Juku Couture 9" Fashion Dolls Jun Review

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.

Juku Couture 9" Fashion Dolls Series No. 1 Launch Collection Audrina Review

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.
Audrina is designed to be preppy and has a blazer as well as a brightly patterned split tartan skirt. Underneath you'll find tights, socks, a white pretty shirt, and hair extensions to add some color. Audrina can be fun to dress up wildly with Jun's clothes or go arty with Kana's. Behind Jun, she's my favorite of the set. She also received a makeover after the launch version and the second version (now on sale in places like Target) gives her a more natural look and a little better quality clothing.
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 Juku Couture dolls into head stands, sitting on various objects, even hanging like a monkey from a shelf - just for fun. For that reason, I give the Juku dolls 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 these dolls. Jun is my favorite of the line since her looks are so very similar to the very expensive high-end Japanese dolls that cost $200+. And although these dolls don't fit barbie sized doll clothes, they come with so many options with their wardobes that it would be hard to get bored of them. The whole point is to layer everything.
