Things you never thought you'd say until you owned a BJD v2

"You can't play with my dolls until you're older." My cousin is six.

"Would you stop kicking me? I just want you to stand."

"I'm sorry honey is she staring at you?" My doll is on my bedside table and I want to make she she isn't freaking my fiancé out.

"What 350 is cheap?!"

"I need to buy forceps this week."

 

"Damn it, the paint came off his genitals again!"

 

"I have too many heads and too few bodies"

 

"I was thinking of getting my hands on both, then swapping their boobs."

 

"I'll buy her a body later, I just need him now!"

 

"No I don't want all of him I just want his body!"

 

"She can't just go around armless! Even if it's temporary..."

 

"OMG I got the head off AND RE-ATTACHED IT properly YAY!!!!"

 

"Hm... Do I have anyone who can wear this Christmas ornament?"

 

"I'm running out of room to store all these heads."
"I had to switch out his eyes, the other ones just didn't suit him. These ones look so much better on him."
"Awww, look at the cute Skeleton Baby!"
"I hope someone splits the Head and the Body. I just want the head, she can get a body later."
"...why do you have denim stains on your bits, i just put those pants on you 5 seconds ago."

 

Finally! I can give my character a physical body!

Yay! My baby finally came in the mail!

Only 300? What a steal!

Oh my god, waiting over six months for the product is soooo worth it!

I want to date this handsome hunk of resin!

I wish my doll had detachable genitalia....

I'm so glad at least you understand me. (Said to my doll)

 

"Hey Honey, when I take apart the body, should I organize the parts into seperate bags?"

 

"I just gotta hot glue all her joints."
"I CAN'T GET HIS HANDS BACK ON"
"I need to buy him a new head, this one doesn't fit him."
"Can you hand me that leg I dropped?"
"Oh f*** her eyes just slipped right out of my hands."

 

How about, "DANGIT child, keep your boobs in your shirt!!"

 

"Mind not the beheaded, naked doll body dangling from a string in the bathroom. She's drying"

 

"I think I like these 1880s patterns better than these modern patterns."
"Yeah, she got new eyes."

 

"Nooo I dropped an eye into the gifts bag!"

 

"Wow $100 BJD so affordable"

"Do you mind holding his body while I put on his head?"

"My little resign boy!!!"

"His stomach joint looks like an oval shaped drinking cup-they should make cups shaped like BJD stomachs"

"I'll put his(extra)hands In that box"

 

"I'd probably be ugly if someone took my eyes out, too."

"Why, yes, I did spend $250 just to have a three dimensional flower painting surface. And what are you doing with your life?"

"Why do you even have feet if you can't stand on this table?"

"No, that's undead clown hair, and he did nothing to deserve that. Nothing."

 

"I need more boob sizes"

 

"You just pull the head open and mush things around till they look right."

 

“Oh no I’m painting her so her body parts are being stored in a bag right now”

 

"Her head and body are entirely different colors but it doesn't really bug me." Said while staring at my hybrid.

 

"...then once the body comes, I'll have to check how it matches his head and send off the head to get painted."

 

I just got to jam this wire in her legs, then maybe she'll stand up better.

 

"Her boobs are squishy!"

 

"whoah... kinda creepy being in the middle of a project and being surrounded by headless bodies and having eyes all over the table... Maybe I should at least get some kind of shelve for all the heads..."

 

"Ugh, the blushing keeps chipping off his penis! I guess I'll just have to dip it in the dye vat instead!"

"I wish she'd stop doing Chicken Dance arms." (when my bjds just have to bend their elbows in a chicken wing pose when I try to straighten them out).

I recently saw the initials for South Dakota and mistakenly thought SD (super dollfie) for a moment before it registered as the state initials instead.

"No, bjd does not stand for what you think it does." (your mind might have to go into the gutter to get this one...)

 

"My eyes have escaped Russia?"

"I can't [wash my bedding] right now, I've got doll-clothes all over it!"

 

'give me that head'

 

"Yeah I know, you still need eyes. ...But at least [your female companion] doesn't have to worry about you looking down her [too-small] blouse."

 

"Manfred's a Goth, but he loves his pikachu kigurumi and its Halloween so...."

Ryu

 

'I'm splitting hairs... no, I mean literally.' -while making a yarn wig.

 

"Ugh, I need to get eyes so Gwendolyn isn't eyeless"
"Yeah I have like- three floating heads."
"Can you go put this head in the closet?"
"Please mom? She's only $450 "
And many many more lmao

 

"One of her eyes is broken, but that's ok, since they're the free ones she came with." Talking about my first MSD.

