smaller head, but I won't be holding my breath for that to happen, ever!

Anyone else loves the autumn leaves?

Just discovered that #RainbowHighDolls can wear selected Blythe clothing and BJD shoes. Their waists are larger than Blythe of course so bottoms need to be elastic to fit. Still, I appreciate getting more use out of doll clothing for various dolls.

Bild Lilli, the Original German Barbie Doll ♡ - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - With the new Barbie movie coming up I thought I should make some Barbie inspired art. With some digging for references I came across the Bild Lilli doll. After reading up on Lilli, I realized many people don't know that her design was stolen! I thought it was interesting and wanted to do a piece about Lilli. ♡

Bild Lilli was popular in Germany for being one of the first 'mature' dolls, described as sexy, young, innocent, and fresh. In the 50s' Lilli was created for a newspaper comic strip before she became a doll. When Lilli got popular from her comics there was a demand from many women for Bild Lilli dolls and was later marketed for kids. With Bild Lilli, kids could dress her up in various fashion (much like Barbie).

The owners of Mattel had taken a trip to Germany where they saw the Bild Lilli Doll. They were enamored by Lilli and decided to take one back to America. Later on, in America a doll was put on the market who looked much like Bild Lilli, though her name was Barbie.

What are some of your favorite dolls from canceled shows/webisodes? These are just some of what I have. It's definitely hard for me to let go once I know that I'd have to buy them second hand. . #fashiondoll #dolls #monsterhigh #barbie (at Los Angeles, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cqa7gWbJuW8/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Out n about with Smart Doll Imagine around Atami - a city located on the eastern coast of the Izu Peninsula in Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan. It is known for its hot springs (onsen) and scenic views of Mount Fuji and the Suruga Bay. Atami has been a popular destination for tourists for centuries as a hot spring resort town. Many of its ryokan (traditional Japanese inns) have been in operation for over a hundred years. Imagine was released yesterday, together with her back story. She is a fave of mine and represents one of the reasons why Smart Doll exists today. Imagine will be back soon - but for now, here is the story of Imagine. ———————————— I’m a word that holds immense power, Yet no weight or mass to devour. I can bring to life what’s not yet real, And make the impossible seem ideal. I can take you to places far and wide, Show you worlds that exist inside. I’m used by dreamers, artists, and poets too, To create new things that are fresh and true. ———————————— Imagine is a reminder of the boundless potential of human imagination. She represents the incredible power that resides within us all to create, innovate, and bring new things into existence. By bringing to life what does not yet exist, Imagine shows us that the impossible is not always unattainable and that the limits of what we can achieve are only constrained by the scope of our own imaginations. Moreover, Imagine reminds us that imagination is not merely a whimsical pursuit but rather a valuable tool that can be used to explore new ideas, overcome obstacles, and create a future that does not yet exist. Through the power of our imaginations, we can attract the possibilities and opportunities we desire, bringing them into our lives and making them a reality. So, whenever you feel trapped in a rut or pondering your next career or business move, take a moment to sit back, gaze at the clouds, and let your imagination run free. Remember the power of Imagine and the vast potential of your own imagination to create the future that you desire. With imagination, anything is possible. #tokyo #smartdoll #anime #manga #doll #fashion #3dprinting #fashiondoll #design #madeinjapan #japan (at Atami, Shizuoka) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqKj_diy8CW/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I got myself a few more trading dolls this year. I purchased them last year, bu they just got here yesterday (thanks to Amzn slow-poke service, and the obvious Holiday season slowing everything down during these times). I am in-love with the NAGI Exchange Student Series Lanlan Lang boy I got! I really wanted one of the three boys, and I got one! I feel so lucky, I rarely get any of the ones I really want from trading toys, whenever there are few that I would rather not get. Those are usually the ones I end up getting! Lol! With this series, I really didn't want to get any of the girls (they are beautiful, but I rather own mostly boys, if the series has a mixed release). I wish they had made this one an all boy series, but they made the "plainer," everyday looking one the all boy series, instead of these one. Regardless, I am thinking of getting the other two boys from this series, because Lanlan is super cute, and I love the look of the other two as well!

I also got my first Penny Box Antu Tidal Secret Language Mermaid Series doll, she is stunning IRL, I got "Shimmer." I imagined these dolls would be mind-blowingly beautiful in person, more so because I have seen what the previous series are like in person (I own four centaurs and one OG PB Antu release). These mermaids are incredibly beautiful in person, I am so glad I was able to get one. I am not sure if I'll get more, I wish the one I got had a jellyfish on her hair (I love jellyfishes!), but otherwise she's so beautiful! I love her, but I already knew I would, regardless of which one I got from this set. They are all so pretty. (:

I also attempted to get a Paula Purrfect from the Nanana Surprise Minis, because I've had no luck finding her in stores. Unfortunately, I didn't get her. I wish I had known they would lower their cost, I would have gotten at least four at the time. I'm probably not meant to have her, but I'll keep trying! T__T;;
