Best doll box opening video ever! Miku lol (stop motion)

Miku was just walking around in the room when suddenly she discovered, her other self, in a box. She decided to call her friends to free her.

I guess my dolls are getting a bit tired of me taking so long to open the new doll's boxes so they decided to take the matter into their own hands.

Here are some pictures

Special Halloween Doll Review: Taeyang Valko (with video)

I realised that Valko was the only doll from the mansion of immortal I have who didn't have his own review video.

I got him some time ago when I was still only doing box opening pictures and photo session on facebook.

He is part of the mansion of Immortal with Pullip Wilhelmenia, Isul Vermelho and Dal Lyla. He is the werewolf of the group which is why he has those furry hair and fur on his back, a long tail and the scare on his nose. I wonder if he actually became a werewolf because of this scare.

His name Valko is derived from the Bulgarian вълк (valk) which means wolf.

This quote: I’m going to be strong under the white moon in the night…. See, here I am

Please give a like to those picture to support me in the Groove photo contest:
Dal: "Butterfly landing"
Taeyang: "Taeyang Gyro in Autumn"

Special Halloween Doll Review: Taeyang Nosferatu (with video)

Taeyang Nosferatu's video wasn't supposed to be a part of this Special Halloween series but I was asked to make a review of him so here we go. Taeyang Nosferatu is the only male vampire from the Vampire series by Groove which contains Pullip Elizabeth, Pullip Carmilla, Dal Ende and Byul Lilith. He has a very different style than Isul Vermelho. First, he has long white hair giving him an older look than Vermelho. Then he has removable fang so he can pretend not to be a vampire even if his very pale skin ton and deep crimson lips betray his nature. He is dressed in a more contemporary way too reminding me more of the bad vampire in Underworld than the classy one in Interview with a vampire. I think he totally makes a great pair with my Carmilla Queen of the vampire.

I have a lot of dolls who don't have their own videos because I had them before starting this youtube adventure so I intent to review them later on. If there is a particular doll you want reviewed and I happen to have her, please feel free to ask and I'll make the review for you.

Here are some pictures.

Trip to the Azone store: Special Taeyang and Dal 10th Anniversary, Ruruko event and Dioramas (with video)

The Groove Dal and Taeyang 10th Anniversary event started in Akihabara's Azone store on the 20th so I we were going out to the Snoopy museum (see Vlog #48) I decided to take the opportunity to stop by and check it out.

The Azone store as usual had their normal doll display, they changed a bit of it since the previous video to accomodate Halloween, the Groove event and the Ruruko event but nothing else.

There is a full wall of pullip, Groove had a lot of older Taeyang and Dal for sale at the store but most of them have been sold out. I wonder if they are going to get more soon.

The Special Anniversary dolls Taeyanf Albireo and Dal Deneb are there for sale too. I didn't get them as I already bought enough dolls for this month. 

 

Don't forget to vote for the photo contest on Groove's official page on facebook. There are four albums where to vote.

If you want to help me in the photo contest leave a like on my Taeyang and Dal pictures:

Dal: "Butterfly landing" and Taeyang: "Taeyang Gyro in Autumn". 

VOTES ARE NOW CLOSED

Then there was the Ruruko special event as Azone and Ruruko is getting 4 special dolls out really soon. I sort of like the excute but I think I'll prefer to have them in the original detective version.

Also because of the event, Azone had several diorama that could be used to take pictures of your dolls. I had Lipu and Erunoe with me so I just went ahead and put them everywhere on the diorama for a photo session.

Like my facebook page for dolls for more pictures and posts and videos.

You can check the album of the event here on facebook.

What is your top 10 pullips, top 3 Isuls and top 3 Taeyang...?and why? (can be your top try bjd or top monster high or whatever you are into. ;) )

In this video, I present some randomly selected top 10 pullips, top 3 Taeyang, top 3 Dal and top 3 Isul. If you ask me next week, the result might be different as I'm really bad at choosing.

I give a little story about each doll, like how I got her and why she is important for me.

Sample doll Opening and Review: Taeyang Grell (Kuroshitsuji stop motion)

This is the third and last review of a Kuroshitsuji doll with stop motion scenes.
If you haven't seen the two first episode please check out Sebastien and the Undertaker.

