Hi everyone! I’m Carlos, a doll collector from Alaska, where apparently living in the frozen north wasn’t enough of a reason to fill my home with tiny people who require their own wardrobes. 😂 I currently have a total of 109 dolls, because apparently collecting dolls is my chosen method of home decoration. My collection includes 31 Smart Doll/Dollfie Dream vinyl dolls—15 Smart Dolls and 16 Dollfie Dream, three of which are hybrids using Smart Doll or Parabox bodies. I also have 68 Barbies, 6 Disney ILY dolls, 1 Rainbow High, 1 Monster High, and 2 porcelain dolls. When I’m not adding another doll to the collection and insisting that I definitely have room for one more, I enjoy designing and sewing doll clothes, drawing, playing video games, and escaping into fantasy and sci-fi. I especially love creating outfits for my dolls, because apparently owning 109 dolls wasn't enough—I also decided they all needed wardrobes. 😂 My husband has recently informed me that if I want to add any more dolls, I may need to sell some first. I believe this is a completely unreasonable attack on my collecting philosophy. After all, where exactly am I supposed to put the next doll? 🤔😂 I’m here to admire everyone’s collections, share my own doll adventures and creations, learn new things, and occasionally pretend I have my collecting habits completely under control. Spoiler: I absolutely do not. 😄

I'm finally starting my own post to share my girlies! (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧

I really was thinking about some fishtail braids on them, or matching dresses?

Last month a new girl joined my lil doll family ! Meet Mirai, my first ever Smart Doll ❤️ I wasn't planning on getting a smart doll so soon. I knew I definitely wanted one eventually, they are beautiful dolls after all, but I just never found any that I felt connected to, and I can usually tell pretty fast if I'm gonna bond with a doll or not. That was until I saw classic Mirai. Out of all of the smart dolls I've seen (there's so many releases lol) she was by far my favourite, her eyes are so pretty and she has the cutest lil smile. If I was gonna buy a smart doll, I knew I wanted to get her. But of course she was out of stock on the website, and anniversary Mirai just doesn't have the same charm the classic one does, so I kinda put her to the side to focus on my other two girls. Until oneday I came across a listing for her on a secondhand site ! And in the UK too ! She even had the original 2014 Mirai wig, plus her summer uniform, but she had quite a bit of staining and other issues that made me let her go 💔 But luckily at the same time I found another listing for her ! This one was in much better condition, though she had the regular 2018 wig (which is still cute and I have grown to love a lot) and no clothes, but I had plans for an outfit for her anyway. The seller was super kind and I managed to get her for basically the same price as a brand new smart doll ! (even with considering shipping + customs fees to the UK). They even included a cute doodle of her which made me so happy, I really love being able to rehome a doll and give her a brand new life. I'm sure she's been on lots of adventures, and I can't wait to take her on many more ! It took ages for her outfit to arrive hence the delay in posting about her (though she did steal Sasara's pink leopard print outfit for a bit, a lil big but she looked so cute). Volks sure does take a long time to ship sometimes ;-; but I think this outfit is the perfect fit for her !! She's already a well loved member of the family, I hope you guys will like her too ❤️

Hello! I was going through my photos and realized I’ve never posted any here, so I thought I’d dump some on ya! I’m not great at it yet but I hope they can bring someone a smile! First we have Grace, a white Kanata Smile from Smart Doll, then Jade a milk Serenity Smart Doll.

WIP Photodump for eyes~ I used resin + green micah powder + orange food dye. (I tried to buy some tiny light to make the eyes glow but it was too strong and shone through the doll itself so I ditched them.)

Instead of flooding the Photo Randoms thread, I guess it makes sense to create a new thread to put my photos. So to start off , here are a few nice shots I took a while back:

Does the newer smart doll milk match dollfie dream flesh or is there a noticeable difference? I want to hybrid a smart doll milk body and head with dddy thighs, but I don't have any newer flesh dd's, so I'm just wondering if they match like the older smd milk matched with dd flesh.

Hi all! I've always loved to sew but really have spent the last month glued to my machine. I wanted to show off a few outfits (Ive made something like 30 in a month?!) but settled on these little cat tops I finished a day ago Hope you like them! 😽

Hello! I'm new to this forum and I go by the nickname "Hamsters" or "D" I really want a smart doll and I'm currently saving for one! I'm an ABSOLUTE beginner and I'm pretty sure nobody in my area has ever HEARD of a vinyl doll so here I am! I do't know how to assemble, purchase or use a doll. They were just really pretty. I basically ransacked the website but I do not understand any of the building instructions. Also I need somebody to talk about my awesome dollies with! XD

Sketched up a quick doodle for my idea on how I'll style her, with both skintones to see which works best (though I'm still conflicted (╥﹏╥)) I don't even know if this is realistic for a first time doll, but it's still a nice baseline for me regardless! If anyone has any opinions on which skintone works better, that's also appreciated!!

