I saw many women (about 20 up so they aren't girls, right?) carrying these kinds of doll.
Is it cute? I don't think it is. And its price is too costly.
Last Friday, After talking with P'Nok who was a teacher assistance when I studied at a university.
I just knew that:
Every dolls, including Blythe has a name, e.g. Nong Jip, Nong Tawhan, etc;
Owners Know what their dolls like and dislike, e.g. Nong Jip likes cookies, she hates vegetables.

How do they know about that?
When I was a kid, I had a soft big pig doll in my bedroom. I never named it. It was always called "Tukkata Moo" (Pig doll).

Another thing I knew about the Blythe was everything on its body can be changed such as eye balls and head.
I don't know whether or not  it's fun like playing a mini-4wd, but I think they can use that amount of money to buy other necessary things.
