Miki's arrival!

Today I happened to have a day off school. Good thing that I also woke up early, the doorbell rang around 8AM and tadaaaaa I got a box!
My Mandarake "I'm only testing" order arrived.
Apparently it worked!

Tadaaa!
Haruka, bring the weapons!

H: Haiii! here comes!

H: Please be careful!

H:We could start studying Japanese with these newspapers.
M: Maybe, maybe not...

H: No pictures, this might be dangerous!
Looks like someone is suffocating there...

H: Hellooo! No worries, we will get you out of there soon!

?: Ummm.... Hi!

?: What a trip! Has anyone seen my shoes?

H: These were in the box with some other packages!

?: Yay, my shoes!
H: What should we do with the other stuff...
?: I don't need them all right now. Just hair bows!

?: Thadaaaam, hair bow magic!

?: Miki is ready to explore!
H: Yay, welcome to Finland Miki!

H: This concludes the very short arrival of Miki! Thank you for joining us!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~





These super cute booklets came with the doll. x) The doll maintenance book doesn't have anything too important explained in it, they show stuff like how to comb the dolls hair... :D But that's cute!
I think I'm in love with Miki. u__u
I might have a thing for red hair. And maids! And oooh red haired maids!
Still need to figure out a background story for Miki. She came from Akihabara, so I thought that maybe she used to work in maid cafe. x) Or she might also be an anime otaku, who loves to dress up as maid! Both would work as a reason for her to wear that uni. But she will get some other clothes too, someday.
Aaand I'm not too good at making stories anyway, so probably her background story won't even matter. x)

I saw Strawberry short cake Sahra in display shelf of Azone shop when visiting Japan, and I liked it right away. x)  I'm super happy that I bought her now!
Otherwise I'm sure it would have happened like with my first BJD "crush" Unoa Lusis. I didn't get to buy one in the beginning of my doll hobby, but ended up buying Lusis many years later. Now I saved myself from all those years of waiting and drooling this Sahra from time to time. xD

Now I try to contain myself from buying more dolls in some time. (Even thought I do want an army of Azone dolls!)
I should concentrate on doing things with my current dolls, and start knitting for them more actively again. My secret wish would be to attend LDoll again this year. Let's hope I can make it!

I'll try to keep updating this blog more frequently, maybe that could be my new years resolution?
Weekly would be awesome, but we'll see... :D


Bonus blooper! These fellows aren't too good at standing! D8

Second Azone! Himeno~


I bought my second Azone Pureneemo second hand -  and from Finland!
Earlier I kinda thought that there isn't too many people in Finland who are into Azone dolls, but oh how wrong I was. x) Luckily!
Thanks to one person in Finnish BJD community, I was directed to Finnish Azone group in Facebook! :D Azone Finland, if someone is interested. There is about ~30 people in the community. Not a huge amount, but still!
These dolls are so cute that they need more love.

I saw the For Sale-post for this doll earlier when I joined there, but i didn't have money untill I got my tax refunds came in December. x) Lucky for me the seller still had this! :D
So this was a Xmas gift for myself? Something like that.
She did arrive to me already in December, but I'm slow like that.




Box opening successful!
I probably won't be using this black outfit for her at all. I like my dolls in more casual clothing. 
The most important part for me in choosing a doll is the face, eye color and hair color/style. x) I tend to just storage all full set outfits lol.

My first Azone Pureneemo was S size, this one is M. I'm not sure yet do i like the M size better or not, but we'll see. So far I like it, but it might be just because it's new and interesting. x)
And OMG I got a package of replace hands in different poses with the doll! 8D Those are great. 
Thank you so much previous-owner-san. <3

I haven't yet thought any name for her. I kind of would like to call her just Himeno, but would it be boring? And I can't do that with my first Azone doll who I bought in parts, she doesn't have any character name to begin with. I have to think about this. But probably Himeno will be a big sister for my first Azone.
Yes, she doesn't have a name either... I'm so bad at names! @__@
Maybe I'll go with J-pop idol names, like I decided to do with my Unoa girls.
Could Himeno be Haruka? :D Maybe. I kinda like that. (Kudou Haruka, from Morning Musume'15)


Hi! I'm Haruka!


Ps. I might or might not be getting my third Azone Pureneemo in near future... 
It might or might not be someone red haired, whose pic was in my Japan post... 
Err, I'm just testing out ordering from Mandarake!! Right??

Cleaning time!

Once again it's that time of the year when I remember my blog! 8D
Great, isn't it. But this time I performed some cleaning!

I went and deleted bunch of old posts. I have had so much changes in my doll collection in 1-2 years time, and I have had this blog since who knows when... I felt stupid to have all the posts about dolls I don't have anymore! x) So that's the main reason for the cleaning.
Kind of a fresh start, with some good old memories from meetups and events.
Also I left some posts that might be informative about different dolls, even thought I might not have the particular dolls anymore.

I'm working on updating all the doll profiles too, please cheer for me. :D
But most importantly I don't have listed those dolls that I don't have anymore in my possession for a reason or another.

Lately I have been playing more with Azone Pureneemo dolls.
I haven't posted anything about my new one here, but I'll try to do that later!
