So Logan got her new 25cm body yesterday.

She and Optimus are happy about that.

Usually I'm not keen on having more than one doll from a given maker. I like variety among my dolls. Also, I'm usually not into what would normally be called cute, much less 'kawaii'. But a few months ago I got this little lady, and that cheeky little face is just irresistible to me. She's from Wunderkind on Flickr, and as you can see the details are just wow. She's got that sweet little watermelon mouth, cheery eyes, cute purple hair with ponytails. Too cute. And the customer service was very very good. I highly recommend this shop and its product.

So much so that I want two more Wunderkind dollies! Alex makes a line two smaller than the spool doll, and I'm thinking once she has time for customs again to ask her to paint me one that would look like a human version of my one character, Hormah. And I also want one of her little necklace dolly size ones with a ^_^ face and in a pink and grey colour theme. Yes, I hate pink. But this will be Pink the Minicon's holoform. XD

I'm planning on upgrading Logan. New, smaller body, and nice new hand rooted embroidery floss hair. So her braid will be a proper French braid and in the right proportion to her head. Also, I fixed the new little wooden Jabez so that she can sit up on her own without using her hands for props. And I'm looking for the perfect new body for Kitty, because this polly pocket thing can't even sit up. I'm thinking of using the body of one of those really jointed dollhouse dolls.

Besides that, Logan and Optimus are together now, and right now he's standing and reading over her shoulder as she sits in her chair. Starscream is currently standing at attention with his pigeon. Fred Tofu is guarding the new baby's eyes. Froggy's sitting on Cutie's lap, and Cutie is grinning at me. Nnlarion has given up on the clothes somebody tried to make for him (they were kinda too big, anybody with an MSD want 'em?) and is once more gleefully doing the Kewpie in a diaper streak. Iceydoll, Jabez, and W00t are just sitting there doing various degrees of cute. bittyBlackout's sitting on Ratchet's foot as he watches my monitor, and looking very pleased with her bitty self. Dot and Buzzsaw are talking books while Molly has a snooze on the bed at the top of my monitor. Elijah's on his little bed. And Wendydoll's having a rest in her box for awhile. Oh, and Maeve is insulting me because I'm not getting the money together to have her sent away and finished fast enough for her liking. Tudy brat.

Heh.

I've decided to retire Amy. I have to admit she has too much hair for me, and I have my Amy LJ doll too. So she's moving on.

for a WONDERFUL update! I am dancing.

So yesterday I went through Zellers at West Ed, and wound up buying more teeny tiny Transformers figures than I really wanted. Of the three, it looks like only one is staying. It's a tiny desert Blackout, and I've concluded that she's a chibi. As soon as I got her home she declared she was taking over the desk. Molly and Buzzsaw (Molly's new best friend) laughed at her, secure in the knowledge of just who rules this desk (or the upper reaches, anyway. I don't wanna think of the mutant dustbunnies living around the scanner). Then she stood there overnight and stared at Chucky the squirrel, as though wondering just what the slag that was and what it was for.

Meanwhile, my Transformers Animated Ratchet was having a good long gab session with Logan.

This afternoon Blackout started getting cranky and grouchy and incoherent. Ratchet went and picked her up and brought her to the quiet side of the desk, and he's been sitting and holding her and watching her sleep since then. It's clear that she loves him with all her little chibi spark and that Ratchet, old grouch or not, loves the little chibi too. Heh. Is cute.

Meanwhile, Molly's friend, Buzzsaw, is a Minicon. Minicon means trouble. Especially when he's the first one Mom decides to buy, and the first one to jump out of the ripped in postage package and into her hand when he arrives in the mail. Buzzsaw's travel mates have moved on to live with a friend in Ireland, but Buzzsaw himself gets to sit right with Molly on her own little couch, and is very welcomed there by both the little redhead, and her 'mother'.

Oh yeah, and Hot Shot's over petting the My Little Pony....

Very lopsided, but I find myself bitten by my seeming inability to paint my own dolls:p

It's the same one I've gone to fairly regularly for a few years now. I brought Molly, Leeroy, Little Tam, Cutie, and Wendy. I'd hoped to find a coat for Cutie, and I did; a pretty purple one that came with a scarf. I also bought her shoes and socks from a nice lady who had fun helping me pick the right ones and was not ashamed at all of putting shoes on a little Beanie Kid. She suggested the red shoes because Cutie was wearing the pretty red shirt that Connie made for her. I also got a pair of hi-tops that might work for Wendy, but they'll need a little stretching first so that her pointy big toe doesn't pointy through the end. edit nah, just gonna send them to Icey.

Still liking Ophelia. Been playing mostly with Molly and Dot lately.

I'm still here. Still reading the friends page. Just not been feeling much for talking, though the dolls have been getting their usual amount of being hauled around the house and fiddled with. I even have photos... just not the oomph to post them.

Anyhow, just in case anybody was wondering.
