J-Doll - Sunset Blvd Review

I couldn't resist buying this J-Doll! She is Sunset Blvd, who I named "Sunny", and I bought her for $50 off of eBay. I try to avoid buying things off of eBay -- I've only done it once or twice before -- but I made an exception because it had the best deal for this doll.
**WARNING! I took pictures of this doll without her clothes, if that offends you please do not scroll down!**



She looks like a mermaid! (:


Her shoes are cute, but don't fit very well.

Finally some nice looking underwear, lol.

Sunny and Kurhn Summer Fairy.


 She's my favourite J-Doll so far. (: I love her light blue mermaid hair. And the best part? Unlike my other two J-Dolls, this doll has a Pullip type 4 body!

Sasha - Pippin Review

This Sasha doll is named Pippin and she has the "Lala" rabbit type head. She was $90 on pullipstyle. I know it's hard to tell that Pippin is a girl, but she is. She has the type 4 Pullip body. Honestly, I was hoping Pippin would be a male doll because there never seems to be enough good-looking 1/6 male dolls. The only ones I like are from Monster High, Ever After High, and sometimes Barbie. I like Taeyang, but his head is way too big. I wish they had smaller-sized head versions of him. ):






Pippin came with a fan.


This is a really beautiful doll. (: I knew when I saw her that I needed to have her. She did arrive with a few problems, but nothing that couldn't be fixed. When I opened her up from the box, her entire arm fell off (from the shoulder, elbow, and the wrist joint)! Then I noticed the middle hook that holds her vest together was broken. It's alright though, because I quickly put together her arm again and it was fine. I'm planning to fix the hook later. It should be pretty easy.

Sasha - Cecil Review

I've bought the most interesting dolls recently. (: First I'll show Cecil, the doll that uses the "Kiki" cat model. She was $90 on pullipstyle. Yeah, I know! Expensive, but so very worth it! Once I saw these Sasha dolls I knew I just needed to have at least one pair. I'm still debating whether or not I should get another pair of these dolls in their normally peachy white skin.

 The box art. It was just too pretty not to take a picture. Especially since I don't normally keep boxes.


Cecil has one green eye and one blue eye.

She came with a handheld mask.



I was actually iffy about getting this doll when I saw her pictures. I love all the rabbit type dolls and I was more interested in getting them over the cat type. I knew I wanted Pippin though and it didn't feel right to not get the matching golden cat doll. Of course, now that I have Cecil, my opinion has changed completely! She's beautiful and I think I may like her more than Pippin.

J-Doll - Picasso St West Review

 **WARNING: I've taken pictures of this doll without her clothes on. If that offends you, then please do not scroll down.**

Here's my second J-Doll, Picasso St West! I bought her for $40 off of Amazon. I've taken to calling her "Pica". She was originally the first J-Doll I bought, but she arrived later then Mariya. I absolutely love her pink hair and her face-up. (: When I first saw her I didn't care for her clothes, but now that I have her in person I've grown fond of her attire. It's cute! But I'm still excited to make new clothes for her.

Such a sweet face!


Her shoes stay on better than Mariya's.


Here I've taken off each clothing article one at a time to show you just how layered this doll is!






Not the most attractive underwear. (^^)"

Pullip, Pica, and Cleo from Monster High.
Pica has a Pullip body type 3, I think, and she can fit my Pullip's clothes. But even though it fits, it still looks too big and clunky for her.

J-Doll - Mariya Luiza Review

Mariya in box.
 Meet my first J-Doll, Mariya Luiza! (: I bought her for $30 off of Amazon. J-Dolls are pretty much Pullips with smaller heads and are named after streets that are known for high fashion.

With headdress.





I'll edit more later when I have time! I was so excited about getting her that I just HAD to post her pictures now. :D

EDIT: 31 May 2014
Her hair has gotten a little messy. I don't think it's good quality and it's not soft, but it's still very pretty. Her shoes keep falling off and they're loose on her. Maybe if I made her some socks they'll stay easier or she could just go barefoot. You can't see her feet under her dress anyway.

Pullip - Alice du Jardin (pink version) Review



I recently bought my first ever Pullip doll from pullipstyle for about $100. I've never spent so much on a doll before, I'm so used to the $20 ~ $30 price tag on Monster High dolls, but I think she was worth it. There was also a mint version of this doll available and originally I was going to buy that one instead, but then I saw this pink version and fell in love. I liked the bangs on this doll better -- the mint one's bangs had more of a straight cut -- and I have a thing for dolls with antique pink hair. The mint one is beautiful too though and if I ever have extra money to spare I'll go buy that one as well. I'll make sure to share photos when I do!
**WARNING! I posted pictures of this doll without her clothes. If a naked doll offends you, please do not scroll down!**



Alice du Jardin!
Close up of her outfit.

Isn't she lovely?
Front and back view

The cuffs come off.

 

Like all Pullip dolls, she has switches in the back of her head that can shift her eyes left and right and switches that can make her blink.

I took off her jumperskirt.

A close up of her dress without the blue jumperskirt.

She has a petticoat underneath her dress and wears white fabric underwear.

Her stockings are uneven. I wonder if it's supposed to be that way...?


I didn't want to take off the bow because I don't know how to tie it back and make it look nice! lol

Body comparison to Monster High Cleo

Foot comparison to MH Cleo. Whoa! Pullip's feet are small!

Pullip's rabbit plushie.

The headband falls off easily.

It's brown, but it's showing up black on my computer. Sorry!

I love everything about her! Her joints are great and I'd love to use her in a stop-motion, but sadly I don't think I'll be able to. Since her head is so big, she falls off the saddle stands that I use for my Monster High dolls during stop-motion. Even sitting down she falls over!
So, now she'll just be a pretty decoration in my room and I'm alright with that. I love her anyway. (:
