Well, I'll be a -

Volks released a new 2.0 version of the Dollfie Dream ddf-3 body, called the DD 2.0 base body (ddf-3). Everything except the arms was completely reworked, exterior sculpting-wise.

More pics showing off posing at the link, and damn. What an excellent refinement in my eyes. I love how they got rid of the gaps by moving the chest seam up, and the thighs fill the leg openings fully. I also really like the new shape with the slightly larger hips. To me, it looks more natural, and more like a resin BJD, to be honest.

Oh, after my latest dyeing adventure, I'm back to being in love with vinyl dolls. Those shells can really take some heat (unlike resin).

Being a doll collector/ restoration artist is so wack dude, like I just gave A bunch of little Naked people around my bathroom sink or in a box in my corner. Some of them have heads, most don’t. One Right now has a needle sticking out of the top of its head, stabbing new hair into it. It’s like being a really messed up serial killer but with less blood, and legal issues

A Present For the Lads!

Paradox received a gift from my mutual @mooncustafer. It's a rug that looks like Tris and Alex must have purchased it on one of their legendary travels. Mooncustafer made it. The stitches are so incredibly tiny.

G1 and G3 mesh better than you would think.

I just think that their outfits mesh well.

Neon Frights Twyla had some of the worst bangs I've ever seen on a doll, but she was so cute I had to get her and reroot her! 🔮🕸️💙

I cannot stress enough that this might be the most important doll I've posted about.

Meet Jafra, the Palestinian fashion doll.

Information on her took a bit of digging, but as far as I can tell she debuted in either December 2015 or January 2016. She was initially available for purchase through her website, and after a year began to be (and still is as) sold at Hamleys in Jordan, UAE, Dubai, and Abu Dhabi. In 2021 the Palestine Museum began selling her for $49.99 each, and is now completely sold out.

Each doll wears a detailed thobe, the longer one in front for their bridal collection. The thobe is a traditional Palestinian dress with tatreez (embroidery) which uses color to indicate what region the wearer is from. During the First Intifada in the 80s, it became a symbol of resistance against Israeli Apartheid, and of Palestinians' connection to their land. (Credit to Handmade Palestine and @nickysfacts for this information)

As far as I can tell based on discrepancy in stock photos, the dolls with embroidered thobes were considered collectors items with a higher price. Meanwhile the details might have been printed for playline/budget releases, likely to lower the price for better availability.

Jafra's dream is to "empower all the beautiful girls from the Middle East". She lives away from her homeland, but hopes to design and build her own house in Palestine. She grows Chamomile and Thyme in her garden, studies architectural design in college, and always tries to volunteer and help others. Her thobe binds her to her home country, passed down from her ancestors.

"Jafra is beyond a doll... beyond an idea. It's a deep-rooted tradition mixed with history and memories"

I hope I have made it abundantly clear that I do and always will support Palestine, and encourage anyone who considers this genocide a "war against Hamas" to unfollow and block me immediately. You have been given every opportunity to educate yourself and sympathize with the innocent Palestinians suffering at the hands of Israel, and your ignorance does not deserve a listening ear over them.

To my followers, I implore you to do your daily click. Contact your representatives. Attend protests. Donate or buy an e-sim if you can. We need to let our government know we are not going to fucking stand for this, and support Palestinians however remotely possible.

A ceasefire WILL be reached. Palestine WILL be free. No matter what actions Israel and its disgusting supporters commit Palestine WILL NEVER DIE.

Ramadan Kareem, and Free Palestine.

They also pointed out that this dress was worn by Nadine Coyle from Girls Aloud (an English girl band) on the Graham Norton show, and it makes sense that Clawdia would be inspired by UK celebrities as she is studying in Londoom.
