QOTW: Who do you think is the most underrated release?
Written on January 11, 2016 at 3:00 pm by MichelleFiled under: Question of the Week
For me, I think the most underrated stock dolls end up being the ones that are customized the most. These mostly consist of the ‘Simply’ or the ‘Prima Dolly’ releases because they were so plentiful and also so widely customized to the point that it’s hard to find a stock one. Out of my own doll collection, I would say the ‘underrated’ title goes to Tertiary Jane, who is a mostly stock Simply Peppermint. I find that Simply Peppermint (and Simply Lilac, as they were both released together) are often customized and it has gotten harder to find them in stock condition. As it is, I’ve customized my own Simply Peppermint (although most of it is reversible), so even my own isn’t in stock condition. It’s a bit sad when you think about it, because these dolls are often transformed to look like another doll, but it’s getting harder and harder to find one that is minty.
Who do you think is the most underrated stock release?
Ooh, for me it’s a toss-up between Prima Dolly Ashlette and Mademoiselle Rosebud. They both have amazing hair and I love that SBL face. Both of them came to me pre-owned, but they are my favorites of all my dolls!
Ashlette is sooo gorgeous! I adore her too!
😀 Ashlette was my first Blythe! I will always love her! 🙂
I have a stock country summer who definitely seems to be a more recent release to get customised. Her hair is very thin compared to others which I think is why she’s often overlooked but the colour is beautiful and her face is so pretty.
I agree about Simplys Peppermint and Lilac. For me, it’s Simply Love Me. I think she’s so underrated and is one of the releases that is closest to a Kenner <3
Don’t know for now but I guess some time ago Save The Animals was seriously underrated. As for me, she gives you helluvalot possibilities because of her so humble colors and great exclusive eyechips.
Any sbl! I love them!
Oh, I so agree! SBLs are my fave!
Didee Eureka!!! I just can’t believe how pretty she is. Her stock does her zero favors. She is so beautiful out of it.
