Shibajuku Girls
« on: August 29, 2017, 07:41:42 AM »
Does anyone else have these girls? I nabbed all three of these babies and was surprised to find out this was the second series! Anyone know where the first line was sold? I adore these girls! I did an unboxing of Skizuka but I have yet to edit and upload it. (I was thinking she'd make a Great Pinkie Pie custom girl!!) I was really impressed by their quality and surprised that they were so well jointed everywhere but at the ankle!

Oh they are really cute! I love their clothes-

They look similar to La De Da or Liv maybe? I haven't seen them in the store, but I'll admit it's probably been at least a month since I went to Target.

I just bought one today actually!! their bodies are the same size as regular barbies, but their heads are HUGE (much like pullips)
I got mine at target, and I got her on sale :' )
I really want the black/white stripey one, but they didnt have her so I got the blue haired one.

I have plans to give her new eyes at least, since her default eyes are kind of ugly imo. I gave her a 1980s barbie skirt but everything else is hers to begin with.

Oh wow that's a big head there!

I wonder if they are "inspired" by Pullip's popularity...

Do you still have the box, OPM? I'd love to see the dolls pictures on the back of it since your girl is obviously from a different series as mine.

I thought of Pullips the first time I saw them, that's for sure.

Wow, I didn't know the Shibajuku dolls were going to be sold in America. They were created by an Australian designer, so they've been available here for months. I found them kind of interesting but never enough to pick one up.

Thanks, OPM! I hadn't seen Miki and Koe! Miki might want to be picked up to be made into an AiW Alice doll, if I can find her!!! ^.^

  Thanks for that information, Tulips! I'd have never guessed they came out of Australia!

Yeah, they're a very basic Pullip clone. Dulljunk on Tumblr has made a couple posts about them and thinks they're just a recast of a modded type 4 body.

Its very, very easy to sculpt over existing joints, which is what Dolljunk thinks happened. It sure looks like its true from his photos.

Aw man, that really sucks that they could be direct recasts. :( I haven't bought any of the actual dolls because they're not my style, but man do I love the clothes. I have been tempted to buy the dolls just to swipe those. I bought all the clothing packs because they look really cute on my Hujoo Freya and my Kikipop body:

This one is probably my favorite set though. This is my Dollce girl on an Azone Kikipop body.
