My Asian Community Just Got Bigger

My Asian community just grew thanks for a recent dollypusher friend.  First of all, this is the name she used for herself.  I just happened to agree with her.  What is a dollypusher, you ask?  It's very similar to a drug dealer. LOL!  It is a person who recognizes that you are addicted to dolls and sets out to offer you dolls for sale, knowing that with the right deal, you will crumble in a heap and holler 'uncle'. She initially offered me two different dolls, that I wasn't interested in buying.  The second doll was a Janay doll, very similar to my Antoinette doll.  I said no, to both dolls.  She mentioned that she would be sending me a little package of goodies for Morristown.  Yippee.  So like any good doll addict, I asked her if she had anything else for sale.  She mentioned a Kyori doll that I thought was a decent price, but with the Canadian shipping, and the fact that she is not on my list, I was okay saying no.  Not to mention, most of my Asian dolls are on smaller bodies.  An Asian doll on an FR body just wasn't what I needed.  She replied that she had been rebodied on a DG body.  Hmmm.  That's interesting.  After seeing pictures, I told her to give me a few days to think about it.  So I went to ebay to check to see how good the price really was.  Turns out the price was really good.  But I still thought of all the things on the list that I could put that money to.  Let's face it, we weren't talking about a $20 doll.    

This is my Asian community.  It is growing by leaps and bounds.

Here is Chang (dang he fine) with his younger sister to the right, his daughter to the left, and his wife Sunni in front.

This is dad to four of the ladies. I haven't named him yet.  He owns most of the Asian cuisine restaurants in Morristown.

This is one of his daughters, with her husband, who happens to be Chang's younger brother.  They are pictured with their daughter.

This is daughter #2, with her two daughters.  She probably has a husband, but he's not here yet.

Daughter #3 is the youngest of the four.

This is Tori and her mom, our town pediatrician.  That Tori doll is gorgeous! This picture doesn't do her justice.

This is the pediatrician's sister, with her daughter and granddaughter.

And here is Kyori!  She is daughter #4.  She is an actress.  So back to the story.  After checking out the price and thinking about it, I decided to buy the Kyori doll.  But every time I got ready to send the email that said I would buy her, I would stop in my tracks.  As you can see, I really didn't NEED another Asian doll.  My community had been progressing quite nicely and within my budget.  The dollypusher must have been able to sense my dilemma.  All of a sudden I get an email that says, if you buy Kyori, I will throw in Yue Sai Wawa, a Japanese doll for free, and I think I can find her an articulated body.  It was a wrap after that!  What do we dolly addicts like to hear?  Free and articulated.  Heck, we all know she could have probably just thrown in an articulated body without a head, and gotten me to say yes.

I am very happy that my dollypusher enticed me, because this doll is gorgeous!  

Here is Yue Sai Wawa.  This isn't the best picture of her, but my what a nice doll she is!  She has a nice sweet young look to her.  She will be the younger daughter to the pediatrician's sister.

And as promised, my dollypusher did have a wonderful care package for the ladies in Morristown, which wasn't dependent upon the Kyori purchase at all.  I am only sharing a few items.  There were some clothes, shoes, other accessories, and a few more purses that didn't make either picture.  When I saw the purses, a let out a squeal of delight.  I love dolly handbags and these will look nice in Ni'Chalet's.  Racquel may have to expand her shop soon.

Here are a few more purses and a cute Asian chest.

Oh goodness, we have an intruder....

Dominique came to get the leopard handbag.  She has been lurking around my sewing machine trying to see if I have started her wardrobe yet.  Now that she has claimed the handbag, I know she is not going to let me rest until I make her some clothes.

Special thanks to Megan for being such a great dollypusher.  I love both dolls and all the great items you sent for the ladies!  Much love to you.
