Marvel x Bishoujo Mystique

I’m normally more of a DC fan than a Marvel fan but I used to read quite a bit of Marvel and well I still have a soft spot for some of my favorite characters like the lovely shapeshifter Mystique.
Marvel x Bishoujo Mystique
When Kotobukiya announced a Mystique figure in their Marvel x Bishoujo line I  immediately went on Entertainment Earth to preorder her (as well as Poison Ivy who has not arrived yet).  My Mystique figure arrived last week and I was able to get a chance to photograph her over the past weekend.

New Monster High dolls- Operetta and Nefera De Nile

It’s been a while since I have posted about my Monster High dolls here, since I just recently got Operetta after looking for her for ages I thought this might be the perfect opportunity for a post featuring them.
Operetta
Operetta is supposed to be the daughter of the Phantom of the Opera, which strikes me as a little implausible ahead and overlook that for now.

Late introduction- Custom Heather Mason of Silent Hill 3 BJD

Shortly after Christmas, I decided to shop for some clothes for my newly acquired Iplehouse Elemental Senior Guardian Claude somehow instead of finding Claude more clothing I somehow ended up spotting a listing for another  Iplehouse bjd. The listing was for a J.I.D Tantiana that was customized to look like Heather Mason of Silent Hill 3 by Leahlilly and she was so gorgeous I could not resist bidding on her. Since the seller and I lived only a few states apart she arrived here literally less than 48 hours after I won the auction.
Heather Mason
Unfortunately, I have not had much time recently for photography or blogging my precious few photo shoots. I took Heather out for some photos a few weeks ago and I am just now getting around to introducing her here.

Arrival- GSC Madoka figure

Puella Magi Madoka Magica is one of the few newer animes that I really enjoy, unfortunately for my wallet it also has extremely cute character designs that will translate into an endless array of figures and merchandise (including Pullips!).
Madoka
I admittedly kind of forgot about having preordered this Madoka figure until I saw the shipping notice for her from Playasia about a week ago,  I really don’t preorder much anymore so it was surprising that I had somehow forgotten this adorable figure especially since I was so excited about it when it was announced. Madoka came in the mail today, since it’s been a while since I have blogged a new anime figure I decided to feature her.

Animadness revisited!

Since I had some time off this weekend I decided to go visit Animadness.
@Animadness
Animadness is my semi-local anime shop they are located in Waltham, MA  they are roughly a two hour drive for me but they also happen to live within close driving distance of a friend of mine so I find excuses to visit often!
@Animadness
In addition to anime figures, they also happen to sell Pullips which is like a dream come true to me but a nightmare for my wallet.

Get- New Evangelion Asuka Figure!

Now for something you have not seen from me in a while, a new anime figure! I went to New York City over New Year’s and stopped at Midtown Comics. In addition to the various comics I picked up at Midtown Comics, I couldn’t help but snatch up this lovely new Asuka figure as soon as I saw her sitting on the shelf.
Asuka
I haven’t been buying many anime figures recently due to lack of space in my apartment. More recently I have been limiting my anime figure purchases to the occasional online order and my semi-regular trips to  Animadness (speaking of which I plan on going this weekend).

Arrival of Dollmore Lukia Coral Mirage Version

I actually have quite a few new members of my bjd family to introduce in addition to the plethora of other new dolls that I still need to introduce but Lucinda is so lovely that well she has inserted herself to the front of the line.
Lucinda
Lucinda is a Lukia Coral Mirage LE30 bjd made by Dollmore. Lukia is kind of unique because she has similar proportions to pullip, with a large scale head and smaller scale body. While I consider her to be a bjd due to her proportions and overall look she has been declared off topic by Den of Angels but my criteria of what a bjd is not quite as stringent as their’s so she is a bjd as far as I am concerned.

First look at Snow White Pullip Collaboration

Originally revealed at last year’s Doll Carnival some pictures have surfaced of a possible future Snow White collaboration via Pullip.net. There was a slideshow that was originally posted there but has since been reposted on youtube, I was so amused by these releases I decided that I needed to take some screen caps.

Arrival of Littlefee Rolly Red Hiding Hood!

I know my I’ve been busy shtick is getting a bit old but I am now working about sixteen hours more per week than I was previously… while it does mean more money, it also means significantly less free time to do anything else.
Hayley
Anyway, unto tonight’s topic My Littlfee Rolly arrived just before Christmas. She did not come alone, I ended up ordering a Dollzone Flower Faerie from one of Dollzone’s past events from Denverdoll too but it already got sent away to be customized. Continue reading

My Little Pony

Sorry for my rather long sabbatical, I don’t really have a good excuse other than I have been very busy lately and had limited time to devote on my hobbies in general. I have a laundry list of posts I’m behind on, including several Pullip and Dal reviews as well as several other things but I decided that I am going to devote tonight’s post to My Little Pony.
Duela & her little pony friend <3
