They are all very cute! I love that blue dress - and the tiny Nikon camera from some of the earlier photos. Where can one get a camera like that?

i found it on the BAY. IIRC i paid around $30 shipped.
pricey, but where else can i find so accurate a 1/6 SLR camera?

Looks like the girls were willing to pose for quick snapshot just before they headed out for an adventure!

improved the fit on Konomi's Maid dress, now it's about as good as it can get;

so, i ended up settling on a look for Konomi that pays homage to my favorite Anime Maid of nearly twenty years now, Mahoro Ando of "Mahorormatic" fame;

Cute new socks - I think this shorter but more frilly style suits both her and her overall outfit better. Glad you found the look you can settle on! It's so nice when changing up little pieces suddenly make the puzzle pieces fall into place

some extensive modifications just made to the Cardcaptor Sakura costume Yuki Nagato wears. originally cut for a vintage TAKARA JENNY "Licca" body,
it now fits more naturally on a modern OBITSU 24/26;

Konomi-chan drastically benefits from an upgrade to the OBITSU BODY 26cm.

Your anime figure collection is both adorable in itself and also "retro-cool" for those of us who remember the earlier days of anime in the States and of anime-style toys and figures, before the hyper-detailed figurines became widely available.

indeed, those were very much the days when Western OTAKU Beggars could hardly afford to be Choosers.
today, we're all spoiled for near-boundless choice, usually limited only by one's personal tenacity and/or how much they happen to be willing to pay.
in any case, speaking of Retro, Konomi does seem to have a fondness
for an innocent, old-fashioned sense of modesty with her preferred choice in Undies;

Her modesty is indeed a refreshing change from the current day trend in anime figures and characters.

i improved the fit of their sleeves considerably, and, in a freak happenstance of bold e erimentalism,
i came to find that Multi's head actually transferred from her reedy old 22cm. OBITSU to the beautifully-full-bodied 2017 24cm. unbelievably well!!!
