First there was Barbie.
Then there was Blythe.
But pardon me, this is only my opinion. you are entitled to your personal opinion.
yes, i was part of the barbie phase. Hence my Barbie-biased defence is that,
1. Barbie looks perfectly like a doll.
2. Barbie, NEVER, and i repeat, NEVER, got a chance to scare the **** outta me.
3. Barbie is fun. Sweet innocent fun.
4. Barbie has her own stylist.-me
yes, i could go on and on. The other doll lovers will be mumbling 'come on, (respective doll) is exactly like the above!!!'
okay, fair enough.
But, to me, Blythe is
1.scary.
2.just disproportionate.
3.too weird.
4.having too many contacts change.
5.severely emaciated.
6.totally not like a doll.
Why? I grew up in a time where dolls were supposedly 'playfriends' of we young girls. some(doll) that we look forward to playing with each day.
And also, we took a revelation in their clothes. We mimic their fashion sense, thus we grow. Beauty comes into the picture.
But as time passes and we girls passed the stage of dolls, we formulate our equivalent fashion sense. We start observing others.
But (pardon me, this is only my opinion. you are entitled to your personal opinion) has it gone too far in a way? Having read about how some females actually speak to their dolls, and bring them on shopping sprees, i wonder how the next generation will be like.
It's almost like asking, since when did the mobile telephone become indispensable?
Blythe, was a model for photography. yes, she, as a doll, is photogenic.
Because you get to shoot her at different angles and countless clothes changes after, she keeps mum. Perfect model.
I saw some Blythe fashion shoots, and, yes, she looks good.

this is a website that is a celebration of style, and beauty:-http://www.trustyourstyle.com/2006/07/blythe-life-i-just-received-these.html
Great photos on the Blythe website too.
But then again.
Did anyone notice that the female, not to mention human, anatomy is NOT big head, small body.
Even at a toy shop, she scares me away with those huge eyes.
It's funny if you think about it. why would a doll scare you away???
I am not a Blythe fan, though i do appreciate the photos/posters.
Just one grouch.
It creeps me out. Pardon my imagination, i imagine a lady, on a shopping trip, asking her blythe,
'Blythe, dear, do you perfer royal purple or teal?'
ok, back to my farmville and restaurant city. lolx
