Kawaii Collections: The Dynamite Girls
I am an avid fashion doll collector. I started with Asian Barbies several years ago and this love of fashion dolls grew to include dolls from Fashion Royalty, Misaki, Momoko, Tonner and Pullip. I have hundreds of dollies (as I affectionately call them), most on display in my home office with many of my other kawaii collections.
A new line of dolls I began collecting (since they are super cute and have an excellent price) are from Integrity (they do Fashion Royalty dolls and Misaki) called The Dynamite Girls.
These fashion forward dolls look like Harajuku Girls in many of their iterations. The dolls range in price from $30-$45 each (which is incredible for articulated collectible dolls) and are created by illustrator (and now doll designer) David Buttry.
These girls are loaded with personality and I have all of the first wave and second wave and what you will see below are the new girls who I plan to add to the collection. Sometimes it can be difficult to find the entire collection at dealers so I usually look on ebay.

This is Eltin, I love her! I already have her too.

I collect dolls, too! Mine are mostly Fashion Royalty but my daughter has dozens of Momoko dolls and lots of Misaki, too. I think the Dynamite Girls are gorgeous and are a wonderful value, considering that they look remarkably like Misaki. I have to say that I think the most kawaii dolls are Momoko. They are so adorable, both in their faces and their outfits.

spygirlcia – awesome! I love fashion royalty too and I have tons of momokos and misakis since Asian dolls are my faves. I love momoko too – she is super kawaii but I also like pullips – I just got into collecting them. How long have you been collecting dollies? I started with Barbie.

I started with Barbies, too, and so did my daughter; it was several years ago for both of us, though she had Barbies as a little girl. I didn’t like the Fashion Royalty dolls when she first got them but it wasn’t long before I joined her – I love that they are articulated and so easy to pose. My daughter does a wonderful job of dressing her Momoko and Misaki dolls like Harajuku girls, so they are extra kawaii. Pullips are so cute. I have a couple of Riley dolls (one blonde, one Asian) and like to get handmade clothes for them on eBay.
