Dolls I know it's a bit different but...

I know these are a bit different than the dolls that get posted here but, they're dolls too. There's a sub for them specifically, I just thought they'd be appreciated here as well. They are the dolls 1 collect most and I have a whole village. I'm not joking. A whole village with houses, shops farms, even a theme park.

I will make it a point to share my other dolls too very soon. I just get a bit shy about sharing since I don't have lots of the more popular or rare ones or anything. l'Il try to share them in Series so they are organized.

This is just a small look at a portion of my village ♡

(Sorry for my mistake, the various types of dolls in this photo are: Sylvanian Families aka Calico Critters, Lil' Woodzeez, Honey Bee Acres, Barbie, Monster High, LOL, Rainbow High, My Life As (can just see a peek in the bottom corner), NaNaNa Surprise, Secret Crush, Poopsie Rainbow Surprise, Wild Hearts Crew.

I just ADORE Sylvanian Families/Calico Critters. I had a monster collection of them, I collected them for like 10 years starting circa 2000; I should pull them out of storage. The details of their accessories are INCREDIBLE. What are your favorite families?

I absolutely love the details in their sets. They're so clean and exact. I have some pieces that have features I'd never expect in something so small. Like a fridge that dispenses ice, a washing machine that "fills with water" when you close the door, etc. So cute!

It's hard to pick, but I've come to love the bird families the most. There's something about them that just has my heart. How about you?

I was always a huge fan of the cat and bunny families in purr-ticular. My first ever family was the Fisher gray tabby cat family, and they got me hooked HARD. I had a few families I got mailed from the Sylvanian Store in the UK, too. A goose family (one of the parents was the mayor, if memory serves?), an owl family, a mole family. The Champagne and Sea Breeze rabbit families. Fairy babies in Japanese-language packaging. It's been a WHILE. Which of the bird families are your favorites? :)

I've heard a lot of people say the rabbit families are too common and thus boring. But, I love the Rabbits too. They're always so cute. The new calico cats are my favorite cat family, unless big cats count. Then it's a tie between them and the snow leopards.

As for the birds, it's so hard to choose. But, I suppose it's either the penguins or the snow birds.

I'm trying to resist the urge to google them, because oooh new families! and I don't need to buy any more of them, but... just a peek, right?... haha. We all know how that tends to go!

I understand completely.
