Stop tempting me! Only because some of the things would fit in with dollhouse junk I already have.

These will be the last ones. They were leftovers from Christmas, so my store won't be getting anymore.

My new camera arrived, and Sheen and Reini immediately found it.

DSLR or Mirrorless?

DSLR . . . I think? It's a Canon Rebel t7. I've spent most of the day figuring out how it works.

Rebel! Excellent!

Figuring out how it works - good for you! I bought a Canon DSLR two and a half years ago... and I have scarcely used it! I've never managed to set aside the time I think I'll need to just sit down with it and figure it out.

Best thing I've discovered on mine is that if you hold the button to take a photo down partway, it auto-focuses. I spent two hours trying to figure out how to focus it.

@davidd I'd like to know how real doll life goes with some Phicen. I've been half curious about getting one.

@davidd I'd like to know how real doll life goes with some Phicen. I've been half curious about getting one.

There are a variety of sizes of Phicen (now called TBLeague) figures. The ones I pictured here are the smallest, and are slim enough that even some Barbie clothing is too large for them.

The "anime" bodies (S36/S37) are relatively slim, with "fashion doll" proportions, so some Barbie, Pullip, and other 11-1/2 inch fashion doll clothing fits them. Mattel Wild Hearts Crew clothing fits the small and medium size TBLeague bodies fairly well - which doesn't help much, since Wild Hearts Crew have been discontinued.

The S26/S27 body size is also trim enough that playline fashion doll clothing often (but not always) fits.

"Normal" size TBLeague bodies tend to be thicker in all dimensions than most "playline" dolls, so it takes some searching and experimenting to find clothing that fits. There's plenty of clothing available online designed for the seamless figures, but prices tend to be... not cheap.

The Giantoy.com website has a body comparison page that is helpful when getting started with seamless figures:

I find Giantoy to be one of the more reputable sources for TBLeague/Phicen figures, along with BigBadToyStore in the States.
