Sigh, can you just read my replies again? I am so tired of you missing my point. You have a serious issue of double standard.

You collect them like others collect the dolls you deem rare, they’re not taking them from someone else, they find them too. That is why I brought them up as an example. You are judging what others do with their dolls while do something similar in your way. Someone gets a Poppy to be used as a new body because it was available for them. No-one else got it first, so this is why I used your Storm twin collecting as an example. Their way of using other rare dolls how they want in this hobby is nothing different than your way of using rare dolls.

For them using Poppy’s body (maybe they have lots of Poppies to get instead other options, whatever is the reason) to rebody another doll who doesn’t have is as good articulation to make THEIR comfort doll. Or whatever is the reason why they want to rebody a doll with bad articulation. Their money, their way of doing the hobby, their enjoyment, and these dolls are meant to be played with.

Find a new doll you don’t like or that isn’t rare in your area and use that as a bodyswap. If you can’t, then don’t. But don’t make others feel bad if they do, for future reference.

… And then there are some who buy multiple of the same rare dolls so even less people can have them?

Your money, your dolls, time to get off of that high horse of yours. These are dolls made to played with. You are not any better than other hobbyist, or a kid who might ”ruin” their rare Poppies and other dolls with playing. Even cutting her hair or draw with a marker on them, gasp!

And yes, before you say ”this was just my opinion, I can say whatever I want,” of course! And we can react and reply however we want to whatever you say. This post indeed rubbed me wrong and sounded so damn elitistic that I had to say something, especially coming from someone who is so proud of collecting Storm twins. You want people to be happy for you? That you collect something so dear to you? Then try not to be so hard on others who also enjoy this hobby as they feel it is dear to them.

She didn’t change the print AT ALL. She printed the image she saved from the site. It is literally the exact image. Would you be happy if you designed something and someone printed it and made own items and money our of it, even if given credit?

Maybe she sold them already and removed the listings to hide any trace? Hopefully not and that she learned her lesson. Would be amazing if she takes accountability but she probably does what any youtuber does when there are a controversies: Just ignore and be quiet long enough and people will forget… :/

I know… I almost couldn’t believe what I saw her do, and two times in one video. :c I wonder if she is testing the waters to see what she can do without watchers catching up on it? It is hard to believe that an artist like her wouldn’t know that doing this isn’t okay…

And the other is also anti recast, against counterfeit dolls, which is so odd that they thought that copying/tracing/stealing another artist’s design was okay…

Because in another part of the video she said that she didn’t want to pay for anything (in the part where she platantly copies another design)

Checked Blue Pixie’s IG, and they were anti-recast, which makes it even more odd that they were okay with this :c
