I'm really loving all the beautiful anime dolls.

I'm afraid I've been bit by the blind box doll bug again. This time it's the Antu Cute Beast Magic series, sheep girl. (You can find sellers who sell the boxes opened, so you can choose which doll you are getting!)

It's weird, when I collected resin BJD, I bought a customized doll once, and bought an artist made dress and when I had it altogether I had a hard time feeling like the doll was mine. It was too perfect so I sold it almost immediately.

But with these tiny little plastic bjd, it's somehow perfect. Like buying a Barbie. I love their details too!

Only slightly related - I am also buying another Starscream figure lol! I'm obsessed!

I had that experience with the Baby So Beautiful dolls. They were beautiful, but I couldn't bond with them, sold them to someone who had a grandma who loved to make her dresses for them, and went back to playing with little junk babies from the thrift store and dollar store and such.

Watch out, on the shows when you got more than one Starscream you had to be ready for collateral damage.

Yes! Something about rescuing dolls makes them seem more fun. Like, it feels like we can give ourselves permission to do more with them.

It won't be too bad with another Starscream. One of them is bigger than the rest. He'll keep them in line lol!

I had even gotten these dolls second hand, but once I got them cleaned up and hair straightened out they were just too pretty and perfect.

Remind him that the smaller ones aren't minions or target practice. XD
