Bjd Unboxing: Kids Sky Review Part 2 and an Eye Review

We are continuing on from yesterday’s unboxing of our newest ball jointed doll, a Kids Sky Momo.  Now that it is day time, we can see her beauty in more flattering lighting instead of that horrid camera flash.

Her face up looks so beautiful in natural lighting, as well as those intriguing eyes.

Pity, the “new doll” dress doesn’t look as well in the brilliant day light.  However, Yuna and Sakura have a simple solution to her clothing woes.

“You can borrow this dress!  It’s so pretty, it will look great, right?”

“Um…You can borrow my headband…If you want.”

Now fully dressed, doesn’t she look lovely.  The three look so adorable lined up together.

They do right?  This is one of reasons why I wanted her so much.  I wanted a trio of cute yosd sized dolls to play with and do cute poses for photos.

“Are you taller than us?  Did you grow?!  Show me how, I want to be as big as Miss Ghost Lady!”

“…I think it’s her shoes.  They have heels.”

That’s right.  Though she look taller in her new shoes (sold here, in case you're interested), the new doll is actually about as tall as Yuna and quite slim.  I will do a body comparison later.


Anyway, I can see now that these three will be great friends.  I also believe this new doll and I will get along quite handsomely.  She is such a well-mannered young girl, and so mature for her age.

“I beg your pardon, but why does Sakura refer to you as ‘Miss Ghost Lady’?”

…Why indeed…

Now it’s finally about time to discuss the eyes.  They are EHS014 in 14 mm. glass eyes , and are a pleasant shade of blue. 

As mentioned yesterday, they were purchased at a steep discount for Usagi.  Anna has come to the conclusion that Usagi’s original eyes aren’t a perfect fit, literally.

That’s right, if you look closely there is some slight gaps along the edge.  Plus I think the pupils are a little small in proportion to the whole eye. 

I thought the ones I brought for Yuki were really nice (see New Arrival: A Doll Love Bjd Unboxing and Review), so why not get another pair?

They fit fine and look great on her.  I love how much shinier glass is compared to acrylic eyes. 

They weren’t my first choice for color (the first choice sold out), but they turned out better than expected.

Indeed, the color is much better than before, and far more suitable for our dear Usagi.

After inserting Usagi’s new eyes, Anna took the liberty of adjusting Yuna’s eyes.  Their alignment was off from the start and it made the poor child look cross eyed at times.  Now with her eyes properly positioned, she looks so much more endearing.

Our ball jointed doll family has grown quite large over the past two years and has undergone some changes. 

I would like to thank all those wonderful readers who have watched over us since our humble beginnings as well as those who have joined us recently.  Your support has meant so much to Anna and myself as well.  And with that support we shall continue to share our stories, our experiences and crafts for many more years to come.

Thanks for reading | From a Doll's Eyes

Of course, that means Anna should get to work.  We are in need of proper attire, and doll clothing doesn’t sew itself.

Be at peace my dear reader.

Pleasant comments are always welcome and appreciated.

But please, no anti-doll comments. They are unnecessary and a bit rude. We understand that some people find dolls creepy or weird, but this is a "doll blog" that is intended for those who enjoy dolls. If you dislike dolls that much, don't waste your time reading doll blogs.
