That moment when you first open the box

I had this experience with my girl (especially after waiting 5 years)
she was sooooooooo much more beautiful in person than I imagined and much better than the sales pictures on the VOLKS website

 

Everytime i bring one home from the post office, i am filled with adrenalin.. I cannot wait to get home, run upstairs, grab my 10 year old daughter and we both squeal through every layer until we reach those gorgeous creatures!! I get excited every time

 

When I got Joon (feeple60 Miyu) I was shaking soo bad.. I was so excited and nervous at the same time. When I opened the box and saw her face I couldn't believe how perfect she was. I promise you, the face up picture they have of her on the fairyland website does her ABSOLUTELY no justice.. whatsoever! It's so bad that I was really worried I wouldn't like the face up but, I was so wrong. Her face up is so sparkly and beautiful!!! I just can't get enough of her .

 

XD I remember that when I opened up my first girl's box, there was much squeeing and cooing "OMG SHE'S SO PRETTY!!! OMG HER EARS!!! She's so delicate!!" And then I lifted her up, and immediately blurted out, "Holy shit she's heavy!!!" I wasn't prepared for how SUBSTANTIAL she was, either.

 

I was actually very quiet letting out gasps and playing with my first doll's little hand...It felt so weird to have a doll that had so many joints I didn't know what to do with her first. XD

 

When my first doll (and almost only one) came in I was so jumpy I would rush everything. I couldn't wait to see him! It was like the "I'm so excited I could poop" feeling. Of course though, I didn't

 

When I was waiting for my Isaac to come I was afraid that he wouldn't like me or we might now bond. But When I openned Isaac and saw his face peeking out of his mummy wrappings I instantly fell in love! And then started laughing because my cat was sniffing him and the look on his face was like " oooooohhhhh ggggooooodddd!!! Someone save me! D:" I think I earned his respect and admiration when I rescued him his wrappings.

 

As I was learning about this hobby, before getting a doll, I would see people post box openings on YouTube and see how excited they were. When I opened the box my for my Limhwa Leda I realized just how they felt

Seeing her promo pics just wasn't the same as seeing her "in person". Even without eyes or a wig she was simply stunning. Once I got a body blushing, pedicure/manicure, and jointed hands for her she has become almost life-like.

Subsequent openings are always fun, but there was something special about seeing Leda for the first time

 

When I opened my Pipos Baha and really got to see his sweet little face, feel how well made he is and actually pose him-I knew he was for me and he would soon have company!

 

I always get super excited and sometimes emotional when I open a new doll ><! I was really curious the first time I opened a doll box and was sort of awe-struck at receiving and handling my first doll. 8 dolls and several heads later I still get just as ridiculously excited at receiving a new one. It's a wonderful, wonderful feeling~

 

i cant wait for this feeling next week!!! i see so many box opening videos and the owners look so excited!!

 

i had that type of feeling, I only have one doll, and when i opened her i was soooo excited and was like she is sooo much more beautiful than what i thought, i was scared that i wouldnt like her once i got her cos i had never seen a bjd in real life before. But she was just so beautiful and tiny, like i knew she was going to be tiny, but it was just so adorable and tiny and cute and just ahh i want another doll

 

Well when I first opened my doll, I felt this sort of special psyche connection with her. Since then, I've taken her everywhere and gone through everything with her. She's my best friend.

 

I felt like that when I got my first doll and since then it gets pretty depressing if I DON'T get that feeling opening a doll box..

 

I kept going "Aww so cute." XD;; He is cute.

 

When I opened my box to see Josaphine( my Doll Leave) I was scared I was going to break her, since I have never had one before. She was also super bigger then I originally thought. So I was in total shock

 

Don't you just love it when your soooo excited to open up that brand new doll box? Some companies are so good at their box presentation like Leekeworld. They do a really good job at wrapping the box with that paper doily/lace thing and ribbon. Then you see the doll inside and you just know it was worth all the money and the long wait.

 

Every time box opening for me very exciting moment. And always I enjoy very much. Box contents always appear much better than I imagined. It's very intresting.

 

There seems to be something magical about box openings. I always enjoy them, even if I wind up rehoming the doll later. I will say though that my two favorite girls really overwhelmed me when I first got them, especially my first doll (Littlefee Ante). She was so perfect, I just couldn't believe I finally had her! Dolls in person are always so much more breathtaking than even the most flattering photographs.

 

Yes! I definitely have that kind of moment! I always get so giddy and shaky with excitement when I open a doll box . When I finally open it and see the doll for the first time in person, it's like a surreal moment~.
