I can relate with everything you've said in this video. I do plan to eventually get a pear girl. But all the items I would buy for her would come to a lot. I would probably pay twice the price in the end. But eventually, it will happen. Love her! 🥰 And such a fabulous way to treat yourself!

I also want a mini-me doll. I decided not to commission because it is not fair to ask an artist to "replicate" me and their vision of me may not be how I see myself. I'm just browsing and if a doll looks like me by fluke then it's meant to be. 😂

Haha, glad I amuse! I'm so happy/relieved that the eyelids turned out okay. It was my first time using nail art stickers on top of nail polish, so I wasn't sure if it'd adhere . I did put sealant over top the lids when done. I had also considered commissioning a mini me but decided not to for similar reasons! And we share the same strategy: If we come across one that bares a resemblance, then that's a sign! Until then, Mini Not Me, it is 🤣

I think you did a really good job on your Mini Not Me. The carving looks quite subtle on the face, even the lips which are fuller have a great shape but don't look over done. Really like the eye chips that you used too - I thought that the black ones might look a bit much but they actually really suit her. The main thing that I've noticed with people and their mini mes is that they NEVER look alike.

The idea of face carving terrifies me. I stress out enough even trying to open the Blythe heads as I'm always convinced I'm going to break them. Simone does look a lot more natural after the redo so it's great that you were able to dial her face back a bit. The "gagging" Pixling reminds me of the cat coughing meme, so maybe it's their homage to that?

I don't have a Pullip, but there was one that I've been keeping my eye on, I just don't know if I want to fall down into another doll rabbit hole at the moment. I liked the fact that when Matt was opening her she was winking to the camera! Also the Pullip bodies seem really skinny, I'd be worried about breaking them I think.

I have 2 pixlings so far (Deerly and one of the fairies). I think they are adorable but the bloody potion bottles put me off buying more. I opened them without using the gimmick so I will give the bottles and potion kits to the charity shop. 2 Pixlings are enough for me right now. I admit I would prefer to buy them second hand without the bottle if I happen to adopt more!

I feel cheated, I was hoping for some proper swearing and there was hardly any! I feel like the "unboxings" of these are so over the top, but I guess it's part of the gimmick and I'm sure kids love them. If it was me I would be tempted just to unscrew the top and avoid the whole water/liquid stuff which never goes well imo. As for the Pixlings themselves, I am trying not to get any because I don't need another doll line in my life, but I do really like Catlyn and the one who looks like a deer from the first wave of dolls.
