Asian Dolls (Pullip/Taeyang/Dal...)

(Please excuse me for my english , I'm french)

hi everyone.
I'm here today to talk about Asian dolls .
The first question everyone asks is "what is it"
Well it's very simple.



Pullip is a collectible fashion doll created by Cheonsang Cheonha of South Korea in 2003.[1] Pullip has a jointed plastic body (1:6 scale) and a relatively oversized head (1:3 scale), with eyes that can move from side to side and eyelids that can blink. Pullip was first marketed by Jun Planning out of Japan; but the company underwent management changes in early 2009 and, since then, has operated out of South Korea under the name Groove.
Pullip are very expensive 100$ and more. Pullip means "blade of grass/leaf" in Korean. Since the release of the original female doll, other companion dolls have been added: male dolls Namu and Taeyang. Taeyang's younger sister  ,Dal; Dal's best friend, Byul ; and Pullip's younger brother, Isul . In February 2013, a new member of the Pullip family was introduced, called Yeolume , who is Pullip's future daughter. There is also a miniature line called Little Pullip, with 1:12 scale bodies and 1:6 scale heads. Pullip and her counterpart dolls are often customized by collectors, with the most common customizations including wig changes, eye color changes, and rebodying.

the problem is that it costs a bit expensive, it's a real investment. But it's a collector's item.

WOW! More than 100 USD for a single doll?! I mean American Girl dolls are about $99 but they're way bigger. These are smaller than Barbie dolls 0.0 It's like selling a Bratz doll!

They are cute though :3

BJD dolls  (ball jointed dolls) are very expensive. It because of the materials used in the dolls. Pullip's are only one type. There are many versions and sizes. A lot of work goes into them and people paint them and such. Plus they can look very very very life like haha

This is an unpainted one:

This is another example:

My favourite bjd's are minifees. They are adorable!
I love AndrejA's dolls on deviantArt. She even remakes monster high dolls (they aren't really considered bjd's though). She removes their face makeup and repaints them and changes their hair. They end up, in my opinion, so much better looking.

Re: Asian Dolls (Pullip/Taeyang/Dal...)

There's always a stall that sells these at the conventions I go to, but I tend to glance past it because I'm usually busy with photos or finding specific merch.

I'll rememeber to head into one next time.

Those dolls are so cute! My favourite are Minifee Chloe's (from doll fairyland). My only concern is that painting them can get so expensive and that they get old and discoloured from the light. Plus once the paint chips, you have to repaint them and for a good artist it can be anywhere from $40-$80 ,_,
