so i thought i'd give a little review of my favourite dolls, the Fortune Days Tarot and Constellation series. you can easily find them on Amazon, Aliexpress or Ebay by searching "tarot doll" or "constellation doll" (here is the tarot High Priestess:

good
=====
14 POA
they arrive from China pretty quickly in my experiemce
high quality clothes - finished edges, lined, embroidered details, ribbon edging, all removable
removable hands and feet
holds poses perfectly
interesting, complex costume design
come with props/accessories
soft hair that doesn't frizz up on brushing (not sure what it's made of)
inset eyes with applied eyelashes
peaceful looking expressions
different hair style & colour for each so it helps them look different to each other
fits Barbie, Integrity, Poppy Parker, Phicen clothes so you can easily get a large wardrobe for them
nicely packaged
bad
===
knees are only single jointed
no torso joints
quite expensive compared to Barbie etc (around £30-40)
mostly only ship from China
all have the same face & faceup
bad quality shoes and underwear (will probably need replacing)
large bust so Blythe clothes will usually not fit
nipples. why
some have sparsely rooted hair (my Virgo does, all my others don't)
would love to hear what you all think
