They’re mostly simple expressions doll collectors hear in the course of their hobby activities – but imagine a non-doll collector eavesdropping while you and your doll friends sat around over a glass of wine at some chic bistro…imagine, indeed…
Is no one checking quality control anymore?
Wow…a friend just PM’d me with a NRFB BJD with a set of MIB FBR and 2 IT OOAK repaints for a steal…OMG!!!
Would it kill them to use something other than shower curtain fabric?
THUD!
I’m hoping someone can explain a hoo-hoo stand to me.
What’s your favorite head sculpt?
I’m only interested in 1:6 girls; the 1:4 bitches are just too big.
Made in Qo’noS?
Believe in the Power of Play; Love is in the Details; Share the Dream; Truly Outrageous; We Girls Can Do Anything, Right Barbie?
I’m looking for a 1964 Blonde Bubblecut with creamy skin in a red Helenca swimsuit.
She doesn’t look anything like the promo photos.
Gentle heating will allow you to pop her head right off.
They would make beautiful girls if they just would make the move to plastic.
Why should I have to enter a lottery to BUY something?
Green ear?
They’re beautiful earrings that won’t cause green ear.
They’re usually signed on the butt.
There’s nothing quite like new dolly smell.
It took hours to reroot her hair.
What?
Are you more interested in Wendy before or after she got that little moustache?
It’s clearly been ripped off from that designer who ripped off Gaultier.
I can do splits, just let me know.
When I opened the package, her head was rolling around in the box.
The outfit number should match the number on her body.
Wonder Woman is supposed to have SILVER bracelets.
Those accessories work perfectly for the 12inch girls.
Well, she told me to take it out of the box and let my daughter play with it – the nerve.
My Betsy exploded.
Excuse me?
I believe there must be some conspiracy to keep folks out of their inner circle.
Reborns freak me out.
Math class is tough.
Only fashion dolls matter.
Frankendolly options just aren’t for everyone.
Speak for yourself…
Yellowing bodies are the new greasy arms.
Screening is a much better way to prevent wonky eye.
I’m willing to part with her for a reasonable price.
Speak for yourself…
Clothing is really tough to get over her man-hands.
It’s really easy; just open the hole with a hat pin.
She got buyer’s remorse and the thrill was gone.
Ken just can’t compare to Billy.
Oh, oh…that one’s a stainer.
I’ve always found that boiling water is the best to get her hair to behave.
Keep calm and debox.
She has a little kickiness, but her face-up is spectacular.
I just don’t understand how they can keep getting bigger, am I reaching for the stars by asking for a little head? I don’t think so…
Oh..and don’t forget Tommydoll was nominated for the 2015 #DOFDAs Best Fashion Doll Blog – I do so hope you’ll vote for me – but even if you don’t, just VOTE!!!
Hilarious! Love the post.
Thank you!
Oh Tom, I love this, it really amused me and let me tell you that’s quite some feat first thing on a Monday morning! Best of all, since I got my Tyler Wentworth and started looking into the whole BJD scene I am even beginning to learn some of that lingo!
As a side note, I will fess up, right here and now, to the fact that I collect reborns as well as just starting out in fashion dolls. I wonder if this makes me a freak of nature or unique? Or just an oddball! 😀 Thanks, as always, for the great post.
Thank you! And you collect what you like…let no one tell you otherwise…but it does help to have a sense of humor!
The last comment was the best! LOL. I am sure there are more comments out there we can help you with. ~~XXOO
I am VERY sure of that…LOL!
OMG, I’m rolling on the floor here in upstate NY on a cold, snowy day! Hoo-hoo stand, indeed! oh frackin funee
Thank you!!! Stay warm!
I can’t believe that you mentioned WINE! The entire reason for having hobbies such as doll collecting is so that we DON’T use a mind-altering drug to relax and unwind, have “fun”, enjoy life, etc. Can’t you see that? I have spoken up against alcohol for years online, writing thousands of comments, tons of blogs, even a book about why we shouldn’t use alcohol!
So don’t drink wine, then.
