Show your new Doll!

It's November so...

MERRY CHRISTMASS!   



Got Pullip Carol from Mandarake. Brand new for only 5K yen! I still had to pay 3K yen of shipping, but I paid the price for EMS and she came just in a week. It would have made no sense to save 1K yen only for her to arrive after the Holidays.



Carol is an original T1 Pullip. Meaning her body is full of screws, her torso have that weird "zombie slouch" and her eyes can't remain closed. And like all T1 Pullips, no stands at all. I managed to balance her but it took work. She came with paper work and her only accessory is an actual CANDLE! Said candle came with a notice written in Japanese that must say "Do not light this thing. EVER."

I thought she would be a Pullip that I'd play dress-up with over the seasons, but her rubbery boots (no stickiness) have hardened over the years and are thus unremovable. So I cannot remove the pants. I'll get for her a big dress that will cover her legs and a new hat for the off-season. Most likely one or two Etsy purchases.



Carol have a cute face and an actual decent face-up for a T1. Too bad that her rooted hair (another T1 thing) aged badly and look more like a dead roadkill than anything else. But with a hat, it's not too bad.



It's not even half of November but eh, time to get into the Holidays spirit!



Slightly in advance Happy Holidays everyone!
