Dolls you wish you had or kept

[DollyKim]

Is there a doll you always wish you had or one you did have and no longer do? What about ones you wish you didn't get?

Sometimes I wish I could go back in time and tell myself not to give away Darci's friend Dana. I'll always miss being able to get one of Eve Studio's tarantulas. As for not playing with them there's a bucket full of action figures...

Wish I kept
Possibly my Cat-ra and She-ra action figures that were thrown away, some days I suspect Helen and Erisa were channeling them in terms of looks. Erika will never admit to influence by Glimmer (Never!!! She claims the Lady Lovely Locks connections since I never own Glimmer. Jack claims he has no connections to He-man, his looks came from another 80s cartoon dude).

Wish I had
I wanted Lady Lovely Locks and Lady Raven Waves badly (said Usagi Sisters claim influence) but never found them. Ended up with Barbie and the whole Tri-Barbie vs Plushie(The OCs that are here have strong 80s roots since they were around back then) wars.

Frankly 80s cartoon is probably the reason why my female dolls have funky color hair.

My Fairyland F65 Roke. I needed funds so I sold him recently, because I knew he'd go fast, and he did. But I didn't want to sell him. I wish I'd have held onto him and sold another doll, instead. Especially since I recently saw him back up for sale by the same woman who'd bought him, with his beautiful faceup completely wiped. If she wasn't charging more than I'd sold him for, and if she hadn't destroyed his perfect faceup and was keeping the eyes I'd sent with him, I'd make an attempt to buy him back, especially since Fairyland had discontinued his sculpt.

I'm just glad I DIDN'T sell the custom-made kimono and discontinued horns like I'd originally planned. I'd probably never see either of those again. >__< I hope one say I'll find another Roke on the MP, and a seller who might possibly be willing to trade as opposed to sell. *sighs*

I wish I had kept my old Rainbow Brite doll. I hear that Hallmark is going to re-release a copy of the original, but it just won't be the same. It won't be mine.
I also wish I still had my 2 childhood Barbies. They went on to a better place: the lady across the street from me would fix up old Barbies and give them to kids in the hospital. But...sometimes I wish I had held onto them.
Oh, and the Madame Alexander Christmas doll I had in the gorgeous blue and silver dress. She always look great during the holidays.

I wish I had a Dollzone Alpha. Why did they discontinue him before I could aford him? I also wish I had a Dollshe Saint.

I wish I had the biggest Eve Studios cat in gray. I keep looking at him, but stringing him.....*shudders*.

It's hard for me to part with anything... but I do wish I still somehow still had my Holly Hobby and brown-haired lap sitter. They were so cuddly.

I bought a second-hand BW Puki Pukisha Al Hikmat Hidayah off the MP the first year I got into BJDs. I sold him to raise funds for another doll and I've regreted it ever since.

I wish I had kept a couple of my Disney dolls. I had Megara Jasmine and Esmeralda and at some point got rid of them both. They would most likely need a rebody if I got them back as I really cant stand dolls without elbow or knee articulation now. I also wish I'd bought more Bleedung Edge Goth dolls as I've just learnt they're discontinued I'd kept putting them off thinking they'd always be around.

Not sure if you'd consider it a "reasonable price", but a May is on Yahoo! Japan Auctions right now with five days remaining or a Buy It Now price.

The site of that link, Shopping Mall Japan, is a proxy/deputy service that I sometimes use. If you bid/buy through them, you'll end up paying a commission (in this case $15) plus the seller's shipping to SMJ's Japan warehouse, plus shipping from their US warehouse to you. (This can really inflate the list price of a very cheap item, typically doubles the price of something in the $20-$40 range, and increases expensive items somewhat less severely proportionate to price.) You also need to make an initial deposit with them, which (if you use PayPal) secures about 5 times that amount that you can then use to bid; depositing $50 would give you a shopping limit of 27,500 yen.

EDIT: fixed minor grammar error, changed phrase for clarity.
