    Dolly Addiction

    0

    A little over two years ago, I started building an online forum for dolly lovers. The intention was to create a community where people all over the world could come and talk about their doll collections, give help and assistance to each other, trade and share their experience.

    Due to circumstances of the time, I decided not to make that forum live.

    Things change, and two years is a long, long time. Now that I’m about to trip off to Japan and my own collection has expanded, I decided it was the perfect time to launch the Dolly Addiction Forum.

    No matter what kind of doll you collect – plastic, plush, resin, vinyl – you are welcome at Dolly Addiction.

    Dolly Addiction - a forum for doll collectors around the world.

    Thank you to the great friends and supporters who have encouraged me. Your support and continued participation at the Forum will see it grow into a large community.

    New Acquisitions

    Love Mission Custom Blythe

    Love Mission Custom Blythe

    I’ve been acquiring quite a few new dolls and other items lately. Even though I meant to go on a bit of a spending diet, it seems that dolls, like food, are things I just enjoy too much.

    Along with the vintage black Barbie Vespa from a second hand store, I managed to pick up a NRFB Love Mission from my favourite Japan seller.

    Adding to the Sunshine Holiday, Ashlettina and Merry Skier I picked up earlier last month. Oops!

    Work in Progress

    1

    Again I find myself apologising for the incredibly slack way I am posting to my website.

    The project I am working on until November is taking much of my time, but I am doing some work on this website – you just cannot see it!

    I’ve commissioned one of my favourite Japanese artists to design the new logo for KLJ and PK. I should have first round to look at in a week. It’s not cheap, but his work has been inspiring me for some time now. I even own one of his necklaces and recently he sent me a pack of stickers of his hand-drawn characters.

    I’ll reveal more of his secret identity when I announce the new logo!

    Also coming up, the re-launch of the store. There’ll be a stack of Re-Ment (not blind boxed! so you get what you want) and even some Azone Pure Neemo items (Flection bodies!) plus the usual eyechips and customising materials. The exchange rate has improved slightly, but be aware that it’s still not back to where it was.

    Junie Moon for Takara have announced a swathe of new Blythes, and I’ll update you on all of those too as soon as I have time to write the articles!

    Stay with me, I’ll be back soon with better updates!

    Japan 2010

    1

    So, I’m planning my next trip to Japan. I was hoping to go in April 2010 as it iz mah burthdai, but it’s also the most expensive time of the year to travel in Japan, thanks to the beautiful sakura being in bloom.

    The only things I know for certain so far:

    1. 2010 is the year;
    2. Tokyo, Kanazawa, Osaka and Kyoto are on the agenda;
    3. I will visit Nakano Broadway at least 5 times in the month I wish to stay;
    4. I want to stay for four weeks;
    5. I will stay with Sakura House in one of their apartments again;
    6. Husband will be with me;
    7. Kitty will be missing us terribly.

    As you all know, I collect Blythe. But I also collect other bibs and bobs – we have a nice collection of Bearbricks, I love Kaws and BOME figures. I think Figma and Revoltech are awesome, and I love Pure Neemo Advance (Standard and Flection) doll bodies.

    Other than Volks in Akihabara and Ikebukuro, where else shall I go? I already know to spend time in Akiba and DenDen Town scouring out the ReMent and miniatures I so love, but where else? What else?

    Suggestions please.

    (I use Japan Post EMS to ship what I buy back – works out cheaper than excess baggage, and the Post Office here in Australia holds onto the precious cargo for me until I can collect it – awesome!)

    Mega Busy

    0

    Starting a contract full-time has sadly left this website a bit neglected. I hope that over the next few weekends I can upload the many photos I’ve been taking, and some news on the Blythe and Azone Pure Neemo range.

    Also some new Figma/Revoltech type display stands are being released and I’m in the midst of doing a little write up for you all.

    My new contract means that I’m on a computer all day, planning, resourcing and designing a massive new website, which means when I get home I’m rather sick of staring at a monitor for the day.

    I have the design bug of course – always happens when I get too busy to do anything about it – and I did a little layout today of what the new KLJ/pk.net may look like in the future.

    Also on the agenda, a trip back to Japan in April next year. I want to plan it around my birthday, but also to coincide with any good dolly shows or toy events going on. So if you know of any, please let me know about them!

    I’m also on the waiting list to get two more of my Blythes customised by the amazingly talented Shinji Anai, and have a Doronjo x Blythe and a Tweedly Do on the way to me (both NRFB). How lucky am I?

    Hope you are all getting lots of new toys and planning your trips to Japan. See you on Twitter!