Grell first appears as the very clumsy and shy butler of Madame Red. He is left at the Phantomhive mansion under the direction of Sebastien because Madame Red thinks he needs some training but this turns out to be all pretence as Grell is in fact way more than a simple butler.
When his real personality comes out, he turns into the character created by Groove for this doll, with red hair and a red coat he stole from Madame red. The only thing that doesn't change is his admiration and love for Sebastien.

This doll is really close to the Kuroshitsuji (Black Butler) character. He is amazing with details such as the glasses with a skull on the side, the gloves, the red coat or the special eye chip. I really like this Taeyang a lot.

His quote: Oh, It’s Good…and Good!! My even ”Sebastian”….. The eyes….Let the heart to flare up freeze!!! Feel shivery!! The lowest best!!!

Sample doll Opening and Review: Taeyang Undertaker (with stop motion)

Let's continue our Kuroshitsuji review series with the undertaker. As mentioned in the video, I'm doing it before the previously released doll because the version of the previously released doll appears only later in the anime.

The undertaker is the character taking care of the dead as the grim reaper secretly and as a funeral director officially. He serves as an informant for Phantomhive, which is why you see Ciel and Sebastien knocking on his door after visiting the dead girl's body.

He wears a band of prayer beats and a chain with six mourning lockets which I'm not yet sure of the signification of each. His clothes are the same as the anime and typical of the funeral mutes in in Victorian England.

He has more particular feature on his face than any other dolls I have seen. He has a matching set of hair, eyebrows and eyelashes. He also has some grey blushing, which I haven't mentioned in the video and his eyelids and eye make up are totally grey. He also has a scar on his face and another one on his body.

His eye have pupil a lot smaller than the other dolls, I would guess it is a representation of him being able to see very well in the dark so that his pupil shut down excessively with the light.

His quote: I told that the soul regarded one as important….. How many times will I make the same advice you, Phantomhive Earl?

Sample doll Opening and Review: Taeyang Sebastien (Kuroshitsuji) with video (stop motion)

Let's start this new series of sample doll opening an review of Taeyang dolls with The black buttler Sebastien Michaelis. This Sebastien is the third Sebastien created by Groove for the animation Kuroshitsuji. The previous Taeyangs were the original Black buttle Sebastien and the private tutor version. This last version of Sebastien is part of the Book of Circus which is the third season of the anime.

Taeyang Sebastien is a very handsome Taeyang, he has all the characteristic of the butler for the phamtomhive household. He is a demon who has made a contract with Ciel and so he wears the mark of the contract on his hand as the same tattoo seen in Ciel's eyes. This tattoo is hidden by white gloves. The mitten of the dolls have been sewn to mimic fingers which is a really nice touch. He also comes with stickers that are supposed to be stuck on this face but I personally don't want to do that.

He is wearing a traditional butler outfit and a top hat. 

Little historical note from wikipedia:

Sébastien Michaëlis was a French inquisitor and prior of the Dominican order who lived during the late 16th and early 17th centuries. His Histoire admirable de la possession et conversion d'une penitente (1612), includes a classification of demons which has passed into general use in esoteric literature.

His quote is:I got tired to eat out catch-as-catch-can…. The dinner is delicious, so as to be hungry if hungry…

Sample doll Opening and Review: Taeyang Akira destinée de la rose (with video)

It has been a while since I opened a Taeyang. This time, I'm opening Taeyang Akira Destinée de la rose. I don't think this Teayang has any counter part dolls. He is a collaboration doll with Baby the star shine bright which is a branch from Alice and the Pirates.
He is wearing an amazing white outfit that gave him a really prince charming air. He also has a particular face up with dark eye shadow that extend to the side of his face as well as orange blush on the side instead of the usual cheekbones blush which gives him a more elongated looking face than the average Taeyang doll. He also has a specific black dot below his left eye which is very unique and particular and reminded me of the beauty standards in the past when women were putting a black dot on one of their cheeks.

I decided to take him outside for the photo session because today was a nice day and with the typhoon over Japan I'm not sure how long that will last. I also took Alura with him after dressing her with the outfit from excute otogi no kuni little briar. I think that outfit suits her really well and it's really different than what she is usually wearing. I'm also glad that my azone dolls and pullip can exchange clothes even if the top is a little bit too tight and can't close completely over Alura's breasts. I think Alura looks nice as Akira's princess. What do you guys thing? Do you prefer her as a princess of as a witch?
