Sounds like the same kind of thing as the action figures that grow in value only as long as they're mint and boxed. 🤔
I guess I understand the sentiment, but that just means they'll likely never be opened and displayed by anyone, which kinda makes the whole point of a doll moot. 🙃
And yes, she is pretty awesome! 😎
Thank you Sir. The thing is, many of the older ones don't sell on for much more than the list price. They are maybe making 10%-20% on something they've had in the cupboard for 10 or more years. It does depend on the character as some like rem/ram, sailor moon series and Hatsune Miku command obscene prices.
I am of the mindset that its pointless keeping them boxed up. They should be out on display in all their beauty. I like to buy them and set them free lol

She is very cute and pretty Seth. Yes my Mother used to collect porcelain dolls and she used to leave them in their boxes
How many Dolfies do you have? Are they very expensive?
Thank you Bobby. They can be expensive, it depends on the character. New they are around ¥53000 - ¥80000 which is about £280 - £400ish but there is 20% VAT to pay for importing them and obviously shipping. The most I have spent on one is erm close to a grand all in, cheapest was a 2005 model Dollfie that cost £175.
erm how many do I have? Oh no. This is where I feel like I'm at my first AA meeting introducing myself lol. Hello my name is Seth and I have 21 Dollfies, 18 Smart dolls, 2 by a company called Azone and 1 by a company called Tokyo doll who is actually silicone with a wire skeleton. Yes, I had to go count them :ROFLMAO: I can never remember how many I have. I check 2nd hand sites in Japan a couple of times a day because I have a FOMO complexion so the number is forever going up.

She is a magic user, Willow approves.
Thank you. I have a few magicians amongst them. There's elves too and even a couple of vampires. I do like the fantasy themed dollies.
This is another Dollfie, the character is Megumin from the anime A KonoSuba: God’s Blessing on this Wonderful World!




from what I can gather, having not watched the anime, she is a kind of pyromancer and likes blowing s**t up.
