"I do buy not myself $100 jeans, but I buy the dolls $100 jeans": RELATABLE 🤣 SD clothes are definitely investment pieces, but for dolls that are so beautiful and high quality, they gotta have the same standard of outfits to match! Honestly, thank goodness for my dolly friends alerting me to doll drops; I'm a terrible stalker. Great video, Tammy!

@TammyPowley 2 месяца назад

Exactly, I can't have my high end dolls where rags lol!

@dakotatwilight 2 месяца назад

I agree. I love my Chitose Multiverse, at the time Haruka was "backordered" so I bought me my Kiku instead, she was my second on the list Mirai being third. Now if I would want to buy one I am torn between Limitless and a Pear girl. But it would be quite a while. Another thing people need to remember is SmartDoll is a made in Japan doll, not a single part even material used is sourced outside of Japan, hence the price Danny designs everything from 3D mockups to the molds himself with his in-house team of 17. My son holds Danny's business model in very high esteem.

Exactly, you don't see knock offs of these dolls.

hiii tammy!..yes i've seen so many new ppl getting into the smart doll! such a fun doll to dress and take pictures of! your girls Are gorgeous ! i own monday in tea...i got her a new wig recently and love it! great video

I have a list to buy more!~ ;-) I do LOVE them!~ Yes. I am 'Stalking!' the website.

It seems you have to stalk to have a chance of getting what you want!

Hi, i was lucky enough to get my first girl 7 years ago in Japan, where they had a facility then where you could put your girl together in store, we also got to meet Danny too, i now have 6 in total. I havent had one for sometime though but as you say i need to save up first. I am really waiting for the Boy one but i am tempted for a Pear girl especially with the price at the moment because Yen to Pound is good too, but you also have to think about customs fees and postage too. thankyou for sharing 🥰🥰

@TammyPowley 2 месяца назад

Those extra fees are important to consider too. How nice to be able to see your doll actually built. Wow!

@octopudding325 2 месяца назад

@@TammyPowley 🥰🥰, it was great to be able to put her together myself with the staff assistance, that is why she is more special than the others, also she is the original Mirai with blue eyes as i could choose instead of the brown 🥰🥰

@LittleCraftyKitty 2 месяца назад

I would love a smart doll. Unfortunately i can't afford them yet. I was looking for a curvy girl but at 400$ i couldn't 😢 but I'll keep this in mind when i can find room in my budget ❤ i love your red head!!

@TammyPowley 2 месяца назад

Yes, the curvies are about $100 extra!

@amibrink 2 месяца назад

They really are so beautiful! For me they are a bucket list doll. Then I would probably make clothes for them, and buy a few pieces here and there. Thank you for your video Tammy. As always very informative. 🥰

@TammyPowley 2 месяца назад

They are dolls to work up to. Like I said, it was years of looking and thinking before I took the plunge. So glad you enjoyed the video.

@TammyPowley 2 месяца назад

@AmbrosiasDollhouse 2 месяца назад

I totally agree. I was going to buy one Smart Doll and travel with her… then she needed a sister and of course I had to have a pear… and you know I love coffee. SMH SHAME ON YOU DANNY CHOO! lol Also, all of my girls were more $$$ than they are now… with the acceptation of Ms. Pear. I’m glad that todays prices enable more collectors to purchase them. I love them all and they are just amazing dolls! Great video! ✨💜✨💜✨👏🏽

It is nice to get a little break on the price right now. Glad you enjoyed the video.

@murielsminiobsession 2 месяца назад

Loved this video! Great info! I've been eyeing them, but haven't made the jump yet 😆

@TammyPowley 2 месяца назад

I waited years before I bought my first, and I think it's helpful to really think over such a big purchase. I wish we could see these types of dolls in person more easily before buying.

@murielsminiobsession 2 месяца назад

@TammyPowley yes! That is my main hesitation! Luckily I have a friend who has one that I'll see over the summer 🌞

@dishobbies3885 2 месяца назад

They are lovely dolls, but their size and price prevent me from ever buying one for my collection. I always wanted to someday get a BJD for my collection but a much lower priced one. I love dressing and styling my dolls and without a wardrobe I wouldn't enjoy the doll very much. I just can't see ever paying that much for a doll even though I would love to have one, it won't happen. Thanks for all the information about them and it's fun to see those dolls that other collectors have in their collections. Take care.🙂

@TammyPowley 2 месяца назад

I totally understand. I ended up editing out a bit of a rant I did about costs and our personal comfort zone. It's all something we deal with in this hobby.

@dollcrazy300 2 месяца назад

If you really, really wanted one you would find a way. It’s true: “where there is a sincere will there is a way!” But if you keep saying there is “no way” that will come true as well.

@EclecticWandering 2 месяца назад

Thanks Tammy! I don't regret buying mine, I love her, but you right about wanting more than one, because I do want to buy another one so slowly saving......🙂😁😊

@TammyPowley 2 месяца назад

That's the way to do it.

