A Comparison Between Articulated Dolls and Other Fashion Dolls
Some people who are new to the idea of collecting Asian ball-jointed dolls may wonder why people are willing to spend more money on a 1/6 scale doll like a Dollfie Plus than even the fanciest limited-edition Barbie doll or why people are willing to spend hundreds of dollars on a single Super Dollfie. I could write plenty of words on how Asian ball-jointed dolls have movements that are more realistic or how many of them are dressed in higher-quality doll clothes or how their hair have a silky feel that makes them seem more life-like. But that still wouldn't do the dolls justice. Instead, I'm just going to post some photos compairing a typical Japanese-imported articulated doll (in this case, a Dollfie Plus) with a typical mass-produced fashion doll that is frequently sold in toy stores at a low price (in this case, I'm using a Kim Possible doll that's based on the hit cartoon series of the same name). As the old saying goes, "A picture is worth a thousand words."
Here are the two dolls standing side by side.
