A VERY interesting Pullip release is scheduled for May 2011, pre-ordering period starting October 1st. Limited to 300 pieces, a Pullip based on glamour model (“gravure idol”) Rina Akiyama.

In addition to my three Blythe, I also have a CCE (color changing eyes) doll and a Basaak doll. Here are some comparison pictures for those of you who consider getting a clone. I definitely recommend the Basaak over a CCE doll..!
