It’s been two years since I bought my first Pinky, Sayuri, a PK010 Sumire. To celebrate her first birthday, I set up a Pinky blog for my growing Pinky Street collection.

Sayuri doesn’t seem to be happy on her birthday though.

Crocs. It’s either you hate them or you love ‘em. There’s no middle ground. While some adults look silly with their brightly hued hole-y rubber shoes, there’s no denying that Crocs are cute on little feet. How much cuter would it be if it was Pinky-sized?

Sork, from the Pinky-street.com Forums, was the first (to my knowledge) Pinky collector who has made a Crocs custom for Pinky Street. He showcased his finished products at the forum’s gallery, and many members have expressed interest in the cute Crocs-clad Pinky feet.

He started mass-producing them for collectors willing to pay, instead of having to make it themselves. On his first sale, the Koroko legs were priced rather steeply at 10 euros each. However, he has slashed his prices since then. Even better: Sork has announced that he has finally perfected the sitting Koroko legs! The legs come with a skirt, both of which can be bought painted or unpainted.

I was one of Sork’s first customer. Since he slashed his prices, he gave me one of the first sitting Koroko legs he’s ever made, along with a skirt. Like the standing Koroko leg, the materials are of good quality; it’s actually even tougher than the plastic of the original Pinky St doll.

I’ve already customized one of the standing unpainted Koroko legs I’ve bought, but have neglected to paint the other legs, as well as the sitting legs and the skirt that came with it. Hmm, I think it’s time to break out my acrylics again.

Tohru and Marc takes a break on the steps of one of the oldest building in Coron. This building, part of the Claudio Sandoval Elementary School (Paaralang Elementarya ng Claudio Sandoval), has been standing since the time of the Japanese occupation in the Philippines. There’s also rumors going around that gold can be found underneath the building.

The school was one stop in our mini-walking tour of Coron Town to orient ourselves of our home for the next two days. After going around the town (and meeting the Mayor), we proceeded to climb Mt. Tapyas. Read more about our Coron, Palawan adventures on Just Wandering.

Heinji and I bought a bunch of Pinkies and Pinky-sized accessories with us to our picnic at the La Mesa Ecopark. After our delicious lunch of adobo packed bento style, we set up our dolls for a mini photoshoot.

When the Series 6 Pinkies were due to come out, Vance Project described Mikimiki as Maki’s rival. It’s easy to see why — both look like fashionistas and both have Queen Bee written all over them. They seem to find a common ground though… gossip!

Heinji’s Maki and Mikimiki are seen here sharing this very comfortable and very pink comforter from the Wanju Modern Bedroom set.
