Letter from the Editor

The first thing that usually strikes people when meeting a BJD "in the resin" is their size and weight. Since most people encounter their first BJDs online they are often surprised when they actually get to hold one. They are not your typical doll which of course all BJD owners will tell you. This month we are featuring some very unique BJDs even for the BJD world. The dolls of Bishonen house are spectacular, bigger than life boys created by the wonderful Don. At the other end of the size scale we have tiny BJDs in the Spotlight. We're so happy to welcome Anika's tiny family into the Dollicieux fold. Tiny BJDs are amazing creations; all the beauty of their larger cousins but pocket sized for easy travel. There really is a BJD for everyone.

P.S. Next month is our one year anniversary issue. We're very excited about our upcoming celebration. The issue will be a bit late to accommodate some of our plans but we hope you will enjoy what we have in store.
