    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.

    Long delay between posts, I know.

    I received Revoltech Haruhi – Bunny Version from my Mum for Christmas. How cool is that?

    Also, Crappy Cat from my Husband. Also incredibly cool.

    All my time at the moment is invested in two new websites I am working on, plus the Japan 2010 itinerary for March/April. It’s going to be a blast!

    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!)

    For ages, I’ve wanted the Yoko Revoltech figure. Several weeks ago I was lucky to acquire my very own, at a very good price.

    The Australian dollar has such a poor exchange rate right now, that it’s very hard for us collectors to get anything at a half way decent price, but Yoko popped up her cute little head and headed home to my place.

    This Revoltech Yoko comes with quite a few different sets of hands, making her even more poseable than I would have thought.

    Also, she has two different faces, to enable you to use her smiley or angry emotions to their best advantage. Her rifle is massive, and can be held in her hand, or propped on the ground for precious shooting :)

    Unfortunately, you’ll probably have to search evilBay to find her, but it’s worth checking out Hobby Search (see advert to the right) as well!
