i don't know if this counts as an unpopular opinion but i think the (hi hi puffy amiyumi) world tour dolls are a little underappreciated
ive seen a lot of people in the fashion doll collecting space who have these either rebody them or consider rebodying them because they're "weird" and "gimmicky" (also it seems a lot of more recent HHPAY fans don't like them either which is fair because these are the only toys made for the show based on AND VOICED BY the real life people rather than being based off the characters in the show like 99% of the other merch) but honestly i think they have their good points!
for context (of sorts) and for starters, their hands have magnets on them which allow them to talk + sing when their hands touch or if you touch their hands individually with your finger, which is super cool in general
their packaging is neat because at first glance just seeing the packages on their own they appear "flipped"; however if you connect them together like the image above it makes more sense
their fashions are also very neat i think (very distinct and fun, and the hats with the hair braids are an interesting choice)
the way their arms are posed and the way they did the knee articulation is probably part of why a good few people are "turned off" by them but honestly i don't mind it that much because i guess it kinda adds to the appeal somehow
there's not a lot of footage of them talking either but this and a couple other videos (here - ami's batteries must be dead 'cus i don't hear her speaking? - and here - i really like this footage for some reason for a couple of reasons and i think it's why i'm most interested in Ami's doll - ) was all i could find (i'm thinking of getting them because of course i want to)
also fun fact, i originally considered getting the more widely known Rock Out toys but of course i didn't because they were reportedly only sold in the UK (and also i couldn't find them anywhere when i got into these like a month ago sdfvsxcszx - so i decided to settle for the world tour dolls and now here we are
and fun fact number 2, a few years earlier Takara Tomy released Jenny dolls of them in Japan in the late 90s early 2000s. those are pretty cool too (and articulated!). one of the sets of them appears in their music video for Mother (here).
tldr: the puffy amiyumi world tour dolls are very interesting to my neurodivergent brain at the moment
