Haha! I am pretty sure Fairyland will not mind if we even start considering their dolls an octopuss or a omeba or something -- as long as we keep paying for them! LOLI think the fun thing about BJD's is the fact that every doll has the opportunity to become something completely unique in the hands of the owner.
You aren't locked into some commercially broadcast persona, like with playline characters. Very little characterization is created for most of the Fairyland Line.. a strange gendreless name (I will never be able to figure out where they get these names!) and a few pics act more like a suggestion rather than a true personality.
Its what most BJD collectors love about the genre.[/quote]
So very true with the BJDs. So far Einin is the only one in my collection that I can actually touch. I just love the slightly heavier weight of her in my hands. The Kelly dolls are cute but not really all that interesting. Although I do like the newer Chelsea dolls. Their tiny faces seem more alive than the Kelly ever did. I have two of the Asian Chelsea's and one of the blonde. Once they get repainted they will have much more personality.
Still they don't hold a candle to Einin.
The pen is mightier than the sword.... Unless this is a sword fight.
