I'll confess that I kinda want to see the Lars movie.
A hobby isn't supposed to leave you wistful, regretful and vaguely disappointed. BJD collecting is as customizable as the dolls themselves. Do whatever pleases you the most, because otherwise, why do it at all? All for the 'Gram Bitches love the 'Gram.

Now if only I could find out more about that Obitsu 1/1 size.

Just want to say before I go to work that I searched it... and I will be randomly laughing throughout the workday* because of it. Thank you. :D

*4chan has ruined me for life, because I just think it's all hilarious.

Bath time might be half the fun to some people. Makes me wonder if the people who care for full size dolls, or realistic baby dolls, might benefit from caring for real people who need help. Or do they not have the patience for it?

There's a mannequin at Medieval Times, or there was, I would bring home in a heart beat. You can tell in the pictures he has a doll spirit. My grandma lived in Las Vegas and we'd always go to MT so it was nice to see him and his twin in their armor watching over every one. There's an old man butler at a junk store that's another one.
