| Customer Reviews: It's Christmas in October! October 10, 2008 M. C. (western Oregon) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
The free shipping from Amazon always seemed fast to me, until I had to wait for my darling Jun to arrive! :) Overall, I'm very pleased with her. She seems sturdy, her clothing and accessories are of average quality. She's about the same size as the 21 cm Obitsu or Volks dolls. They're all sharing clothes right now at my house. Her skin tone is a little odd--I'm guessing they're trying to reproduce a Korean skintone, since she's supposed to be from South Korea. My son is Korean, so I can say it's similar, but no where near as beautiful as the real thing. Her eyes are violet. Her hair is crunchy and over sprayed. She can't sit quite right, due to hips which don't rotate naturally. But with her cute rainboots, she can stand alone without a stand. She's cool enough for this adult collector and yet sturdy enough for ages 6 and up to play with.
really cute ball jointed smaller doll February 23, 2010 Julia Bauer (Colorado) the hands and joints are removable and the doll is smaller sized so it is not for younger buyers but is really cute and nicely made variety of clothing and hair acessories. poster of your doll comes with it. great beginning ball jointed collector item. hair is rooted not a removable wig. joints are not hidden like barbie legs but more like an art mannequin. small size makes finding more clothes an issue. standable! rooted lashes and quality doll eyes. very cute. buy all 4 types and sets!I Suggest not combing out hair to keep curls.
Great doll - fun and different December 27, 2009 A. J. 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The Juku Couture dolls are quite different than the standard barbie dolls - they are a bit shorter (barely comes up to a barbie's chest) and therefore don't fit into all the barbie clothes out there. But they do fit into Bratz or TinkerBell fashion doll sized clothes and that gives a lot of options. But each Juku couture doll comes with so many little pieces of clothing that it really is easy to mix and match and get all kinds of interesting looks.
Jun is a bit unique from the other Juku dolls - her ringlets are stiff and not really brushable. But she also has the most interesting and exotic outfits. And the hair accessories that come with all the dolls seem to work much better with her stiffer hair.
The really neat thing about the Juku dolls is the amazing posability of them. They can do so many poses and stand on their own just fine. I've put Jun into head stands, had her sitting on various objects, even hanging like a monkey from a shelf - just for fun. For that reason, I give her much higher marks than most dolls.
I really like that she looks like a teenager - the clothes fit the personality well. I've had a chance to buy all the dolls and all the extra outfits and enjoy putting the different variations on her. June is my favorite of the line since her looks are so very similar to the very expensive high-end Japanese dolls that cost $200+.
There's a new version of this doll in Target for their second year and the improvements made are very good. I'd recommend getting the newer version of this doll over the premier edition for that reason. The newer dolls aren't as 'glassy eyed' and their expressions not as unrealistic.
