I miss the dolls too, but also:
Enthusiastic doll hunting
Enthusiastic doll hunting with with frands
The exercise I got from doll hunting
The bonding over doll hunting T_T
The excitement over teasers and leaks
The excitement of finding a doll you’ve been hunting for
Finding new ones and seeing all the little details up close
Having new lines come out and getting ideas for photos and art and memes
The old animated series
The forgotten characters
The movies
The creativity of the old design team
I still walk down that aisle every single time. I glance over at the handful of dollar store trash items on the shelf and keep moving. I've no idea why I continue to torture myself.
