How long have you been collecting dolls?: 5 years
Why did you start collecting?: A friend of mine had a few resin ball-jointed dolls and she encouraged me to find out more about them. After I held one of hers on my lap, I fell in love and didn't want to let it go! Shortly after that, I bought Aryanna. I only recently starting having an interest in DDs after seeing all the gorgeous girls on figure.fm and dannychoo.com - unfortunately my DD girl has not arrived yet -_-;
Where do you adopt (buy) your dolls?: I bought Aryanna, a Cerebus Project Soony, from eluts.com and I won DD Sakuno through the VolksUSA lottery for her.
How much money have you spent on your doll hobby?: Too much and yet not enough somehow.
What sort of doll events do you attend?: I was fortunate enough to be in Osaka to attend the Home Town Dollpa there this year, and a small get-together for local people who have dolls is held about once a month where I live.
What are so special about dolls?: The incredible versatility and the size! I really love how big they are - you can make detailed clothing and accessories for them without having to sacrifice too much because of scale.
