Wow! That’s amazing! You have found 11 Doll Love dolls since they closed? That’s so awesome!! Share some photos when you get a chance. (No pressure.)
As soon as I figure out how to share photos, I definitely will! I've been on this forum since 2014 and I'm still only about as tech-savvy as unsliced bread . I do need to make doll profiles for them one of these days - that kind of photo I have figured out.
LOL! Yeah, I’m a techno-peasant. Every time Photobucket changes something on their site, I’m thrown for a loop. Here’s some spam of the lovely YouYou. I love this doll so much!
I have this outfit set (ruffle bloomers)! I was able to find it second-hand. YouYou is so sweet! Do you happen to know why they chose to list YouYou as 'Grapefruit' in some places? Although, 'Sleepy Grapefruit' is a really cute name.
Kitty, that outfit is so CUTE! I was planning to order the Half-closed-eyes YouYou in that same outfit when I was informed by Alice’s Collection that Doll Love was gone. *cries* Actually, I think the only seller I ever saw advertise YouYou as “Grapefruit” was a bjd doll store called Mint on Card. (I could be wrong.) But, MOC was very well known and popular, back in the day. I never knew the rationale behind that differentiation. But, clearly, it’s just a variation of YouYou. They had normal resin colored YouYou as YouYou. The white resin version was listed as Grapefruit. Go figure. Sleepy Grapefruit is a cute name.
It is odd. On BJD Collectasy she is also listed as YouYou 2 or Grapefruit - depending on the post. It does seem that only the v. 2 is ever listed as Grapefruit though. I hope you can find the outfit as well as your Sleepy Grapefruit very soon!
I bought a YoYo years ago and sold her and was sad so then I got a new one I’ve had her many years now so it’s about time I post her! ❤️
YAY! Mydaffer, she is so precious! I'm so happy you were able to find her again and so glad that you posted her picture. YouYou is one of my absolute favorite sculpts. I'm still so sad Doll Love discontinued all their sculpts and closed their doors. I know they opened again as a new company, but the whole aesthetic changed. It just wasn't the same anymore. Again, love your YouYou with the pink hair.
@Rabbit-moon Thank you so much! I’m so happy I bought her, I was wondering if they sold them anymore, I’d get more if they were! Awe, definitely sad hearing they shut down. My first I posted here Jan, 2012 lol, there is no picture anymore but the post is still there. I have and had a lot of yosd and after posing YouYou yesterday I have to say, she is the best and really a very underrated doll. Her strings are still tight and she holds a pose nicely and oh my goodness (just look at that face) she’s so adorable!
Oh my goodness, these are yours ! You have the cutest pair and those outfits are so adorable!! I’m serious, these dolls are better then some of the more expensive dolls, definitely treasures! ❤️
LOL! Mydaffer, I wish those two in the picture belonged to me. I was just spamming a company photo for nostalgia. (And wishing they were mine.). The photo below is my little crew: (Left: YouYou in pink resin. Center: Ke boy in normal resin. Right: YouYou in white resin.) And, I agree with you, these little Doll Love dollies are so great. I just love them! Thanks again for posting! It was awesome to share some fangirling with another Doll Love admirer.
Oh, ha ha, I just read the bottom part of the post, got side tracked with the cuteness. Awe you’re so lucky, two YouYou, no way, they are so adorable! I love them, we need to post them more often, I really couldn’t live without mine! Glad you like her! Ke is adorable too!!!!
