New Dolliehs!

Hi guys - just thought I'd show you all the latest additions to my little collection

Group shot, this was taken a couple of weeks ago. I love the new juku couture doll (thanks kittyasauras!) she's so kooky and poses really well considering she isn't an obitsu. I'm not so sure about my new hujoo wings though, I had planned on making him into Daniel/Dream of the Endless but I'm not really getting any inspiration with him yet.

To my newest doll - well ish, as you guys can see I finally worked out what to do with my 25cm obitsu. I didn't like her head v.much but I really didn't want to wipe her faceup since I new she'd stay blank - so I bought an elf head to put on her body instead. Then I got an idea and she became my first neko doll, and now I adore her! - However elfie arrived so she's bodyless for now...

Elfie - a modern day/semi-futuristic warrior. Ex-military, just out of the service (in my head), she was going to be my rpg character, but developed into this feisty one instead.

(See her various weapons... also curses you can barely see the large sword she's holding in the photo above...)

The modern rather nasty looking swords and daggers are hers, along with the gun. The katana actually belongs to my OC timelord and the dagger belongs to my pullip but she stole them and is insisting they belong to her now... Though the timelord then pulled out his sonic screwdriver, and lightsaber and threatened to melt things so she gave them back. (Lucklily she didn't spot his pistols...)

And finally my modern circle barbie - I've got to admit she's the only barbie I've ever liked/wanted (EVER) as a kid I'd get given these dolls that couldn't pose, and had hair that would get tangled. I was an action figure kid really but as you can see I've grown into dolls (kind of the reverse of what normally happens heh - however I tend to stick to collectable action figures of characters that already exist if they're available, since I figured they're probably closer to how the artist imagined than a doll I'd made could be, though I might just cave and make an obitsu Vincent Valentine at some point, his play arts figure is getting lonely on his shelf)

Yeah they're all EDAs (I only need to get around to getting the eight doctors and my collection is done...) that bookshelf is so full, it's double shelved in most places, with books stacked on other books...

Color me jealous! I need to go on the hunt for more, but most of the ones I've been looking for are out of print. :/

I managed to get mine when various people were clearing out their whole collections, so they were mostly pretty cheap. For once evilbay was pretty good. (Notable exeption being Interference books 1 & 2 )

Heh - well I haven't even considered PDAs or Virgin books yet, some of those fetch ridiculous prices!

Yeah, most of the ones I have and are looking for are Virgins. Some of them I only know by story description, which makes it even harder to find.

I've been using this place to find the names of books - it's extremely comprehensive but there are categories and plot descriptions.