 

What boob size do I think looks good with the body?
Are they double jointed in the knees?
Maybe I’ll change the her eyes now.
My doll needs a new outfit.

 

I've lost one of his peens!

 

Sorry for the mess, we have body parts all over our flat!

 

"Look, I got new clothes! Now your husband doesn't have to be naked anymore!"
"I can't get her head to open"
"I don't have a character for her in my story yet but I need her."

 

"It'll be cheaper to buy them a round of drinks than to buy the reason and dye kits." (When talking about buying new miniatures vs making them)

 

"Why is your elbow fraying?!"
"Oh, come on, don't lose your eyeballs!"
"This hair colour looks rotten on you, we should stick to your old one...."

 

"Oh whoops, I'm makin' her flash me," I say as maneuvering my doll before I had made her bloomers.
"Can I drill holes in your ears or just do glue ons?" talking about giving her earrings.

 

"Oh, my package of eyes showed up!"

Or the more common thing is that I write on a white board what items I have on order or in the mail. So many of them are things like "legs", "body", "parts", and the like.

 

Me as I type "Vinyl male chest" into Etsy...."WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG?!"
I just...wanted...a male chest piece for my doll instead of a female one...

#butnowthatImhere

 

"I need to make sure I buy a pan that his torso will fit into". This was my most recent comment when purchasing items in preparation to dye a large doll.

"My large demon boy is somewhere between China and the UK and it's been that way for weeks now".

"Have you seen my eyes? I was sure that I'd left them on the desk".

 

"48 USD for shipping fee of my doll? That's cheap let's do it"

While

"15 USD for this (human) shoes? That's illegal! Absurd pricing!"

 

Meanwhile, "Only $15 for these doll shoes? What a deal!"

(I've definitely spent money on doll attire that I would balk at spending on my own clothing. Granted, the craftsmanship is generally better on the doll clothing, and my dolls are never going to gain or lose weight or grow taller...)

 

The sheer amount of money I justify spending on these dolls is absurd.
I literally never expected I would think in a million years that I would look at the price tag of a DOLL and think "Well, it is on sale at $500+ which is a GREAT price!"
Between February and March, I spent $1,XXX on dolls alone.
Guess who's also buying another doll head in two weeks...oh...and has another doll body waiting to be purchased. *sigh*

 

Some context: My husband is the game master for the tabletop RPG featuring my doll characters. He unfortunately got off on a bad start with the new Angell Studio body I got (he accidentally snapped off poor Isamu's left hand when he used too much force while helping me unstring the doll).

Hubby: Maybe I should just make it canonical in the story that he lost his left hand so it doesn't have to be repaired.
Me: You are not making life more miserable for the poor guy. He's already booked for resin surgery!

 

*Showing my non-doll-owner friend an outfit I just finished sewing via video call*
“Hang on, her hair is in the way, let me just get rid of it.”
*YEETS wig out of frame*
(≧∇≦)

Another time talking to my husband, “Yeah, I’m gonna have to sand her nips, they look like turkey timers!”

 

"Putin's putting cameras in the eyes", speculation on why shipping from Russia took so long from a half Russian

"If the junks in the way it can always be sanded off", thankfully not in front of my father.

 

“Crap, I think his head rolled under the couch.”

 

"Wow, you have GORGEOUS knees."

 

I love this thread.

My facebook post...which generated more comments than almost anything I've ever put up:

oooo....just got an email from Granado. The boys' bodies are almost ready to ship. Yipppeee!

 

"Burke and Hare body procurement services! We stab 'em so you can slab em!"

I was dropping a body off with a friend for blushing at the time.

 

"Would you stop dropping the top of your head for once?"
" *Sigh*... he's lost his hair again. "
Both things said about/to my doll Vish. For a while his wig kept popping off when I'd try to get him out of his bag, so I got it secured with some white paper tape until I could get extra eye putty/poster tack so now instead of losing his wig he's taken to losing his entire headcap.

 

Definitely "take off the head" and "change the eyes" lmao

 

Me:
"Congratulations! You have just restored a doll's manhood."

Husband (sarcastic):
"Yeah, right. An achievement to bask on."

My LoongSoul guy's "special parts" magnet had gotten loose, and I needed the hubby's help in supergluing it back on. :P

 

"My doll woke me up last night and told me she needs a flute."

 

Dad 'Op caught his head on the door'
Me: *looks to see wig with headcap inside on the ground* to doll - 'again ' *sighes* - to dad as I lean down 'I can get it '
