>too far

No such thing. And even if there was, dolls wouldn't be it. Dolls are awesome. "Too far" would probably be somewhere around kigurumi or fursuits.

They do make a good judge of character, though. They helped me filter my friends down until the only ones left were the ones like me. Creepy lolicon weirdos, autismal sperglords and shy introverted cat enthusiasts. Who all either like my dolls or tolerate them for the sake of being bros. The friends I have now are worth taking a bullet for and it's my daughters I have to thank for that.

Which is strange because unless you are after limited edition DD heads, Volks and Obitsu are usually quite comparable in price. I like the Obi50 body better as it's known to have more flexible limbs, but it almost goes without saying that Volks makes better heads.

Collecting anime merchandise is already too far to begin with. What a waste of money.

No pictures good enough to share on a public forum. I don't have a camera that isn't also my phone and I was made redundant in February when my town's only manufacturing plant shut down and haven't found stable work since.

Have a photo of my Misaki, but be advised it's a complete potato. She's quite adorable in person.

I wish I could take photos like the ones in this thread and know just how to use the camera to flatter my girls rather than embarrass both them and myself. Even if I had the camera and the posing ability, my town is an oily dirt bowl. I'd need to drive several hours out of town into buttfuck nowhere to find a good outdoors location for a photo shoot.

VOLKS International website. Standard model Aoi and Yukino are both listed at 45,000JPY for a complete doll with painted face and a night gown so they aren't naked.

Normally I wouldn't spoonfeed but for some reason this page is difficult to locate.

I wish I could easily take them outside but as I said my town is heavily industrialised and also a complete dump so unless I want a concrete bridge with graffiti, a burnt out train car, and a dark-skinned individual committing an offence for a background, I need to drive out of town. I also lack a carrier for my girls. The last time I did it I used an old baby chair.

And yeah, I know all about shitty lighting. She normally lives in a display cabinet in my living room due to the amount of dust that gets everywhere here, but it's also the darkest part of the house as it has a tree over the only window so photos in that room never turn out. I put her in the afternoon light thinking I'd get, at the least, a better picture, but I got this instead. My pet shitlord thought it was hilarious.

I can dig cool designs like that It's just that one weird fear. I'll admit they are deffinetly top class design wise, which is why the eyes unnerve me. They are too good.

usually doll eyes creep me out, but these aren't so bad
probably because they're anime stylized

that said, the idea of owning and maintaining and taking pictures of a doll creeps me the fuck out but also sort of fascinates me.

Azone International eyes are basically painted on so they don't really look like eyes. but Doffie actually have eye balls that move in sockets

They live in this glass cabinet normally due to the amount of dust in my house. I live in the country with farms all around so there is dust literally everywhere. It also protects them from my cats.

I think a good percentage on /a/ likes dolls but simply can't/doesn't want to buy them. They come up in buyfag threads every now and then and it's basically treated as a terminal stage of buyfagging.

I for one simply collect cute pictures and toy with the idea of eventually buying one. One day. Maybe.

Not hand-picked I presume. Ripping flickr accounts in bulk?

As long as you space left in your home to collect more shit, is ok.
When you can enter your home because a merchandise wall blocks your door, it is not ok anymore.

Goddamnit, I now want to buy a doll more than ever.

>>113325365
As long as it makes you happy is fine. And what >>113333591 said.

That one is quite nice. Just another family member.

These are unbelievably cute. I usually find dolls creepy, but looking at these is quite soothing compared to when I see Western or Victorian dolls.

What is the name for these? How expensive is the hobby? Do you guys just go into "no fucks given mode" when you photograph these in public spaces? I'd go red in the face!

the /jp/ doll thread has a guide. The hobby is more expensive than figures per piece, but people tend to collect fewer dolls than figures over time, and it depends on the size and type of the doll and the accessories.

And most of those photos aren't ours.

Is anyone else fucking terrified of these? They just look so lifeless

When you have nowhere to sleep.

You wouldn't just leave one doll sit in your shelf by herself all day, all alone, would you?

>>113338444
First they're somewhat unsettling. Then you get used to it. Then you start seeing cute aspects.
Although i'm a robo-fetishist, so the uncanny valley has always been quite shallow to me.
