New J-dolls: Picasso Street East & West
Came home today and had a lovely package waiting for me - my new J-dolls! I wasn't expecting them so soon, so this was a nice surprise.
The dolls are gorgeous and very close to the prototypes, which is nice. (If you haven't seen the prototype pics yet check them out here & here.) The coloring on the purple-haired doll is amazing! She's got turquoise eyes that really pop against her hair color.
I've decided to name them Rose Red (purple hair) and Snow White (pink hair) after the fairytale. Not Snow White - this is a German fairy tale about two sisters and a bear. And, no, I didn't get the names backwards: Rose Red is the wild sister and Snow White is the gentle one, so going by their hairstyles the names seem to fit.
Check out the hair on the purple-haired girl: the back was standing straight up! Um, hello, Jun Planning, that's not a hair style! If she was punk, then sure, but this was more like leftover hair after they curled her hair into the two buns. Poor girl went to the hair salon the moment she was deboxed.
The outfits are so cute, except for the horrid cowboy boots. Ugh! I plan to replace those ASAP. Not sure with what . . . I need to look around and see what I can find.
