Anna made a quick trip to Target and returned with not one, but two brand new blind boxes for us to enjoy.
They seem quite different from the usual blind bags we’ve come to love (see Finding Doll Props: Surprising Blind Bags and Finding Doll Props: Blind Bags for Christmas).
However, different does not mean dreadful, so let us quickly unbox them.
The first one is from a line call “World’s Smallest”. These consist of small scale replicas of classic human toys and novelty items.
Anna says she first heard of them from a post on the bjd forum, Den of Angels.
Inside the box is the wrapped toy and a surprisingly extensive catalog of their other novelties.
Several of the offerings look promising.
Inside our box is a classic Duncan yo-yo. It doesn’t exactly suit my tastes, but I suppose the children may enjoy learning to use it.
But alas, this fine yo-yo is a little too large for 1/4 scale dolls. Perhaps the yo-yo would better suit a 1/3 scale bjd instead. It is definitely to large for our 1/6 scale yosds.
Anyway, Yuna and Sakura seem to be more interested in the other products made by this company.
Wait, is that a small scale Barbie doll they are admiring? Please no.
Next is the Lalaloopsy blind box. According to Anna, Lalaloopsy is a line of play dolls designed to resemble sewn ragdolls. How quaint.
The unwrapped box is quite pretty, it looks like a large purse or possibly a trunk.
Tucked inside, we have the wrapped doll and accessories and a catalog of all the different Lalaloopsy figures to collect.
Here we have the darling little doll and her parts.
How adorable, she wears a wig as well. It’s not quite as fine as my own, but apples to oranges.
Here is the little doll all dressed and ready for a day at the beach. It would appear that most of the dolls are based on such amusing themes.
This Lalaloopsy doll is the perfect size to be a plaything for any young ball jointed doll.
“Ooooo, what is that? It’s so cute! Can I have it?! Can I play with it now?! Well?”
Calm down Sakura dear.
“….Um…May I play with it too?…”
“Oh, it’s so cute! I want one too. :)”
No, not you too Usagi.
Well, I shall have to settle this properly.
Now Sakura, didn’t you just receive those “cool” building sets (see Finding Doll Props: Kinder Joy Opening)?
And when was the last time you tidied up your other toys?
“Oh man..”
And really Usagi, don’t you think this toy should go to the actual children?
Don’t worry Usagi, there’s something special coming up for you.
“Really, yay! :)”
So that means the little Lalaloopsy goes to Yuna.
She will enjoy her new doll and take good care of it.
However, there is still one more thing to settle.
Who gets to keep the pretty box.
This may not be so simple to resolve. Wish us luck my dear readers.

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.
