Out of curiosity, how are you learning Chinese? College course, online class, private tutor, ect?? Are you learning Mandarin? and oh my, these dolls are cute, I like the more teen/mature body they went with for this line. 🥰 I'm going to bite the bullet one day soon and order some bjd from Kikagoods, I've been eying them for ages, especially the centaurs.

yeah i agree with you on the skin tone thing, ive decided to only consider buying any of these if there's at least 2 characters in the lineup with dark skin. sadly this means ill be saving a lot of money because these companies seem to refuse to make any characters with darker skin.

It sucks that they’re not part of the actual blind box set but it’s great that they made them! I just don’t understand why it seems like a lot of these companies started off doing darker skinned dolls and have stopped? I follow them all and lots of doll creators on Chinese specific social media and the comments are always very positive and excited about different skin tones?

Omg I got these awhile back and I will agree with the loose strings are annoying. I think the paint inside of the shoes annoys me the most! I found putting paint sealant helps, but my brush can’t get certain corners. Xie Xing has an alternate colored doll that has tan skin if you’re interested and she’s very pretty. I completely agree the rabbit ears annoy me too. Thinking of hot glueing but I’m worried about ruining the paint. I bought the hidden doll and I will warn she was very difficult to dress. ALSO! Your Yue Mian has the blue and white stripped sock! Lucky!

I was so excited when I found the red one on Ali for a super low price, but so disappointed when I noticed the stringing issues you mentioned... I disassembled her and covered the concave parts of all her joints with a thin coat of hot glue, that I then evened out with my heat gun. I restrung her a bit tighter, and she can now take and keep any pose amazingly well! I didn't even need to reinsert the wires in her legs. I 100% agree that this isn't for everyone, though. I much prefer dolls that pose well right out of the box! Another thing I wanted to note is that I replaced her long heavy wig with a shorter Nendoroid one. I'm not sure all of them would be compatible, but some are! I haven't finished the video yet, so maybe you figured it out, but the ball-like hand pieces are meant to help when putting sleeves on: a way to remove the hands without loosing the elastic string. Going back to watching now... It's so cool to see all the other members of the group! Thank you so much for presenting this type of dolls!

Needless to say was really glad for a video today but these dolls are not for me, so glad you are so honest about the flaws on these dolls. I bought 3 of the first ones you posted the School Days ones I believe they were, the ones with Weirdo in the line, I got the Green, Purple and Black and White dolls. One of the hands came off of one and it took forever to get the little hook in place to get the hand back on, I was near crazy. So yep saving money here, would sooner get a Blythe for 30 bucks off Amazon Japan, they are a lot less stressful lol. Thank you for the great review, you do detail so well.

You can restring, that’s what I kept bringing up - It’s just something I don’t think consumers should have to do minute one, if that makes sense? As a reviewer even if something is easily fixable I need to make sure people know as not everyone wants to have to fix stuff immediately! It’s something I’m scared of doing I will confess… I’m the type to attempt to fix something and then have it break worse 😭

Yes! There’s lots of places to get the eyes thankfully :) But these dolls aren’t made by Kikagoods, they’re made by a different company. Doll customizing is very popular in China among these art toy circles so it is a cool inclusion - It’s just odd to come with such a big extra thing that you can’t use at all rather than using that budget to fix issues with the dolls you actually get! I do appreciate it though as I want to practice customizing but I suspect the majority of people buying these wouldn’t use them

Other companies do this with hair packs, heads for wigs etc. just feels random, if that makes sense,

You are the reason I started collecting this type of dolls. I have around 20 of them, I think. They are definitely my new obsession and I'm always checking the new releases. Maybe they are a little loose so you can actually use the metal bars? If they were too tight, I would assume it would have been harder to pull the string out like that? Now, to my longer rant. I don’t know how I feel about this ones. Seeing them without the headbands made me realize how I much I dislike the animal theme. There are soooo many of this blind box bjds with animal ears that don't add anything. And it's usually the same animals. Feels like companies add the ears cause it's popular or to make the set more consistent as some easy fix. Which end up making them less unique. I like the clothing and the hairs a lot. This was the first series that i saw that had more volume to the hair. But I also feel like they are pretty incoherent. I've wondered if there was some misstranslation or cultural differences that made them seen quite off to me. I'm definitely missing something when it comes to all the crosses. The purple one has a console, cat ears, bat wings, crosses, and spiderweb, and is also supposed to have a freedom/escapism theme? Is she themred around "spooky" animals? If so, them I don't get how it fits. It's a little too much for me, as if there is some story I'm missing or they were throwing everything at her. I would have preferred if the concepts were a little simpler. Maybe just fashion and escapism. The red one is very pretty, maybe the ears don't want to stay cause they know she's cutter with butterfly motive only 😘
