davidd's A DOLL A DAY 2025

They better hope their foes are as bad shots as the average stormtrooper.  They're a little short on armour.

The trooper armor in the films seemed absurdly ineffective. Not only could the troopers not hit anything they were shooting at, but a single glancing blow took them down despite all that armor. By "streamlining" the armor, these troopers depend on increased speed and agility.

Heads for Bodies and Bodies for Heads

.

Pairing heads to headless 1/6-scale seamless bodies often presents challenges when it comes to proper head size and head color. There are a lot of body sizes out there, and even more head sizes, and they never seem to match up.

Pullip Lala - 2009 Comic-Con Exclusive - Limited Edition of 300

.

Pullip Lala, released in a limited edition of 300 in 2009, was my first Pullip doll purchase way back then, some sixteen years ago. The doll pictured here, however, is not that Lala. This Lala is my most recent Pullip doll purchase, just this week, in May 2025!

Out of curiosity, I was watching a listing for this doll on eBay with no intention of making a purchase... until the seller sent a half price offer! The doll is missing the original box and the I.D. card, rendering it of little interest to "collectors," but is otherwise complete and in excellent condition.

Two similar dolls, Pullip Sola and Pullip Sala, were released simultaneously with Lala in 2009, featuring variations on the costume color. Perhaps I shall start watching da 'Bay to see if I can find reasonably priced examples of Sola and Sala. (At present there are a few available, but none are "reasonably priced.")
