Yuri and Kumi were characters that premiered in the Nu.Fantasy line back in 2008. Red Riding Hood Yuri and Wild Wolf Kumi. They were exclusive to the Japanese Integrity market, and they debuted the sculpt that is now used for Eden and Lilith. Yuri and Kumi originally used the Misaki body, which is somewhat similar to the Poppy body but with smaller breasts, that's why the sculpt sometimes looks a little too small in comparison to other Nu.Face sculpts. Later that same year, for 2008's The Heist Convention, Lilith and Eden debuted as new characters using the Yuri/Kumi sculpt but in a Nu.Face body. Yuri and Kumi only had another release with Snow White and Rose Red and dissapeared until now. Since then, Eden and Lilith are the characters associated with that sculpt, so I guess Jessy decided to give Yuri and Kumi a new sculpt for their revival. In regards to this collection, I do like the dolls, but, Nu.Face is already kind of a neglected line for Integrity, so, why gave it a spin off when it barely has any releases anyway? But I'll still wait and see.

Novae is literally the Charmed Child Ayumi head with a palette swap.

Yuri and Kumi are Eurasian twins in the Nufantasy world. I think Jason Wu or Von decided to reuse the sculpt for the Nuface line and give them their own Nuface Identity, which are Lilith And Eden . Jessie decided to bring the Nufantasy twins back but with more asian features, hence the 2.0 sculpt

I've been trying to pace myself so I didn't order the Misty Hollows Poppy though she is beautiful. I am happy I won the Be Mine Poppy. The packaging is very cute. It reminds me of the Valentine chocolate hearts my dad would buy my mom. I didn't bother reaching out the dealer I have purchased from in the past for the NuFace collection, again trying to pace myself. Yet entered for Kumi. That fur coat 🤩

I was lucky enough to secure Novae and Yuri, thankful to my friend for Yuri because he was able to secure one for me! I already ordered a cute dress for Yuri Yumi and Kumi used to share the face sculpt that Lilith and Eden had, but now they have their very own!

Probably an unpopular opinion, but I actually didn’t care for any of these dolls. But honestly, that’s a good thing! I sprung for so many of the dolls from Stilettos Out that I was grateful none of these spoke to me. I personally love that not every doll is for every person…let’s the chip in my debit card rest from time to time. My one wish is that from the remaining 2 dolls to be revealed that I want at least 1. The club dolls this year haven’t really excited me. I want something that feels grand and exclusive, and we’ve gotten Poppy Parker in long sleeve tops and shorts. They’re cute, buuut…I want more. Thank you also for talking a little about the IT dealers. When I started collecting, the dealer situation was confusing and sometimes felt incredibly sketchy. Anyone who has visited some of the websites knows what I mean. 😂

Yuri and Kumi came before Eden and Lilith. They were created for the Japanese market. Integrity then used the same sculpt to create Eden and Lilith but they’re not related. Jessy wanted the two sets of twins to be distinguishable from one another so he created this new sculpt for Yuri/Kumi.

I ordered Return to Misty Hollows Poppy Parker as well. I have never seen a doll with that skin tone with such stunning gray eyes. She is phenomenal and I love her. I also entered for Demonic Strings Kumi. Perhaps I'm the only one who thinks this, but she is giving me La Sombra Alejandra Luna vibes. Since she sold out at the convention and I couldn't attend, this is a nice consolation prize and I'm really hoping to win the right to buy her. Like you Greg, I want to see an Adele Makeda (a few actually) in the new club year. And some male dolls. Currently I have only four - Sergio Silva from the Palm Springs collection, Bellamy Blue and Tenzin Dahkling from the Cold Carbon collection, and Power Workout Tenzin Dahkling. My girls need boyfriends, ☺️. Congratulations on securing Angelic Yuri, I love her too but Kumi is the one for me. There isn't a single thing I don't like about her. ❤️❤️❤️

I geeked out because I said the SAME THING about HiHI Puffy Ami Yumi! I secured Yuri, so fingers crossed for Kumi 🤞🤞🤞 I’m hoping for something really high fashion for the FR club doll. Kyori really impressed me last year, so I’d love to have a big gift set.

Love your commentary. Kumi is my girl, I really hope I win her. I am an old rocker and love the aesthetic.

You can try to trade Kumi in case that you win her for another doll that are you looking for.

The Misty hollows Poppy I’m just not interested Misty hollows the original is a grail of mine,so I’m not interested in the new Misty hollows especially because of the eye color. The Valentine’s Day poppy this is when I feel like integrity toys drops the ball with some of these releases the Valentine’s Day poppy is a great idea, but why doesn’t she have a date. like why didn’t they give us Poppy and a male doll when male dolls hardly are ever released this was a perfect opportunity to give the male dollcollectors, a male doll I’m disappointed in this new nuface collection . I’m sorry it’s my opinion, but I’m not interested in the Novae doll I’m super disappointed . Why are we getting another outfit in lavender from head to toe on a nubian doll ,back to back? Thats weird.And this sliver /blond looking hair on Nubian skintone SMH ,Storm white hair whould have been more interesting i agree.I’m just disappointed.I don’t get these after thought references ,where /what about her says Ai Model? But I Love the face and sculp for her in this skintone. Love Yuri but not the fashion. She comes with extra high heel feet but no high heel shoe option, smh.

Great Review So far the NuFace/Tokio Sound Dolls are not for me. Sounds more like a gimmick. I did like Yuri, but unable to get her via: Sideshow Rollout Disaster. Oh well more coin$ $aved and I predict we will be seeing Yuri very soon. As of Poppy, I love her. However I am tired. I passed on many Poppy’s this year. Anyways, let’s see what FR Doll comes up. Hopefully it’s a doll I don’t have. Keep up the good work. 😃
