She’s lovely.

The more you and neon post your Azones, the more I can see my self falling down that rabbit hole at some point.

Miu is one of those facial screenings that seems to lend themselves so well to others in the Azone lineup. Though even with same facial sculpts, it is still easy to see them all as individual characters, if that makes any sort of sense.

The 'majokko' line in general hit my liking of the goth aesethetic very hard.

I feel like you're right about that. Somehow they just know when to happen. And yeah, I'm still delighted at having her!

I feel like this is where I should start the ONE OF US chants...

120. T is for Theodora



Aka the Wicked Witch of the West from Oz: the Great and Powerful. It's very odd to think that this gorgeous lady was my first wicked witch doll , or that I've managed to gain a small collection of them. One that I will always look for new members of.  Anyway! 

Yes, Theodora is the name the given to the character in the movie, I think it's meant to be a deliberate contrast to Dorothy and an attempt to be clever. Honestly, I'm hit and miss on the movie but loved the doll line. Funny how that happens.

She's so classy. I absolutely love her stock.

It is a truly grand figure!
Did the witch have a name in the original Baum novels?

A very classical witch.

Her stock outfit is really fantastic, though I think it's finally starting to show hints of age - I saw a little bit of peel.

Actually... no, I don't think she good. The Good Witches of the North and South received names, but the Wicked Witches of the East and West did not. Maybe lack of name is why they were so wicked.

A big fan of the wicked witches in this household

121. U is for Usa



My little green Petworks bunny doll! Still in her Hatsune Miku outfit because it looks really good on her, and really, that's all the reason needed. I really love the shade of green she is, even if I can never seem to get it to come across as properly in a photograph.

Both lovely green beings, very different.

That’s one of the reasons I named Theo that. He’s the Dodo, which from my Dr Who Companion knowledge, is short for Dorothea. And the masculine version of that is Theodore.

Usa-pyon! She's endearing and kinda badass at the same time.

The Petworks bunnies always looked more like flying saucer aliens to me. That is such a perfect shade of "Martian green."

Kinda wish I'd bought one when they were still available. A "Martian green" one.

Usa looks like maybe she could be Theodora's mascot?, or sidekick?, or something... ?

Ooh, that is a good way to pick a name!

Aww, thank you!

I think these ones turn up on Mandarake fairly often - and I've seen on eBay as well... myfigurecollection may also be a good place to look? 

I like the stylised look of them, it's fun.

Ooh, now there's a fun thought...

122. V is for Victoria



My full sized Hujoo Freya bjd! Victoria is enchanted by the lights and sounds of the stage, and would love nothing more than to tread the board. Unfortunately, she's kind of stuck watching over all the little ones. 

The top she's wearing there is actually from a Sparkle Girls set. That range seems to fight her - mostly - really well.

Wonderful colors in this one! And I'm getting ice pop cravings. What kind of performance would Victoria give? Singing (or something else related to music), acting, stand-up comedy, or something else?

The rainbow top looks great against her white skin.

I can attest from my time working in schools that a major component of working with young children is actually "acting." Victoria can look at her chores as a chance to hone her skills.

She looks very comfortable and classy.
