Little do the girls know Mr.Wataru is already taken (by Mr. R. Wataru!).
Clothes for Brian.
Hope you like them! ;)
As you see, the shirt is a little looser than the other one, also the back is a tad too big on Blythe, Wataru fits better with his broad shoulders. ;)
This great looking Audi R8 GT 1st generation was on display at the 2025 StoneGate Motorplaza car show held in Bucyrus Kansas.
A sewing machine, a table and some nice vintage fabrics.
I'm happy to have a sewing buddy in the house. ^^
He looks so concentraded.
You can tell he knows what he's doing by the iron on the desk. ;)
Made my first Wataru suit ever!
I'm so happy the first tryout turned out this good!
Of course, many things could use some adjustments but still a very nice fit. Also.... the pockets work!! They are a little big, but still. I used real life pockets technique, only that I didn't add any inside pocket lining, so I don't recommend keeping important things inside. ^^
This one is for Tibi's pimp boy. Rest of the set to be finished!
Finally a picture of all my vintage Licca!!
Goro (far right) and little Kurumi (far left) are the new members of the gang. They arrived 2 weeks ago but didn't have time to take pics yet.
Now we only need a vintage Izumi!! <3
If you know anyone out there let me know! ;)
How did they become so many so fast??
Watch out for the Licca Fever! O_O
(I think Molly, on the left, is surprised -and affraid- to see so many new roomies ^^)
Advice needed!
Should I sew the dress this long or a little shorter? I will loose the little bunka shoes in the print but I think it will look more like the original doll.
What do you think?
Note to myself, Bonnet front part must be widther next time.

Indiana Northeastern with an outbound grain train from the Anderson in Reading Michigan.. I remember TREES growing in the gauge of the rails here once upon a time... taken 1/25/17 just north of Steubenville IN at the 700 S. road crossing IN #3084, #1602 & #2185 will deliver this train the NS Yard located in Montpelier OH where NS Crew's will take it from there.
Say hello to the newest additions to the Orangey House! Somehow in one short month I managed to gather each... one... of these dolls. *Cough!* When I order from Japan I like to buy everything I want at once, so many of these girls are the top dolls that I've wanted for years! You can say I went crazy, lol. *Ahermcough!*
SO, there is Pleats Please Licca in the center. I never thought I would own her! Her widow's peak and braided buns could not be cuter. Her original price would make you choke: 26 500 yen (Around $275). After much searching, I found her for much less so I grabbed her!
On the right of her is Yokohama Akai Kutsu Licca, I think she is based off of a nursery rhyme about red shoes. I've needed this doll for a long time but her price is often very high. In fact, I didn't exactly get her for cheap, but a few weeks after I purchased her I saw another sell for over $200, so I did feel lucky, haha.
On the other side of Pleats Please is Anna Sui Licca! Another Licca I've been looking for. I found her quite cheap, so I actually ended up buying two... of her... :P. The first I bought did not come with the purse or necklace, then after that I found a listing with the doll and necklace, so I bought it.
The rest are randomly gathered, many of them are from one lot I found with several dolls (including the Jennys, etc).
Oh yes, and then there is Pichi Pichi Licca! I forgot to photograph her with the others so I 'Shopped her picture in. For her auction, I felt like everything was working against the seller, which meant more chances for me! First of all, I'm pretty sure she was only listed for 9 or 12 hours. The seller did not describe or name her, and the pictures weren't that revealing. So I did manage to win her for less than half price of what she goes for (one other person bid against me). She has one stain on her arm that I need to figure out how to remove. And the plastic on her butt is scratched, :P, but other than that, she is in great shape!
As per custom, I will be selling the 4th gen Licca bodies in a while.

So, these are the new dollies, welcome to them! :P :P
Like a retired person with an easy side job after retirement, BNSF #1653 sits at Malden, Indiana at the end of the stub track for the elevator. The former C&O line that the elevator serves also stubs here as well. It's difficult to drive by it and not stop to take a photo, considering how easy it is.
BNSF rebuilt GP9u #1653 was built by EMD as ATSF GP9 #725 in May of 1956. This locomotive is probably one of the oldest in-service diesels around.

These are Kin-san (my girl) & Gin-san (Yuki's girl) twin Bunka Doll sets.
It's a present for Yuki for being so nice and allow me adopt little Kin-san! <3
They took me a while but I'm very happy with the result. ^_^ KIn-san is wearing her own set and Shira helped as a model for Gin-san's one.
After making a lovely trade with someone, I acquired this Full Action M Flection body. I have gotten a little desperate for more movement in PN bodies and was even considering buying an Obitsu or so, but since I'm more attached to the Azone shape I am so glad they've come out with the Full Actions!
I really like the shape of the M, though it is tall, definitely gives the doll a more grown up feel just for the height.
In the top two photos are the M Full Action with a regular S Flection, and in the bottom photo I put the regular S Flection's legs onto the M Full Action's body, making her very, very similar in height to the S body.
Still waiting for the Full Action S bodies to come out, I'd love to replace my current Flections :P
Original vintage Licca friend Kurumi fashion. Made by Takara. Packaging is discolored do to age and water damage.
Ha, I came across a rare classic on the wild while riding the streetcar yesterday. I hopped off right away to make a few pics.
Thanks for Rob van Kan, who identified the car for me: 1964 General Motors Buick Riviera.
BR 'Western' class diesel-hydraulic D1068 'Western Reliance' heading freight towards Newton Abbot along the Dawlish sea wall on 30th March 1964. Another Easter week holiday for us in Dawlish; most trains now diesel-powered.
