Hi all. I received my first BJD yesterday, Alice Kuonji (Dollfie Dream Sister), who I managed to buy new/unopened for a pretty reasonable price from a Japanese online retailer along with another outfit which you can see below (Mage Azerin). She is wonderfully cute, and I have had great fun dressing her up and posing her for photos. Unfortunately I only have a smartphone camera in my possession, and none of the setup to take amazing shots like those I have seen on this forum and other online blogs.
I thought I would join this forum, as I am completely new to the world of doll ownership and this seemed a good place to start for a beginner. I'd love to get a few more outfits for Alice in the future, and maybe a new set of shiny/metallic eyes that capture the light, however it seems somewhat difficult to find where to get these things outside the Volks store. I have been reading around, and staining seems to be a major issue with Dollfies, thus I am a little apprehensive in buying clothes for her from non-Volks sellers and thought I may find some answers about which manufacturers or 3rd party designers are appropriate here!
Anyway, it is nice to meet you all. Wishing you all the best from Australia!
