Lola Paprika is moving on. [Well, I hope she is. I put her on the DOA marketplace today.] She never really turned out to be the doll I wanted anyway.<\/p>\n
I first learned of Angelsdoll at doll club back in April of 2011,<\/a> when I was struck by the beauty of a fellow enthusiast's Ruby on the massive girl body. Such a sweet, soft face. Naturally, I wanted Ruby.<\/a><\/p>\n When I hopped over to the AD site to order a Ruby, I saw that they were having a super sale on Hyang.<\/a> Basically you could get a Hyang with eyes, faceup, outfit and free shipping for the price of a blank Hyang excluding shipping. The cheapo in me won out over the aesthete in me, and I bought Hyang.<\/p>\n While poking through the AD site, I also discovered Cat Avatar Ieseul<\/a> and her super awesome\/obnoxious default faceup. I much preferred it over Hyang's default plaintive, understated look. I therefore expressly ordered my Hyang with the Ieseul Cat Avatar faceup, planning her look and her personality to match.<\/p>\n I'm not sure how this happened, but Lola Paprika came with the default depressed Hyang faceup. She was so beautifully done that I didn't want to have her faceup wiped, so I tried to keep her as she was, with the default faceup and a look for a more obstreperous doll, but she never really worked for me.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, in June, 2011, AD lowered their prices<\/a> of blank 62cm girls to $220.00 before shipping. I had the extra eyes and outfit that came with Lola Paprika, and I still wanted Ieseul Cat Avatar's faceup, so clearly<\/i> the logical<\/i> course of action was to buy a whole Ieseul Cat Avatar. How could I resist?<\/p>\n Janvier Jett became the obstreperous character that Lola Paprika never did. She demanded leg fuzzies, spiky hair, cat's-eye glasses, a guitar, jointed hands, even a brightening of the already loud colors in her faceup. With her cute little smirk, she exuded all the ebullience that I had wished for my anxious introvert Lola Paprika.<\/p>\n Recently I admitted to myself what I'd been thinking all along: Of my 2 Angelsdolls, I liked Janvier Jett more as a character, even though Lola Paprika's outfit was much cooler. Last night, when I was in the midst of wondering what more BJDs I could get rid of, I decided to stick Janvier Jett in Lola Paprika's clothes, hair and eyes; I would then sell Lola Paprika with the clothes and eyes she came with. That way I would have my Flaming Hot Pussy guitarist and<\/i> the eye-bleeding clothes I'd spent so long carefully mismatching!<\/p>\n Watch for photos of the new, improved Janvier Jett later today!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Lola Paprika is moving on.
