Iplehouse has finally released the first two dolls in their brand new KID line. The new KIDs are 35 cm tall and represent children halfway between their JIDs (young teens) and BIDs (very young children). It's a size not often seen in the BJD world. Iplehouse had earlier said there was going to be four different sculpts, but they've released just two for now - Lonnie and Joy. Both are very nice, and as usual it's certain skintones that speak to me. I like Lonnie in peach-gold and Joy in Real skin. The two new KIDs have been released as Limited Edition available for pre-order until the beginning of September, but I'd rather wait to see the other two before deciding. Hopefully they will be released before the ordering deadline.

The new KIDs really speak to me, too. If my wallet doth not protest too much, I want Lonnie as both a girl and a boy. I see in them a family resemblance to nYID Bianca and JID Kassia.

I agree - Lonnie looks like Kassia's little sister. I'd love to get Kassia and Lonnie in peach-gold, and Joy in real skin. Someday. And here I thought I should stop getting any more dolls. Like that's ever going to happen!

I'd love to get both Kassia and Lonnie, but for now I'm waiting to see the next two KIDs. I'm especially hoping for a nice Asian sculpt that can be a sister to my Byuri and Asa.

I hope to get both JID Asa and SID Asa (in CH system) some day. My BJD's hobby began when i saw EID Asa... I really do love your beautiful Asa's photo! And what skin do you prefere? As for me, i like iplehouse's normalskin...

I have both JID and SID Asa, and they both are Real Skin. All but one of my Iplehouse dolls are real skin. I have just one normal skin, and I find it very pale in photos. I'm considering getting Kassia and Lonnie in the new peach-gold, as I prefer the way they look in normal skin, but am not sure I want any more in that pale resin colour. Comments are closed.
