My Melody HEN-NAKO

[Cornflower Blue]

I actually bought a recent release, My Melody HEN-NAKO. It's difficult to get a full shot with those long ears, so I'll be chopping them off in most of the rest of the photos.


A better look at her in the hood and cape.


Her eyelids are very pretty.


Her hair is a darker shade underneath and the top layers are lighter. I would have preferred the colors were mixed in streaks, since it's not that noticeable that her hair has two shades like this. She has a rather crazed stare, which I attribute to the thin, white eyelashes. I'd like to find some more to thicken them up. That or replace them with black ones.


The fur lining in her hood makes it want to slip off, so it's not easy to have it on without fastening it. But it's not like she'll fit on the doll shelves with it on.


Her hair is of a nice quality, although you can see the wig cap through the hair when you view her from above.

Over all, I like her a lot. I want to dress my original My Melody in her original stock and pose them together to get a feel for how different or similar they are.
