Hee hee! And she's cheap... relative to most other Pullips... too! I bought a Laura a couple of weeks ago, and like you, after I decided I wanted her I was on edge worrying that she would sell out before I raised the moolah.
They're not dolls, they're action figures!

Yup, I actually used it on Aira's clothes last year. Works great. I have used it with a lot of my dark-themed dolls. All A-OK. I did some darker, richly-dyed fabrics twice.

Everyone uses it. Once they know about it anyway. I might not use it on pleather-y vinyl-y stuff but fabrics are fine.

I color-fasted Lunatic Queen's jacket using this method and it's perfectly fine. I would still be cautious, but it's feasible.

Thanks! I'll do the treatment on Aira's clothes this weekend. When (if) I get Laura, I'll do it for her's too.
My soon to be customised Holly have darkenned fingers but that's it. I read this could be fixed with a Magic Eraser. BTW I wont need any of Holly's clothes so I'll sell the lot. If I can remove her wig without destroying it, I'll throw it in as well.

I bought an opened but untouched Isul MIO kit on eBay last week, and he just arrived! My first Iul, I'm so excited to do his faceup!
I though that clothes for the new "slim" Ken might fit, but... not so much. (Not pictured: the pants pulled up to his armpits under the shirt.) He'll just have to borrow from the Barbie clothes stash for now.

A non-Dal Mocha Mio kit? That's quite the lucky find!
Looking forward your finished project.

I know! Kind of an impulse buy but I couldn't pass it up while randomly scrolling ebay.
Thanks!

I hadn't planned on e anding my dolly family again so soon but I fell in love with a full-stock Dal Tina on Facebook and the next thing I knew I had a little ghost kitty of my very own! <3
Everyone, say hello to Cranberry!

Thank you! She really is stunning and her stock is amazing! I also love her backstory as a ghost cat, so that's what she is. =^..^= *purr*
She also likes ramen!

Thank you! . I hadn’t really liked Dal’s before (and there still aren’t many I’m fond of, TBH), but Tina is so dramatic and distinctive, and I love her makeup, stock (especially that hat!) and the little ‘cat’ kanji in her one eye. She was also an excellent price, which made the decision even easier! ;D

Dunno if it count, but I finally found a cute little bunny to go with my Classical Alice! At a thrift store in a 1.50$CAN baggie with 3 other mini plushies. I gave the spares back in the donation box and kept the bunny. I may customise it in the future but for now, it fit perfectly.

Kanrabat, you're tempting me with Aira now. x3 She looks gorgeous irl.
And CreamPop, your Tina is adorable! If you don't mind me asking, is she a cream white or more grey-skinned?
Those Ken pants actually don't look bad on your Isul, Betsy. Other than being secretly up to his armpits.
