Finding Doll Props: World’s Smallest and Lalaloopsy Blind Box Unboxing

This post may contain affiliate links, please check out my disclosures page for more info.  Thanks!

Anna made a quick trip to Target and returned with not one, but two brand new blind boxes for us to enjoy.

A white haired ball jointed doll (Hikaru) holding two blind boxes.  One is Lalaloopsy the other is for World's Smallest.

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.

It's the blind box for World's Smallest, inside is a small size replica of a classic toy.  It's a surprise which one.

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.

Opening up the blind box.

Inside the box is the wrapped toy and a surprisingly extensive catalog of their other novelties.

A quick peek at the catalog that comes insde the World's Smallest brand blind box.

Several of the offerings look promising.

A tiny size version of a Duncan yo-yo, could it work for a doll?

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. 

The small yo-yo being help by a msd sized (1/4 scale) ball jointed doll.  It would probably work better for a larger size doll.

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.

Our msd sized doll, holding the yo-yo still while looking at two little yosd sized bjds.  They are looking through the catalog for World's Smallest brand toys.  Some of them may be the right size for them.

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.

The Lalaloopsy blind box.

Next is the Lalaloopsy blind box.  According to Anna, Lalaloopsy is a line of play dolls designed to resemble sewn ragdolls.  How quaint.

The Lalaloopsy blind box.  It's cute, pink and ready to be opened.  Let's see what surprise lies inside.

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.

Trying to decide who gets to keep the toy.  The blond haired yosd bjd is counted out.

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..”

Trying to decide who gets to keep the toy.  The other msd bjd is counted out.

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! :)”

The pink haired yosd ball jointed doll gets to keep the Lalaloopsy toy.  She is happily playing with it.

So that means the little Lalaloopsy goes to Yuna.

All the other bjds are watching the pink haired yosd enjoy her new toy.

She will enjoy her new doll and take good care of it. 

However, there is still one more thing to settle.

Now all the bjds are staring at the cute pink box a few inches away.  It came with the Lalaloopsy and would be perfect to store other things in, but who gets to keep it.

Who gets to keep the pretty box.

Close up of our white haired narrator bjd as she has her final say.  She really wants to keep the pink box too.

This may not be so simple to resolve.  Wish us luck my dear readers.
