No, not yet, though there are several I’ve got my eye on, mostly Dollfie Dream collaborations like Sakuya (Shining Blade), Amamiya Sakura (Sakura Wars), and various Idolm@ster girls. Azone does a great job too, though I like their original characters more.
There have been a few series I’m now interested in after seeing a doll, though. Nisekoi, Idolm@ster Cinderella Girls, Xenosaga. . . . It’s fun to think that dolls can introduce us to great series too.
Hey River,
Couldn’t have said it better!

There are so many series, wish there where more hours in the day to consume them 😆

Yes, Pullip Souseiseki from the manga series Rozen Maiden.
Hi Sara,
That’s cool to hear that Pullip Souseiseki captured your heart without being familiar with the series ❤️
Thanks for sharing with us the character doll in your collection that you weren’t familiar with! 😊

I haven’t. There were chara-dolls I liked, but I always feel weird owning a character I don’t know, and then telling the fans that no, I have no idea, I only liked the doll, sorry…
Usually, I don’t even go for dolls of characters I do know and like, there are exceptions to the rule, but there are things that make me enjoy chara-dolls less than other dolls, so I don’t buy them. Mostly, I never feel like I can do the character justice in my photos, I can’t stay true enough to the character.
Another reason is that ideally, I’d like to have the whole crew from the show/book, and that rarely ever happens, and then every time I look at the one(s) I have, it just makes me miss the other characters.
Hey Neon,
“I have no idea, I only liked the doll”
That’s totally me 😂 😂 😂
You bring up an interesting point of view . . . I never thought about how not having the entire crew in ones collection can make one miss the other characters. 🤔