@rhoclarry Месяц назад

I have the Transcendence Tea and the Transcendence Cinnamon Pear. I wanted a pear version for sewing. And yes I agree that they are big dolls. I have an Iplehouse Eid and the pear version can fit her clothes.

@TammyPowley Месяц назад

That's good to know. One reason I'm holding off on pear is because of all the different clothes I'd have to have.

@MomLuvs2Collect 2 месяца назад

Thanks for sharing 😃! These are really nice high quality dolls 👍 When I found out a few years ago how expensive they were I knew I'm probably never going to get 1 😔 But if I ever did get 1 I would have to stop at 1 because of their price 👎 I think I could stop at 1 because I only have 1 Pulip doll & it's the Wonder Woman version 😍 I will definitely stick to more pocket friendly dolls for now 😂

@TammyPowley 2 месяца назад

@AnnyeongBJD 2 месяца назад

I literally just bought my 5th Smart Doll! You weren’t joking. They’re very addicting. And I couldn’t resist getting a Pear Girl. I can’t wait to knit something for her! 💕 By the way, are those IKEA shelves in your background? I’m in need of new shelves now that I finally have space for a doll room!

@TammyPowley 2 месяца назад

They are book shelves from Staples. I've been very happy with them.

@azeverinarizona1931 2 месяца назад

Great video! Good suggestions! At this time I wouldn’t be able to display or dress her as she deserves so easy decision to wait on purchasing but who knows what the future holds 😊. Thank you for the size comparison . Your dolls are always dressed beautifully❤.

@TammyPowley 2 месяца назад

Thank you so much, yes, it's not just the doll you have to think about, lots of other elements in the decision to get one or not.

@dolljoylissa 2 месяца назад

I’m definitely getting one even though they don’t have the semi real “strength”the one I wanted. It won’t let me to put anything in my basket.

@unique37us 2 месяца назад

I said I was not going buy any Smart Dolls...6 dolls later, I am waiting on one to come tomorrow...I also am interested in Trouble and I would like a Coffee one too😂😂😂. I will not get a Pear because I don't want to have to buy separate clothes for her. I already have a small fortune invested in the Classic and they can share clothing 😊. But they are cute, just not for me. Enjoyed watching your video ❤ Thank you for sharing 😊

@TammyPowley 2 месяца назад

Thanks for the comment. And, yes, those are my thoughts on the pair dolls. Not for me and not ready to buy a bunch of different clothes considering the $$ I've sunk into the class dolls.

@sweetmarie2979 2 месяца назад

Thank you for the informative video. I do like larger fashion dolls but, for now I am content with the 60cm dolls from AliExpress. I hope Danny never creates a completely realistic Smart Doll face because then I will be down the Smart Doll rabbit hole also.

@TammyPowley 2 месяца назад

He is very talented. You never know!

@cindyhauffe6963 2 месяца назад

I collect 1/6 scale. So I bought a smart doll head on ebay & paired it w/a 1/6 bjd body from aliexpress & made my own. Was a little tricky cuz the head hole was quite a bit smaller than the typical bjd. But it actually came out pretty darn good & she is not out of sync w/the rest of the dolls.

@TammyPowley 2 месяца назад

Now that sounds very creative!

@cindyhauffe6963 2 месяца назад

@@TammyPowley Yeah, it was an adventure cuz I contacted Danny Choo about how I could buy just a head & he suggested ebay. Found the exact head I wanted. I was so pleased w/the result that I even sent him pics of how it turned out. He seemed to approve. & now that I heard his version of the ‘pocket doll’-if he ever gets around to making it; is gonna be 16” (way bigger than my dolls), I’m REALLY glad I made my own! 😬

@BarbieLove 2 месяца назад

I think they are pretty but I am with you on the size. I don't buy too many large dolls.

@TammyPowley 2 месяца назад

I wish I had space for all of the dolls my heart desires.

@littleplasticfriends 2 месяца назад

Perfectly said. I did not realize that the yen was down again - I will be taking advantage of that, for sure. I want the coco chi (cheese) and semi-real courage. I prefer the anime dolls, but I have a few semi real girls, as well.

@TammyPowley 2 месяца назад

It's really nice to have this price break right now for collectors in the US, and I guess I've heard the British pounds is also pretty strong compared to the yen too.

@dolliesminituresandcollect7663 Месяц назад

I soooo want a smart doll but alas the only way I'd get one is as a gift

@TammyPowley Месяц назад

That is how many of us get this type of doll. I usually save birthday and Christmas money up for such a purchase.

@dolliesminituresandcollect7663 Месяц назад

Yeah I've noticed, I just would feel guilty if someone spent that much on me, even indirectly. So for now I'll just have to admire these beauties from a far 😺

@beverlylackey3908 2 месяца назад

I have altered 18 inch doll clothes to fit my smart doll, as I know how pricey the clothes for them are. I did purchase quality shoes for her however….
