So a couple months ago, that Amy casually mentioned something about some little cupid dolls from KidRobot. It must have gotten filed away in my brain, because I noticed boxes of them in Japan and picked up a few. They come in different series and in blind boxes (i.e., there are numerous designs in a series, but you can’t tell which design you are getting until you open the box). I gave one of the Christmas ones to Amy and kept one. Okay, that’s not really true. After I opened my Christmas one, I decided I needed to keep one of the fruit head series that I bought. So I opened that box and then decided I needed to keep the second fruit head one I got.
Gaaaak! They are incredible. I *need* some for Christmas decorations…
Sometimes I go by this store (SF one) and last time there was a line going out the store! There must have been a new delivery of things. If you ever come to SF I’d be happy to show you this place and Haight St and other fun things here (Japan town!, fabric 🙂 Very cute heads!
They’re weirdly naked, considering the relatively elaborate headgear. And a little more anatomically correct than cupid dolls need to be, in my opinion.
But I love the fruit heads despite the nakedness.
did you just say “widdle”??
I’ll bet Deedle thinks those look delicious.
do they really come with a little penis? rotfl!
Interesting that cupey dolls are making a comeback after so many decades, but then they are cute. These look like a cross between cupey dolls and Teletubbies. Ha!
dude-you are so lame for posting this before I got my order in at kid robot!
Wow, they’re so…’lifelike’ if you know what I mean. 😉
Cute until you look at the dangling bits!!
Those are so cute!!!! I started collecting a few toys when I bought a few of those blind boxes in Japan 3 years ago. I was hooked after opening my first one!
I have never noticed these before. where oh where can I get them??????
I love these! Have you seen the animal ones? They’re AWESOME.
