davidd's A Doll A Day 2019

[davidd]

The doll, er, figure is a bit too realistic for my tastes, but she's still a beauty!

Yeah, I am not overly keen on them, actually, but these figures are "part of the scene" at the action figure forum of which I'm a member, so I sort of succumbed to peer pressure. I'll try some photos with them, and if I ultimately decide they're not for me, I will have no qualms about sending them on to new homes. Unlike, say, Maudlynne or Bratz Jade, I do not feel any emotional attachment to these figures. And perhaps curiously, considering that they are sculpted to appear more life-like, they do not seem anywhere near as "alive" as do my more toy-like dolls and figures.

The uniform does appear really well made. I would say this is gonna require requested tailoring, really. Though graphic prints would work, if that's the type of thing you wanted - like Mattel's occasional tie in fashion pack that is superhero or other media related, well that could work.

I have read that some Barbie outfits work well on seamless figures. And yes, graphic prints would probably work better than "real details." It's a matter of fabric thickness. I should probably try using just the uniform top or just the jacket rather than layering the pieces.

30 December – Smart Doll Cocoa Mirai

Addie adds to her post-apocalyptic diesel-steampunk ensemble by borrowing a hat from Pullip Eos.

Oh, yeah... Cocoa Mirai's name is Adeline, of course shortened to "Addie."
