    1. Hi everyone!

      I got my first BJD in Tokyo, at a used store. Someone on the BJD reddit kindly identified my doll as a Volks YoSD Eddie.

      My mistake is not realizing the body makeup of the dolls, I just liked the face I didn't realize she was anatomically a boy! I also didn't speak a word of Japanese, although I'm sure the shopkeeper tried to ask me if I realized what I was getting when I also bought her a dress and a full set of girl items…

      I also just ordered Impldoll's Kamara as a birthday gift for myself, and I plan to hand sew flowers onto a dress for her and give her garden fairy vibes.

      Next on my wishlist is Ann from Gem of Dolls, because I love that rockstar/pop star/Kpop, JPop, Mpop idol look.

      Here's my Eddie, now Edwina! Album — Postimages[​IMG]

    2. Hi and welcome :whee:
      Your Edwina is so cute. What a fun experience. She looks wonderfully happy. Glad that you did not let that little resin tictac dictate how you dress her. well, even though you didn't know about it :XD: anyway, it's not so uncommon as you may think to change the gender of your dolls, or crossdress for fun too. I love how you styled her. The sculpt makes for a really cute girl!
      Looking forward to seeing your new arrivals too!

    3. If it really bothered you a craft knife an a bit of sanding would fix the issue. But really, once they're dressed it's a detail that really doesn't matter.

      I have one of my larger girls on a boy body with the "boy-bits" sanded off because the boy body is a better shape for an undeveloped child character than the much curvier girl bodies available in that size.

    5. My husband suggested this to me too, because I was a little sad about my misunderstanding and felt a little bit silly!

      So I'm glad to hear it's normal to change their dressings :) I think I will keep Edwina as she is — the flexibility might be fun as my collection grows!

    6. {GRIN} I used to have two dolls I called The Dependings. One was DorisOrBoris Depending, the other was WilliamOrMary Depending - who they were depended on how they were dressed at any given time...
