    And do you still have it?

    Mine was a Custom House Bisou that I bought to see the color of the resin. But they are so cute and tiny that I still have her! Of course she's always half dressed because I am always borrowing her clothes or shoes or wig for another doll! Shocked

    My first BJD was Goth Alice, a 12" resin BJD from Goodreau. I wish I had started out with something cheaper--since I think that doll has spoiled me! I still have her and love her to pieces!

    Hi Judy and Vicki Wink

    To get back on subject, my first was Claude, a DZ Bb Jing boy in the old ns.
    He was not the first to arrive, but the first I owned, and now I think he owns me *lol*
    I had been admiring, and dreaming of, bjds for years by the time he arrived, and I had to have more. Now I do Very Happy

    Berdine Creedy's Melodi! I fell pot-over-teakettle in love with her the first time I saw a photo of her, and the reality was even better. She's the doll I've wanted my entire life, I just didn't know it until I saw her!

    My first ball jointed doll is my CHOA basic girl (Numi). I am so amazed that I was able to get her and wish Custom House were doing more of the SD sized dolls. Her resin is awesomely smooth. Unfortunately I don't think they sealed her face paint to well as it is fading and someday she will have to make a visit to a spa for a new face up.

    I do have a OT question how do I post pictures to this forum? Can't figure this out....Lynne

    I can see why you love your Melodi - I love mine too! Such a sweet face!

    My first doll was Rumor.. then I had to get Secret.. then found an Innuendo. So far, that is all I have... but am eyeing the Creedys and Pukis and a few (dozen?) others! lol Don't I wish money grew on trees????

    I am totally NEW to BJDs.. been collecting all sorts of other dolls over the years (the last year I collected lots of Bleuette stuff). I didn't even know what SD and MSD stood for and DOA never gave me any help when I asked.. so I didn't go back. Am happy Kim put this up for us who love the Goodreaus and Creedys!!! WAY TO GO KIM!!!

    My first was Goodreau vinyl Innuendo...last year in July....I technicallly still have her, but this past week - literally - I purchased another as mine was purchased as basic version in the box new and all BUT she had the smaller 1st edition feet. This always bothered me and I even wanted to see if there was some way to replace her feet but it wasn't to be, so I just bought was of the few remaining School Daze (wish I'd done that in the 1st place, but remember this was my first so I was hesitant) and she will be assimilated into her character as Giselle and I will be selling the smaller footed version shortly at a fair price. I wasn't sure if I could do this, but the face paint is the same and she looks the same (thankfully - LOL), so I'm able to get over the emotional aspect of it. I love all my Goodreau vinyl dolls I love you as these dolls I'm able to share with my 8 yr old daughter.

    My first BJD was Angelregion Dana. I had been looking at lots of BJDs online for several years, but needed to see one in person before buying. When we were on our house-hunting trip, one of the first things I did was go to DDE and pick one out!. After that... well... I said "only 1" but it was futile. She was quickily followed by Dollzone Shoyu and then several others. (I've lost count).
    I do not still have Dana - I traded her for a ws Ami who I love even more.

    My first BJD...well, Vicki sent me 2 at the same time. Vinyl Secret now known as Kate and a Domuya Bobo now known as Lucy. I still have them both but am contemplating re-homing Lucy. Kate will stay with me always. Here she is in a picture taken not long after she arrived here. She had already gotten her beautiful face up from Leah.

    My first bjd was Happy Doll Elf Meadow, renamed Mabel. I still have her. I have tried every which way to copy her photo into this post. If anyone knows how, please tell me.

    Cathy,

    I had trouble with the photo thing, too. You need to use Photo Bucket or some such account. Then copy and paste the Image code. Hope that helps!
