About Blythe Dolls


We will sell Blythe line of dolls. Currently, as far as I know, we are the only one who sells fashion dolls like Blythe in Malaysia Region.

Note: We no longer sell Blythe dolls as our supplier don't have them in stock anymore. This page will be kept on for informational use.
WHAT IS BLYTHE?
Manufactured by Kenner in 1972, the original Blythe (now known as "vintage") was produced for only one year and then was retired because of poor sales.
For 28 years, Blythe was a curiosity that only doll collectors were interested in.
Then, in late 2000, she made her comeback in Japan when CWC produced a charming TV commercial for Parco department store starring Blythe. After the TV spotlight she became an overnight sensation in Japan and Asia. In June 2001, to meet the popular demand of this new Blythe fanbase, CWC produced an 11 inch neo-Blythe doll, Parco Limited Edition, with the permission of Hasbro and the manufacturing help of Takara. Since that launch, 62 and still counting! editions of neo-Blythe dolls have been produced. A year later, a 4 1/2 inch version of the Neo-Blythe was invented, titled "Petite Blythe" and affectionately called "Pucci". By the spring of 2006, there have been 100 and still counting! editions of the Petite Blythe doll produced. Nowadays, Blythe's photogenic style can also be found gracing countless accessories and stationary goods the world over.

Blythe and its owners.





Cool. This grandma is actually the original designer of Blythe in 1972 [Allison Katzman].


She still makes dolls even today.



FASHION DOLL? IS IT POSE-ABLE?
Yes, Blythe is a fashion doll and of course it's pose-able. You can move its arm, leg, head and even its eyes. Similar to Barbie dolls, you can change their clothes and hair styles. Please note that you can't change their eyes and hair since they are attached to the head. However you can pull out its head and swap the body with other dolls like Obitsu body.

HOW MUCH IS THIS BLYTHE?
Approximately from RM300 to RM400. Price does not includes shipping cost. All Blythe dolls come with its own accessories and clothes.

DAMN, IT'S EXPENSIVE FOR A BIG HEAD.
Not really that expensive compared to Dollfie and Obitsu dolls. Besides it's from Japan, and everything from Japan is cute.

DO YOU SELL ITS ACCESSORIES AND CLOTHES?
No, unfortunately we don't have any contact with anyone who make clothes and accessories for Blythe dolls. BUT Blythe doll body size is the same size as other 30cm manufacturer's dolls such as Momoko, Obitsu, Pullip, Rica and Jenny. So you can exchange their clothes and accessories with Blythe dolls.
