I have rebodied Miya into a 1/6 scale.

Yes, that's my hand. Shut up.

The reason I rebodied her is twofold. For one thing, this doll looks more like the original character than the MT Tristen did.

Image

Other reason: I found her boyfriend.

Meet Joe Asakura, aka Condor Joe from Gatchaman, my oldest anime obsession which continues to this day.

He's a first wave Disney John Smith (from Pocahontas) on a first wave Ken Fashionista body, with a costume made by yours truly. I want to make him a better jersey later, but till then, heh.

I recognize her as a Barbie friend but which one is she?

Although I thought the earlier iteration of Miya(e?) was cute, I understand the need to find a doll that better fits the image you have in your mind's eye. A few of mine have suffered similar identity crises before I settled on a final look.
