		Congrats!  Drta is such a cutie!  On mine, her hair elastics have pretty much lost their stretch.

		What an outfit! I love it! It's like if those uptight kids at Hogwarts went all goth or something!
	
	
	
They're not dolls, they're action figures!

		Yeah, I love that style a lot and that's why I chose her as the "first" Dal. Her pouty face definitely fit her "gothified" school uniform. I consider myself lucky to had her in such a great shape. 
However, the whole set and the doll smell strongly like old library books. Being out of the box for now on will help fix that.

		It's not uncommon for dolls from Japan that have been in storage to smell kind of musty.  I've heard it's the humidity.  But it usually does o away with a good airing out.

The custom that I kinda put on hold for a while now. I'm kinda intimidated by the face-up I have to paint... 

I messed up so much on my first custom face-up...………...

		Congrats, I love Drta and consider her THE iconic Dal. However, I must disagree about her blush-  it's impossible for Dal to have too much blush!

		I'm realy glad to have found her at such a relatively low price in this perfect condition. And yes, for me also DrTa is  the #1 Dal.

		I love how she's basically a 
goth Sakura knockoff. 

  I really like their take on existing characters.

It take a bit of imagination, but I can see it. Just a bit. It's really not on the same level as Pullip Classical Alice and especially Fantastic Alice however. To truly be a direct reference to Sakura Kinomoto, DrTa would need a little hat.
Wait...
Those platform shoes...
AAAAAaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh…………… 

Yup. Goth Sakura she is!
