Me, again. I have given up on Jason’s fashion royalty, also. Too pricey & so harsh looking & I’m not wild about all the bendable bodies, actually. I bought a couple of the old international Candis (Jason’s series) recently & love them. I still have all my Candis. I still collect Barbie-love the Twilight series & the odd doll here & there. BJD’s just aren’t my thing. It really has been a long time hasn’t it. What a great group!

Best to all,

Melissa in MD

Wow!  It's cool this list is still in existence!  It goes back so far...to the early exciting days of something new and different from Barbie.  :)

Kathy, I will see if I can get a copy of this magazine also...I'd love to see the article!!

I can't believe your son is 11...I remember when he was born.  Have we been in the online doll world that long???  It's come a long way, hasn't it???

I also love Momokos and Misakis.  Though the price points on those aren't exactly cheap either!!  I haven't bought one in ages.  I have only 5 Momokos and love them and kind of feel the need for a new one lately!!  hee hee!!  I also think I have 3 or 4 Candi's still.  I really did like them!

Any other Candichatters out there???

Hi Melissa and all!

Thanks for the heads up on the article. I did the email interview a
while ago, so didn't know it was out yet. May have to go find me a copy
of Dolls! LOL Grayson just turned 11, ACK. How did that happen? I am
busy doing the mommy volunteer thing all the time. I coach his Lego
Robotics team, serve on the fund raising committee ( just stepped down
as chair of that one after 4 years) and work in the library. Our school
was moved last summer so I and two other parents, spent well over 100
hours each just organizing and putting all the books back on shelves.
What a job.
Haven't had as much time to work on dolls as I would like. I have moved
away from a lot of the Fashion Royalty girls and into some of the
Japanese things like Momoko and Misaki. I like the sweeter look of these
dolls. I have to admit that I admire Jason's talent, but I am sort of
over the high fashion hard edged look of his dolls right now. ( as well
as the price point, remember the price on the first ones?) Every once in
a while I still play with a Candi doll or two. I never can seem to weed
them out, as they are still really fun. Had someone send me a couple
last Christmas in a gift exchange, and I was still thrilled to get them. LOL
Hope everyone else is still doing well. Pipe up, would love to hear from
everyone!

Hugs,
Kathy M.
