I have just found out that the same company that makes Nendoroids has started recently to make fashion dolls (aka BJD).
I have got to admit, I am in love. If it was a little cheaper I would think of getting one asap!
Here's the link to the official website

Ooh, I like it. It's like a Pullip-Dal!

I know, I have read some reviews and apparently she's really easy to customize (wig and eyes come off without screws! and her body is sturdier than a Pullip's). Her joints still need some work and pop off easily however.
I love how natural her curves are, this body type has so much potential...
She's 22.5cm tall.
Here's a few more prototypes that they might/might not release.
The inevitable Alice:
Some original characters, inspired by flowers:

I've seen the impending release of these dolls for awhile now. I'm kind of on the fence with her. Maybe I don't care for this particular version and a later one will scream "must have" at me.
Here's Dolly Insider's review of her:

Cute. I don't love the body shape, but the faces are cute, especially Alice. The first one looks like she just stepped out of a stop-motion movie.

I like that they are a little thicker than most dolls around, I wonder if that would make it hard to fit clothes on them though. I guess they still have that 'high quality' feeling since they are partnering with artists and such to create these dolls, so their wigs and clothes are pretty good. The price for the first one is about 250$ though, which is not too outrageous but not too affordable either. Maybe they'll get a little cheaper with more releases...

These are cute!! A bit too pricey for what they are, though. I like the body shape a lot but I'm not too sure about her face. I do like the one in the middle in the picture of tge flower girls.

I think the next release will be the green one (Lily of the Valley), but I too like the black haired one. They still have a premium feeling to them (compared to most new Pullip dolls), in the quality of the wigs and clothes. And their body is blushed on their knees and elbows kinda like a Super Dollfie would.

Sorry Alice haters, but I am all over that Alice if they release her.

Same here, she might be my very first Alice! Here's a pic of what the first release looks like in real life.
This blog shows how to customize one and what's included in the box.

The blonde is already available, next one should be Lily of the Valley (the brunette with the green dress) this summer.
Here's the one on AmiAmi.

I remember seeing about these a while back when they first started publicizing them. They’re very pretty, but for that amount of money I’d want something a little bit “more.” Maybe I’ll find one secondhand someday but for now I’ll just enjoy seeing other people’s pictures.
