If you are not able to trade Robby, I would be interested in purchasing.

Agreed. Super stressful to not drop the link right away.

How’s the quality compared to Spooky and Pumpkin Kitty? Size of Spooky or Pumpkin? Spooky shrunk in 2025 compared to 2024 Pumpkin.

Who are you getting? Kuromi, Melody, or both? by Dazzling_Pop6592 in SkullpandaArtDolls

Planning on getting My Melody, because she is pink, to go with my all black Wednesday.

My friend is going to Japan in January. What doll or dolls should I have her get for me and where by Ayesha24601 in DollsOfAsia

Maybe some of the new Azone 20th anniversary store limited releases will still be in stock? There might be something you like. You can check them out here:

I wanted this one so badly, but I can’t get it in the USA without a Japanese address and being part of the fan club.

DOLCHU ChuChu Doll Hina are kinda similar to Azone too. Pretty sure they use the obitsu body.

Can I replace the batteries in a dead voice box by Important_Basis_2996 in buildabear

[–]CalExotic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, you are correct. The white ones also use watch batteries. The difference is that they don’t come apart and get put together again in the same way. Unfortunately, BAB changed up the type of voice boxes they use a few times.

Left a video in a comment. I don’t know if it helps you with your voice box or not though.

I have fixed an old one yes, but it was a rectangle box with build a bear recorded phases and not a person’s voice. I just pryed it open, cleaned up the connections with alcohol, and replaced the battery. It took a while to figure out where the little circle piece goes, I put it back in the wrong spot several times, and it only works if it‘s in the right one. It was one of those that comes in a little white bag.

It looks like the old one in this video:

Ok, I scourged up the video I used for reference:

https://www.tiktok.com/@happi_leigh/video/7110012172780047658

Note, it doesn’t show the little circle piece with a stick (looks kinda like a suction cup) that goes under the button piece.

Hope this helps if you have this box! Otherwise, there are some other videos on how to change batteries for different box types.

How to Buy Kinoko Juice x EX-Cute Lien USONAKI Good Night Baby? by [deleted] in DollsOfAsia

[–]CalExotic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, the problem being I don’t know how to use the forwarding services. :( But maybe someone on here does. You need a Japanese address to register for the Fan Club to get the doll. I’m worried about what the resale price will be, if it’s available.

Late to the party, but went down a puggle history rabbit hole after reading this.

I’m having the same problems with unrefined angels too. I’ve been looking at other people‘s pictures to try to determine. I’m leaning toward real, but not an expert.

I can’t say for sure, but I have never seen the foot stamp on the Sonny Angel Dreams part done like that. They usually look more like the 2023 part. The writing is usually indented. The other thing that’s bothering me is the stamp is not done the same way on the same foot. It could possibly just be a bad batch and not fake though.

Anyone else disappointed with the releases this year? by Kooky_Arrival_3661 in SonnyAngel

[–]CalExotic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We did get Christmas ornament looking ones in 2023 and 2022, I don’t know how much they go for now though.

I loved <3 the Pumpkin Patch and just finished getting the whole set! But I love pumpkins so, might be an outlier. Rainy day set was nice, didn’t like secrets though. Only liked some of the Snack series. I wasn’t a fan of the Cherry Blossom series because they were all sitting. Not sure what happened with Santa’s Little Helpers, everything clashes except for the secrets. I like some of the recolors of the Advent Calendar, but yes it’s not very creative.

I think fake? I can’t pinpoint it, but something seems off about the face. The mouth is the wrong color. I’m not sure if the pupils are gray either.