This comic was not planned but saw an opportunity when I received the wrong Slotcar. This truck is really nice and inspiring. It is a bit more expensive than the one I ordered. I am a honest person so I did contact the seller. I believe items received in a bad way have bad karma around them. And everyone can make a mistake like this. Fact is this truck is a bit more valuable than the VW T2. But taking in account that this one must be shipped back and the new one shipped out, I gave the seller the opportunity to solve the mistake. Keeping this one or correcting the mistake. I let them decide. Honestly: I like this truck too and wouldn’t mind keeping this one instead. Would you have done the same in my place? Or would you handle it differently? Like to hear your thoughts about this topic.

Hello! this is sort of a dumb question but i can’t seem to find any information online. I recently bought the elf ears for my smart doll. they keep falling off when i pose her. i want them to be more permanent but the only thing im finding online is to use putty. i’m worried that will look messy and ill still have issues with them falling off. does anyone have any suggestions for keeping them on more permanently without damaging the doll? i’m tempted to glue them on but im scared of damaging the vinyl or there being a chemical reaction to the glue. i’m not super worried about resale value as i plan on keeping my dolls

Hey Guys I have made a spreadsheet to help people find free patterns. I hope this can be useful! I originally made it so I could print out all of the patterns easily when I went to a place with a printer and thought I might as well share it with others. I will add to it as I find new smart doll patterns. Feel free to let me know if you know of other patterns so I can add them too! https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1hu14aooOT90UyKq_g4YFKlRQVC0NxGY0GN_Tff2O9RQ/edit?usp=sharing

Hi!! I have another project doll in mind.. For a doll body I've not owned before, and a resin head.. I'm looking to see if this hybrid is viable at all LOLOL, excuse if this sounds a little obvious to anyone who's owned a Smartdoll or SQLab head/body/what-have-you. I'm not too crazy concerned about perfect color matching between the resin and vinyl, for the record. Though I'd like to know what would match best with SQLabs' ""normal"" tone. Not sure if Classic and Pear have any differences for head fitting. Regardless, any pointers are appreciated! Thanks in advance~~

I thought, hey, people make cute teddy dolls, but I can't sew, so let's try crochet! Just because the outcome is hilarious, I wanted to share 🤣 Actually, with the semi real head, I don't hate it. The proportions are a little off, but it was a fun project. And I still have enough floating heads for a few tries 😉 The Mirai head looks off, though 🙈

I actually didn't knew what topic to post this, but I will have some questions, so I choose "Questions", but I really love Ball-Jointed vinyl dolls, and I've been working to get my 1st custom doll, and i was thinking about a Dollfie Doll, but they actually are less acessible to my region, around 600 hundred R$ extra then a DD doll.. So I've been wondering, I actually have an SMD doll but she is a classic Mirai, anyways, I know Smart Dolls Internal frame quality, If someone could tell me if DD internal frame, articulations, vinyl quality and pieces are better then Smart Dolls, I'd be very happy! I kinda like the body diversity difference in SMD and DD, I like all of their bodies too, but if someone could answer wich one is better for customization, I'll wait for collectors answers!

I hope it's okay to make a new thread- if not, I understand if this one gets combined with my old one 😅 however, the direction of my collection has changed, and their entire story setting changed as well~ Of course, this is a photo thread, not a writing thread, so I will introduce the newest members: ~ ~ And now, some not-new not-arrivals! Just some girlies that got upgrades since I last posted. That's all for now~

We had a great doll meet in South NJ today! There were so many awesome dolls and figures. A Dollfie Dream went to school with a desk and chair, a couple dolls enjoyed quality time on a couch, we had a whole bunch of Smart Dolls, and there were so many other things to see and do, it's amazing we fit it all into one meet. Oh yeah, a tiny doll also got successfully strung at the meet, and my Eva's lingerie got repaired! My dolls were enjoying bedtime. I actually kept my Tania and Stephanie to one side of the table because Leah and Eva were enjoying some private time as lovers in their sexy lingerie. As a last minute grab, I packed my Momoko Doll Midnight Rose second edition so she could join the bedtime fun. I think it's her first time at a doll meet. I decided to leave her high heel slippers at home because she must've shifted her weight, and the slippers were all bent out of shape. Also, we went to Harrison House Diner after the meet, and there was a truck with Buzz Lightyear and Woody dolls in the back! You've really got to zoom in to see them, but they were there! Mostly group shots are below. Lighting is always challenging, so I substituted some closeups for group shots that didn't turn out nicely. I highly recommend checking out the whole set of photos in this Flickr album so you can see everything. Almost all dolls photographed better close up. https://flic.kr/s/aHBqjC7arq Zoom in on this last one. Buzz and Woody are in the back of the truck.

So I finally got my smartdoll back in December and after changing her a bit to fit what I envisioned she's finally ready Here's a before and after of my Shouko I'm slowly sewing her a wardrobe but appearance wise she's mostly as I wanted. I'm planning of giving her a cherry blossom tattoo as well but I need more research for that xD
